One of the big reasons many artists still sell records is because they tour small venues and build up loyal followings. Stevie already has one, but she could build another one if she tried and it could result in more record sales.

Absolutely. It's the same venues every freaking year. There are other states than Jersey, PA, Florida, and CA.
