Travelling for music is the most awesome thing in the world. I absolutely love travelling for gigs. And yeah, you can make a holiday out of it. A little sightseeing, a gig and a constant smile on my face.

Also lets not forget that this is their best selling tour in ages, it would make sense they want to milk it to death.

so the moral of the whole story is that teletubbies is better than Maiden or something?

The E.P and the debut album. Their first two releases. After that it all goes downhill...

Nice. Seen them 3 times when they were starting out, I probably wouldn't go these days since I expect the setlist to be new material heavy.

I think the main issue is that they started as an awesome band but each new album delved into pop more and more. I can hardly find any metal influences in their music now. And Motley are a joke anyway. Never understood how they became so big.

I actually do like the first 2-3 albums of Ghost. Elisabeth is such an awesome song.

Hating Maiden is our birthright! Also no one else has the right to hate them.

when your music is so shit, you got to do something to sell those tickets... it's a pop show, so no surprise relying on visuals.

you're absolutely right. in greece there was no way i could wear a band tshirt at work. hell, they even gave me a raise when i got a hairccut!!! in london though, it's a whole other story. as an infrastructure engineer i am not cusstomer facing and i can go to the office however i want. so band...

Could be. What do you mean released by the end of August?

same for the French one. Regretted not getting one.

We all know that the Olympic Stadium in Greece has a "flexible" capacity. 70 to 75K tops for massive gigs and then it scales down depending on what the promoter expects to sell. 87% of released tickets sold is a pretty good result and proves the gig was scaled properly. Not sure which other...

do you have a link for the official boxscore? Regarding venue sizes, so what, you think they undersold themselves or that the promoter did not want to make money? If they booked smaller venues it's because the promoter did not believe there was a much bigger demand to justify a bigger place...

He isn't though. Anyone can pull numbers out of their ass and say "hey, I'm right". But can they somehow back these numbers? That's a whole other story. The link I posted from touring data says the gig had an 87% attendance which means 30K tickets and not 40K. That is a pretty well scoped...

whatever you say boss....

whatever you say boss...

Well, as we say in Greece, we got the longest of the three...

According to https://touringdata.org/2019/10/03/iron-maiden-legacy-of-the-beast-tour/ it sold 26.000 tickets which was an 87% capacity. Better than Sofia, Wien, Zagreb, Belgrade, Bucharest, Budapest, Belfast, Arnhem, Zurich and Berlin which were all at the same leg.
