Second meeting for the bigger now, Fan Club, Iron Maiden the Greek FC, at the new wonderful place we've met, Rainbow at Gazi, Athens. Saturday night it is and the fans started to come at the venue for the forthcoming gig of the excellent Maidenance who made us the honor to be with them in that event.
Excellent company, incredibly friendly atmosphere and lot of rock and metal music.
We talked about Iron Maiden news, focusing on the upcoming tour and we put down
plans for tours, events and parties with plenty of beer and music.
Maidenance then went onstage, in time, with the introduction of Moonchild,
playing the same playlist that Iron Maiden played their first concert in
our country, in the distant 1988 in New Philadelphia. Comments
really are unnecessary, because the guys apart from exceptional musicians
gave their best, simply because they absolutely love what they do! The
audience never stopped singing, highlighting the last song of the
concert, the magical and super-favorite: Alexander the Great.
Highlight of the evening, except Alexander the Great, was Heaven Can Wait, that moved the shop a couple of miles away...!
The least we could was give Maidenance an award from our Fan Club, you will read in another article later...
We'd love to thank: Alexander, Victor, Stavros, George,
Thanasis, Aris, Dimitri, George, Nick, Ilia, Maria x2, Gianni, Saki, Dionysi, Maidenance of course, Eddie on stage, Rainbow venue, all the people that came to the club and I really hope I'm not forgeting anyone...
Personally I have to say that Maidenance are better than they think...
A night to remember for everyone!
