Anyone going? Anyone one planning on getting the new album? I hav a feeling it's going to be a good one.
If you are planning to attend a show, where at?

Well I imagine San Bernardino would be the closest one. I would like to go, if possible. I'm sure they're not as good as they once were. Are they still touring with original members?

I`m looking to see them this year and yes all the originals are still there, Only non original is Janick Gers but he`s been with the group since 1990....so he`s as good as.

I'm looking forward to their new album. I just got my tickets and holy crap am I excited. My first concert... Iron Maiden. I'm more of a Di'Anno fan but Bruce is still f****** good!! Iron Maiden will never die!!! Up the Irons!!!

Well, technically they are touring with 2 original members but yeah, very long standing members at least.

I cant speak for what they were like live in the 80's but they are a fantastic live band to this day in my opinion.

Definitely be seeing them when they tour the new album and planning to do two shows, one here and one in Germany if possible. Still a major blip on my gig list

Ah have you never seen them Jackhammer? I was hoping you could make a comparison between the modern day live band and the 80's live band they were once were.

Well, you'll love them anyway mate.

No never and considering they started it all off for me is criminal. It will be rectified with the new tour definitely.

I've seen them a few times but i've only been into them over the last six years or so really. I'd have loved to have seen them in the 80's.
