Bad Lieutenant hardly seemed to be a financial success, not helped by tour issues either. The novelty will have worn off for a second album. And Bernard promoted BL as hard as he could. Is a second album/tour financially viable?
Issues such as making music vs touring are things that other musicians deal with too...not just BL.
Surely, people say fewer amounts of money are made with music these days. But musicians not doing anything, just sitting at home in a retirement situation isn't going make anything better.
If Bernard and his friends (or any other band/musician) has
the ability to make music, the passion and willingness (regardless of their financial situation), then don't they have the right to make music if they want to? I'm sure the members themselves are much more aware of the money issues than anyone else.
