I think it’s more complex than that. Whatever the fallout was, dates were likely already booked, so it was a matter of which situation loses the less money. Not just for the band, but also for the promoters who book the shows.
Make no mistake, Mick understands that this won’t be as big a tour without the full classic lineup, regardless of the pedigree of the current lineup. Mike Campbell and Neil Finn will certainly make up for some of the loss of Lindsey fans and fans of just that lineup in a way that Billy Burnette and Rick Vito couldn’t, but it will still be less profitable than with the full lineup.
