AC/DC have topped Australian business magazine BRW's list of that country's wealthiest entertainers for 2009.

The band earned $105 million in Australian dollars, or $95 million U.S., nine times the amount they earned the previous year.

BRW reporter Jane Lindhe said, "They've always been steady on the list but have come from $12 million last year to $105 million this year, blowing everyone out of the water."

The band's increased income was no doubt due to their world tour, which was one of the biggest of the year.
