I can imagine that they would be so sick live, but were there any girls there?

i have a video too, but it was so fucking epic

bruce sounded amazing, and he climbed the stage and sang a wicked ballad.

they had a giant eddie that shot fireworks out of his eyes, it was so dirty!
iron maiden is the best band ever live, i'll fight anyone about that

so I saw them live last month, just never got around to posting until fear of the dark came on shuffle today, and it reminded me of just how awesome of a show it was. They quite possibly could be the only band that's been around that long that still look and act like rockstars, and can pull it off.

Saw them in Ottawa a couple weeks before that and it was sick. but did you also find Dream Theatre to be shit? maybe it was the fact that it was 35 and humid that day and they played when it was still light out, but they barely played 45 minutes and it was all around a disappointment

they opened for the show I saw, and I agree. though extremely technical musicians, they just have no stage presence and didn't do anything for me.

I saw them live and they were DREADFUL. like really really really bad. they can't play or sing for shit

really? they werent amazing in terms of singing, but by far better than most... it seemed like they would be kinda on and off tho, like they would do really well with some songs then bad for the next one. they just have some really really really good songs.

but they played amazingly well i thought, if there was one thing that stood out it would be how well they played...and the constant fireworks..

One of the sickest shows I have ever witnessed. I screamed sooo goddamn loud when that 12ft tall Eddie came on stage and murdered a solo. And I thought Dream Theater was sick

well I bet if you saw them in the 80's or even 90's it would be ridiculously amazing... but they're just too old to be impressive any more live

while i really like metrics music, i really doubt it would beat something like an iron maiden concert. concerts like that are just full of chill college bro's in sandles and cargo shorts going just to be seen.

i cant stand most concerts people our age go to, ive been to alot, and 99% of them suck ass. its just some people on stage singing while waving their arms and everyone in the crowd nodding their head for like 4 hours straight, its so fucking boring. at something like an iron maiden concert people are goin crazy as fuck, and you dont have a bunch of chill bro's getting pissed at the non lax attitude, and the actual performance is much more entertaning when there are fireworks and insane prop's, stage's, costumes etc...

I saw Rob Halford last saturday at Heavy Mtl (singer for Judas Priest) along with a few other metal legends (slayer, megadeth, testament etc...) and it was sooo sick, never been so pumped in my life.

im sorry, that was unneccesary.
but i immensely dissagree with your comment.
metric puts on the best live show of any band, ever.

I've seen them 3 times and I disagree. one of the 3 is in my top 20 shows ever (probably about number 15) seen but the other 2 aren't and therefore are not the best live show of any band

I'm jealous. I got to see both ACDC and Guns 'n' Roses here in norway this summer, and i'd love to see Iron Maiden sometime.

I can't decide whether Rush or Maiden was the sickest concert of my life, both were EPIC (and fully deserving of the word epic in caps to describe them). Niel's drum kit is copper anodized and is beyond sexy.

someone with the maiden revivals go there and like wave them around or something aha.

get those skis signed by the band and by K2 athletes would be really cool.

are a bunch of worthless douche bags who suck at making music and trash talk every other band just for being different. and despite dressing like hipsters, they said in an interview they hate hipsters. kings of leon need to stop existing.
