IRON MAIDEN Fans In Caracas Protest Lack Of Concert In
Venezuela
IRON MAIDEN fans gathered outside Eventpro, the group's Latin
America promoters, to protest the lack of a Venezuelan concert
during the bands February/March tour around South America.
Commented the band's manager Rod Smallwood: "We do try to get to as
many fans as possible but just cant fit in everything every time.
We are getting to Colombia and Costa Rica on this Latin America leg
of the tour for the first time ever and hopefully, as we can see
how keen the fans are in Caracas, we can arrange to play there on
our next visit to that part of the world. We appear to have some
very loyal and proactive fans there and they definitely deserve a
visit!!"
On February 5, 2008 MAIDEN will release the highly anticipated DVD
of "Live after Death" and to tie in with this will play songs
mainly from their classic '80s albums on this forthcoming tour. The
stage production will also feature a production-based on the
Egyptian-themed "Powerslave Tour" which was featured on the
original 1985 video release of "Live after Death".
