List: Top Ten Grossing North American Music Act Tours
Date: 2004
Source: Pollstar
Base: All music acts touring the USA and Canada in 2004
Notes: Wow, Bette Midler shaking it up in the presence of Metallica and Van Halen! Toby Keith and Kenny Chesney, 'reprazentin' the Country Music posse, are the youngest performers on a list dominated by the 40 years plus crowd. They also have the biggest hats, although Elton John won the competition for the biggest wigs.
