Iron Maiden

Iron Maiden at Hershey — The Greatest Band. Period. 🤘 I’ve been to a lot of concerts over the years and seen some incredible bands, but last night at Hershey was one of those nights that reminded me exactly why Iron Maiden will always be the greatest band ever to me. There’s just something different about seeing Maiden live. The opening notes hit, the crowd comes alive, and suddenly you’re surrounded by thousands of people who know exactly what you know — you’re about to experience something special. More than 50 years into their career, these guys aren’t going through the motions or living off what they did decades ago. They still come out and absolutely own the stage. Watching Bruce Dickinson is worth the price of admission by itself. The guy never stops. Running around the stage, working the crowd and still delivering those vocals — it’s hard to believe he’s been doing this for more than four decades. Then you’ve got Steve Harris driving everything on bass and Dave Murray, Adrian Smith and Janick Gers delivering that unmistakable Maiden guitar sound. And, of course, Eddie. The stage. The backdrops. The lights. The theatrics. The songs. Thousands of people singing together. There were several moments last night when I just looked around, took it all in and thought, this is why I love this band. That’s what makes Maiden different for me. Their music has been around for a huge part of my life, but somehow seeing them live never feels like I’m just going back and reliving the past. It still feels exciting. It still feels powerful. And it still makes me want to see them again. There are plenty of legendary bands. There are plenty of bands that have sold millions of albums and filled stadiums. But for me, there’s Iron Maiden — and then there’s everybody else. Last night in Hershey just reinforced something I’ve believed for a long time. Greatest. Band. Ever. UP THE IRONS! 🤘🤘🤘

All the bands were great! The atmosphere was great! But in general I think it left a lot to be desired. I was lucky enough to have done a package with coach travel. I'm reading that car related attendees had an awful time! And in fairness Knebworth house really isn't easily accessible. With hour and a half plus merch queues, hour queues for food and even long queues for the museum experience gear it made for a day where you had to pick your times appropriately. We probably missed a good deal because we decided to sit and watch the music we were there for! Got to love Maiden though! #Uptheirons

I got to know who iron maiden is before I got to know the essence of living. I've seen them several times live, now it was my first time in 8 years. The set list and the show were perfect fit for old maiden fan. And megadeth were my band in my teenage years, and saw them again after 6 years. I can't express how positive this show was. Of courseboth bands are pretty tired, and you can feel that. Their performance was weaker than the one 10 years ago in 2016 but they are still doing very, very well.

Assister à leur concert à Paris La Défense Arena le 20 juillet 2025 fut une expérience tout simplement monumentale, un pèlerinage pour tout fan de heavy metal qui se respecte. Et laissez-moi vous dire, ils n'ont pas déçu. Dès les premières notes, l'énergie était palpable. La setlist ? Un vrai régal pour les puristes et une introduction explosive pour les néophytes, avec "Ides of March" et "Murders in the Rue Morgue". Chaque morceau était une claque, un voyage à travers des décennies d'histoire du metal. Des classiques intemporels comme "Fear of the Dark" et "The Trooper" ont fait vibrer l'arène de milliers de voix unies, créant un chœur épique qui résonne encore dans mes oreilles. Et quel bonheur d'écouter leurs titres épiques les plus longs, véritables épopées progressez comme "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" et "Seventh of the Seventh Son". Le show était visuellement spectaculaire, avec des écrans qui évoluaient à chaque titre, transformant la scène en un champ de bataille médiéval ou en un vaisseau spatial intergalactique. Mais parlons de Bruce Dickinson. Ce n'est plus un secret, c'est un titan. À son âge, sa performance vocale est tout simplement surhumaine. Sa puissance, sa clarté, son endurance... C'est comme si le temps n'avait aucune emprise sur lui. Il a couru, sauté, interagi avec la foule, et chaque note était parfaite. C'est un frontman comme il n'en existe plus, un véritable maître de cérémonie qui captive l'attention de chacun du début à la fin. Voir Bruce virevolter avec le drapeau britannique pendant "The Trooper" est toujours un moment d'anthologie, mais cette fois-ci, il y avait une intensité supplémentaire, une urgence qui rendait le moment encore plus viscéral. Et puis, il y avait le défi de la batterie. Le remplacement de Nicko McBrain est une tâche colossale, et la pression était immense. Pourtant, le batteur qui a pris sa place a livré une performance phénoménale. Il a non seulement respecté le style unique de Nicko, avec ses rythmes complexes et son énergie inépuisable, mais il y a aussi apporté sa propre touche, une précision chirurgicale combinée à une puissance brute. C'était un témoignage de la résilience du groupe et de leur capacité à s'adapter sans jamais compromettre la qualité. Le groove était là, la force était là, et la cohésion avec le reste du groupe était impeccable. C'était un véritable tour de force. En somme, ce concert de Iron Maiden à Paris La Défense Arena était bien plus qu'un simple spectacle. C'était une célébration de la musique, une démonstration de puissance et de passion, et la preuve que certains groupes ne vieillissent pas, ils se bonifient. Iron Maiden a une fois de plus prouvé pourquoi ils sont des légendes vivantes, et je me sens incroyablement chanceux d'avoir pu en faire partie. Up the Irons!

