Even if i agree with a lot of your statements here i have to disagree on this one. Well, maybe...i'm not sure...let's see what you think about it:
I know there were (and are) bands who lived from the revenue of concert tickets and the merchandise sales in those concerts. (Ramones for example)
Authors can (under certain circumstances) get paid by publishers for book readings*. Isn't this compareable to the sales of concert tickets?
*book readings: i hope this is the right term, i mean when one or more authors do read in front of audience
