I was not expecting them to be as good as they were. I don't think they do the giant props / huge areanas like that any more, do they? |

I saw it twice last year, and they were even BETTER than they were in 1984! Just AMAZING!!!

Awesome show, and they are back next March. Supposedly, they return with full bells and whistles (bigger stage, bigger Eddie...), but I don't like crowds and I can die a happy man after seeing them live. I'm going to save my money and energy for MOTÖRHEAD next April! |

|  | You don't want to do that. Trust me. Forum Administrator | | Join Date: Mar 2000 Location: atlanta ga | | maiden is an awesome show. first time i saw them they were touring for killers, opening for priest (Screaming for vengeance). even with paul di'anno they were still monstrous.
had 3rd row for powerslave at the omni in atlanta in '85. magnificient. one of the best shows i've ever been to.
haven't seen them live since 7th son (saw every tour from killers to 7th son). really miss seeing them, but i doubt they'll ever make it down here in the southeast u.s. again.

Even if its the same set, it never gets old, but their last tour was a tad disheartening musically, but still an awesome show.

One week to the day after I saw Van Halen in the Garden for my 16th birthday, where Great White got booed off the stage.
I've seen them on that tour, Piece of Mind, Somewhere in Time, Fear of the Dark, and this past one, where I took my 12-year-old to see his first show. Good times!
