The title is wordy, but I'm trying to figure out - how many times have I heard songs from a specific studio album, live in concert?
For example, if you saw the Run for Your Lives tour once, and Days of Future Past twice, you'd be up to 5 for The Number of the Beast (you would've heard The Number of the Beast, Run to the Hills, and Hallowed Be Thy Name once each during RFYL, and then The Prisoner twice during DOFP).
I'll go first (can't get it to format properly):
Artist Album Count
Death From Above You're A Woman, I'm A Machine 52
Iron Maiden The Number of the Beast 37
Matthew Good Beautiful Midnight 33
Iron Maiden Powerslave 27
Wishbone Ash Argus 27
Iron Maiden Piece of Mind 25
The Who Quadrophenia 24
Iron Maiden Somewhere in Time 23
Death From Above Heads Up 22
Iron Maiden Senjutsu 21
Iron Maiden Iron Maiden 21
Death From Above The Physical World 20
Deep Purple Machine Head 18
Iron Maiden The Book of Souls 18
Iron Maiden Seventh Son of a Seventh Son 18
Black Sabbath Paranoid 17
Incubus Make Yourself 17
The Sheepdogs Learn and Burn 17
Imagine Dragons Evolve 16
Incubus Morning View 16
Iron Maiden Fear of the Dark 16
I'm fairly sure these albums make up my top twenty (21 due to ties). Iron Maiden has nine entries.
It's debatable if cover versions should count. For this list, I've only counted the originals (for example, I've twice heard a cover band play Fear of the Dark, but that's excluded).
This doesn't take song length into account. "Heads Up" and "Senjutsu" have almost the same play count. The average song on the first album is barely 2 minutes, while on the latter it's around 8 minutes. So this doesn't really tell me how many hours/minutes I've spent hearing these songs live - but I'm not going to spend time calculating that.
What's on your list?

Two times with Maiden, and at least one, maybe two times with Hail (the metal all stars cover project Tim Owens did like 15 years ago)
