Not a fan of nomad but I'm with that person on TTLBLAH

shame they didn't do this with Final Frontier. The fact they neglected to play Starblind is a tragedy.

Perhaps I missed this in the thread earlier but it just showed up on my feed that he busted his ass during this gig

They posted earlier about reaching Gold certification in the UK today (100,000 copies of their new album)

the best thing they could do for a 50th anniversary celebration is play the X factor in its entirety and throw in The Angel and the Gambler as the encore and give the fans what they really want. In all seriousness, I'd rather have a 90s tour focusing on NPFTD and FOTD... 2 great albums with...

saw Foreigner and Bryan Adams at the one in Alpharetta. Better part of town too lol for leaving a gig late at night

they neglected the whole southeastern USA from the mid 90s until 2009 :facepalm: and 2009 we were the last show of the tour and only one in the USA in 2009 :facepalm: USA in general got next to nothing on Dance of Death and AMOLAD tours... still sucks they would skip their own homeland...

Maiden's shows don't work well in outdoor environments and that always bugged me when I lived in Atlanta. They always played Lakewood Amphitheater and the sound and loss of atmosphere stunk. We don't really get loads of metal music festivals in the states... too much EDM, country and pop crap...

I hope they post some on the site. I love that back design

lets not forget that many potential sales were lost during the limewire/napster/mega-upload days.... also many do conversions these days and just use streaming services which clearly shows Maiden have a massive streaming following

It was based on original released format to my understanding. If you look at the prior post for their worldwide sales to date, many have passed several million but likely from multiple formats.

Their history of sales and such are quite odd in the states and a lot has to do with lack of radio play, television appearances (which were a big deal to Americans back then) and the hate the album got from the religious and political worlds. Their first album never reached any certification at...

Fun facts about how long it took for Maiden's albums to reach their certification in the USA and this is for albums only, single format. Does not include later downloads, streams, MP3s ect which were factored in the prior posts. Just physical records Albums not listed never achieved a...

there is usually a special event tee for the O2 gigs so I expect to see something posted tonight or tomorrow from the band or fans

not sure if London will be it but I'm sure a live album and concert video are in the works. I'd almost wonder if they do something like Flight 666 where each song is from a different venue. That was cool to see.

The most notable compilations and live album sales figures.... not all of them, just the really notable ones with strong sales figures. Some of this is hard to comprehend but Billboard, RIAA and such are pretty reliable I'd say Title ---------------------------- Worldwide Sales --------...

That's my mistake. I didn't make it clear in the OG post that these were through end of 2021. It was a reply to someone else. I can add in the live albums and compilations soon or at least the big winners of them.

1986 was a hell of a year for metal though and they had loads of competition. Metallica - Master of Puppets Slayer - Reign in Blood Alice Cooper - Constrictor Dark Angel - Darkness Descends Thrash had become very mainstream and SIT didn't blend well with it as the same situation with Judas...

As I stated, this was through the end of 2021. I anticipate more copies of Somewhere in Time and Senjutsu to be sold as this tour progresses. With that being said, it took 5 years for Book of Souls to reach 1 million copies world wide. I was not a fan of the new album but still bought it and...

The live and compilation albums are not factored in to the EAS. Live After Death sold over 5 million copies world wide alone and Maiden England and a few others were over a million a piece so that could equate to a more 90 million ish number they quote
