It's basically the touring version of "catering to your stockholders and turning a profit at all costs vs doing the right thing"...or it's just laziness since it goes against the tendencies that made this band big.
I can understand that POV from Dave, and its probably correct. But that just confirms my point of how much it sucks to have the leader of the band you care most about just not give a shit about you, when youre what helped build them up to where they are.
