A depressingly real read. We love touring and can’t wait to play shows this summer, but even breaking even from what may look like a decent run of dates is unlikely. Essentially, bands who aren’t already rich are being priced out of this business.

@Big_Joanie I'd be happy to pay for some streamed shows. The costs of that could be significantly less. NOT remotely the same. But I'd be able to see some bands that I wouldn't see otherwise. Potential performance fun & low cost post event access helps recoup $ too.
@Big_Joanie Not much better in the States either. Sad state of affairs.
@Big_Joanie This is so sad. Seeing music live has become really important to me over the last couple of years and I love it. As someone not in the industry I just don't understand how it functions these days if bands don't make money touring or from record sales :(
