Dead-Air made a few fair points, but I wasn't arguing that it isn't a "job." It most definitely is. Anyone who I have known who was a musician exclusively worked harder than most people I know who have straight jobs. In this regard I am sure the Dresden Dolls are no exception.
I was just saying that they could be making a better living if they cut down on some overhead. They could even do OK hiring a friend as a driver for them; three people can fit in a nice van quite easily, and with the money they save from not renting a tour bus, they could buy and convert a nice van. They could even get a Westfalia-style VW van with a trailer and still be able to sleep and cook in their vehicle.
