he was introduced on the Golden Globes as "the artist who had the biggest selling tour of 2004... Prince." It was also the 8th biggest tour ever in the US.

Prince was #1 in 2004 for both the top-grossing and most-attended North American tour. Celine Dion was #2 for gross, and Kenny Chesney was #2 for attendance.

PRINCE REIGNS SUPREME...

By name, he's Prince again, but on the concert trail he was king. Prince's ``Musicology'' tour grossed $87.4 million in 2004, tops among concert attractions in North America, according to Pollstar magazine.

Prince, whose tickets averaged $61.04 on his stops in 69 cities, also sold more tickets than any other act, more than 1.4 million.
