There was a 5 minute sustained full volume cheer from the crowd which put Bruce on his ass in awe. - Wed, 4 Jun 2008 10:17am

First song - 2 Minutes to Midnight

This was my first time seeing Maiden and I must say it was more than I expected. This show was what I thought I missed in my 20's.

Simply amazing. - Wed, 4 Jun 2008 10:18am Edited: Wed, 4 Jun 2008 10:19am

OUTSTANDING!

The band sounded unreal and the crowd was easily the loudest and most into a show I have ever seen.
Like Linc said...the 5 min. constant scream with EVERYONE's arms raised was a awesome sight.

I have seen them many times in the past and this was the best one hands down.The band looked super happy and were def. feeding off the crowd.

Good times! - Wed, 4 Jun 2008 1:23pm

Probably the best show overall that I've seen. A fuller and more enthusiastic crowd than in 2000. And the band seemed to be having actual fun (and not in a "Yeah... it looked like you guys were having a lot of fun up there" kinda way).
Excellent effort from a band that could easily have gotten away with just phoning it in. - Wed, 4 Jun 2008 2:13pm

yeah, easily the best concert i have ever been to. on the floor right in fron the whole time, it was unreal.

i got ALOT of amazing video, that MAY find its way to youtube, but last time i upped vids of that nature [Heaven & Hell & Megadeth] i was forced to remove them by Warner Music.

And YEs Electro quarterstaff afterwards was SO amazing.

check the Interview [part 1] I did with Drew in the new AU.

also got alot of video from that, that most DEF will find youtube.

Last night was easily the best of my life. - Wed, 4 Jun 2008 7:09pm

some time in the relative future it may be a possibility,

I'm anticipating at some point a warning to remove them from youtube, so sometime it may be possible once I get around to editing it together i'll let you know

I did go a little crazy uploading though, so theres about 8 or 9 on there now, run to the hills, hallowed be thy name, fear of the dark, powerslave [3 parts] and a few others - Thu, 5 Jun 2008 6:57pm

Good show overall and with a few extra moments (cat scrap? on the floor. Bruce didnt sing, stood and watched for much of the end of the song and then verbally intervened on those involved). I think the second hand herb must have got to him although he didnt mention or complain about it, excellent! - Fri, 6 Jun 2008 2:58am Edited: Fri, 6 Jun 2008 3:49am

unfortunatley i didnt get any video of that, I was down to like 6 minutes on my camera - I wish my 2nd 1gig mem card didnt crapo out on me a few months ago, 1 gig just isn't enough. I had to delete a video just so I could get Hallowed recorded.

I saw mr. Dunn filming the gig all night, hopefully some footage is put onto the Iron Maiden movie he has in the works! - Sun, 8 Jun 2008 5:54pm

At least I hope he has an Iron Maiden movie in the works, at the very least a DOC.

also, an updated playlist of all my iron maiden videos can be found here. I've arranged them in order they appeared [with about 6 or 7, maybe 10 still left to Upload]

newest additions are Wasted Years, The Crowd knocking bruce D on his ass, Number of the beast & more!

Cool, i didnt notice that. Heard about a show recently Bruce was supposedly annoyed by smoke and mentioned it to the crowd or similar. Figure if he was gonna complain anywhere about smoke it would be in Vancouver but he had good things to say about Canada of course and they were diggin the vibe in the ol PC besides the scuffle on the floor. Speaking of fire, explosions after the show we heard from outside while walking back to the truck. Didnt think much more of it at the time and until browsing some footage of it the other day. - Tue, 24 Jun 2008 1:06am Edited: Tue, 24 Jun 2008 1:13am
