I know they, especially Mick, love to perform but at that point in their life, maybe they didn’t feel it was worth it to travel by bus and disrupt their life for 6 months or whatever and have little money to show for it. I wouldn’t blame them.

I figured it was about the money, too. They lost money with the Time band tours, so I assumed they didn’t want to go there again.
