There are quite a few bands that have decided to go back on tour this year. Wether it be a goodbye, a rebirth post hiatus, or in this case, a new album (FINALLY).
Among one of the most elusive bands in rock, Tool, has finally returned to the stage, and their sales numbers are insane. According to their figures reported to Billboard Boxscore, they earned $3.4 million and sold 39,397 tickets.
The rock band surpassed $1 million in grosses on all three reported concerts, pulling in $1.2 million at Kansas City’s Sprint Center and $1.1 million at both Louisville’s KFC Yum! Center and the Enterprise Center in St. Louis. These new figures push Tool’s career total gross past the $150 million mark, totaling $151.6 million.
Tool is prepping the release of a new studio album, due out Aug. 30. It will mark the band’s first album in more than a decade, since 2006’s 10,000 Days.
