Yeah, that's a pleasant surprise. Not my favorite music but they're still pretty damned cool and they skipped Dallas on their last tour (technically they appeared at a festival somewhere).

Doubt I'll do any traveling this time around, already done that, but seeing a local show will be nice. They've also moved up from the local shed to a proper arena. Normally I'd disapprove, but some AC will be welcomed.

I like how they are actually like 6 weeks apart.  Brooklyn is on a Friday and NJ is on a Wednesday.  I'm thinking I do the NJ show after work and try to get up close and the Brooklyn show I get wasted and take a seat in the back.  I've never been to Barclays so that'll be fun.

Yeah, I appreciate them being spaced out as well. Thinking definitely Newark because it's much easier for me to get to after work, and then if I really like the setlist/show I'll spring for Brooklyn as well.

Not to spoil anything but Steve Harris said the show will not have much changes from last years show.  I'd guess maybe there is one or two song chances, older track staples replaced with older track staples IMO if there even is any setlist change at all.

Ah, good to know. Didn't catch any of last year's shows so I'll have to check out what the setlist looked like.

For a big US tour they'd be more likely to dump one or two of the new songs. Tears of a Clown would be the likely candidate. Maybe replace that with one from the Final Frontier tour we never really got. Maybe they drop Red/Black and add two old songs. In any case it's already a pretty good setlist, so short of dropping Hallowed I don't see them mucking it up too much.

My guess is they take out Blood Blothers and replace it with Run to the Hills.  Maybe move Wasted Years before it.  America loves the classics more than the new stuff, but I am not so sure they remove BoS songs since that's what they are touring.

What's the "Show" like?  Is it pared back like that shed tour from a couple years ago (the only real prop was Bruce's big flag, and no that's not a euphemism) or is it more of a spectacle?   Also, for me, coming from Hartford, CT, should I go to Mansfield (an hour) which is also a shed, or Brooklyn (an hour and a half plus, but it's an arena, I think)?

I saw Sabbath at Mansfield and it was awesome (third row center) but other than the screen in back, the staging was very vanilla.  If it's a full-blown extravaganza I might ask my daughter if she wants to go.  She loves that shit.

Barclays in Brooklyn is an arena, built a few years ago for the Nets.  I've never been, but I've heard it's nice.

As for the show, there's lots of pyros and Eddie.  Nothing crazy, but I thought it was their best stage show of any of their previous tours.

Yeah, I checked out their setlist from the MSG show last year and was surprised Run to the Hills wasn't on there. To me that, Number of the Beast, and Hollowed be thy Name were the big three I figured they'd always keep in their setlists.

It's a real good show. The devil they've been touring with the last few years is awesome. It's a pretty big stage. A fair amount of fire. Great show opening (best they've done, in fact).

As for where to see it, I'd go wherever the better crowd is likely to be. If the floor at Barclays is sold GA, then that would be my first choice. I got to see first hand how much of a difference a good, energetic crowd makes, and GA is a big factor in that.

Yeah, but touring the new material in America has never been important to them. They did their BoS tour, and I think this will be slightly more greatest hits, though not by much. Add to that, Tears never went over all that well anyway.

Yea, EB you got a totally valid point.  I really liked Tears though, I hope they keep it.  I just overall don't think there will be a big change, at most 2 songs IMO.

Also, +1 on the intro, I also thought that was their best intro.

Huh, I did not know that for the Toronto venue, they changed the name from Molson Amphitheatre to Budweiser Stage.  I bet there are some Canadians that are not happy with the name change going from a beloved Canadian beer name to an American beer name.

Catch this show if you can. Saw them this summer. Great show, pyro, fantastic backdrops and lighting. And it's Maiden, off course!  :metal

This.  It's still one of the weakest on the album to me.  Live it just brought the energy to halt I felt.

I don't know if I want GA, though.   I'm afraid I'll lose my shit and try to jump up on stage and hug Dave Murray.  :) 

I've loved Maiden since I saw them open for Priest in '82, and to this day, Murray and Dickenson are two of my favorite musicians ever.   EVER. 

Seriously, though, good point.  Mansfield could be either way (I've seen shows that have a "pit" - Jane's Addiction - and some that don't - Sabbath); I don't know about the Barclays.  How do you know?  See what the tickets are?

You can check ticketmaster, but I already checked Brooklyn and it has a GA floor.  What bums me though is that it is one big floor pit, not two  with one closer and one further back like IM have done in the past.

I may do that.  I'll be by myself, and I don't have to be leaning on the rail, I just want to be within ten, twelve feet of Murray.   I'm hatching a plan here.

Having done this many times in the past, and hoping to again, just make sure you get there early.  You'll be beat by the fan club members who win first to the barrier and then anyone else who gets there before you.  Typically an hour before doors I'd be able to get about 5-10ft away from the barrier.

Jannick Gers turns 60 today. Damn!
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Wow.  happy B'Day to Janick.  What a legend to be performing the way he does at that age and staying so fit.  I know he cops some shit, but I find it hard to see the band without him, I really like the guy and his songwriting.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.
