2008 Iron Maiden Tour Merchandise

Hi - Can anyone tell me what kind of merchandise is available from the IM US tour besides t-shirts? And what are some of the prices for shirts, tour books, etc? I am trying to budget my money for the Chicago show in a few weeks. Thanks!

I saw them in San Antonio last week and I seem to remember a scarf, koozies, posters, programs, wallet chain, and a $150 soccer jersey. I'm sure there was more and you would think after waiting 45 minutes in line (leaving before I made my purchase because I was afraid to miss the beginning) I would have the inventory memorized.
I went back during 2 Minutes to Midnight and the place was deserted. I bought a shirt and a beer and made it back before the song was over. Next time I'll know better.
Also, shirts start at $40. More than the ticket for lawn seats.

I was at the Houston show. T Shirts were $35.00. I also had covered reserved seats. They were great! The production was the best I had ever seen.

No way I'll be spending $40 for a shirt, especially considering that around half that money goes to the venue. It's enough that I'm paying to be a walking advertisement for the band, the last thing I'm going to do is pay the venue for the privilege. I'll troll around eBay or something for someone selling a shirt at a decent price.

Saw the show this past Sunday. It was fantastic. Going to see it again this weekend.


The t-shirts were $35, XXL were $40. They had 7-9 different styles.

They had 1 longsleeve shirt and 1 hoodie. I think the longsleeve was ~45/50. Don't remember the hoodie price.

There were 2 different soccer style jerseys. One was yellow and the other red/black striped. They were $125.

The scarf was $40.

They had basball hats, beanies, posters, tour books, and a few other things for sale. I didn't catch the price for them.

Had I known they would be coming around in this tour, I wouldn't have blown $40? on a camouflage girlie shirt that I never wear. I HAVE to get me a T-shirt for this tour but I don't know what they'll have left by the time I get there. Can't wait for the show at chicago.
