Agreed.
From my own point of view I would just exercise a word of caution.
In my experience on bigger tours, it was the corporations who were seeking to get involved.
The bands thought
Hey, great. We can afford a few extra crew now, or half a dozen lazers, or a slightly bigger stage.
Once the tables are turned and bands need sponsorship to even put on the show, then I think you'll see corporate business exercising a lot more control.
