honestly takes some guts to walk away from a tour after sticking with someone that long

Depends on how good their revenue split is. Their streaming numbers don't seem outstanding but I'm inclined to agree that they're probably doing fine. *I guess the hivemind doesn't think so. Or maybe its just smoothbrains reacting negatively to anything that challenges the groupthink.

Yeah but like, I reckon they still book gigs. A guy who quits his nine to five like this ends up homeless in a couple of months. I'm sure the band has plenty of fans to tank this particular gig being dropped.

You’re right - people are downvoting out of emotion, not logic. Much easier to decline a gig when you’re a gig worker vs quit a salaried career with attached benefits.

And unlike the other artists potentially walking away from their career as they know it.
