This is the scenario.
Iron Maiden announces a tour. They don't say it, but it's their last ever. I know it, you know it, they know it. Coincidentally, the last date of the last tour ever is somewhere close to you: it may be in Europe, N. America, S. America, whatever. The point is: the final gig is a place where you already saw Iron Maiden or it's close. Moreso, travel and accommodation costs are the same as they were last time, whether you travel by plane, train or bus and whether you stay at a hotel or a sleepover at a friend's house. So, any money you plan to spend on travel and accommodation - it's not an amount you haven't spent on Iron Maiden already, or you're uncomfortable with. Furthermore, you can't go to any other gig. Travel/accommodation costs will be higher and ticket prices aren't that much lower.
Also, you have no idea what this tour will be about. They just announce some generic title (like Legacy of the Beast) and in their blurbs, Steve, Rod, and Bruce don't offer a single song. So it can be greatest hits, usual suspects with a couple of curveballs, or something completely unexpected. You have no clue. The first date is months away and tickets go on sale next week.
There is an e-mail lottery and you've won. In the e-mail you get, you also see ticket prices. It's a bit more than you expected (whether it's seating or standing - your choice). But, it's the last Iron Maiden gig ever. And you have a chance to buy it on time (because once it goes on general sale it'll be sold out in minutes). You have a week to gather the money.
How much are you willing to pay for the ticket to the final Iron Maiden gig?
