List of Björk tours
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a comprehensive listing of tours made by Icelandic music composer and singer Björk, including the repertoire of songs performed on each tour. Note that individual concert set-lists do not necessarily include all the songs listed for each particular tour. Indeed, since the Vespertine tour in 2001 setlists have changed dramatically from show to show.
