Hi Gooners,
will wear my 20 years old Maiden Shirt tonight and listen to Iron Maiden live and open Air in Oberhausen/Germany.
Should be a great night out!

Metal Legends. One of the best live bands I've ever seen. All superb musicians.
Except for Janick "one solo repeated over and over" Gers; the most over-rated guitarist on planet Earth.

To be fair was not the best Maiden Gig I've been to. Was Open Air but the location at Oberhausen was a little bit small, also the organization was terrible..at one time they were running out of beer
Maiden was ok, but they have missed to play some classics including 'Hallowed be thy name'
Still was a good day out with the lads...
Cheers,
Thomas

Seen him in Dublin in June, a lot of people were disappointed by his set, (slow hand clap at one point) which included a lot of his latest album.
I enjoyed it, it was a good gig, but could have been even better with the inclusion of one or two of his classics.
As for Iron Maiden, even in my metal days I never really got into them, all that posing and fist clenching was a bit too "spinal tap" Would go as far as to say I can't stand them.
