Yeah Garrick I didn't mean to imply that iron maiden made a million per show, just that I was surprised they were one of the most successful touring acts in the history of music... Under reflection it makes sense but I'd have never in a million years have guessed them if I had to make a top 100 list just for this year when they are often #1 or close to it
I knew some people who used to organize concerts and and generally the bands and venues are hired out and it's the promoters who take all the risk and all the monies
there are pathways to them getting paid much more but a massive amount of risk of losing tens of thousands if a show gets cancelled or if it doesn't sell etc
I have no idea of the logistics of a band taking control like that, risk aside, it may not even be feasible. I do know a startup in Indonesia and they are trying to cutout the promoters and crowdsource concert funding for both cheaper tickets and higher band revenue but unsure if it's been working at scale
Really like that band btw, think pitchfork put me on to them way back when
