Concert residencies[edit]

Should I add a new tab for the concert residencies? Loibird90 (talk) 11:16, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article focus on artists' revenue from concert tickets regardless of the type of the performance. If we add list of pure "concert residencies" artists, then we should make pure "touring" artists as well. I think it's kinda imposible to know the latter.

I think Concert residency#Boxscore is the best choice to go, if you want to list artist solely based on residencies' revenue. Bluesatellite (talk) 11:39, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

okay thank you! Loibird90 (talk) 12:18, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rolling Stones[edit]

Shouldn’t there be a note that pollstar and billboard doesn’t include concert tickets sold before 1982. There is a 20 year period where RS are unaccounted for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.195.147.213 (talk) 04:43, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Beyoncé[edit]

The numbers for the Renaissance World Tour are in and Billboard reports that she has grossed $154,360,000 from 21 shows selling 1,047,000 tickets. This should be added to her career total. Billboard has her career gross at 927+ million from 9.9 million tickets sold (her latest tour included). She will cross the 1 billion treshold with the first few American shows. 190.108.214.186 (talk) 11:50, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Grateful Dead[edit]

- they sold 23 million tickets over 30 years… from 66-95 . With US dollar inflation rates they most definitely should be on this list. 71.194.164.59 (talk) 12:16, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
