Look, I get real life, I do (and Arch, my thoughts go out to you, seriously), but if you're going to spend on ANY show, this is the one to do it. I put in $150, through Stubhub about an hour and a half before show time, and in hindsight, I'd've paid more knowing what I know now.
I know, it's all taste and what not, and I totally agree. But I'm not talking to those that aren't Maiden fans to begin with. ESPECIALLY if you're a fan and haven't been able to see them before, this is, in my opinion , not "just another show"; this is the kind of show that the others are sort of judged against.
