Always gratifying when you can round off an excellent evening with a
satisfactory bowel movement, I find.

That little fella has a lot of energy. Dickenson runs around like a Cirque
de Soleil performer, all over the stage, belting out Maiden tracks
effortlessly. Incredible energy, he was always moving and his vox were top
notch on top of it.

a 9-foot tall Eddie robot thing with a space pistol and not enough skin
covering his flesh came out half way through and danced spasmodically for
a bit then stood there staring at me accusingly over a speaker stack, fuck
man, I had a couple of joints, so?! Is it cos I didn't buy any albums...?!
Arrgh. Then he shuffled off, probably so as not to crush any of the band.
Fucking thing was huge, and looked totally independent (I mean no wires or
any of that).

We got most of the early classics, I missed Bring Your Daughter to the
Slaughter but that's later model stuff so fair enough. 12 000 at the gig,
in the last week or so they sold off a lot of the extra tix really cheap,
which was a good move (I figured it made them an extra quarter million at
least) audience went off, fucking good vibe between the band and fans.

Good shit.
