I’ve been the same, so when he text me this morning to say he had a spare ticket I snapped his hand off, didn’t really wanna spend £70 on one, but they might not tour again and the show looks awesome from what I’ve seen

In relation to future tours, Steve Harris says in the latest Metal Hammer that the band will start writing a new album soon.

“We’ve got this cycle going on. I’m pretty damn sure we will do another album, and then all well and good, we’ll go out on tour to back that up.

How long that will go on for, I don’t know. We’ve been talking about this kind of thing for the last 20 years, but as time goes on, it becomes more of a reality that one day we may not be able to tour anymore. But I don’t want to think about that. You’ve got to enjoy the moment.”

Enjoy the gig, Rik. Wish i was going.

I was in exactly the same boat as Justin when i saw the set list.

Yeah, I read that about the next album, still don’t think they’ve got many big tours left in them

I would imagine two more albums then one last set of stadium shows to say farewell. Probably about five years to go in total.

Although, as long as they remain fit and healthy, then who knows. The band aren't actually that old in comparison to some. The Stones have had rave reviews this year. Charlie Watts is 77.

I'm at the 02 on Friday. Standing. I'll be there early. Straight to the barrier

T'would appear that this weeks issue of Kerrang is an Iron Maiden special

You’re in for a treat, we thought they were better than when they played Leeds last year, not a single dud in the set and the stage show was amazing!

Also, unbeknownst to me beforehand, we visited Nicko’s drum shop in Manchester before we went to the arena because the man himself was there signing stuff and chatting with the fans so I bought the cheapest drum head I could find for him to sign

N.B wont let me upload photos from my phone on Tapatalk so I’ll have to post them when I’ve finished doing the lessons I rescheduled because of the last minute chance to go yesterday
