Anyone here in Vegas? Heard on the IMFC that the ticket scanners crashed again... good luck...

 

[matic22]

TicketBastard is at it again .

Does anyone know when does Maiden start in Vegas tonight? Just randomly woke up in the middle of the night and might go Periscope hunting (won't post links here of course).

I've found a stream on YouTube that says in two hours, supposedly.

Ok thanks. It makes sense.

For the warm-up here is a great video from Tulsa.

Also hunting for a periscope... can't find any.

The show starts in 1h 50min. Try then.

The Raven Age hit exactly at 7:50pm. They're still on.

Sound is awful. Complete bottom-heavy mush. I'm hoping that Maiden's sound is clearer...Doug Hall always mixes a great show but we'll see how it goes out across the PA. Problem right now is that TRA is just too loud.

I didn't experience any issues with the credit card scanner. Huge line going through the metal detectors but it moved pretty fast all things considered.

Doug wasn't with them on the last tour. Haven't heard who is doing sound this time. Can you get a glimpse at the soundboard?

 

[btx109]

Yeah, it's right in front of me. I'll get a look when TRA goes off in a few mins.

 

[btx109]

TRA just ended, so a 40 minute set. Maiden hits at 9pm.

Martin Walker is doing FOH sound for Maiden this tour. Official time they hit is 8:55pm. Also long-time soundman for Judas Priest and works with Whitesnake & Slash as well. He's been with Maiden since 2012.

For the users that went to the merch booth in Fort Lauderdale, can someone inform me if the Powerslave T-Shirt have a identification of the tour?

the back of the shirt has the Brave New World cloud and "The Book of Souls World Tour"; date or year did not appear at the top (I forget if elsewhere)

Damn! Just saw Rod Smallwood in the soundboard pit...by the time I opened my camera for a shot he was gone.

 

[matic22]

Waiting in line 'till the ending of time if the scanners fail.

 

[Wästed The Great]

Any one that wants to hang out after the gig, we are going to be up the ramp towards the shark reef after. It'll be me, Loosey, bearfan and son, Cornfed, Mr Knicks and maybe Collin if we find him.

 

[Wästed The Great]

Oh, and maybe Mosh??

 

[DJ James]

Sounds like you guys are having fun!!

 

[matic22]

Have fun guys!

And "Doctor, Doctor" just began...
