Definitely not of interest to me, just a thought on that DMB has been successful enough to turn down massive potential earnings. So many things are more important than money, but having earned a ton certainly makes it easier to enjoy all of those other things.
One of my favorite interview clips from 2018 was the 60 minutes or Sunday Morning interview when the interviewer points out that the band had given/donated $40 million to charity and Dave does a double take of “WHAT!” As he turns around as if looking for someone to yell at.
More than the money we know LOVES to play. By all accounts 2017 was supposed to be a year off for DMB w/ the D&T tour just the short European run. Dave then decided to do more & they added 18 U.S. dates. Not something they had to do, but Dave wanted to and so he did. Made himself, Tim, & the crew some extra scratch in the process…but it really seems that D&T brought him a ton of joy that year.
