WORLD TOUR 08 ANNOUNCEMENT - EDDIE GETS HIGH AND GOES GLOBAL


IRON MAIDEN announce their most ambitious and extraordinary touring plans ever -- and are very pleased to announce that this will include Australia for the first time in 15 years!



The 'SOMEWHERE BACK IN TIME' World Tour 2008 will be in three sections, starting in February and March 2008 with the first leg encompassing major concerts in 20 selected cities on five continents in seven weeks including India, Japan, North America, Central and South America, and, of course, Australia, opening in Perth on Feb 4 and continuing through Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane:

SOMEWHERE BACK IN TIME, AUSTRALIA 2008

February :-
Monday 4th, Burswood Dome, Perth
Wednesday 6th, Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne
Saturday 9th, Acer Arena, Sydney
Tuesday 12th, Entertainment Centre, Brisbane


The tour then continues with more concerts in North America in late May and June before finishing with a third leg in July and August encompassing major stadiums and festivals all over Europe. During the tour the band is expected to play to well over one and a half million fans and travel close to 100,000 miles.

In an historic first, Iron Maiden, their 60-strong crew and support staff and over 12 tons of equipment will be travelling around the world en masse for the first leg of the tour in a specially commissioned and converted Astraeus Boeing 757 decorated with Maiden and Eddie designs! Vocalist Bruce Dickinson, who is a qualified Airline Captain flying for Astraeus Airlines, will pilot the plane on its epic mission, flying over 50,000 miles.

Comments Bruce Dickinson, "We had the idea last year of converting a jumbo jet into effectively what would be a flying 113 ton 'splitter bus' for touring and we have been working seriously on it ever since. It's pretty complex but in the end we were able, with a lot of help from Astraeus Airlines, to overcome all the technicalities of customising the plane for our purposes. We are taking out the back 10 rows of seats to fit in a customised cargo hold that we can use again in the future if this jaunt works. This is in addition to all the standard storage holds. By taking band, personnel and equipment in one form of transport it makes all the touring so much easier and overcomes the logistical difficulty of people and equipment going in different planes. We can even work out exactly how big our carbon footprint is and take care of that responsibility! We will be packing as much of the show into the plane as we possibly can for this first leg and intend to give the fans something very special to remember. And it allows me to combine 2 of my greatest passions, music and flying!!



To tie in with forthcoming 2008 releases on DVD of the classic 'LIVE AFTER DEATH' and 'MAIDEN ENGLAND' concert videos (more details coming soon) this tour, aptly entitled 'SOMEWHERE BACK IN TIME', will revisit the band's history by focusing almost entirely on the 80's in both choice of songs played and the stage set, which will be based around the legendary Egyptian Production of the 1984-85 'Powerslave Tour'. This will arguably be the most elaborate and spectacular show the band have ever presented, and will include some key elements of their Somewhere In Time tour of 1986/7, such as the Cyborg Eddie.

Steve Harris comments; "On the last tour we opened the show by playing our new album 'A Matter of Life and Death' in its 80 minute entirety. We thought we needed the challenge and it proved the right thing to do. However, it can be hard on the fans playing so much new material and we really appreciated the superb support they gave us. So now l guess it's payback time. It's tremendous to be able to use the profile of the DVDs to do what is effectively an 80's show. It will be enormous fun and by changing the approach to the songs we play tour by tour it keeps it fresh and interesting for both the band and the fans alike. l think 'Powerslave' was an incredible show with the Egyptian theme and look forward to seeing it all again myself. We have been planning this for a few years and hoping to take it to Australia -- so we are all delighted that it has now worked out. I would also like to say that we are all are very grateful to our loyal fans in Oz who have kept the Maiden flag flying all these years and we are sorry to have disappointed you for so long. Thanks and see you there"


Rod Smallwood, Iron Maiden's Manager, further commented; "Following Bruce's various hints from on stage this last year about our plans for 2008 ("We are taking some time off to build some pyramids!"), fans have been pestering me for details of the tour and especially asking which songs from that era will be played. That may be as easy as a run in the hills but we will keep our aces close to our chest on this issue. I know it would only take a couple of minutes but at this stage of planning, I'd have to be clairvoyant to know what they will do. I'm sure though it will be no revelation for you that we intend to make up for those wasted years by visiting a large number of hallowed metal venues around the world. Historically 'Powerslave' was an incredibly important album for the band and it would be madness if we didn't give the fans a taste of the full on Iron Maiden show from that time. With our jumbo there really is no rime nor reason why the band cannot now visit fans almost everywhere as many have been real troopers to have waited this long. Heaven only knows what the band will choose but if l could and did tell you now l would have to shoot you! You'll all have to be patient and see. But it will be spectacular. No fear!!"


