So I went to see Iron Maiden at Mt Smart in Auckland last week. It rained all day but that only made me rock out harder. The set was fucking amazing and included the epic 13 minute "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" and also all 8 minutes of ear shredding "Phantom of the Opera" and all the other ones I wanted to hear (Hallow, FotD, Evil that Men Do, Trooper, Run to the hills etc.)

They opened with Aces High and i forgot how good that song was. I nearly had a fit when the guitars kicked in and they all sprinted on stage.

They won best live act at the Brit Awards too.

Bruce Dickinson is the sickest front man ever.

Lauren Harris is a certificed hottie, but not very good at singing. I made eye contact with her during her act and im pretty sure she fancied me - so Lauren, if youre reading this send me a PM and ill take you out to dinner.

If you ever get an opportunity to go and see Maiden, take it. Heres a couple of pics i managed to snap during the concert.

Crowd from up high during Phantom of the Opera. I had to go up top and get a drink after being at the front coz i thought i was gonna die (It was during Wrathchild and i dont care much for that song). It looked so awesome seeing the crowd from up there.

Giant cyborg-Eddie took to the stage and fought with the band members. That guy in the suit probably has the best job in the word.

Other notes:
-Janicks stage antics are awesome.
-Nickos drum kit is so big you cant see him.
-Its an honour to have been shot by Steve Harris' bass.
-Guy who got on stage, ran a lap and dived back into the crowd before security got him has an ultra brag on his hands.

That is all for now. I have some Photoshops to post at some time. Not many though. Peace.
