Nice! Happy to have the mighty Maiden Back playing some tunes
I'm familiar with. Last time in 2010 they were great, but
would have enjoyed some more classics! This time they made
up for it!!!! Great setlist!!

Bruce States this was the first Canadian date for this tour.

Stood back this year to avoid fellow concert goer chatter. Was
good till someone lit a port o potti on fire. the smoke of that
was pretty rough. Skunk weed is much better.

From the Ottawa Citizen

"...Which left the intermission question: Would Iron Maiden
be worthy?

Well, even Dickinson, Harris and co. might concede it
was a tough act to follow (Alice Cooper) but they brought their own
toys to compete and had more time to spread their musical
wings across the years.

The Maiden show is a high octane three-guitar blast led
by Bruce Dickinson’s unrelenting movement and profane
cajoling of members the audience to do whatever he feels
they should be doing at any given moment. It’s called
working the crowd and he’s very good at it.

After the grand opening with Moonchild and Can I Play
With Madness, some sound imbalance that was burying Dickinson’s
vocals were dealt with and the concert flowed through one
familiar song after another. Maiden work hard and after
more than three decades, long ago figured out how to please
the crowd – by attending to those geezer fundamentals."
