|
|
| The comeback tour by Anglo-American rock trio the Police was the top draw this year with ticket sales of $131.9 million, followed by country star Kenny Chesney with $71.1 million, and pop singer Justin Timberlake with $70.6 million. The Police tour ranks fourth on Pollstar's all-time list, behind the 2005 treks of the Rolling Stones ($162 million) and Irish rock band U2 ($139 million), and the Stones' 2006 outing ($138.5 million). This year, the venerable British rockers limited themselves to a 12-week tour of Europe. Rounding out the top five of 2007 were Celine Dion's just-completed exclusive engagement at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas ($65.3 million) and rock band Van Halen ($56.7 million) with original singer David Lee Roth at the helm for the first time in two decades. |

Problem is, it won't matter, as this was a "2007" list, not a "how did the last tour do" list... |
