Wow, that is very surprising that most of those bands/artists have been around for 20+ years and are still the top money makers.

Their fans now have more money to spend on tickets is what I'm guessing....

I bought 70 dollar tickets for 100 through ebay. Sec 300 at MSG

The better seats are ridiculous

I didn't even know The Eagles were back together...
And I didn't know that Neil Diamond was still alive!

The Stones would have topped the list if their tour had started earlier than September. :applause:
