Legacy Of The Beast 10/8/18

"Unsurprisingly the set last night was the same as we saw at Download 2016 - comprising predominantly of the new - opening with both 'If Eternity Should Fail' and 'Speed Of Light' from the excellent 'The Book Of Souls' - and the old - 'Children Of The Damned', 'The Trooper' and 'Iron Maiden' (with Eddie thrown in for good measure). 'The Number Of The Beast' and 'Wasted Years' concluded the evening before 'Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life' sent the crowd home happy." That was part of our take on Iron Maiden's O2 Arena gig in May last year (pictured), and the troopers return to London tonight and tomorrow to complete their UK leg of their much vaunted 'Legacy Of The Beast Tour' with a Spitfire buzzing the stage during the opening number 'Aces High'. Special guests are Killswitch Engage.
