Me too. Plus I can’t afford going to big gigs anymore. £100 odd quid for Maiden was a push for me.
Hear, hear! The prices are so extortionate that at this rate I will soon be avoiding big gigs like the plague.

The more I think about it, the more I believe we can stop discussing whether this is their last tour.
If there is a farewell gig, it will be London Stadium or Wembley.It's advertised as 25/26, 26 won't be Europe and they aren't finishing their career outside of Europe.

If Bruce asks you to scream you scream.I don't scream. I've always found that idiotic because you're there to listen. I do dance, though.
Oh yes. I used to hang around in a blues club 2 decades ago where obscure bluesbands played.Exactly, my last Opeth concert, I could go get a beer and to take a piss and I still could return right next to stage. An average size underground club, cool, laid back atmosphere, that's kinda the ideal, honestly.
Kanye West did that, tooCan't remember who it was, but there was one frontman who started giving shit to a guy for sitting down but it turned out he was in a wheelchair
Kanye West did that, too
Similar for me - there are a handful of big acts left, artists like AC/DC and Bruce Springsteen, that I haven't seen yet that I would be willing to pay £100+ for, but it would be with the intention of going to see them once and then being done with it. Maiden are the only band that I will shell out for on every tour, and even then only up to a certain point. Other than that I will be sticking to smaller acts and festivals with a good ticket value relative to the lineup.I paid £104 to see Tool earlier this year as I had never seen them live and I was going with a mate who is a big fan, but other than Maiden I do not think I will be making any exceptions in the future (and I will probably think twice before spending a shitload of money to see Maiden too).
Thanks. This is very promising. Cant wait!!Steve's exact full response regarding the upcoming stage set:
Production will be off the charts next year, right?
''Well, it will be very different. I don't want to brag before I watch, but yeah, the drafts I've seen are pretty good - fantastic. We want to do something to break the past, things we haven't done before.''
No backdrops? Big screen/s?
Am I the only one that doesn't think they particularly care if their last gigs were to be outside of England/Europe? They've never seemed particularly sentimental about shows in their home country to me.

Eddie´s gonna get ya!
