USVirgin Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 If those guys got paid one satang for each time on of their songs was played in a go-go, I believe they'd be the wealthiest musical act ever. With the possible exception of John Denver, who does well in karaoke spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroyinEwa/Perv Posted October 1, 2008 Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 I understand they made over 12 million last year ..just from royalties... That's alot of money and I'm not saying I wouldn't take it but look at this... The top tours of 2007 were: The Police - $212 million (£105 million) Genesis - $129 million (£64 million) Justin Timberlake - $126.8 million (£62.9 million) Kenny Chesney- $71.2 million (£35.3 million Rod Stewart - $70 million (£34.7 million) Cirque Du Soleil's Delirium - $59.4 million (£29.5 million) Roger Waters - $53.2 million (£26.4 million) Tim McGraw/Faith Hill - $52.3 million (£25.9 million) Christina Aguilera - $48.1 million (£23.8 million) Rascal Flatts - $41.6 million (£20.6 million) It appears those are just tour numbers. I'm guessing that is not for record sales, any appearances beyond the tour, other endorsements or contracts, sales of items at concerts, etc. It'll be interesting to see the final numbers for their tour when they are done......I would bet it would be in the neighborhood of that list.
