Billboard's midyear boxscore charts provide a snapshot of an industry in crisis.

Sir Elton John performs onstage at Madison Square Garden on March 5, 2019 in New York City.

It wasn’t supposed to be this way. 2020 was on track to be the best touring year in history, one that would have beat 2019, which itself was a record year. Early ticket-buying data shows consumer spending was on track to hit an all-time high, with more bands and artists than ever competing for fans’ dollars.

Meanwhile, Tool postponed nearly half of its 2020 tour, which was on track to generate $33 million, and the Jonas Brothers canceled their Las Vegas residency. The Eagles, Dead & Company, Ariana Grande, Maroon 5 and Backstreet Boys all canceled the remaining dates of their tours.
