word on the street is that he actually made money on his last year's solo tour. but it was certainly not millions he will make on the "big machine" tour.

i don't think almost any artist is making much money on album sales anymore... there was a story about Gaga having to cancel 25 tour dates just today, and the comment made by a reporter was "considering artists today make money touring and not by album sales she certainly didn't cancel these lightheartedly"... or something like that. that's talking about current artist selling millions of albums in the most recent years.
