2012 is another big year for music. While this year's pop charts have been dominated by young singers, it is the veteran music stars, led by Madonna, that are commanding big money in tour ticket sales.
Madonna topped Billboard’s list of highest-grossing live tours, earning an estimated 228.4 million dollars from her sold-out ninth worldwide tour "MDNA." The singer will wrap up her tour in South America this weekend, after performing more than 80 shows across the world.

British rockers Coldplay rounded out the top five with about 150 million dollars over 67 shows.
