Why not catch all of them?!

Having seen Maiden numerous times over the years, they always put on a storming show. Apparently the Reading / Leeds sets will be earlier stuff only, as they're sort of supporting their "Early Days" DVD. That means lots from Number of the Beast and Piece of Mind, so the set list should be a bit special.

Hope these aren't the only shows they're doing this year - don't really want to have to fork out for a festival to see them.

I have work the other days

Can't get time off either due to an appointment with a Ferrari at Silverstone in the same month.

This always confuses me.

People pay good money to come to Reading.

I spent 22 years and a lot of money trying (and finally suceeding) to GET OUT of Reading!!!

And some of us are stuck here

I got out eventually... After about 15,000 laps of that bloody roundabout and the rest of the one way system.

Do Glasto instead.

Reading is mickey mouse in comparison.

It is on my doorstep!!

But unlike the idiots who live under flightpaths, I understand it was here before me. Hence we load the car up and go for a drive over the long weekend!!

Convenience is no excuse, trust me

Respect to you!

To be honest, if it was in my back yard I wouldn't like it either, but erm... I'm not sure where I'm going with this...

What are the actual dates for this???

Sounds like a fairly impressive rocky line up!
