I'll be there no matter how far I have to drive. Beating cancer is something that should definitely be celebrated with 60K+ people, all screaming "MAI-DEN, MAI-DEN, MAI-DEN!" UP THE IRONS!!!!!

Book of souls was awesome and I'd love to see the show but I'd prefer if they added a CT date. Fingers crossed.

I am sorry to offend any iron maiden fans or there family members on here but i just don't get the hype about this band, i only think they have 4 decent songs in there whole career which is a very poor strike rate for a band that has released over 100 songs, the songs they release have nothing outstanding even most of the nu metal bands have better solos and play faster than them.

I'm not a huge fan of Iron Maiden myself, but here is a list of their songs that I find to be there best, and all much better than "decent".

Running Free
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Number of the Beast
Run to the Hills
Hallowed be thy Name
Flight of Icarus
Die with Your Boots On
The Trooper
To Tame a Land
Aces High
2 Minutes to Midnight
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Wasted Years
The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner
Stranger in a Strange Land
Can I Play with Madness
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Tailgunner
Run Silent Run Deep
Bring Your Daughter... To the Slaughter

So there's 20 songs at least.

As I'm getting more and more drawn to the power in clean vocals, I appreciate d***inson's voice much more than I did as a youth.

YES

Definitely seeing them in Tulsa! I'm really excited for this. Seen them once in Dallas before with Dream Theater, and it was a hell of an experience.
