19/10/2004 IRON MAIDEN ON THE ROAD NEXT SUMMER FOR A HELL OF A TOUR!
Iron Maiden will be back on the road touring in Europe next summer with a series of Stadium and Festival headline shows.
The full routing is in the final stages but the first three shows are announced now as they go on sale very soon. These are the 50,000 capacity Parc Des Princes Stadium, Paris on June 25th , the 55,000 capacity Ullevi Stadium, Gothenburg on July 9th and Hartwall Arena, Helsinki on July 6th. Support will be announced at a later date.
As manager Rod Smallwood explains; “The new double DVD, The Early Days, covers the period of the first four classic albums – Iron Maiden, Killers, Number of the Beast and Piece of Mind – and this gives us a fantastic opportunity to give the fans a set with lots of materiel from those great albums. Every time we announce a tour there's wide speculation among the fans as to which songs will be performed and it's always hard to please everyone as they all have their personal favorites but this time we're going to be including some songs which we haven't played for quite some time which I'm sure will get our fans very excited.
This tour round Europe will be the biggest we have ever done in terms of the number of fans we will play to so we want to make it very special. We are taking these first four albums and tours as the theme for the Production of the show and will be featuring some of the ideas incorporated in the early days of the band, particularly on The Beast on the Road Tour and the World Piece Tour. However everything will be state of the art on the technical side of screens, lights and PA. This is going to be huge and a unique treat for our fans….and anyone else!!!”
Says Bruce Dickinson, ”The Dance of Death Tour' was a very theatrical stage set and performance but this will be back to a full on Metal spectacular. We've always put everything, physically and mentally, into our stage shows and this will be no exception. People are back into REAL live music now and we want to make sure that the Maiden shows are never surpassed and an incredible experience for everyone there! It's going to be a lot fun.'
Tickets are available from the following retail and online outlets from the on sale dates listed for each date and we suggest to avoid disappointment that fans order early. During the last two tours some of the biggest shows were sold out in just a few hours so we recommend checking local radio and press and the official Iron Maiden website often. Members of the Fan Club Iron Maiden FC should also check this for regular updates on Fan Club privileges around ticket purchases.
More dates will be being announced shortly as and when they are confirmed and fans should regularly check here for tour updates, news and links where to be best able to buy tickets.
