I actually think its a little more than that i like more like 35% to 40% that merch money is probably just :banderas:

Maybe like 30% for ticket sales and more like 60-70 % for merch cause i know live nation aint cutting into her merch like that.

you're right. the margins on merch is retarded. a screen printed tee that cost $5 to make (AT MOST) is selling for $50. :wow:

get that money bey. :banderas:

The show was amazing :wow: I with I could have gone to the final show too because of all the guest appearances and new songs she did. But the show itself was so amazing. She is a true performer, I had so much fun.

First of all his set was just ass cheeks :scust:

He didn't let the crowd get into the flow of the songs he was dropping he kept switching shyt out every two seconds.

The first philly show he brought out mad folks but this one not one person i was blown.

I really should have went to that last show i kept telling my best friend we should go.

I knew it would be nuts but that was just insane :damn:

The numbers are in and Beyoncé’s “Formation World Tour” is a major blockbuster. The run, which started April 27 in Miami and ended Oct. 7 in East Rutherford, took in more than $256,084,556 with 2.2 million tickets sold.

While that number reflects the tour’s overall success, each individual show was also stunning in the boxscore. According to Billboard, each concert averaged $5.2 million and 45,757 paid attendees.

The tour’s biggest stop belongs to London’s Wembley Stadium, where on July 2-3, Queen Bey brought in $15.3 million with 142,5000 tickets sold. Before that, New York’s Citi Field also raked in $11.5 million with 73,486 tickets sold in two sold-out shows. It was the highest-grossing stop in North America.

Arthur Fogel, the chairman of Live Nation’s Global Touring division, says Beyoncé is the reason those numbers were as astounding as they were.

“When everybody acknowledges the greatness of the production but, more than that, everybody is blown away by her, that’s the ultimate skill,” he said. “To not only use the platform of a great production, but to rise above it as a performer and artist, that’s her incredibly unique quality.”

:dead: He brought out Houston local artist to the 1st show here. But you are right he did switch the songs too fast. I was so hyped though (and buzzed :biggrin:) it didn't bother me as much. I don't know what she did for the second show.

That last show was LIT. I missed Kendrick :mjcry: I would have loved to see that live, the energy. The whole set would have been worth it plane tickets, hotel and all.

Most definitely would have been worth it show was very crazy.


You know what the show taught me about music is that some songs were made for stadiums .

I finally understand yo the vibe is just different :leon:

People always said this about kanye music too and i finally understand .

The club , car , even a nice size theater is very different from a stadium.

Beyonce music is insane live yo her band is awesome !!

Long Live the GOAT. :mjcry:

If you adjust for inflation and merchandising, licensing, and all that other good shyt, MJ kills Bey in money earned. He received $20 million for one particular concert in Bucharest During the dangerous tour. It was seen live around the world. And his ticket prices were far cheaper than beyonce's.

:ohhh: never thought of it like that. It's so true. She picks the right ones to put in her set too. The energy was just crazy, the production was crazy everything flowed.

That guitar solo of "Ghost" to "Don't Hurt Yourself" :banderas: she always has a bad guitarist.
