A lot of the US hardcore goups like NoMeansNo, Jello Biafra, Black Flag, Mission of Burma, Minor Threat etc would get my vote for maintaining their dignity. Most tour regularly and keep ticket and CD prices low and remain on indie labels like SST because the labels share the same philosophy as the bands and their fans.
There are also some long standing indie groups like Wolf Eyes, Nurse with Wounds, Angels of Light/Swans, Matmos, Autechre who always seem to remain true to their music and don't seem interested in money and fame and so, to me, retain their dignity. Sadly Nirvana lost theirs imho when they moved labels from Subpop to Geffen and not just because Kobain went in to a personal and very public meltdown with Courtney. You can probably add Courtney's band Hole - started well but lost it because Courtney became a victim of her own ego, image and publicity and so lost any dignity that she had. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

This is slightly offtopic but I gotta ask you guys:
Is it just me, or did more bands loose dignity than solo artists (guitar players/vocalists for example)?
