I disagree somewhat with this statement, because Heart has had (I believe anyway) several long breaks between touring schedules. Any time you take a band away from the public for a few years, you're going to have a much more successful tour. We all want to hear what we miss. Journey has never went away since Augeri, and they've played so many damn tours and venues that honestly...I've become tired of seeing them. They'll have to put out a new album at this point to get me interested.
Heart still retains the main draw of the band which is Anne and Nancy of course, AND they're the original singers. I'm telling you...if Journey had a 3 or 4 year break and THEN came out with an album like Revalation, I think they would have some great ticket sales. JMHO.
