Rush Time Machine Tour makes Billboard Hot Tours list

Fri, Apr 15, 2011@10:16AM | comments removed/disabled

UPDATE - 4/15@10:59AM: NOTE: I have also updated the tour page with all the official attendance numbers through the Madison Square Garden show. Florida, Hershey and MSG were all sellouts!

Rush's 2011 Time Machine Tour has landed the #3 spot in this week's Billboard Hot Tours rankings:

Canadian rock band Rush ranks third in the Hot Tours rankings with the initial totals of 2011 reported for the Time Machine Tour that originally kicked off last summer. The 2010 schedule wrapped last October in South America, but following a winter break, the tour resumed with a sold out performance on March 30 at BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Fla. The first six concerts from the 2011 itinerary were reported during the past week by tour promoter Live Nation Global Touring, and the top gross and attendance numbers among these venues came from Madison Square Garden. The band drew a sellout crowd of 13,207 to the New York City arena on April 10 grossing $1.2 million.

Tonight's show in Cleveland also looks to be a sellout although there's no official word yet. Thanks to John at Cygnus-X1.net for the heads up.
