My Dad took me to my first Maiden show and it changed by life forever. They're gonna love it.

I still remember grade 8 or so a few of my classmates regaling me with their tales of the Maiden show the night before, my eyes were as wide as saucers- likely the World Piece tour

Got some seats on the first level of the second tier but on the side. Probably crappy.

Never been to a Maiden show, they were my favorite growing up.

Had tickets to a show when I was a kid a million years ago and I think opening was Twisted Sister. I decided to stay home and watch the Flames game that was on TV. I didn;t really want to go with my mom.

I believe the Flames game was that snow game that only had like 500 people attend in NJ.

I found it.

Flames did play Jersey that night, but it wasn't the snow game (that was a few years later) although given the quality of the Devils in that era- there were probably 500 people there- at least you were entertained by a 3-3 65 minute tie game! (and yes I had to look that up)

Amigo the Devil was phenomenal. Just an outstanding set. Although he should probably talk/joke around less.

Clutch was crap. Wow they suck. I left after 3 songs. Even the crowd seemed to have no energy after Amigo killed it.

I’ve never bought a ticket just to see an opening act and left without watching the headliner but amigo the devil was that good and clutch was that bad.

You’re way wrong there. The crowd was lame but warmed up (by product of 30 years of fans, half the crowd was easily 40+). The sound wasn’t dialled in to start the set which was a bummer.

Me and the random strangers around me sure had a good time.

Also, the thing that keeps their shows interesting is they don’t play the same 30 songs from their catalogue. Last time they were in town they played lots of early stuff, and generally a higher energy show. This set list was a little more of their laid back staff with some good post 2000s stuff. They don’t rest in the hits, it’s fun.

Fair enough. I was a bit harsh. It just really wasn’t for me.

People pay more than that for NHL, skiing and golf.

Darius Rucker must be hurting mightily for his show on June 1 at the dome. Just got emailed an offer for free tickets through Roger’s. Pretty much had tickets available for the back half of the 200s, rows 11 and up.

Hi, just wondering if any of you know anything about the delayed mobile delivery tickets? Are you able to sell them or even transfer them? I bought two tickets to the Foo Fighters concert in Spokane but just found out I can't get the days off work. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not in the Army- last time they came to town all I ended up with is one bad floor ticket after lots of trying- not looking forward to battling the Ticketmaster bots this time around, I'm sure they are even more advanced these days

Got my Social Distortion tickets, and am humming and hawing about going to see Death Cab on Monday. Been like 20 years since I last saw them.

Oh yeah that's almost every concert now. Very lucky to see a show in that $50-$80 range anymore.
