I believe this is it. Smaller venues, less money available for top accomodations, perhaps no private jet. This tour is likely "break even" at best for Lindsey and Christine from a financial perspective. I recall Lindsey saying some of his previous solo tours actually cost him money. Mick and John may have been offered a lesser financial deal to tour but turned it down.

Or it could have been that Mick and John understand that this is Christine and Lindsey's time to be in the spotlight and did not want to distract from their creative endeavor. In any case, I think this album and tour are a WIN for Lindsey and Christine fans, and for music lovers in general.
