2017 Maidenfans.com Meetup discussion

[Cornfed Hick]

It's done. I got four tickets, General Admission for Vegas show. One for me, one for @LooseCannon, and one for @SinisterMinisterX , plus an extra, which can be for @Heretic if he wants it or @Wästed The Great or anyone else who claims it and pays me for it. Price per ticket, with Ticketmaster fees, is $117.84. PayPal would be ideal, or PM me to arrange payment.

Thanks to our anonymous benefactor for supplying the presale codes!!

Re hotels, since the concert is at Mandalay Bay, that makes sense. I plan to book a room at the Delano, which is the non-smoking, non-casino hotel in the Mandalay Bay resort complex. There are also less expensive options nearby, like the Luxor or Excalibur.

Also, I plan to arrive on Saturday, as I can't handle Vegas for more than two nights.

Think we will be coming in Friday night and heading out early Monday.

2 days there really is plenty for me as well

 

[SinisterMinisterX]

Saturday arrival sounds good to me. One night in a casino, another with Maiden.

Arrive Saturday, leave Monday?

 

[Cornfed Hick]

Arrive Saturday, leave Monday?

Correct. Will get in around 1:00 on Saturday.

[LooseCannon]

Correct.

What time Saturday do people generally arrive?

 

[Donner]

Got my Vegas tickets, would definitely be up for some kind of meet up. We're planning on flying in from DC late on Friday and leaving first thing on Monday.

 

[LooseCannon]

Looks like Saturday night would be the logical time to start meeting up.

 

[Night Prowler]

Holy fuck, those tickets are very expensive.

 

[Cornfed Hick]

Not compared to Black Sabbath, they're not.

 

[Night Prowler]

Black Sabbath was supposed to play here in 2012 and the most expensive tickets were about 42$. Same price for Maiden last year. #ThirdWorldBenefits

 

[LooseCannon]

Black Sabbath is like $120 for nosebleed in Montreal.

But you get value for that - $120 to see three dinosaurs in their natural habitat? Way cheaper than visiting Jurassic World.

 

[Heretic]

OK, so that means I can get one for @Heretic, but not his friend, if the limit is indeed four. I assume they will go on their own, but please advise.

Yes, I think it would be easier if we buy our two tickets together. I expect you would have no difficulty finding someone who needs one ticket. If not, let me know and I'll buy one from you.

That's nothing, The Eagles were 250$ for nosebleeds. Front row tickets were upwards of 5k.

 

[Mosh]

I'll be staying either at Excalibur or Mandala Bay.

@Cornfed Hick did you happen to see prices for non GA tickets? What's the price range looking like for this show?

Non GA was 117$ for me

That's too much money for just one song
