This is cool.
Does this mean he has the top grossing tour at the moment? I went out to Pollstar and they don't state what the top 50 is based on. | |

This looks like it means Prince has the most seats in terms of venues he's booked for and, presumably, the greatest revenue coming from these bookings. What else can it be? | |

And here I thought it was based on most creative use of ferrets during a guitar solo...  | |

Artists are ranked by the number of times their itinerary is requested
by fans visiting the Pollstar Web site on the Internet. This site receives more than 23 million hits per month. The Power Index is determined by ranking the artists as a percentage of the chart leader. | |

You will if you drop the 25 bones for the club! Its actually a good deal, since the Ticket Massa charges are almost that much if you buy them through their site. I'd rather P have that money anyday. If you go to more than one show, then it more than pays for itself!!! Not trying to be a friggin advertisement here, but it really isn't a bad thing at all, and I'd hate to think that you won't get a good seat when he comes to your town! 
Do not hurry yourself in your spirit to become offended, for the taking of offense is what rests in the bosom of the stupid ones. (Ecclesiastes 7:9) | |

check this out - at least 4 sellouts in the first 5 stops, giving prince 4 of the top 10 concert grosses for the week.

also, note that Brittney couldn't sell out Phillips arena, but Prince did, and Beyonce and Alicia Keys couldn't sell out the fleet center but Prince did. |
