The rock dinosaurs Rolling Stones regained from U2 the title of the band with the highest grossing tour.
Up until last year Stones and their “Voodoo Lounge” tour from the mid-90’s were at the top of the charts with $320 million, but were replaced by U2’s “Vertigo” tour and earnings of $333 million.
However, the Stones’ “Bigger Bang” extravaganza will have made a gross figure of $377 million in a calendar year at the end of this month – scoring a gargantuan $477 million since the tour’s inception last autumn.
