As a person who works in music, I say: excellent analogy.
The only change I would make would be to say that with the profit from the show, the band(s) will be able to invest in making more appearances and in having a national tour....but then, when the profit is destroyed, oops...there goes those plans.
I have never seen a politician with so much promise, immolate himself in the shortest amount of time ever. Even McCain and Graham took years. Someone in his staff better seek treatment for him, or themselves, quickly.
