F**king hell guys, I honestly haven't smiled in a while, but these photos have brought back memories for me. I just got a chill through my body as i wrote that!!! F**ken hell, this has made me say F**k IT! Next time maiden come, I'm going to as many shows as i want. They are my favourite band and they make me so happy.
Tazz:
You're a F**king champ. You've got a good partner if she lets you do all of this though. A few questions though? How was the bus trip? I'd love to do that for maiden when they come next. I dont care who its with, it's just an experience i'd love to be a part of.
Also, how the F**k do you take so many photos? How do you enjoy the gig taking so many photos? As you said, i could just imagine how hard that would have been lol!!
Once you are on the barrier and the camera is in your hand there is no where to put it... so just took a bunch of shots through the show, didn't interrupt the show at all... we had a ball singing away and interacting with Steve/Janick... hell I even managed to catch the wristband and get the pick
As for bus trip - it was cool, but I couldn't get Moz and Brian on - was too late notice and it was full up to the point where others rocked up to try and get on and got turned away... also had a mini bus and about 3 cars trailing...
We cruised around a bit, got stuck going up the hill in the pics and so stopped at a park near Sumner... the local brass band was out for a sunday concert with the oldies in the park... we were all on best behaviour... but someone still called the cops... 70 odd maiden fans with drinks in hand must have looked scary... haha.
Cruised back into town later and set up out front of venue. I headed off for FTTB not long after so didn't see the rest.
