TipToe Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 It's incredible that Tina managed to appear twice in a list that is dominated by 2000 concerts, the woman was already rocking the stage when Madonna was still using diapers Imagine the smash if touring was as profitable in her golden days.

Tickets went up with like 8% per year just like how real estate prices went up with 8% (only limited by the amount of money people are willing to give for something). The credit crunch slowed the rise of ticket prices a little bit, but the increase continued in last few years from 100 or 150 dollar (depending on the city) to 200 or 250 dollar and beyond.

I wouldn't really say that when Beyonce has additional 250M+ and 100M+ tours, and 2 other residencies (Revel + Roseland) in this 10s decade. Bey also does less dates.

Make it make sense. The Reputation Tour has the second highest gross and attendance in history. That's the definition of impressive.
