touring is different today than in 1968, when they drove trucks, set up gear, like Jethro Tull, early Cream. FM basically worked for nothing then. that was rock bottom, with 3-4 people in a hotel room.
the band today is trained like racehorses. when they go on the road they click into all disciplines. they have their own plane. they don't stay up all night drinking.
mick and lindsey now have families on the road. "it's like a circus" he says - with kids and animals. mick has two older daughters, and two little ones whom "dad" gets to read stories to. nowadays they (the band ?) go see art museums and things.
