i would look at comfort and parking logistics a bit, and it would help you a lot to do a sharp pencil cost comparison of the way you get along now vs RVing.
i am ballpark guessing $150/nite/2 comfortable roomswithlonghotshowersandnicebeds vs very comprimised living quarters in an RV and 8 tired folks. motorhome financing may demand high insurance w/ 8 occupants (maybe over $1000/yr) - but not for a trailer. in either case where can you park rv in town (and run AC)?, you may find locals tiring of seeing 'squatters" over the months you do repeat gigs and so you are forced to some RV campground at $40+/nite.
just rough thoughts
