Good show. Looked like Maiden brought out the old Seventh Son of a Seventh Son stage set, with a few tweaks. Aces High, Two Minutes To Midnight, Run To the Hills...all were great. Megadeth had the place rocking with Peace Sells.
Lots of kids, though. Really surprised me, but you can tell some dads taught their kids right, because they were into it and singing along. 10 year old in front of us even got in some head banging. |

Sub-optimal setlist.

You were hoping for Rhyme, weren't you?
Overall I enjoyed it. I had never seen them live before. I was amazed at how well Bruce's vocals sounded. His range is impressive considering his age and how long he's been at it. The entire band sounded great, too. Definitely worth it. And good lord, Megadeth was LOUD. They had the place jumping. Not enough Eddie, though. |

When they came through DC last year with Alice Cooper they were using the set list from Maiden England 1988 with a few tweaks ie added Fear of the Dark and took out Hallowed Be Thy Name, added Aces High and took out 22 Acacia Avenue.
Cooper sounded really good for his age. Bruce really kept himself in shape and I don't think he was a smoker so he can still hit most of the notes he could in his prime. I really wish they would take a page from Rush's Time Machine tour and just go out and play their "hits" for a tour. Heck, if they need to take a half hour break in the middle like Rush does, I would be ok with that if they are playing a three hour set list. |

Oh I am sure there are songs from every from that they never play live for various reasons. For me I like 'No Prayer for the Dying' and 'Run Silent, Run Deep' but I understand why they don't play them live as they are not the most popular.
Then again if they just played the whole Powerslave, Somewhere in Time, and Brave New World albums as a concert, it would be worth the price of admission. |

No "Hallowed By Thy Name" is a major bummer, seeing as its the best heavy metal song ever composed. Anything off of the Fear of the Dark album NOT named "Fear of the Dark" is a mistake to include. I appreciate the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son focus, though; even if it meant that post-2000s Maiden material got neglected. |

I was hoping for "The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg", but I knew that one wouldn't make the list. Was somewhat surprised that nothing from Brave New World or A Matter of Life and Death didn't make the set, but obviously they were sticking to their better known stuff. Still, fun show. I am very glad I was finally able to see them. |

If they would have added that- the set list would have been perfect. |
