i saw Iron Maiden at a pretty small venue in like 1997 (with Fear Factory)...Greg, was that Avalon?

they were cool, but i see what you mean about some shows requiring the theatrics...just not my kind of thing, i guess.

i saw that tour- wasn't that with that guy blaze bailey? they played a small venue in chicago too (the vic) and fear factory were kind of decent live.

the other time i saw maiden was the fear of the dark tour w/ COC & testament at a big outdoor venue

i LOVED that maiden show we saw alex. it was in 1996. and blaze was ok on it. i mean it proved to me that maiden could play with zero pyro and theatrics and still kick ass.

the up-closeness probably made it cooler though, no?

 

[Baliset]

totally. i mean also with big shows it depends on the sound too. maiden otudoors in milan sounded amazing but indoors at MSG and the Worcester Centrum they weren't as good imo with the sound.

hah yeah! that was the first show i've ever seen where the dudes all run to the back of the stage, look at each other, and then charge up to the front and stop at the edge with their backs to each other and start ripping away on their guitars!

might have been better on an arena stage, but still: awesome.
