Not to be pedantic about a witty joke with a correct and good point but (going ahead and doing that anyway): the 80s/90s bios are more that they simply met at school, or art college, or wherever, and made music for years. They did this while drawing dole and/or living on low rent in major cities.

UK bands from the 80s all have bios like: "The group met at a government-funded arts mixer where they each received six months' rent tax-free" while for bands from the 2020s they're like "formed as a final year project at Goldsmiths, their first release was funded by interest from their trust funds"
