Enough with the press release and on to the debate.

It's an interesting idea for Maiden, I don't know if they can pull it off. 50,000 capacity (according to Ironmaiden.com for this show, it's far more than that for an England Rugby International) is huge in the UK for Maiden, far more than Download attracts. With a strong support line up they can probably grab 35,000 to 40,000 which wont be a bad turn out.

I'm posting this from a meeting, good times.

I've always wanted to see Maiden.

Doubt I'll go down for this.

I take it this is what they were spouting on about at Download Festival this year then aye?

There was a young lady from Twickenham
Whose shoes were too tight to walk quick in 'em.
She returned from a walk
Looking whiter than Chalk
And took off her shoes and was sick in 'em.


Er, would love to see maiden but can't really take a saturday off. Boo.

I'll wait 'til nearer the time before saying yay or nay.
