    TIMs in the PAC NW this week!! Wed - Sat!

    Sucks I missed it and I can't make the others. Having a newborn definitely changes plans. I had to sell my Megadeth/Metallica/Testament/Anthrax show tickets, and I was thinking that would be the show of the decade!

    TIMs in the PAC NW this week!! Wed - Sat!

    I was looking forward to this, but I can't get a babysitter. Plus, it wouldn't be too good for me to up out late at night and tired when I have an Army physical fitness test at 0600 the next day. Good luck ladies! I'm sure it will be a blast!

    Tacoma show on 1 October

    FYI to anyone going to the show - Google pops up two locations for the same address. For clarification, it's the location in Parkland near Pacific Lutheran University in what is better known as the Paradise Village Bowl. I guess the place created a food and bar section separate from the...

    CONGRATULATIONS TO LINDA & WANDA !

    Thanks! We were hoping my wife would go into labor at the Maiden gig in Auburn in June. That would have been an experience! I've been keeping my ears virgin for what the new lineup of the lady Maidens sound like, so I'm really looking forward to it. I hope there will be some newer tracks...

    CONGRATULATIONS TO LINDA & WANDA !

    My parents divorced when I was 2 years old. I spent most of my formative years wondering why two people I love dearly could not get along and had to fight in front of me and my brother. As an impressionable youth, I looked to my parents as my most constant example of what life is like and how...

    Anthem Blue Cross can suck my @SS!!!!

    It's been a while. I've been busy the past two years and haven't been to the boards much or trading much. I see the band has changed quite a bit. I hope a new tour in the PacNW is in the making soon!

    Anthem Blue Cross can suck my @SS!!!!

    Me and the missus got hit this year, too. My rates went up with my employer, and her benefits went down with hers. We decided not to be on the same plan with one employer since it is cheaper for each of us to be on our plans. I'm even considering dropping my plan since I'm covered by the VA...

    Hannah Montana in an Iron Maiden t-shirt

    I'm pretty impressed should could actually name three songs. She'd really have impressed me to the floor if she named one of the more obscure tracks.

    Post your favorite photo or story about Aja or Heather you have :)

    I really don't have a favorite story about Aja (or Heather, who I, regrettably, hardly knew). I just know her for making me and my wife feel like we were always special guests to the shows. What's really amazing about it is that she's done that with a lot of her fans. :rock:

    Farewell and good luck Heather!

    Geez. This is really bad news. Maybe the ladies can get JoJo back? I can always don a wig and wear a bra stuffed with waterballoons if you need a temporary fix in a pinch. :lol:

    Maiden in Seattle 6/2/08

    Eddieline and ALF on stage during HCW: www.ryasrealm.com/alfandeddieline.avi It's 150 mb, by the way. It will take a while to download, even if you have broadband. I recommending right-clicking the link, and selecting "save as" so you don't have to continually download it if you want to...
