I had a look at my receipt and the big issue I would have with the pricing is the extra charges, face value is £127.50, but with the add ons it's another £19.08 on top, which is absolutely nothing more than theft.

The car park price and the cost of camping are outrageous too.

To play devil's advocate, that's on the lower end of what big scale concerts cost these days. Have you seen the Metallica prices?

Disclaimer, I'm going to both Metallica and Maiden this summer. Plus Download.

Yeah I'm doing both too, my Metallica ticket the fees are €10.50, and that's two gigs as well.

I am doing both Metallica gigs in London. I paid a total of £173.05 and of that £150.00 is for both tickets (i.e., £75.00 per ticket), while the rest are fees (service charge of £16.50, facility charge of £3.80, and handling fee of £2.75).

For Maiden's show at the London Stadium un 2025, the ticket price in a similar section was £87.50, with a £10.90 service charge fee per ticket, and a one-off handling fee of £2.75.

How I miss the days when you would go to a record shop to buy your physical ticket there!
 
My mate got GNR tickets from an old fashioned record store, no fees and face value. The online pre-sale had no standing and only dynamic pricing, €400 plus for bog standard seats. She just tried the shop as an off chance:lol:

EDIT: those UK charges seem to be way dearer than equivalent countries, the combined service charge for two Maiden tickets for Paris is €1.85 :lol:

Double edit: It's actually €1.65 :lol:
 
Maiden's tickets here in Brazil were R$1,200.00 for the "golden circle" pit, with R$ 261.00 fees. That's €246.56, and to people who earn in R$ (minimum wage being R$ 1,621.00). It's crazy expensive to go to concerts here. We do have something called 'meia-entrada,' where students, seniors, teachers, and honestly, pretty much everyone else who finds a way, can get 50% off. The catch is that they cap these half-price tickets at 40% the capacity for any given section.

Yep, we are old enough to have actually lived the lyrics of "Denim and Leather", aint we?

Aces High will not be changed. They created an entire video for it which goes beyond the borderline screensaver that SSOASS got.

None of the other songs will be changed either, but Aces High is one of the centerpieces. Come on now.

Surely much of that video for Aces High could be repurposed for Tailgunner.

For me, the exclusion of a single NPFTD track during the 2025 leg is an error that they should fix in the 2026 leg.

Not suggesting they are using the excuse of not changing the set because of the dedicated video for each song, but it would be laughable if this was the reason.
Creating new videos and imagery for different songs with the technology available would take no time at all.

Animation can be a bit expensive though. Unless you want bad quality or use AI.

Agee, but Maiden does it right, it's not just flashing lights, it's a new design for each song which they really can't do. They did 3 and 4 stages for LOTB and it took time for intermission, now it's instant. I'm sure it will look great on DVD and definitely irl.

LOTB was the best stage and one of their best big Eddies and a very good setlist. That eddie was brutal
