Apologies if this been posted before. This is amazing work!

I think this is great! :cool: What a cool experience for some of the fans. What other rock star of his stature would do this? It's awesome to see how much he is excited and into what he's doing now.

So you buy a concert ticket, then you buy the "backstage experience", then you buy the "soundcheck experience". How much do they charge for the "bathroom experience" when you gotta go for those who hit the pub early?

I've lived in the Atlanta area since I was 7 and have been a hockey fan for 50+ years. I've suffered through the loss of the Flames and the Thrashers. The NHL has always been last in the big four (NFL,MLB,NBA) in America for a long, long time and I feel part of the reason is the fighting. Many...

Advancing age and/or health issues affect memory. I will be 59 in a few months and I'm starting to experience it myself. I have no issues if a vocalist needs to use one. I would think Bruce would need one if they ever did The Parchment, heh. I did see Steven Tyler was using them on their last...

Shows in the USA are still a long way off. Should pick up as we approach the Fall. I know I wasn't going to buy a year in advance. Especially if I can't say for certain if I will be able to make the trip to Charlotte.

Yep, Richie's is the better solo. No question.

The US is starting to do more hard rock/metal festivals but still nothing on the scale of Europe. I don't think any of them match the headliners for Powertrip. Too bad Ozzy had to withdraw in what could have been his final live performance (don't know if he's still saying he wants to perform...

If General Admission wasn't in another State I would have gone for $600... /shrug

Really? Anyone in America who listens to Rock knows these two songs. They are stalwarts on Classic Rock radio. Maiden, not so much. All the acts are from the 80's except TOOL which formed in 1990. Just how young do you think this crowd was?

No it was biggest metal show in the U.S. in many years. It was a big deal

I agree with you but this was the exception. This was a once in a lifetime event that justified a different setlist, IMO

Precisely why they should have mostly played their well known songs. This was a unique gig and had they given a shit they should have adjusted the setlist to go over better with a largely non-Maiden crowd. They had 2 months to prepare for it. But Maiden do what they want, for better or worse.

Powertrip certainly proved this.

I'd love to see KK and the Falcon together. I wouldn't miss KK's Priest at all though.
