I have no idea how much a kroner is but 148 million sounds like a lot.

[BellaDonna93]

It's almost $22 000 000 :)

^^That's not as much as I would have guessed.

ETA: I'm not too suprised by the rankings, except for the Idol tour. Really???!!!

[BellaDonna93]

At least Fleetwood Mac makes more money than Beyonce, lol

Looks like classic rockers are finally starting to lose their touring edge. Just a couple of years ago these lists were utterly dominated by geezer rockers... now they just account for 4 out of 10. I know historically, the concert goer was much older than the record buyer... I wonder if the concert goer is lowering in age these days too?

I read in USA Today recently that Fleetwood Mac made $21 million during their tour. Glad to know that they're still doing successful tours. They just need to tour more often!
