Steve Harris rules. It will be a great show, I'm envious. Enjoy!

Setlist, not in order:

Churchill's Speech
Aces High
2 Minutes to Midnight
Number of the Beast
Trooper (ugh)
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Powerslave
Moonchild
Can I Play With Madness
Fear of the Dark (ugh)
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Wasted Years
Heaven Can Wait
Run To the Hills
Iron Maiden
Revelations

I think that was it. Bruce's voice was GREAT. "Scream for me San Antonio!" He also jokingly said "Scream for me Long Beach!" Maybe the best show of theirs I have ever seen.

Jannick only played 4 solos, which was a nice treat. I've got a few vids and pics to upload, but they prolly look terrible.

They did a Texas-only shirt...I should have bought a bunch of them. Silly me.

More later. GO SEE THIS TOUR.

Nattie, I did buy a shirt...the one shown above. I stated that I should have bought several of them for profit purposes.

Probably not all of them. Do they re-issue some of them?

Awesome! I agree with you about "Fear of the Dark" not one of their best songs. Also Jannick man he sucks why is he still in the band? The pictures rule thanks for posting them. I was going to go to the show in Chicago on June 11'th but as it turned out I'm oncall that night so I won't be able to see them. I've seen Maiden about 5 or six times in the 80's and once in 2003 with Motorhead and Dio. Not to brag but I met Steve Harris backstage in 2003 and shook his hand (the hand)!

Up the Irons :D
Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid.