Historically, this will be Maiden's fourth Australian Tour having first toured in 1982 when 'The Number of the Beast' was Australia's number one album, then again in 1985 with the original 'Powerslave' show and most recently in 1992 with 'Fear of the Dark'. However a great deal has happened with the band since then, especially in recent years when ticket sales have continued to explode around the world as the band's loyal fan base continues to flourish. As Maiden have never had airplay or much video channel exposure anywhere in the world their popularity spread mainly by word of mouth on the back of a legacy of many great albums and an awesome live reputation With the ever increasing power of the internet the Maiden legend has fired the imagination of new young fans around the planet, and, although their audience spans two generations, it is now predominantly a young one, inspired by the massive legacy and influence of this unique band (and, of course, Eddie).

To allow Iron Maiden fans in Australia to get right up close to the band,the fan club are organising advance booking of tickets for members and running a special draw for them whereby 60 winners and friend at each show will be given first access to the venue and be first to the stage barrier. Full details will be on www.ironmaiden.com.

Tickets go on sale to the public 9am Thursday 27th September, but members of the Iron Maiden fan club get exclusive first access to purchase tickets from 12 noon Thursday 20th September through to 12 noon Monday 24th September. More details soon!

Hier heb ik best zin in, benieuwd naar de setlist.

De setlist kun je al raden, geen nummers die ze van 1984 t.m. 1990 ook niet speelden.
Maiden is voorspelbaar.

Aardige prijslijst.

Zeker als je eerst naar Engeland moet....

hehe, cool. Ik heb de afgelopen week de 7" singles van Running Free, Women In Uniform, Sanctuary, en Twilight Zone gekocht. Nu alleen nog de 7" singles van Fear Of The Dark-live en Purgatory, en dan heb ik ze allemaal. Best wel een hoop trouwens : Ik heb er nu 29, dus dan zijn het er 31 in totaal.... Als je de 10" van "The Reincarnation..." meetelt, dan dus 32, en van "Man On the Edge" zijn er alleen maar een 12" en ladingen cdsingletjes uitgebracht, geen 7". Jammer.

Ik heb er trouwens nog wel een andere 7" weggelaten, namelijk Wasting Love. Die is in Spanje alleen naar radiostations gestuurd, dus die was niet voor de verkoop bestemd. En van The Soundhouse Tapes heb ik een re-issue/bootleg, het origineel is me te duur. Er zijn grenzen !

Owja, ik heb ook nog de PD van "Be Quick..." gekocht, er schijnt namelijk een hidden track op te staan. En die staat dus niet op de cd versie.

Hoe voel je je nu?

Op 12 mei verschijnt 'Somewhere Back In Time: The Best Of Iron Maiden 1980-1989', een verzameling absolute metalklassiekers. Om dat te vieren trekken Harris, Dickinson en co de prijzenkast wagenwijd open.

Dit kan je allemaal winnen:
- een vlucht voor 2 personen met Ed Force One, een Boeing bestuurd door de zanger van de groep waarin de hele groep, de crew en het materiaal getransporteerd worden tijdens de hele huidige wereldtournee. De vlucht gaat op 9 juli van Londen naar Lissabon. In Lissabon mag je het concert van Iron Maiden bijwonen. Wij zorgen ook voor overnachting in Lissabon én uiteraard ook voor het transport van Brussel naar Londen en van Lissabon terug naar Brussel.
- 5 duo-dagtickets voor Graspop Metal Meeting (waar Iron Maiden dit jaar op zondag speelt) én een plaatsje óp het podium tijdens een nummer waarbij jij ook mag meezingen. Dat is wel even wat anders dan een klassieke meet & greet.

Wat een ruk cd, 'Somewhere Back In Time: The Best Of Iron Maiden 1980-1989', onverstelbare geldklopperij.

Vind ik niet. Wel als er onuitgebracht spul bij op zou staan.

Zo kun je het ook zien, maar liever dat dan dit, voegt niets toe, alleen de geweldige cover.

Dan is het toch juist geen geldklopperij? Gewoon de zoveelste verzamelaar ja. Zou ik ook doen als ik Harris was. Er moet brood op de plank

Is er hier iemand die mij een event shirt van iron Maiden van het optreden in Assen wil verkopen? Liefst large of XL Mail me op svartsyn4 @ googlemail.com

Voor zover ik weet, staat er daar geen hidden number op.

ff Googlen levert op:
"Bayswater Ain't a Bad Place to Be"
Niet zo zeer een hidden track, maar meer wat flauwekul op het einde van het nummer "Space Station No 5.".
Beetje Black Bart Blues idee?
Sowieso een beetje lastig om een track te verbergen op vinyl, niet?
Easteregg lijkt een betere term. Unlisted is ie iig.

---edit---
Bij nader inzien, als ik bekijk wat zich volgens internet allemaal als hidden track kwalificeert, moet ik wellicht toch aannemen dat de term "hidden track" hier toch op zijn plaats is. Alhoewel het dus geen song betreft.
