I don't see why that would be. I'll bet that what's left after they pay their managers cut, the lighting & sound company, the roadies, the mini-Mac'ers, and all the other palms they need to grease on a show-by-show basis, they split evenly.

Stevie & Lindsey would get more income from recordings, being the remaining songwriters in the band, getting not only artist royalties, but also songwriting and publishing (depending on what percentage of the publishing rights of their songs they kept)

Live gigs is where the non-songwriting members of the/any band make most of their money.
