This is a very interesting question, I don't have the answer but I am curious as well. If you think about it, they tour a great deal in Canada which means big venues...and a better chance of big bucks. But god love 'em, the little ass venues they play in the states probably don't pay much at all. Touring costs a great deal when you look into the publicity, crew members, tour buses, etc. They must have a nice cushion but probably no where near as to what they deserve. Thank god the hip are loyal to their fans and travel far and wide to please us!
