There I am, watching the news on Channel 7 when just before a commercial break, they say that in the news to come, some 80's rockers are coming to Australia. I was instantly galvanized, and rushed to my computer to turn it on so I could record this segment (only about 30 seconds long). Here it is, in YouTube glory: youtube.com/watch?v=9cEv7rNvqEk |

Don't you love that the news shows footage from the World Slavery Tour for the concert clips rather than more up to date clips. Ah, it's all good in any case.

I hate the "80's metallers" BS, they haven't gone away morons!!!!!!
You'd think these press F#@wits would pull their collective heads outta their ass's and work out that a band doesn't virtualy sell out an entire Oz tour for no reason.

Ed Force One is a brilliant marketing tool... i discussed it with Rod and he was overwhelmed by the interest in the plane... smart business really, you have got to respect Maiden marketing, what a machine it is !!!

Their marketing is top notch that's for sure. You just want more Maiden stuff no matter how much you already have.

Rod Smallwood is a bloody smart man. |
