Despite the fact that Metallica will be “full-on touring” beginning in January 2017 according to Lars Ulrich, the band has managed to gross $5.16 million in a single night, Aug. 20, at U.S. Bank Stadium, Minneapolis. Ticket prices ranged from $50 to $150 at the Frank Productions and AEG Live-promoted event. The sold-out night saw more than 48,000 fans in attendance.

Rappers Drake and Future set out on their Summer Sixteen tour, which consists of 60 stops throughout North America on July 20 at Frank Erwin Center, Austin, Texas. This week, the duo is at the top of our Hot Tickets chart for four sold-out back-to-back nights at Madison Square Garden, New York, Aug 4-8. The shows saw more than 58,000 fans in attendance, grossing $6.8 million in ticket sales alone. The Live Nation-promoted tour can be caught by fans at their next stop in New Orleans at the Smoothie King Center on Sept. 2 with supporting acts DVSN and Roy Wood$.
