I recently read a story about how he is raking in the cash with his tours by keeping ticket and merchandise prices low and playing more shows. If he goes to a town where he knows he could sell 20,000 tickets to a 8,000 seat venue instead of charging $100+ a ticket and selling it out for one night he will charge $30 a ticket and play for three nights. This way all his fans can afford to see him and and they have more money to buy his shirts and beer.
Smart guy.
