[QUOTE=Quiksilver26;13462983]Yeah, I wasn't really expecting another album that soon.. but I'd absolutely love to see where they go from AMOLAD. IMO of course, they couldn't do much wrong... unless they added something like... say a [b]bagpipe[/b] player :lol:. And even that would sound pretty badass...[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Quiksilver26;13464265]Eh I spent most of BFMV's set getting beer, but what I saw wasn't too bad... not exactly my favourite kind of music, but they played well atleast.[/QUOTE]

We went down on the floor just so we wouldn't have so far to go when Maiden came on. I ended up getting into it with some emo-goth fag. A bunch of pit ragers and one of them happened to catch me right above my eye. Chaos ensued. :smash: :smash:

It was a really good show overall. The last 30 minutes was better than the first hour. I still am not a huge fan of the setlist, but the energy and stage presence made up for it. Maiden played their as[size=2]ses[/size] off. Nicko split his bass drum skin so Bruce walked around and talked for a good 5 minutes or so while a drum tech came out and changed it. I was able to get pretty close. I ended up being just about 3 feet (just shy of 1 meter for those metric people out there) away from the wall. The stage set-up was really cool. The tank with Eddie sticking out was great. I'd definately go see them again.

AatG has bagpipes:confused:

:( i really can't seem to pick them out... about how far in do they start??

Okay. Lord Ollie has his points to make.

1. AMOLAD live is going to be incredible. I stand by everything Nicko said, people should stop ****ing whinging, the album is amazing, and it's going to be amazing live, so if you don't like it, **** off.

2. The new video for DW is really cool. It's like a Resident evil game, but with big metal spider things-awesome.

3. There will be other tours, there will be the next "era tour" either next year or the year after, they are making at the very least one more album, Steve said he always wanted 15 albums, then he would consider what to do there.

And now Steve said he'd like to make more than 15 albums.

I can't wait for the next era tour.

Those keyboards are the closest maiden has gotten to cheesy though.

Old, haha. they did that becasue the Germans( ithink) wanted them to play "live" but play to a recorded tape. So the boys decided to have a little fun.

lol, they sound NOTHING like Bagpipes :p.

And trust me I know.

Bagpiping ftw.

But, tbh, if Maiden had a good bagpiper or two for a song, they could deffinatly do something insane.

Old, but it never gets old hehe.
How come Adrian didn't join in on the fun?

Since we're posting videos...here's one from Tuesday's show. Nicko split his bass drum skin so the first couple minutes of the video is Bruce talking. Then it goes into The Longest Day. This is actually one of the better videos I've found of the show. The sound is really good and the video is pretty clear.

I had worked my way almost all the way up fron by that time. When Bruce was talking I was just about 5 feet away from the wall and a little to the right of the stage.

Was anyone at the October 13th show? If you noticed someone up front on crutches acting like a douche, that was me. :)

Anyway I liked it a lot. Although it's ridiculous to want to hear all of the classics and nothing new, it's kind of sad that they're not playing awesome songs from albums like Brave New World. Would've made my night if they stuck The Mercenary or the Wicker Man in there someho.

That was a cool video dude. Bruce's rants are one of my favourite parts of seeing Maiden... It's funny seeing such a little guy get so worked up :lol:

Holy ****....Holy ****....

I saw Maiden 2 days ago in Chicago. ****ing awesome concert. They placed AMAZING!:amaze:

The sound quality and attitude of the crowd and Maiden was just fantastic. EVERYONE in Allstate was into it.

Just wow...I've seen many, many concerts and this one goes to the top.

:chug:

Yer i'm going on the 22nd. Not sure if thats the last night or not.

I'll be at Earls Court on the 23rd.

In recent news, I played a cover of the Trooper (unrehearsed!) infront of about 30 people on Tuesday. That was the first time I've ever played infront of an audience, and it was great!

Awsome, an excellent first song to play! Yeah I think I'm going to the 22nd, its well annoying cos its not the last night any more, and i couldnt get pit tickets. Grrrrrrr.

I'm going on the 23rd.

I'm pretty sure I've got general admission tickets.

Classic. About the 4th time I watched it, and the first time I've noticed how much they changed around.
