Iron maiden's gig cost?

[jam9]

Hi again
Well i knew there are many maiden's fans out there and i would like to share some news with everybody,
I knew a guy use to work with LAMC and this was told by both managements.

Q Do iron maiden loves to play here?
A yes.

Q what will be the price?
A well its a first asian tour the price is US$6000,000 and thats excluding promotion even metallica is aiming somewhere there too.

Qwhy its so expensive could you do a simple show?
A Because its the first far east tour and we must bring our full gear with our very own theaterical sets.

Q could we market this show to our neighbouring countries?
A well can but this will be pricy for them as we knew places like malaysia,indonesia,thailand and phlippines would not be able to effort to pay at that price and have to obey their countries laws too a lot of red tape .

Ok as we see this are the actual words was given from my pal from LAMC but sometimes ourselfs when we heard $75 dollars we do crack our heads why so expensive?

So there its is are we willing to pay $100 to $200 for for one night event?
When comes to cost have to decide carefully and our metal market here is small.

I'm willing

There are some/a few bands that im willing to starve for. And Maiden is one of em. I wont b goin overseas anytime soon, but evn then i know i wont get the time to catch any gig. So my only hope is here, on Singapore soil. So if any of these bands come, $300 to $350 is more than reasonable for a VIP ticket.

hmmm, my bullshit detector is going off. is Japan not considered a part of the "Far East" then? they always play in Japan. heck they're even playing there on the 25th-31st of this month!! so their "full gear" is already gonna be in this region. i've been bugging Laurrieta all year to bring them here after Japan but they wanted a rest before continuing on their European leg.

and even if you meant SOUTH-EAST Asia, they played in Thailand on the Live After Death tour in 1986. yes, Thailand. so close yet so far... and i was too young! anyway the point is it's not their first time in Asia.

$6 million dollars?

wtf?

 

[gutturalpiss]

you know what the problem is? they know China is near to Japan. Or mayb they believe Singapore is Hokkaido sorta thing. So any show in Kyoto, the Singapore clowns can go there easily :lol:

 

[mellapong]

whatever it is, i am willing to pay $100 or $200

 

[purplehaze3691]

$200 x 30,000 = $6,000 000

 

[nitrovo]

$200, pssshhh

Only band i'd pay that much to see is Metallica.

 

[rx7]

6k or 6million sia

 

[khaos]

$200 x 30,000 = $6,000 000

note that it is US$6million

US$200 = around SGD$315

would u guys be willing to pay that price?

for maiden?? definitely. you can always earn more money. but catching the classic maiden line-up, how many times in your life does one get a chance to see greatness? we're talking about metal legends here. the band without which a whole genre of music (swedish metal) would not exist.

i'd only pay that kind of money for Metallica if Cliff were still alive. wouldn't pay that much to see them as they are now.

 

[lilrampage]

is evryone forgetting the sponsors?

 

[AEnimic]

[jam9]

Who's and who?

jam9, your friend used to work with LAMC?

[post edited by SOFT to avoid massive uproar]

Ok i couldn't let the name of that person it is stricly confidential and incl the deals too well the person is working close with laura so those are some of the events he use to let us know first.

On the pipe line we have megadeth waiting for approval on apr07 there will be other shows are added they are trying to engage Trivium and kill switch engage.

Previously there was some uproar on slayers gig due to poor response.
So metalhead fans please support any other major acts taking place here and please show your loyal support.

Because we could see LAMC they are trying their very best to bring the best bands acts on the planet.

Keep rocking.
