Arr but its based on grossings lol although Madonna is the highest, but U2 are continuing the tour next year aswell just like madonna did. U2 are close to Madonnas rankings on less show dates, where as madonna charged more for her shows i saw u2 here in Sheffield and was good stage wise was amazing. They could bag one award and madonna get the other thats fare i say. She deserves award for all effort she put in both tours last year and this year.
In the sun it said that the stage was costing loads per day even when they are not using it & at the time they were not in profit yet.

Yeah but its making it now, not sure 100% how the award works i thought it was based on general amount of tickets sold and how much made not so much on profit but how muuch the tour actually grossed????? Will see its next month the awards are dished out only few weeks to go. 1 each will be fine i'd say

Madonna's Sticky & Sweet Tour was the big winner at the sixth annual Billboard Touring Awards, taking home honors for Top Tour and Top Draw, which acknowledge the highest-grossing and highest-attended tours of the year, respectively.

 

Madonna's manager Guy Oseary won the Top Manager award. Live Nation was awarded as Top Promoter.

 

The Billboard Touring Awards are based on worldwide data reported to Billboard Boxscore for the period October 1, 2008, through September 30, 2009. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :cheer: :cheer:
