Wow. What a show. It was incredible. They still bring it big time. I would love to know the exact amount that was made off of merchandise alone at each Maiden show. Ghost was really good too.

Yeah at $45 a t-shirt and every merch table lined up and wrapped around, it's gotta be pretty steep. That said, they have the best merch around IMO. I ended up with the Killers album cover (always liked that album cover) t with the tour info on the back. Well worth the $45 to me. My FIL bought 3 bootleg t's outside the arena for $50 total.

That is the exact same shirt I got. I love the Killers album Eddie version.

Yep. Man, Eddie is so versatile and badass. They hit a goldmine with that. Megadeth has Vic, but can't think of any other bands mascot that comes close to Ed.

I brought my 12 year old son to the Houston show. He's a huge fan. Amazing show.

and of course we don't get them in New Orleans.

No shite; pisses me off. Texas gets 3 shows (Hou, Dal, SA), but N.O. can't get one. We have the venue(s) and they would draw La, Gulf Coast states, etc. From a laymans perspective I don't get it, but perhaps there's something I'm missing.
I met some dudes from Holland at the Hou show that were going to all 3 Texas shows. Must be nice.

They belonged in the hall of fame a long time ago, and before a lot of bands in there now. A top five all time live show. Bar none.

I don't think they've played New Orleans since the 80s or maybe early 90s. I know they came to Shreveport once in the mid 80s. Maiden is the only metal band I know that has a large number of fans follow them around. You see it a lot with jam bands like the Greatful Dead and now people follow Phish and bands like that for multiple shows in a row. I've heard of many instances of people going all over the world to follow Maiden. It really doesn't matter where they play, they will draw a crowd. Hell they even played Tulsa and now Oklahoma City in back to back years now.

For sure. I've made the decision that if they happen to tour again I will travel again to see them no doubt about it. If I can catch multiple shows in the same area on consecutive nights (like Texas, etc.), I will try to make multiple shows.
I go to a ton of shows much like you and a lot of the same ones it seems, but man I've just had a sense of joy ever since that show that I haven't had in a long time. It was absolutely amazing.
