    But as I said, record sales don't mean as much in the scheme of things these days so live tours are taken into account.

    Just one of those things, people disagree, I'd put more worth on Adele's impact on the music industry as a whole (in terms of sales) than One Direction's tour which didn't even reach the top 25 grossing tours of 2012

    That's because their tickets face value sell at a lot less than the big selling acts like Springsteen and Stones. They were first in sales for merchandise which figures I suppose as they are a boyband.

    What about the Take Me Home Tour 2013?

    The Brit was for 2012, which is what I'm referring to, the 2013 tour didn't begin until after the Brits

    You can't really compare the up all night tour with the big grossing ones. It was a small stage with small venues. Not a fair comparison.

    OK, so we all know that One Direction are not the best singers on the planet, but they are a lot better now than when they were on the X Factor. But for me it is not what they sound like that matters, but the dream lifestyle they have found for such ordinary lads. I would give anything to be the sixth member of the band! And I am better looking than the five of them combined!

    Only one problem, I can't sing!
