    I saw Iron Maiden the last two times they played in Dublin (The Point '06 and the RDS '05) and must say they totally sucked. I thought they might redeem themselves in the enclosed atmosphere of the Point but sadly Bruce Dickinson was barely audible and they played their new crap album in almost it's entirety to the expense of their better known (and better full stop) older tracks. And their guitarist who kept swinging his guitar around his back - what a frigging joke and such a waste of space. I'm convinced he wasn't even plugged in as he seemed to do nothing except dick around.

    Never really saw what people like about maiden. (I'm going to get shot for this :D) but the music just sounds piss poor and don't even get me started on the power metal vocals.
