Powerslave -- Allentown, PA -- May 26th, 2012
Basically, me and four good friends put together an Iron Maiden tribute just to do a one-off gig before our drummer moved to Texas. It was originally planned as just to do a 45-60 minute set, but it eventually grew into us doing our own, headlining show. I personally put in a lot of work learning a lot of Adrian Smith's solos pretty damn accurately, and we had a ridiculously fun time.
Setlist: Intro: Churchill's Speech 01 Aces High 02 2 Minutes to Midnight 03 Wrathchild 04 Revelations 05 The Trooper 06 22 Acacia Avenue 07 Losfer Words 08 Rime of the Ancient Mariner 09 Total Eclipse 10 Powerslave 11 The Evil That Men Do 12 Fear of the Dark 13 Iron Maiden Encore 1: 14 Different World 15 Run to the Hills 16 Hallowed Be Thy Name Encore 2: 17 Wasted Years 18 Flight of Icarus 19 Running Free Basically, the songs were largely selected based on what we all individually knew. Since it wasn't a band, no one went too far to learn shitloads of material - if I had made the set myself there's a couple things I would have done differently, but all in all I thought it worked really well and the crowd seemed to love it. Also, we blew the power TWICE during the show, once in the beginning of Total Eclipse, and again in the middle of Iron Maiden. Pretty insane considering they've had national acts play the venue. |

If only Maiden played a set with Icarus, Acacia and Losfer Words...great set though!

That's a better setlist than the last two Maiden tours.
