Some where back in time

Iron  Maiden flew into Melbourne on Ed Force One Tuesday  night for two nights of serious Rock.
GB, his friend Colin and I went to the Wednesday night concert. It was everything you would imagine a 'Maiden' concert to be like.  
90% of the crowd were wearing black jeans and either longhair/a mullet or shaved head.  
The other 10% was split 50/50 into "normal" and "goth/skank" girls.  
Everyone was so excited to see Maiden back in the country 
and they went off.
When Bruce asked Melbourne to scream for him I thought that 
the little hairs in my inner ear would never stand up again. 
I witnessed some guitar playing that was so phenominal and the energy this band has was fantastic. Iron Maiden has fans comparable to other same generation bands -  
They all look pretty mean but are a generally friendly bunch.
 
So begins the year of the bands!  Next we have Rock to Wellington.  Counting down - 5.5 weeks to go!

This is the t-shirt I got :)
