What is the deal Maiden? The last show in the Maritime provinces of Canada was in 1999 and you went to New Brunswick...Saint John's..not even a Halifax show on that tour...what did Halifax do to Iron Maiden?
Iron Maiden announce "Maiden England World Tour" with extensive dates in North America this summer
Very Special Guest Alice Cooper to July 21, Coheed and Cambria after July 21....omg really rubbing in our face this time by having a legend like Alice with you...ugh

Following the massively successful Final Frontier World Tour 2010-11, IRON MAIDEN are back on the road this summer with a series of Arena, Amphitheatre and Festival shows in the U.S.A. and Canada, opening in Charlotte, NC, U.S.A. on June 21, and finishing in Houston, TX, on Aug 18 (dates listed below), to be followed by further dates around the World in 2013. The MAIDEN ENGLAND WORLD TOUR will closely mirror, in terms of production and content, the original 1988 concert video of the same name, shot on the “Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son Tour”. This opening section of the World Tour is the band’s most extensive visit to North America for many years and includes a number of cities the band have not played in a very long time, such as Charlotte, Atlanta, Buffalo, Indianapolis and Salt Lake City.
And no Halifax since 1991...
Maybe i can't blame them with all the bullshit that has been going on with Halifax and concenrts..who would want to come. I think where very lucky to get Metallica last year...they turned down having Rush play here.. I heard that the Red Hot Chili Peppers would've came last year but once they heard all about the concert scandal they said no. :(
MAIDEN ENGLAND marks the third chapter in the History of Iron Maiden, a journey which began in 2004 with The Early Days DVD and subsequent 2005 Early Days Tour. Part Two followed in 2008 with the Live After Death DVD - the seminal 1984 concert recorded at Long Beach Arena (L.A) during the World Slavery Tour - and the band embarking on their groundbreaking Somewhere Back In Time World Tour 2008/9, which saw them play to over two million fans in almost 40 countries.
And yes Old Man Robb would love to own an Iron Maiden pinball machine as well...sigh...
