From on stage last night (Sunday, March 16) at a packed Air Canada Centre, Toronto, IRON MAIDEN vocalist Bruce Dickinson announced a series of arena shows in Western Canada for their eagerly anticipated "Somewhere Back In Time - World Tour 08". With the tickets for Toronto having sold out months in advance, the band has revealed that it is returning to Canada this summer for further dates in the West in a number of cities it has not played for many years.

"Somewhere Back In Time - World Tour 08" Canada summer tour dates:

June 03 - Pacific Coliseum, Vancouver, BC
June 05 - Saddledome, Calgary, AB
June 06 - Rexall Place, Edmonton, AB
June 08 - Brandt Center, Regina, SK
June 09 - MTS Centre, Winnipeg, SK

Tickets for all these shows will go on sale to the public Friday, March 28. A special pre-sale will be made available exclusively to members of the IRON MAIDEN fan club, for three days prior, commencing Tuesday, March 25. All shows are staging a special "First to the Stage Barrier" privileged early admission for members of the IRON MAIDEN fan club through an exclusive draw.

In response to the Maiden Western Canada Tour:
I was at the ACC last night, and Bruce said assuredly that people from Toronto area wouldn't have to travel as far as Winnipeg to see them, ( He said this with smart alec smile - so there may be a T.O. show on the bill!!!!!!!!!!!!)
