Classics Reborn

Damn if anyone ever wondered whether Maiden were still relevant in today's market these figures show they are still huge.
$15mill gross in 9 gigs total. Obviously costs have to come out of that (and possibly a fee to the support act Killswitch Eng.) but they are some massive numbers. Good work if you can get it I suppose.

  • Madrid, Spain on July 14 – $4,797,916
  • Hannover, Germany on June 30 – $2,311,161
  • Paris July 5-6 on – $2,189,356
  • Krakow, Poland on July 27-28 – $2,173,988
  • Arnhem, Netherlands on July 1 – $1,646,254
  • Milan, Italy on July 9 – $1,444,708
  • Manchester, England on Aug 6 – $1,111,545

Paint by numbers radio metal. Every song either starts of singing then goes clean or starts heavy then clean. No substance.

Oh, sounds like the kind of band my niece would like....but alas I can't talk music with her any more, she gets offended by everything I say. One of these people that thinks everything else is shit but hates being told her own music is shit.

Haha, yeah I noticed that. Not juicy enough.

I hope all those whingers on Blabber took notice. After weeks of blaming Blabber for making KK look like a dick (by printing what he actually said) Blabber has listened and not printed every article they could find. Of course it could be that no one at Blabber saw the original interview too.

But damn they need something to whine about! :rofl:

There was a story about Ace and how much he 'cost' Kiss when he quit too. I was surprised how many people were ready to shit on Ace given the number who also shit on Gene. I actually thought people would be praising the guy for supposedly costing Gene and Paul $7.5 million.
