The Darkness,

I do not understand the hate. They are a cracking live band.

I think there's an element of metal fans being terrified that there might be some normal people at the gig.

All this talk about the shows now is pointless; let's wait to see what happens with the announcements coming in the next two weeks or after the NEW Year.
 
There's a lot of whinging about Anthrax and Megadeth should be on the bill, but are people really clamouring for them, or are they just asking for them because they've heard of them?

I'm a fan of both bands, seen Anthrax maybe 3 or 4 times (same set give or take every time going back to 2013 when I first saw them) and Megadeth probably 6 or 7 times (again bar one or two off whatever album they're touring, it's the same set every time) and both bands are extremely boring live acts.

They wouldn't be among names I'd be calling out to see added to the bill, and are both bands I've turned down getting tickets for in the past.

I can agree wtih anthrax....but megadeth??? Its ok dave doesnt move but they are 100% riff or guitar band. I enjoy that. The other day i saw helloween live and the thing that most amaze me was how they nail each riff and solos. The 3 of them.

Boring were beast in black. It was like watching some heavy band from eurovision

I disagree with you on Anthrax being boring live, but agree on Megadeth though.

Fans might be asking them to join the bill because they are supporting Maiden elsewhere or because they are more closely aligned to those fans’ musical tastes.
 
I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, in that all the times I've seen them they have been in festival or support slots, so that might explain the over reliance on the Antisocials and Got the Times of this world.

What are you talking about? The show officialy sold out in less than 2 weeks, then it was all production holds and stuff like that for months (and it was all gone way before the show anyway).

You clearly have no idea how ticket sales operate. I got my ticket on the day of the show, and where I was sat in the nosebleeds, there were plenty of empty seats.

The show attracted less than 69,500.
If that was a sell out, it was the lowest sell out crowd in the venues history!
But let me guess, you think Maidens’s stage show is so much bigger than all other stadium acts and they couldn’t fit more in?

You sound like a fanboy who thinks your fave band is bigger than everyone else.

É evidente que você não tem a menor ideia de como funciona a venda de ingressos. Comprei meu ingresso no dia do show e, mesmo estando sentado lá no alto, havia vários lugares vazios.

O evento atraiu menos de 69.500 pessoas.
Se esse show esgotou os ingressos, foi o show com o menor público esgotado na história do local!
Mas deixe-me adivinhar, você acha que o show do Iron Maiden é muito maior do que o de todas as outras bandas que se apresentam em estádios.

Você parece um fã obcecado que acha que sua banda favorita é maior que todas as outras.

Cara, os números oficiais saíram nas plataformas de venda de ingressos.
69.500 participantes pagantes, sem contar os convidados.
Não se pode discutir com as fontes.

69,500 is way short of the 80,000 capacity of the venue - which was my point.

Beyonce sold out London Stadium 2 nights 126k, 63k per night, Depeche Mode 65k sold out, Sam Fender 82k sell out. All depends on configuration of venue for gig. I will give benefit of doubt to Maiden, 69k+ good work.

Have seen Megadeth and Anthrax many times, prefer songs of Megadeth, live prefer Anthrax.

The Darkness have a great frontman in UK it works having them second on bill.

Sam Fender’s stage might have been even smaller than Iron Maiden arena stage.

I cannot wait to see the numbers for the Metallica gigs in July 2026.

Anthrax wipes out Megadeth live. Dave nails all the riffs and the band is amazing but his voice is not holding up well, Joey still has voice and still sounds top notch

That is true. He cant sing like 90s anymore but as you say the band nails all the riffs. Ive seen megadeth 4 or 5 and its a band for not sing chorus ( a few) and listen. But i dont think that is boring. Anthrax .... i dont love the first albums with joey and i used to listen more white noise with the other singer (bush?) But its not a band that i like the most only songs

I imagine we can guess, big attendance numbers, lots of casual fans quiet as a library until the classics are played. That’s Metallica live these days, not their fault ,Sad but True…
