times and am continually blown away, not just by their live show, but
also by the great records they continue to make. We have learned much
from Iron Maiden and are honored to be sharing the stage with some of
the greatest ICONS in rock music."
Maiden Manager Rod Smallwood
comments: "Its a tremendous time for metal fans right now with some
fantastic young bands making a real mark for themselves. Maiden are
delighted to be bringing their fans one of the very best, Avenged
