Mumford & Sons pulled in more than $731,000 at a Sept. 4 show at Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minn. The folk rock heroes recently wrapped their tour Sept. 20 with an added show at Cricket Wireless Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, Kan. Immediately after the tour ended, Mumford & Sons announced to Rolling Stone that the band is taking a break from recording or performing for the foreseeable future. It's been a busy year for the group, which started touring after releasing its sophomore album last September. During the tour, bassist Ted Dwane underwent surgery for a blood clot in his brain, leading to the rescheduling of several North American tour dates.
