I find this #1 reason to be more than myopic. The author makes it sound like every band is trying to make it to the “big time”. There are plenty of musicians who maintain a day job and keep the band experience going throughout life with no intent whatsoever of “making it big”. Then there are the musicians who have made a career of making music outside of being in a fixed band. Plenty of bands are dedicated to making music (original or covers) and having fun and making money without the mentality that the “#1” reason in the article suggests… There’s just so much wrong with #1, but I’ll shut up now…
