Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Iron Maiden

I'm pretty sure when I saw them that they opened with Run to the Hills.

hello, hello, anyone there? lol

I'd go all old school Metallica fan and turn my back for that song, if I didn't have to p*ss or get more beer.
Damn I fuggin' hate that song.

BoS tour #1, we missed seeing Ed Force One come into Chicago.
Damnit.

But some dude that worked at a ramp or something took vid

Saw them many years ago with Winger I think!

Damn, Bruce laid that thing down perfectly, hardly any smoke from the wheels hitting the tarmac.

Thats pretty cool!

Winger.............

A little more Ed Force One

IIRC everybody in the fan club got their name put on the plane.

Only the badass survive.

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Old pic, sub reg in a glass

One of my all time favorite bands from back in the day...

Never got the credit they were due as musicians or as professionals, IMHO.

Murray is smooth and bluesy, Smith is wickedly technical.
Harris is nothing crazy bass wise..........but all the songs are long and exercises in brutality.
Think marathon runner.
And hes hittin em a lot more than people think, 2 fingers of death.

Gers ..........might be great. I dunno,
Showmanship is there, but don't care for it.
Have always been a Smith fan.
Grew to like Murray more.
McBrain................I'm not into drums really.
My kid says Burr had more soul.

I still blast the old DiAnno stuff.

Should break out the "Ed Hunter" video game and play that tonight.
On their website they had another "Donkey Kong" type of game.

Plus there's the "Legacy of the Beast" computer/phone game.
My kids likes it.

Bruce tries to cheer up some folks having a rough time

gives a concert in a warzone

Agreed, they get written off by many just because they are a "heavy metal" band, and therefore assumed to be just loud and untalented. The whole band is quite talented, and Bruce's vocal's are great.

Bruce's voice is different.
Maybe an acquired taste.
He was the air raid siren for sure.

When he split after Fear of the Dark...........Maiden was in a rough way.
Blaze sucked.

I mentioned to my guitar bud that they should have gotten RJD.

He just looked at me and said "that would have been mighty".

RJD could have done all of Dianno and Dickensons stuff.

Fear of the Dark.............knowing that Bruce left after that, listening to that song (last song on album)..........makes it pretty sad.

But then he came back in '99...........Ed Hunter.

First row. Pretty bad ass.

Think before the 2nd Book of Souls show the small "pit".............before declaring it a credit card deal (no scalping) they wanted 15 for a ticket.
Not 15 hundred either.

I know some folks paid 1500 for the floor at Book of Souls 1.
If people kept their fuggin phones down, center and around 10 back...............figure it;'d have been worth a K.

But not more than that.

I met some guys that do like 3 shows in a row, diff states.............and spend a ton of money.
Good for them


Tix for this coming show are on aisle, left of center section.Lower pavillion but near the back.
Not bad for 150.
Not great, would have been OK if 10 closer.
