>>$3-6m a show gross is nice to have but they may even lose money on that.
They don't.
It used to be that tours were loss making but were there to drive album sales.
These days the money in music is so much reduced that the music is there to publicise the tours, which is where they make the real money.
Which works for me. I always felt that music prices were artificially controlled by the music companies. That tower has been torn down making music far more accessible than it has ever been.
And I don't give a stuff what concert tour ticket prices are, it doesn't affect me.
