Iron Miaden: Athens ’99. Peristeri Stadium, Athens, Greece. 01.10.99

Description

This show is terrible average about the recording, but the audience was amazing and being the last concert of the tour the boys were really happy, both of them the Greeks and Iron Maiden but there was a strange incident during 2 Minutes to midnight, Bruce almost didn’t sing and even worst on the last minute of the song he stop the band and start saying one of his long speeches, even before the song he had a problem with someone of the audience, so I decided to investigate at the best source possible for a concert in Greece and that is www.maidengreece.com and here an extract of the report of the gig that explains everything:

“During the first few numbers the fans
started to light flares, which hampered my view from
the mixing rig as well as anyone past the first 10
rows, as well as this making it practically impossible
for the band to breathe. This became so intolerable
that Bruce interrupted 2 Minutes to Midnight mid
flight to address the source of the flares. Sorry
about this but I have to make a point here, if your
paying top dollars to see a band, what is the point in
this behavior? It is a waste of time and everyone else
is just going to think you mentally unbalanced. As the
set progressed we were treated to classic after to
classic in amazing fashion, although this was only a
semi partial version of the show.”
