Bon Jovi's album was a disappointment, but they landed at #1.
Wow at Depeche Mode making the Top 10!
And Roger Waters at #16.
Michael Jackson is worth more dead, than alive.

Truly surprised with Bey's numbers, plus she has 30+ dates left to add to her total. she will definitely be top 4 when its all said and done.

^Where are those totals from? Billboard/Boxscore had reported Cher's tour as $193 million or so (as all shows were not reported). is that total an estimate including those shows?
Like movies, these kinds of lists are lacking somewhat, because of inflation. I wonder what a ranking by estimated tickets sold would look like. Some of those on this list probably would not be present.

I got that list from ATRL so take it with a pinch of salt.
Just researched the Pollstar year end charts from 2002-2005 and these are Cher's totals
2002 - 73.6
2003- 68.2
2004- 29.1
2005- 17.8
so that gives us 188.7 Million. don't know where the rest is coming from.

In recent years, Pollstar started estimating for non-reported shows. And, it also started reporting worldwide sums (when it previously had been just USA and Canada).

I think Pink is one of the most serially underrated artists. She's always a beast with her tours.

Can anyone post more actual numbers on the "American Idol LIVE! Tour 2013"? They cancelled the first 10 shows, performed in much smaller venues than in past years, and still played mostly to half-empty seats.
Wiki lists 9/30 Boxscores and they were all HORRIBLE! Most were under $150k, which would extrapolate to an ~$4M grossing tour. In comparison to this tour earning ~$30M in both 2008 and 2009!
