Nightshade Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 when u look at the chart...under cities shows, it says 67/88....does that mean 67 out of 88 reported? No. It means there were 67 cities visited and 88 shows total. Some cities had 2 shows, thus the disparity. By the way, the LA Times says the Pollstar gross numbers are "projected" which means the gross could change once Boxscore reveals the final reported numbers.

Raider of the lost Ark Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Haha, we had that with the CT as well. Remember that 194.7 million number and everyone wanted it to cross 200 million. Of course it's all about those milestone numbers. Anyway, what did we learn? The world doesn't end. Life goes on. And we know what happened with S&S.

Guest Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 From Madonnarama: Madonna’s MDNA Tour is breaking new records Billboard already released the box scores for the first 74 of 88 MDNA Tour concerts. While we wait on the exact numbers for the remaining cities, Pollstar revealed that Madonna’s MDNA Tour grossed $296.1 million this year and easily claims the No.1 spot on the “2012 Top Worldwide Tours” chart. This makes it the 10th highest-grossing tour of all time and also gives Madonna the record for top two highest-grossing-tours of all time for a female artist. Here is the top 10 of the “2012 Top Worldwide Tours” chart… WOAH!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat.Guy Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Sorry but I need the receipts first. Latin America tickets were very expensive and she had huge crowds. If that's the real number, oh yeah girl! let's celebrate! But I'm still waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessie Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 That is what i said all along she is one step of breaking her own SS tour record with just a few more shows. She could easily do it with the astrononical demand in Asia and Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whyme? Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Based on these numbers, she had about 417,000 fans in latin america. In 2008, she had 816,000 fans. I'm assuming the tickets this time were much more expensive. She'll take home her $100 million paycheck, lucky bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolidayGuy Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/posts/la-et-ms-madonna-springsteen-roger-waters-top-grossing-tour-pollstar-20121228,0,2915726.story Los Angeles Times Madonna, Springsteen, Roger Waters were tops on tour in 2012 December 28, 2012 Madonna was queen of the world in 2012, at least as far as touring pop music performers, delivering the highest-grossing concert tour of the year and raking in nearly $300 million at the box office worldwide, according to Pollstar, the concert-industry tracking magazine. Madonna’s MDNA tour visited 67 cities for 88 performances that grossed $296.1 million, an average of $4.4 million a night, Pollstar’s data shows. Her average ticket price was just over $140, far from the priciest concert tickets of the year. Bruce Springsteen &; the E Street Band came in at No. 2, grossing $210.2 million from 81 shows in 66 cities on the Wrecking Ball tour. Springsteen sold more tickets than Madonna — nearly 2.3 million to her 2.1 million — but at significantly lower ticket prices. Seats for Springsteen’s shows averaged just less than $92. Best of 2012: Movies | TV | Pop music | Jazz | Video Games| Art | Theater | Dance | Classical music Third place went to Roger Waters with $186.4 million, making him the only act in the top 10 most lucrative tours who also made that list last year. Waters jumped up two positions from last year, selling almost 1.7 million tickets and posting an average nightly gross of nearly $3.9 million during 72 shows in 48 cities. “Proving there is a global diversity of attractions, only 13 artists from 2011 made this year's top 50,” Pollstar Editor Gary Bongiovanni noted in a statement accompanying the magazine’s tour report. “It is also worth noting that the global brand strength of Cirque du Soleil has never been greater, with eight different touring shows ranking on the chart.” Coming in behind Waters, Coldplay finished at No. 4 with $171.3 million, followed by Lady Gaga in fifth place with $161.4 million. Pollstar’s numbers are close to Billboard’s recently published year-end tour tally but reflect some notable differences. Billboard uses a slightly earlier reporting period — Nov. 9, 2011 through Nov. 13, 2012 versus Pollstar’s Jan. 1 through Dec. 31 time frame. In addition, Pollstar incorporates projections on shows not reported by promoters to provide a fuller approximation of the actual totals. Rounding out Pollstar’s top 10 were Cirque du Soleil’s “Michael Jackson: The Immortal” tour at No. 6 (with a gross of $140.2 million), Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw’s Brothers of the Sun stadium tour (No. 7, $96.5 million), Metallica (No. 8, $86.1 million), Elton John (No. 9, $69.9 million) and the Red Hot Chili Peppers (No. 10, $57.8 million). Chesney and McGraw logged the highest average attendance, playing to 49,336 fans on average during their summer run. Among other intriguing statistics farther down the year-end tally: Barbra Streisand made the top 25 with 12 concert in 10 cities, thanks to an average ticket price of $263.52, giving her a $40.7 million gross and the No. 22 spot on the list. But even those numbers pale next to the Rolling Stones, who finished at No. 33 with just five shows in three cities. As the band, which cheekily refers to itself as “world’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll band,” marked its 50th anniversary in 2012, it raked in $35.5 million, which breaks down to nearly $12 million a night. The average ticket price? A whopping $529.51. Despite that heart-stopping spike, “The average global ticket price was $85.93,"; Bongiovanni said, ";which was down 60 cents from last year but still well above the $73.83 charged in the more robust year of 2009.” Pollstar’s figures also show a slight decline in both the total number of tickets sold for the top 50 highest-grossing shows of the year and the overall revenue generated: $3 billion from 34.9 million tickets in 2012 versus $3.07 billion and 35.5 million tickets a year earlier. Both ticket totals are “well off the pace from 2009 when the top 50 sold 45.3 million,” Bongiovanni added. Pollstar tracks ticket sales across the calendar year, and its annual report “includes specific sales figures for nearly 90% of all shows worked by the top attractions and projections were made for any of the unreported dates,” Bongiovanni said. Information released late Friday offers a preview of Pollstar’s full year-end report, which will cover the top 200 highest-grossing concert tours in North America and the top 100 attractions worldwide. Those figures will appear in Pollstar’s Jan. 4 issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloane Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 PawsDown is reporting a second leg and I believe it. I've believed it all along. M's about making money these days: clothing lines, gyms, perfume. What better way to make stupid crazy bank than continuing something that's already been conceived? All she's gotta do is perform it and BOOM another $100 million. Granted, it's physically demanding and not all that easy, but the artistic work itself is DONE. Just perform it. Don't mean to bring up that gaga creature but it must be said that M's numbers are nearly double, and gaga's been on tour longer. HA! Sometimes it's just too easy to be a Madonna fan.

Louise Oriole Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I think perhaps PawsDown is reporting about a second leg probably due to the access passes. They say 2012-2013, but that's because Australia was originally supposed to be included for Jan-Feb 2013. It seems Tribe is confirming a 2014 tour, so I don't think a 2013 extension is in the plans. The new album is rumored to be out late 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apples388 Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 Well we already have the M13 tracklist, but for now I will give you 4 confirmed song titles to whet your appetite for the new year: * Grapevyne * Sitting on the Whole World * On Eagles Wings * Waving to the Crowd Enjoy!

Guest pedrohdi Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I don´t think is weird, MDNA passed under the radar for most people, so a new album in 2013 would be the right move, with a tour going to places that she hasn't gone in a long time like, Australia, and going to other markets like New Zeland, Asia and only the big markets in Europe and North America, and of course end it in SA in 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fighting Spirit Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 If it's true, that's amazing. Sticky & Sweet grossed US$ 282 million before the second leg. So the LEGENDARY MDNA TOUR was more successful, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