We were led to believe our tickets included the VIP Trooper package because we were seated in the VIP Trooper section. However, we did not have the Trooper package and were a bit disappointed to learn this after entering the VIP section. Being on the right side of the stage, we did not get the view of the screen behind the band. Venue should have ensured that the rear screen was synched up with a couple of screens to show the whole crowd what was behind the band. We flew internationally to be in Madrid for the show. Iron Maiden performed spectacularly.

+ Amazing set + Roughly 2 hour set + Iron Maidens on stage energy brings bands 20 years to shame + The pyrotechnics were amazing + Really cool animated backdrops + The 2 Eddie appearances + The Show was great I was supposed to see Maiden in my early teens in 90's but for some reason it didn't come to be. But two days ago I finally got to see them and it was one of the best shows of my life! I've read comments from other people about the crowd being dead. That must have been further back! Where I was standing right up by the stage and as far as I could see in any direction the crowd was energetic and into it! Maiden themselves were on fire! Setlist: 1 Murders In The Rue Morgue 2 Wrathchild 3 Killers 4 Phantom Of The Opera 5 The Number Of The Beast 6 The Clairvoyant 7 Powerslave 8 2 Minutes To Midnight 9 Rime Of The Ancient Mariner 10 Run To The Hills 11 Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son 12 The Trooper 13 Hallowed Be Thy Name 14 Iron Maiden Encore: Aces High Fear Of The Dark Wasted Years There were many highlights including: The appearances from Indian Eddie and Soldier Eddie Powerslave Phantom Of The Opera Rime Of The Ancient Mariner Run To The Hills The Number Of The Beast Hallowed Be Thy Name Iron Maiden 2 Minutes To Midnight Aces High Fear Of The Dark I've cried tears of joy, something that only happens from truly special shows!

Que se puede decir de la más icónica banda de heavy metal de todos los tiempos! Fue mi sexto recital con la Doncella, y se sintió distinto a todos los demás, ya que el escenario no era de los que nos tienen acostumbrados, (igualmente de lo mejor) pero con escasa pirotecnia y mucho más sencillo. Ver a todos sus integrantes ya mayorcitos, da la pauta que pueden llegar a flaquear... ¡¡Nada más lejano a la realidad, siguen aplastando al público tema tras tema!! que debo decir que fueron en su mayoría temas poco tocados en vivo o algunos por primera vez como el mítico Alexander the great. Fueron dos horas épicas! con emociones de ambos bandos tanto del público que no paraba de vitorear y aplaudir a los ojos llorosos de Bruce ante tamaña demostración de afecto de los fans! Realmente siguen siendo la banda para mi más completa, compleja, variada y sin comparación de la musica moderna heavy metal... ¡¡Espero al nuevo recital que prometen dar en unos años como el mejor de la Historia de La Doncella de Hierro!!

Im sad and happy at the same time. I had to wait 38 years to be able to watch Maiden live, how ironic the name of the tour!! The stadium was sold out, Maiden played songs from both their Somewhere in Time album, the latest Zentjutsu and they also played some other classics from other albums like Fear of the Dark, Iron Maiden, Number of the Beast, Seventh Son of a Seventh son, and for the grand finale, they closed with Wasted Years. The highlights of the night was the appearance of 3 Eddies, the bounty hunter version, the cybord version, who entered into a shootout with Bruce with some pyrotechnics and last but not least Samurai Eddie, who went chasing after Steve. One of the best experiences for 2024 for me.

You know the band is loved when you look around and 90% of the shirts are the band you're there to see. When you go to an Iron Maiden show, that's exactly what you see. Everyone (10% are just nutts 😉) is wearing the same thing AND singing the words to every song. Not bad for a band that has never had a "hit," and they told the rock and roll hall of fame to F-off they wouldn't show up if they did put them in. Last night's show in Charlotte NC was sold out (like they all are). Bands today wish they had the 10% not in the Maiden shirts 1😁😁😁

Venue was pretty well organized a lot of waiting before doors opened and once in more waiting till The seats were available once in they gave Plastic Cups for your drinks before sitting over all a pretty professional experience considering the language barrier from French and English for a Major Arena sold out show 18000 the Opening Band The HU Rocked out well Iron Maiden was amazing they hardly skipped a beat very well tuned in Videotron centre Sounds Great for concerts very nice modern facility ! It’s not Centre to Old Quebec but would be wise to find closer accommodation as cabs / Uber Increase during shows if you Attend a concert or hockey game! Concert experience was a 10/10 just dident like the inflated cab prices it’s a memory I’ll hold on to forever Thanks Iron Maiden for the Memories and staff at the arena for the experience!

