Garth Brooks ranked No. 1 with the highest-netting tour of December 2010 with his 9 shows in Nashville to benefit flood relief.
"Tennessee has shown amazing character through all of this," Brooks said. "It is an honor to get to be a part of the healing process."
The Bridgestone Arena-only dates brought over $4 million. At the same time, Prince's "Welcome 2 America" tour generated $2 million, placing the pop star 2nd to Brooks.
Originally, only one show was planned for December. But the 17,000-seat Nashville venue sold out in less than three hours. More dates were added, bringing the total of shows to nine over a seven-day period.
Proceeds from Brooks' Nashville shows went to the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.
