Good review, but...
The reviewer complains about the rotating tapestry backdrops? Maiden's done that on several tours before, and this is the first complaint I've heard about it. And he didn't appear to recognize the walking Eddie as Eddie ... though that may be partially blamed on how radically Eddie has changed this time, perhaps.
Sounds to me like this guy was expecting spectacle on the order of SBIT. And I'm not saying that expectation is unreasonable ... if Maiden did the 2-story Eddie last tour, why not this time? I was perfectly satisfied when I saw the Denver show, but I can understand the reveiwer on this point.
Maybe it's simply a good thing to see an obvious non-Maiden-expert still loving the show.
