Looking at attendance figures for Future Past in Japan, 6.6k+ average for 5 concerts, no sell-outs. Maybe play 1 or 2 this time in Japan or skip? In Australia Maiden did 24k+ in Sydney and Melbourne, could they play small stadium in each city as could do 30k? At moment presuming 16 Europe...

Fiddling about on Google search trying to access Pollstar, got into their Live 75 chart it says in the past 30 days Maiden averaged 30,853. Dated August 1st. 12 concerts reported, gross average $3.657 million. 100% tickets sold. Maiden played 15 concerts July, Belfort won't be included as...

How long will tour last 2026, 5 months at longest? 13 gigs per month, taking into consideration lot of travelling? Maybe short break at some point? Assume 24 North American shows, up to 10 in South America? Japan, Asia, Australia, New Zealand 10? May only leave enough space for 12 to 14...

BMO sized venues of up to 30000 I think in big markets like LA, Toronto and New York. Selling out 15000-20000 arenas and amphitheaters in NA is Maiden's limit I think.

Play Download UK, the 2 Rock Am Ringy concerts, Greece, Romania, Croatia, couple more in Europe? As I live in Bangkok hope a show happens within medium flying distance for me. Saw Madrid and Lisbon which where very good recently.

Thinking about taking my Thai wife to the Def Leppard residency in Las Vegas but the "big beautiful bill" proposes an additional $250 "integrity tax" for her so visa costs would be $435 for a 5 day trip. ESTA to increase from $20 to $40. Makes trip very doubtful, unless "integrity tax" is...

Maiden fantastic Lisbon, visuals work better indoors, sound good. Crowd loved it. Recommend Lisbon as arena easy to walk to. Highlights Rime, 2, Hallowed, Wasted. Madrid sound iffy, crowd fantastic. As I live in Bangkok fingers crossed 2026 something works for me in Japan through Australia.

Madrid tonight for me, Lisbon tomorrow, stoked! Some tour numbers from UK MIX Prague 60308 Stockholm 66702 Helsinki 40106 Copenhagen 15549

Wasting Love has 97 million plays at YouTube music, video seen 66 million at YouTube. Surprised so popular but enough evidence that many seem to like it.

Number 10 on Billboard's Hard Rock Sales chart for 2015, good work.

Album just misses Top 100 in UK was 95 on sales chart, streaming means just misses out. Still that should be good enough for about another 2,500 sales.

Great that album is gold in UK, did that 5 months quicker than FF i think. Should add another 8-10K by end of year in UK. Number 10 on US hard rock album chart as well.

Re-entered this week chart in UK at 82, should put album over 100K, look forward to GOLD statement soon, sales in 2,500 region this week. Not nominated for a Grammy, surprised at that.
