Just a general cruise through TM maps shows some are selling like the Big Beautiful Bill and others are "ok." I don't think anyone expected this to light up the box office.

Looks like the Chicago / Tinley Park show isn’t selling well at all.

Both have over-toured. Who that wants to see Alice Cooper hasn't already? Same with Priest.
It's not like you'll get a radically different setlist than the last time you saw them. Or a very different stage show.

The one thing I'll say for Alice is that Shep is smart with getting him in different markets. Not even B or C markets but literally "towns." In Ohio he's played places like Warren, Sandusky, Lima, Troy...

With Priest you do get a radically different setlist as it's Painkiller anniversary. 7 songs off Painkiller. And Solar Angels as a bone for the diehards who want obscure stuff..As you know I'm not a huge fan of Painkiller or Scott's live drumming but this setlist works. Not surprisingly he plays his own songs better than the Binks / Holland tiunes. Saw them this month in Sweden and the place was sold out well in advance. Dalhalla outside tiny Rättvik, 6k capacity only but it's nowhere near a big city.

Are they going to stick with that setlist for the AC dates? I'd assumed it would be more of a traditional "best of" setlist for that audience?

Wait. So they are just ignoring their 1981 masterpiece POINT OF ENTRY?
They should at least rotate in a medley of the side 2 songs...

Outselling Ghost tour every night- nobody likes Ghost anymore
Judas Priest is so desperate for ticket sales -now Judas Priest must do 7 or so from Painkiller era to get the After The Rain and Cherry Pie generation to show up

They're doing Solar Angels this tour, according to LI, and I didnt list Highway, as its a staple. I did put Desert Plains.

Not from PoE but didn't they play Killing Machine on the Firepower tour? That's definitely obscure....
