Iron maiden:
Fear of Mexico. Sports Palace, Mexico City, Mexico. 02.10.92
Description
This one has been subtracted from my video an original
PPV event, there are some confusions about the date of the concert between
October the 1st or 2nd, but this one is from the second
night, October 2nd, '92. I'm sure about it because 3 reasons, The
incident with a balloon, The speech about the drum clinic by Nicko and because
I'm on the video.
The performance is really excellent and probably one
of the best from the Fear of the dark tour, this is because 4 reasons, 1st The sound at the
beginning of the show was really bad (First
massive concert in Mexico city in almost 15 years, in a place with the worst acoustic in the world a
cooper dome), so the boys tried to give an
extra, second they played without show only a big polyester poster of the
cover, third and stupid balloon that Bruce
& Steve read and said " I don't fear of the new maiden, I really miss the old one",
I know that because the stupid that threw the balloon was beside me at second
row (Not my friend). & last this was the first time of the boys in Mexico.
Apart of that Mexico City is famous for the great
audience reaction (just check Metallica triple live album or U2 video) or why
do you think they played Fallen angel and Out of
the silent planet as an extras in the
last tour.
The sound in Be
quick or be dead really stinks things improve from
song to song until reaches Wasting love from here on the sound is really good an at some points you could think
is a Soundboard recording but in fact is an audience.
My friend Jorge (good traders section)
just remastered the cd and improve it just a llitle so now is an 8 and no more -8.
For me the special moment is in Running Free when Bruce screams "Viva Mexico"
(The typical Mexican scream).
Thank you very much once again to Ricardo Orozco for helped me to
transfer this one to CD.
If you want the video just ask to Jorge (good
traders section).
Handmade covers designed by me, Vegueta.
Audience recording, Quality -8 (probably +8 but because the problems I rated as -8).
