Do Darryl and Steve get the same amount of money?

No disrespect intended. I was wondering how the band’s money is divided now that Charlie has died. How was the money for the 2021 US tour divided? How will it be done for the Sixty Tour? Do Darryl and Steve get the same amount of money? How is Charlie’s part divided or does it continue to go to his family? Again, no disrespect intended. Just curious.

Jordan : a beer and a sandwich after the gig.

Logically Jones should get a bigger cut than Jordan because of "band seniority" so to speak.

when john entwitle died, in a pre-tour who´s tour, his family don´t get anything
all the money stays with pete tonswhend and roger daltrey
and the tour was happening because john's finances were pretty bad...

Charlie did give his blessing, and it was probably based on other factors beyond being friends with Steve.
Knowing how well Mick and Charlie ran this end of things, I would guess Charlie's estate still earns something, which they would have agreed to long before Charlie got sick.

Chances are the tour is a completely different corporation from the main band corporation. (Rolling Stones Tour 2022 Inc instead of Rolling Stones Inc)
They could have provisions for such a thing involving death where either Charlie relinquishes his share, they are allowed to buy out or his heirs are non voting shareholders (example Shirley can't make corporate decisions but will still be getting paid). It's likely Charlie doesn't own a share of the 2022 tour.
Anybody not named Mick or Keith is likely on salary. It's a good gig but Darryl and Steve likely aren't splitting anything but getting a guaranteed paycheck and per diems. Mick and Keith might even draw a regular paycheck off the company (guaranteed payment) and split up the leftovers afterward.
Now when Joey Kramer wasn't playing the recent Aerosmith shows he was still getting paid but had to pay his replacement out of his share.
I have no information at all, this is just bits and pieces I have picked up about other tours over the years. (Another example, Nikki Sixx and Mick Mars are the sole owners of Motley Crue with control over trademarks but the touring corporation is divided equally among the 4 members, got this info from when they sued Tommy and his manager in 2006)
