They blew of NZ again, for the third time in 3 tours. They haven't been here since '93 or something.

Since Ozzy Osbourne was more loyal to his fans and actually came here, I went to his concert and because both concerts were a month apart, I couldn't afford to fly to Aussie to see Maiden.


Rime is a good song, not my fav but definetly good. It has room for improvement though.

They're only playing one UK show this tour which kinda sucks.

I was lucky Ozzy played here last year and Maiden this year so it gave me chance to save up money and go to both so thats exactly what i'm doing lol.

I just really like long songs for some reason, alot of my all time favorite songs are over 10 minutes long.

Alterbridge are playing at the UEA in Norwich (Norfolk, England, Uk) in November, but because I have money saved up for materials such as pieces of Titanium and PEEK, I won't be able to see them. :(
If Dream Theater were to play in the Uk again though, I'd be right there. The last concert I went to was a DT one in Newcastle on June 9th 2006. But anyway, I'm not a great lover of iron Maiden...Actually I can't stand them :lol: They're songs sound all the same to me, not as bad as Dragonforce though, jeez.

I missed out on all the good concerts over the last 3 years. Black Label Society, Ozzy Iron Maiden and even AC/DC came back and did a few small gigs in Melbourne that I missed :cry:

You're an Alterbridge fan too? I'm saving my money for when they come back to a place somewhat near where I live...

Strange coincidence!
I was at the mall today and I saw their poster with show dates and went WOW! :shock:
Then I noticed the date was like 6-18-08. And I was PO'd

I hadn't heard they were touring even. 8)

EDIT: Wish you'd made this post last week! :(

I don't think that Alterbridge are touring, they're just playing in Norwich (few miles from where I live). I desperately want to go, but I have other stuff on mind, and afterall...A concert doesn't last forever like a creation does.

Run to the hills is a brilliant song but not one of maidens best imo
