If you're not a huge Iron Maiden fan, then ask somebody who is. They'll tell you that those songs are not the cream of the crop and that a HUGE CHUNK OF THE OLD SONGS ARE IGNORED.

Do I make more sense now?

How dare they only play one song from the pre-Dickinson days! That's my favorite era! (Not really, but I'll play along...)

Disappointed? Sure. But, I knew that going in. I did the research, and based my decisions on what to expect. It's still Iron Maiden, and had a great time at the shows...

If my memory is correct, wasnt that the year they played with Dream Theater all summer? That setlist looks like what I saw & YES, those of us who did our homework knew what to expect....& it was a monster of a show !!
 
I rolled the dice ahead of time as Anathema would have been the top draw. I decided not to go and saved myself two people's worth of expenses because I believed that band wouldn't go back that deep. Unfortunately I was right.

Wait, you weren't even there? Then why are you complaining?
