Default Any Iron Maiden fans out there?

I'm going to see them in a few hours at the PNC Arts Center here in Jersey. Dream Theater is opening for them. I'm hoping that they play a lot of old stuff...last time that I saw them on the Matter of Life and Death tour, they played the entire new album. They were awesome as always, but it would be nice to hear some of the tunes that I grew up on this time around. Their new album isn't even out yet (I think it will be released in August), so I doubt that they'll play too many songs from it, maybe just a few to give us a taste. Either way, I'm totally psyched...time to get washed up and get ready to rock!

Up the Irons!!

Billy... My cousin is part of a Maiden cover band out of Staten Island. Pm me and I can let you know when/where they're playing if you're interested.

Thanks Lisa, but I don't get out much lol...no money. This concert was my summer splurge activity. I'll PM ya soon anyway, I'm sure that they have a website...I may even know of them already

BTW the concert was awesome...Maiden played mostly stuff off of their last three albums, which some folks didn't like (my buddy in particular, who's an old time Maiden fan and doesn't have the last three albums ), but of course they still rocked.

Dream Theater was great, very tight band. I'm not too familiar with their stuff but I was very impressed by them, might even pick up some of their albums next time I have some "extra" dough ha.

waitwaitwaitwaitWAIT!

Dream Theater was opening for Maiden? Cheese and Rice I gotta see if they are playing around here... That had to be an awesome show.

Dream Theater kicks major technical ***.

I grew up on Maiden myself. I love those old bastards!

PM coming Billy.
