isn't it sold out though?

 

[MindRuler]

Evergrey and Maiden on the same bill...waw.
Tom will be thrilled.

It is challenging putting in South America, Asia, Australia all into the final leg after already touring from May till October. Do we think Maiden are actually going to visit all these territories in October / November?

Maybe without Nicko they feel they can be more ambitious?

Maybe the mid July - late August break is enough to recharge for the second part?

I think they’re going to do LATAM in october, early november then a week break between those shows in australia-asia which will probably be late november mid December

Absolutely buzzed for Anthrax with Maiden in Athens, haven’t seen Anthrax live before so this will be monumental!

Awesome to see that Europe got them on some shows as well! In my opinion they should be opening every single show if it went with their schedule

I think the way they toured future past in 2024 anything is possible here, was 3 months nonstop.

Athens sales looking good till now.And there is still a lot of people waiting for their Christmas Bonuses to get tickets.If the prices were a bit lower they could have a sold out.Still however, it looks that they are gonna play in the biggest croud they ever had in Greece.Anthrax is a cool boost also.

They had 40k in 2018, highly doubt they will be able to pull 40k but you never know

Actually i think they'll get 50k this time.

 

[ShadowOfTheGods]

Actually i think they'll get 50k this time.

I hope so, but it's a long way from 20/25k sold so far to 50k.

 

[DorotheaMe]

What, only Germany gets Megadeth on their last tour? That would have interested me.

 

[Nomadd]

I hope so, but it's a long way from 20/25k sold so far to 50k.

I think 30k is more realistic, so it'd be good.

 

[ShadowOfTheGods]

I think 30k is more realistic, so it'd be good.

30k would be just okay. I think they will do 35/40k, more or less same as Guns n Roses.
