   My understanding is that Don's solo tour yielded a very small paycheck.  i   
   would guess that teaming with MM is a way to spread the love, get a few more   
   tickets sold (cross pollination), and actually make enough so that they can   
   tour again.  If that's the case they can tour with Abba and I'll live with   
   it.   
      
   And I agree, MM is an integral part of their history, you can pick him out   
   on so many songs.  He's cool with me.  I like his interview on the Aja DVD   
   where he talks about how precise his vocals had to be to please the boys.
