Why wouldn't you want Live to get back together?, Other side of the coin. Options

I know that many of us would like to see Live get back together in some form, but I'm curious as to why some of us don't. Seeing all sides of the issue is always a good thing, and it would be interesting to see the responses.

I've read that when touring, mid-level rock bands and artists actually struggle to break even and sometimes even end up paying out of pocket. I'm convinced that's why LIVE stopped touring w/ Shinn. Even though their hearts are truly in what they do, making albums & touring is their livelihood & has been since they were fresh out of high school. Low level, mid-level, even top level-- why do you think a many bands split/break up over the finances? Um, it's cause it's quite important. -"Lead singer bonus" sound familiar? Look at top-level AC/DC... you can't tell me they replaced Brian Johnson with Axl Rose (Who by the way, looks ridiculous up there on stage in a wheelchair--Hey, it's Timmy from Southpark!) to finish this tour just for the fans' sakes. No, it's about money too.
