Ned Nederlander Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Aberdeen feck! Might try Newcastle but that's choosing a Tuesday over a Saturday. Not seen them since the 80s !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 It's called Legacy of the Beast because of the comics and game of the same name. So I'm guessing the name isn't much of an indicator to what hits will be played. I'm thinking just a general hits set from all over the shop since a timeframe wasn't specified in the statement. Either way, I'm in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the Aberdeen venue is a pain to get to, whereas Newcastle Arena is five minute walk from both bus and train stations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del79 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) A description of the tour. The concept for the Legacy Of The Beast World Tour was inspired by Maiden’s mobile game and comic book of the same name and the stage set design will feature a number of different but interlocking “worlds” with a set list covering a large selection of Eighties material with a handful of surprises from later albums to add diversity. The original teaser had For The Greater Good Of God playing with an Aces High reference. Now onto the artwork. I can guess some of the others on the set by the references Number Of The Beast The Trooper Flight Of Icarus The Clansman 2 Minutes To Midnight/Brighter Than A Thousand Suns Revelations Flash Of The Blade? Powerslave Fear Of The Dark Anything else from Piece Of Mind/ Seventh Son/Somewhere in time Edited November 13, 2017 by Del79 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side tickets might be slightly cheaper than if it had been at the Hydro. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) Been a while since there's been a massive difference between the Hydro and other places. You can get more expensive seats at the Hydro but the vast majority are the same. Infact, there's gigs that you can actually get cheaper tickets at the Hydro than you can in Aberdeen. That's certainly the case for the Killers and Stereophonics gigs coming up. Edited November 13, 2017 by Randy Giles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del79 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 It's either Aberdeen or Newcastle for me. If I can find a bus or train that has a late enough return time to Glasgow, I will book it. Otherwise, I may have to look for accommodation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a Jury’s Inn hotel almost on the doorstep of the venue, and it’s within walking distance from bus/train stations too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will probably go to Newcastle as everything is more central and it is a slightly shorter train journey from Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestersKTID Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Saw them in Aberdeen last time round. The venue isn't that bad, just a bit of a pig to get to if you're not local. Need to try and crash with my pal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might be growers but currently thinking they’re a bit ‘meh’.[/url] Had heard a lot of talk on the main riff in the MH song being similar to SYL’s ‘Love’.....geezo didn’t think it’d be THAT similar. Read earlier Tweets from Devin basically not being overly bothered by it mind you. The song is ok, will probably go down well live, that pre chorus though is horrific. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
