So I have a shot at Row 9 tickets to Iron Maiden for the 16th in Toronto... but it is going to run me 125 bucks.

I've seen them 3 times previously, but always from the nosebleeds... think its worth it?

"There are some things that money can't buy. For everything else, there's Maiden. EXCELLENT!"

Imagine seeing Steve step up onto the monitor to play The Trooper from row 9...

Imagine buying their live DVD for $20 and sitting really close to the TV with $105 in your wallet.

Yeah, but if live DVDs were the same as really being there, there'd be no more touring :P

$125 is a rip-off, I don't care who it is.

I never have $125 to spend on anything, so it's hard for me to dispute that. If I did ever have it though, I'd probably go ahead and get the tickets since money has cost me a chance at big concerts many times :P

The fact that you need to be convinced should already tell you the answer. If you really wanted to see them, it would be worth it.

if you consider seeing them, hope you like the new album because from what I have heard they play it in it's entirety

O GOD WHY $125???

That's just too much. I wouldn't go. Especially if I wasn't able to stand in front of the stage.

$125 to sit down?

I'll raise a hefty "pffft no" to that.

Don't do it. 125 bucks is way too much money to spend on a concert. Unless you're rich, in which case, go.

If you'd never seen them before I'd say yeah go for it. But not if you've already 3 times. Keep the money

I read their set list was the entire new album and like 4 or 5 older songs. No way is this tour worth that much money.

Ya. I was about to buy my ticket for the 11th when I heard this as well. I was like: "Fuck that." The six songs are: The Evil That Men Do, Iron Maiden, Hallowed be Thy Name, Fear of the Dark, Revelations, and one other song. Besides that, its just the entire new album. Shitty, shitty setlist.
