The "Last Dance With Mary Jane" hitmakers raked in over $32 million and became the only touring supergroup to make more than $30 million on the road this summer, according to new Pollstar tour tracking estimates.

The Dave Matthews Band came in second with $29.5 million and The Police's final reunion tour shows brought in $28.3 million, putting them third.
