Iron Maiden Mumbai - Iron Maiden storms Mumbai

Iron Maiden Mumbai - Iron Maiden storms Mumbai

February 04, 2008 13:48 IST

Veteran heavy metal band Iron Maiden left the MMRDA Grounds in Mumbai with a taste of hardcore live action on February 1.

The first stop on their 'Somewhere Back in Time' World Tour 2008 saw thousands of excited Indian fans waiting expectantly from 4 pm onward -- two in every three wearing Iron Maiden t-shirts. Besides the usual pack of youngsters, there were plenty of excited 10-year-olds and borderline senior citizens making the scene as well.

Several were actually overheard wishing that the tickets had been slightly pricier, so that they could have gotten up-close to their idols!

By 7 pm, everyone had already packed themselves into the two enclosures, so there was slim chance of making your way up front. Local rockers Parikrama opened the show and it was only at 8 pm that the lights dimmed and a recorded speech by Winston Churchill, the prelude to Iron Maiden's hit Aces High, drove the crowd wild.

This first performance was sufficient to charge the atmosphere -- what followed was sheer mayhem, with backdrops to the massive stage, all featuring the band's gory mascot Eddie, continually changing and all six band members performing at their electrifying best.

The audience was privileged to hear some of the band's greatest hits, some of which singer Bruce Dickinson himself declared they have not performed live in years -- songs like Wasted Years, The Trooper, Can I Play With Madness, Fear of the Dark, Moonchild, Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Two Minutes to Midnight and Powerslave had fans eating out of their hands.

As the band belted out song after song, it was easy to forget that all the Iron Maiden members are well into their 50's. The energy onstage was palpable as Dickinson ran to and fro across the stage, his trademark screeches interspersing mind-numbing guitar solos by 'the country club', as he himself jokingly calls the band's trio of guitarists Dave Murray, Adrian Smith and Janick Gers. Bassist and founding member Steve Harris was also a livewire on stage and while drummer Nicko McBrain's dexterity had spectators in awe, his smiling performance endeared him to them.

The pinnacle of enthusiasm was reached, however, when the band took off on the song Iron Maiden from their first self-titled album and the seventh member of the group, mascot Eddie made his way on to the stage. The 12-foot robot dwarfed the band members as his lit-up eye and menacing snarl surveyed the audience, one arm wielding a dummy rifle pointed at hundreds of bobbing heads in the crowd.

After two solid hours of playing, Iron Maiden finally bade Mumbai a fond farewell, with a promise to be back soon. All in all, everyone who came to see the band perform got more than their money's worth. "Scream for me, Mumbai!' yelled Dickinson one last time, as he made ready to leave the stage. And they did.

The Iron Maiden concert started rather early 7:50 PM to be precise & ended by 9:45 PM
Maiden is no doubt the best LIVE Performance heavy metal for sure. Precision without faltering anywhere, Maiden delivered & thrilled the Mumbai crowd.

After the first 2 songs, Aces High & 2 Minutes To Midnight, Bruce said that he was happy to be here in Mumbai, which was earlier called as Bombay, however locals still like to call it Bombay.

After Trooper, Bruce said that this will be one of the many times that Iron Maiden will play in India. \m/\m/
|| Up the Irons ||

For PowerSlave Bruce wore a Egyptianlike headgear.

Like the Bangalore concert Fear of the Dark received maximum crowd participation, with everybody joining in the chorus.

During the song ‘Iron Maiden’ Eddie appeared as the Cyborg with a gun a hand.

After the break, Bruce introduced all the band members.

You have any good quality photographs of the Iron Maiden Mumbai concert, let me know, I can post them here. Thx:)

LimeWire Store to get more DRM free music content

LimeWire Store to get more DRM free music content

LimeWire has announced that they are in the process of adding more content to their DRM free digital media store.

They are now collaborating with independent music distributor The Orchard. This deal would add on 1.2 million tracks to LimeWire.

With this the company would have around 2 million tracks on offer to their customers.

LimeWire CFO Jesse Rubenfeld spoke about this deal: “The Orchard’s top flight, broad and diverse music repertoire will enrich our users’ music-buying experience. I believe this partnership will help expand the digital music market for us and will equally benefit our artist and label partners.”

However, the company is yet to get into a deal with any of the major music retailers. Until that happens, they are going to remain a smaller player in the market.
