i grew up on iron maiden but man did bruce dickenson turn into an arrogant **** in his old age.. im sure the show was ser,i just cant get over him calling out the kid smokin reefer at the show a few weeks ago. "im tryin to work up here dude"..
Bruce has always been an arrogant prick and a nancy about his voice so I can see him saying something stupid like that. However he was having a time w/security last night and it was hilarious. It was **** crazy in there. It was the second sold out night in a row in one of their favorite venues so they brought it hard. The crowd was just as nuts. 2 bonfires on the lawn with people jumping over the flames was unbelievable.

Transylvania (Tape played during opening video montage) Churchill\'s Speech Aces High Two Minutes To Midnight Revelations The Trooper Rime of the Ancient Mariner Powerslave Wasted Years Number of the Beast Heaven Can Wait Run to the hills Can I Play With Madness Fear of the Dark Iron Maiden E: Moonchild The Clairvoyant Hallowed Be Thy Name
HOLY ****!!!!!!!! I have seen Maiden on every tour since 1982 except the 2 w/ Blaze and I have to tell you this was the second best I have ever heard them and honestly the best is probably just that due to nostalgia. They were that good!
Hearing these songs I grew up on now as an adult brought so much new meaning to them it was ridiculous. In the middle of Wasted Years I found myself in tears as I realized yes I am living in my Golden Years and Life is **** awesome!!!!!!!!
2 Minutes to Midnight is more relevant now than it has ever been and to hear Ancient Mariner again 23 years later and have it still give me goosebumps says alot about this band\'s songs.
Brought the Eddie mummy back had the Cyborg Eddie and the playing was top notch as usual with these guys! Steve Harris had Irvine Meadows bumping with Bass Leads all over.
Bruce was in good voice and had plenty of energy to **** w/ Security.
Dave and Adrian were spot on and Jannick just kicks ass.
Nicko was inset w/his drums but man that guy can wail on the skins!
It was so awesome to look around and see people of all ages rocking the **** out to Iron Maiden. This band still brings it like it\'s 1980!
Not many stops left in the U.S. but MSG is coming and if you like Metal at all you had better get your ass there or you will regret it.
