If they were to come to Atlanta, I'd drive from here. It's only 8 hours. 8 hours for that stage show??? Hell yeah I'd go!

who knows - they might. The 2nd lef of the US tou hasn' been released yet (the rest of June)

Already posted. Sorry.
In some related news there are rumours, that a video bootleg from the Somewhere In Time Tour got discovered. And that the band plans to release it on their next DVD as a bonus.

Great!!!! No Dallas date, Maiden has let me down for the first time in my 15 years of being a fan. SA and Houston is over 6 hours drive from here and I could never go to it. I know that there will be other tours but they will be focusing strongly on the glory days and will perform songs I might never get to hear played live. This hurts and makes me upset but I guess I'll get over it (though it will be VERY hard). If JOP and CIIC don't come to Dallas, then this year wil SUCK!!!!!!!!!

That's not a far drive! I'm doing VA to NY for the Meadowlands show!

It is for me, that is an all day trip and working two jobs with hardly any time off I can't do it. I can't afford to take time off to go to my cousins wedding let alone a concert (and my cousin lives near San Antonio). It is the timing of this that upsets me the most. A year ago or a year from now and I would have no problem making that drive and taking that time off but this year is the busiest year I've had in a loooong time and anything not local is not doable right now.

Anyone else going to the Jersey show on March 14th?

Im going March 14th!!!!

Looking at those pictures they are pretty cool, but whats up with Bruces pants? Another thing that puzzled me was why is Fear of the Dark on the set list?

Bruce likes to wear crazy pants. I think he wore similar pants on either the BNW or DoD tours. Not sur why they are doing fear of the dark, I would have rather had more SIT songs, but it;s agood song that is a GREAT song live.

Where are your seats (or GA) for the show?

my seats are in the 100's all the way across the friggin arena. almost same seats I had when I saw them on long island and i couldnt see anything. but atleats im goin so its all good. where are yours?

THEY MUST COME TO TEXAS!!

I hate everyone who gets to go to this IF I DON'T!!!!

At last night's concert, they said that in May they would come back to Southern California, play 4 shows here and then continue eastward. They said they'd be stopping in Arizona, New Mexico, and TEXAS.

I'm off to bed, get up, pick up my brother then on to NJ for the show!!!!!! Hope we run into each other (probably unlikely with as many people as will be at the show)- there's a big Iron Maiden Online Fan Club tail gate party pre-show, I may hang out there and meet some of the maiden fans!!!!!

i'll try to be on the look out for ya but the chances of finding eachother are probably near impossible. I have a couple of other friends going as well, even some from my band and were all leaving at different times so i probably wont see them either. If you see a white chevy tahoe truck that has a big Phoeinx Reign sticker on both my side windows, a king diamond and a helloween sticker on the back windows thats me =o)

What an AWESOME show! The band was tight, the arena was NUTS and the crowd was sometimes louder than the band! Bruce announced the rest of the US dates. I will be going to the DC show!!!!

Boy, they sure hate the Southeast, don't they? I'm going to try to make one of the LA shows.

Any of you Phoenix guys going to that show?

The show was AWESOME - I hope you can make it to one of the LA shows - this is a great tour. The set list is awesome. Here's a spoiler type hint about a song - Bruce introduced a song the same way he did on live after death (CD not DVD), something what not to do if a bird smurfs on you.

Bruce announced more dates last night from the stage - the crowd wents nuts. He also said that on the 3nd leg, the stage will be bigger with "more monsters" - supposedly giant mummy eddie will return. For the first leg, they couldn't fit him on the plane.

Awesome! What did you think of the show?

They were good. Probably the best performance ive seen them do since the ed hunter reunion tour (which was my first iron maiden show and actually i think my first concert). Bruces voice never sounded better live. I picked up the new tour shirt as well.

I got my tix for the Columbia, MD (Merriweather Post Pavillion) show!!!!

looking to get tix for their only Nor Cal show May 27th in Concord....

They're coming to camden!
