    Diana Ross In Top 100 Biggest Grossing North American Tours for 2015

    www.pollstarpro.com/files/charts2015/2015YearEndTop200NorthAmericanTours.pdf

    Over 10.3m grossed - Excellent result considering the smaller size of venues she has been visiting.

    Not to mention most of the venues she performed at were sold out... that helps too.

    an old Ross 'rival' at #33.. Bette Midler apparently knows how to gets butts into the seats..[[when Cher did the 70's disco scene in NYC out on the town with 'the girls' she said she always had to be the buffer between Ross and Midler..lol...girls will be girls..

    What a hoot that must have been: Miss Ross, the Divine Miss M and Cher. I can see Cher trying to be the peacemaker of the three. She was friends with them both in the '70s.

    Diane Ross continues to sell out and never does a lick of PR or interviews. I guess her name just sell all the tickets.

    I'm glad Diana can take in 10 mil with only going to 26 cities. I just wish some of those dates were with Supremes Mary Scherrie & Lynda or any combo as they could all use some of that bank.

    Would be nice but as she said, I tried that. And isn't it the case that not all "the girls" are the best of pals anymore?

    What's nice to see is that, for her contemporaries, Diana has one of the lowest average ticket prices, at $102.00: Elton and Aerosmith are at $123.00 a ticket, Fleetwood Mac is at $125.00 a ticket, The Eagles and Bette are at $126.00 a ticket, the Grateful Dead are at $144.00 a ticket, Paul McCartney is a $161.00 a ticket, and the Rolling Stones are $174.00 a ticket.

    Diana could easily gauge the fans; certainly anyone willing to pay $100.00 is willing to pay more. With that said, she could easily rank much higher.

    It's excellent that these heritage artists are so popular.
