Yup. They always seem to find somebody who appreciates their artistic expression and is willing to fund it, which's why they're starving artists, not starved to death artists ;)

I live next to a park. Who ever thought to spend money on parks. How do they not get their funding cut? I don't know, these things don't follow cold logic - some people just really want to have parks and find a way.

Music venues are like parks, nobody makes money but they just seem to get willed into existence - some things are beyond micro economics.
