Was wondering if anyone knew any info behind a live version of The Clansman where Bruce tells McBrain not to give him any shit and blames the the fact that it's raining on him during the beginning of the song.  Also during the middle of the song, Bruce sez "YOU FUCKERS IN THE BEER TENT OVER THERE!!!!" and the crowd sings "NOOO...WE CANT LET THEM TAKE ANYMORE" then Bruce sez to the crowd "I WANNA HEAR THESE FUCKERS OVER HERE!!!"  The energy between band and crowd is amazing and would love to know the venue/date of said show.  If it makes it any easier, I can email the song to whoever wants to try and identify the source. Any and all help is greatly appreciated!!!!

Thanks In Advance!

UP THE IRONS!!!

Dynamo Open Air (Nijmegen, Netherlands, June 3rd, 2000). I was there, the first time I saw Maiden outside, at a festival. It rained very hard and long! I had some coat which became like 10 ten times as heavy. :)

It was an awesome experience. Quite some people were sheltering in tents and Bruce noticed it, of course.
 
It's a great bootleg, but I was always annoyed at Bruce's overexcessive use of vulgarities, which kind of spoiled it for me.
 
It was for me as well the first time to see them outdoors that day. The whole day had been a perfect hot day. Too bad that I spend most of the time in or near the tent where the smaller stage was.

By the time that Maiden was to play it started to rain seriously. Forostar coat or no coat (I did not have a coat with me, thinking of it I even didn't bring a goat with me) I got as wet as I could be. Swimming makes you less wet!!!!

But all worth it. I remember Kittie (like the Spicegirls but different) fun but not the quality like Sentenced. Good memories even more so because I was there with my brother and he is the one that introduced Maiden to me.

So thanks Clansman73 for bringing back those moments.
 
Sorry for my delay in posting (computer issues) but I wanted to extend my sincerest thanks to Warhurst, Perun, & Forostar for providing some background on a version of The Clannsman from Dynamo Open Air Fest Jun 3rd, 2000!!   :yey:

Warhurst: Glad I could take you for a walk down memory lane!  that show must have been AMAZING!

Perun: Sorry that Bruce's expletives put a damper on things for you....but from what I could gather from everyones replies and Bruce's banter with the crowd, It seemed like he was just tryin to get people fired up and into the show...try and take their minds of the rain that might have put a damper on the energy of the show.  I'll be honest....I thought it fit well with the way the music was building up.

Again thanks to all of you!  Happy Holidays to you and yours!

UPTHE IRONS!
