Nice to see Genesis on the list, and I guess it's understandable why DP aint on it, they're not exactly mainstream, and even if that wasn't the case, it's not like they made alot of stops in the US.

the police were supposed to be terrible. celine dion IS terrible. Just goes to show...

A major factor is also ticket prices. Which is why Madonna is always top grossing. Her tours have ridiculous prices.

Daft Punk not mainstream?

daft punk isn't as mainstream as the other bands that top the list

Theyre all massive groups/artists, as are Daft Punk. I think the other reasoning that they didnt have as many gigs in USA is why they arent on it

Celine Dion is only in Las Vegas. Yeah. That's a lot of money
