I'm pretty sure that the Stones sold the most concert tickets this year, cause their box office is more than triple Bon Jovi's, but still, I think they outsold tickets over Madonna...

And really!, shouldn't the number of people who went to shows matter more than the grosses they make?

Seriously, if one band made the most money, but another played to more people in the world than anyone else (possibly Bon Jovi, in this case), shouldn't that matter more? IMO, yes...

I love RS's and Madonna, but I hope Bon Jovi sold more tickets.

I'm going to check Billboard magazine - cause once we find out how many shows they played between Nov. 2005-Nov 2006, and the ticket prices for the shows, THEN we can find out who the clear victor is...lol

I'm rambling. Congrats on being #3.
Don't forget, a stadium houses more than an arena. You'll have to take into consideration who played in what kind of venues for the tour.
