IRON MAIDEN To Play Croatia In August
December 19, 2007British heavy metal legends IRON MAIDEN have scheduled a headlining concert at the Split City Stadium in Split, Croatia on Sunday, August 10 as part of their Somewhere Back In Time World Tour 2008.
Commented bassist Steve Harris: "This will be our very first visit ever to the city of Split and we're very excited about getting there to play on this tour. We have visited Croatia only a couple of times before, both times in Zagreb much further north in the country. The first time was way back in 1986 and last time on the 'Give Me Ed' tour three or four years ago. So to us this will just be like playing somewhere new for the first time which always gets us going on stage and I'm sure many of our friends from Zagreb will be making the trip down south for this special show."
Tickets go on sale to the public at midday on Thursday, December 20.
On February 5, 2008 MAIDEN will release the highly anticipated DVD of "Live after Death" and to tie in with this will play songs mainly from their classic '80s albums on this forthcoming tour. The stage production will also feature a production-based on the Egyptian-themed "Powerslave Tour" which was featured on the original 1985 video release of "Live after Death".
A preview of the "Live After Death" DVD, the legendary recording of IRON MAIDEN's four-night stand at Long Beach Arena, California in 1984, is available below.
