Default LH - Tour gross?

No other act comes close to Bon Jovi, as the New Jersey superstars have sold out stadiums and arenas across the continent and around the world on their just-concluded AEG Live produced and promoted tour. With a total gross of more than $112 million, and drawing more than 1 million loyal fans over the course of 70 U.S. shows, The Lost Highway is already considered one of the band's biggest tours ever in its 25-year career. In addition to this incredible domestic success, the band has reached even greater star status overseas, selling almost 1.7 million tickets abroad in the past six months alone, according to Pollstar.

I m wondering when will the final numbers be released and will BJ top the tour chart this year?

I think there is information somewhere that overall gross of the whole tour is over 230 000 000$

But you have to remember that the year is not over yet. Probably the only artist's tour I'am worried about is Madonna's Sticky and Sweet tour and her tour will be over by the end of the year.

yes, but i think Madonna has grossed more than 80 millions to date (european dates), and the sales will counting by billboard until november 14th.
We never know, because her tickets are very much expensive than bj's.

Total gross for the Europe run was 114 million, 80 million that Billboard posted and 34 million that didn't make it.

I think Bon Jovi allso grossed more then 100 milion in Europe alone! So, thats really close...
I had some calculations and came around 250 million for whole tour! But, will they count concerts in 2007? If not, then BJ will loose some 42 millions they grossed then...
