Guess who's touring?

I just found out that Iron Maiden is on a worldwide tour! Hot Damn!! Is anybody going to one of the shows? They are in my area on June 18th. The last Iron Maiden concert I went to was Powerslave in 1984. Now I've got to convince the wife to go with me. Those were the good ole days!

 

I'm expecting a bunch of " Iron Maiden? Who are they?"

 

At the powerslave concert, which was held at the Capital Center for those in the d.c area who remember that place, eddie was dressed up as a pharoah(sp?) and his head almost touched the roof trusses. Amazing.

 

I will see them in Albuquerque, cant wait!!!

I was thinking Celine Dion

 

I saw them doing their Killers Tour as the warm up band for KISS. That was back in the early 80's.

 

Yay Eddie! I had Eddie buttons on my jean jacket in high school if that tells anyone anything....let the laughter commence..... I liked him best with long hair though....

 

Couldn't find one with a jean jacket!

 

My Wife and I MISS having rock concerts here in the San Francisco area. This place doesn't hold an avenue for it anymore 'cause all the cool people like us left and all dat's left are the UPTIGHT ones! (Her family's all here so she don't wanna bail-so here I stuck

 

I'd love to see Iron Maiden! Not a fan of metal but Iron Maiden is an exception. i bet the tickets are gonna be high as hell

 

Run to the Hills!!!!! Ya I was planning on going but they sold out in about 10 minutes here in Calgary. DAMN!

 

The beast is Back! Iron Maiden Rocks.
side note: just saw Rush for the third time this year a few weeks ago.

 

Hey did Rush do the song "ghost of a Chance"-that's my favorite song of theirs

 

they sure did.......my fav is Natural Science.

 

Cool-how was the show....effects-sound etc. I've never seen them live-I imagine they absolutely kill>