At 16 years old listening to Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Budgie, I was a huge Metal fan. When I heard Prowler for the first time, my ears perked up. By the time Phantom started, I was hooked, for life. I’ve seen Maiden many over the years. Being a fan of White Spirit, I was really excited to see Gers join the band. Since then, the band continues to impress. Hearing Iron Maiden and The Trooper was awesome. Gers, Murray, Smith, Nicko, and Steve still have it. Bruce, not so much, sad to say

Probably my 10-12th time seeing them from 15 to 40/years later at 55, phenomenal to this day Bruce,S vocals amazing, Steve Harris lyrics is just an added bonus, Dave Murray who guitars are awesome ( I caught his sweat bracelet in front row back in Piece of mind tour). I have to say how to you fit in all their songs, I was not familiar with the first new songs but understand they need new material. Wished for Power Slave, Rhyme of , the ancient Mariner, etc… Bruce was wearing casual cargo pants, he didn’t go into costume changes like previous gigs getting into character but loved his clothing. Eddie still rocking it, what about him is not to love.

While it was expectable that the Westfalenhalle would produce some sound issues - as most of these big venues do - my first criticism would be on the mix: way too harsh in the upper mids, ear bleeding emphasize. That all combined with processing Dickinson's voice with what sounded like massive compression. The bass though was hard to hear / distinguish at all - something which is not forgivable with Maiden. Guitars were all center and hot as hell, also they were missing some lower end, leaving just the drumkit for the fundament. (and hey, I was right in front of the sound desk, that should be one of the best sound spots in any venue...) Coming to the show & music. While the show itself was real fun to watch, with some gimicks that were entertaining, such as the battle between Dickinson and the alien beast, the selection of songs seemed more focused on avoiding too many staples, leaving it partly difficult for the occasional Maiden listener to identify. Which in itself would be not an issue, but combined with the sound issues made it difficult to connect with what happened. I had the impression that the audience felt same overall, it was not that enthusiastic as I would have expected, rather lame, so that the "encore" (which of course is not an encore, but simply a planned part of the show) felt somewhat like "unrequested". It was not a particularly bad show, I have seen far worse stuff, but given the reputation, expectation and ticket price, it was underwhelming.

Simply amazing! Fantastic show, great sound and amazing atmosphere. Maiden were at their best, have they discovered the secret of eternal youth? :) They’re so good, I’m still rocking after last night, and I can’t wait for them to be back so I can go and see them again. They brought back so many memories from my teenage years in the 80’s, what a fantastic period. Emotional at times, definitely funny with Bruce’s shenanigans between songs and not only, the concert was a rollercoaster in time with great music from the past and equally great music from the latest album Senjutsu. Thank you Iron Maiden!

What can I say that hasent been said before about Maiden, they always deliver insane live shows and live up to the hype! Amazing setlist, having 3 new songs open the concert then play the old hits, the only one I didn't know was blood brothers but I really liked that song! Then having 2 encores with aces high being the last song was perfection! This band is so legendary that whenever they come to Seattle they sell out the place, Maiden fans are die hard, so am I and I will continue to see them if they play here again!🤘🤘🤘

This was my 16th Iron Maiden show since 1985. It was great as usual. I really hate to say this, but the lads are finally starting to show their age. Bruce’s voice sounded strong, but it had a weird tone to it I’ve never heard before. Nicko is 70 and still bangin’ the kit, but many of the songs are played at a noticeably slower tempo. The set list was good, but the new album isn’t my favorite so I could’ve done without those songs. At this point, they should really just be playing their greatest hits, and maybe even some deeper cuts from the older albums. there’s also a song or two that has been on every set list for the past 30 years, and I’d be happy if they dropped those in favor of some deeper cuts. all in all, a pretty killer show. They may have lost a half step due to age, but they still put on a better live show than 90% of the bands out there.

The Show? I don't Know-how! The area was cancelled from Mercedes Benz Arena to Cannstatter Wasen. The accoustik was Great, but we didn't have a chance to See the Stage. The Stage was to low and to small for that Area. The Monitors were to little and on a Low position. And the lighttower was in front of the stage. So we couldn't see the monitor on the left side. A lot of people weren't amused about that situation. We paid a lot of money and couldn't see the stage and the monitors. But the band was great as ever. Petra and Uwe
