Isn't that just written to scare people off? How are they supposed to see whether someone who has bought tickets with a code is also an FC member? How are ticket sales supposed to be tracked so personally? Maybe we have someone who is experienced in this?

No, not the nephew. Someone more spectacular for the best band in the world. If there could only be good chemistry and respect for the style and legacy from a relative, pretty much all bands wouldn't work.

And I wondered what this spectacular, unprecedented stage show was supposed to be! Of course something like this on the catwalk: Janick gets the most difficult parts. He's even more flexible this year than last year, his knee is very straight when he puts his leg on the box - very nice. He...

For me, there are various indications that point to a continuation of the tour in 2027, but none that point to retirement.

We had already clarified that in the "18th Studio Album discussion" thread: 2025/26: part 1: 9 albums 2027/28: part 2: 9 albums Otherwise it all makes no sense - like Maiden doing their last show of their last tour not in Europe etc., no.

But I have a hard time believing that all contracts were made at the beginng of 2024 already as the promotor indicated. https://www.estrepublicain.fr/culture-loisirs/2024/09/19/iron-maiden-au-malsaucy-billetterie-contenu-du-show-jauge-tout-ce-qu-il-faut-savoir That would mean they didn't even...

Yes, and it means more time to launch advertising campaigns/promotion if the tickets don't sell well.

Of course! Besides, being the Iron Maiden frontman at 70 would be the perfect challenge in the eyes of a guy like Bruce.

Are these the prices for Gemany?

Yes, I said that too. 2025/26 part 1, 2027/28 part 2. I don't believe the "It all will end soon" anymore. Of course, they have to stay healthy. Accidents and health emergencies can thwart the best thought-out plans.

What is the best theory on why the announcement and ticket sales start so early?

Is this promoter a reliable source? The tour planning completed in early 2024? That seems implausible to me.

But there are hardly any gaps and the tour starts in Budapest.

Yes, fire the one who brought in that name. Will it be so bad that we'll run for our lives just to get away from the stadium? :dancinggeek:

The earliest announcement and ticket sale ever. No documentary announced, New theory: They need money, as soon as possible. :D

In my opinion, that is not how casual fans decide at all. They just see that Iron Maiden is on tour and want to see them (or not). Sometimes they complain about the setlist after the show though...

No, they can't play the new songs only for the rest of the world (not for the European fans). This is the opposite of "the end": Reunion songs plus new songs in 2027/28.

Because the second half of their career will be covered in 2027/2028. Does anybody have a reasonable theory as to why this tour will be announced earlier than ever before?

Who has a reasonable theory as to why it's being announced earlier than ever?

In my opinion, Jannick gets far too little praise for how much more youthful dynamism he gives their stage presence. If a trained dancer were to teach him a trick or two for the anniversary show, I'm sure he'd pick it up quickly, because he has talent (unlike Bruce).
