Iron Maiden to The Netherlands

Post by phkza »

From ANP:
DELFT - De legendarische rockband Iron Maiden sluit zijn wereldtournee op zaterdag 16 augustus af op het TT Circuit in Assen. Dat maakte concertorganisator Mojo woensdag bekend.
Does this mean we can expect that very colourful Boeing 757? I hope it'll come to AMS, but GRQ would also be an option I guess...

Assen - Groningen Airport Eelde is only some 20 kilometers or so, makes more sense than going to Amsterdam!

Depending on their schedule I think these guys would rather go and party in Amsterdam than in Assen or Groningen...

My guess would me AMS.

headbangen
Headbangen is het vrij heftig bewegen van het hoofd op de maat van de muziek. Deze soort 'dans' komt vooral voor bij metal en hardrock. Door het ritmisch meebewegen op de muziek, kan men in een soort trance komen waarin men opgaat in de muziek. Het headbangen wordt vooral uitgevoerd bij concerten. en in mijn auto als we naar vliegshows gaan

Looking at Bruce Air (on their site), they will fly to Hamburg, which is not too far away for some of us....

Their first concert in the Netherlands (correct me if I'm wrong):

5 oktober 1980 as support act of Kiss
Groenoordhal, Leiden

Yes, I was present only 13 years old!

In april 1981 they were touring again (Killer world tour) with their own support act, while playing in the stadsgehoorzaal in Leiden!

But...back to topic... :oops:
RAMONES 1974 - 1996
Talking Heads 1974 - 1991

didn't know that but I know that as a young boy he was a plane-spotter and he's still a regular IAT visitor as well as a vivid supporter for the Vulcan Trust...
So the fire probably is still burning a bit .....

He also presented the program "Flying Heavy Metal" on Discovery. He flew a 727 over the Everglades for example.
