IRON MAIDEN To Tour South America In February?

August 8, 2007

According to a posting on the IRON MAIDEN fan site MaidenFans.com, South American concert promoters Evenpro have sent out a press release to IronMaidenColombia.com regarding an IRON MAIDEN tour in Latin America that is expected to take place in February 2008. The trek, which has not yet been officially announced, would allegedly include concerts in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Colombia. A show at the Parque Simon Bolivar in Bogota, Colombia has apparently already been booked, and rumors are running rampant about possible dates at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and the River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

IRON MAIDEN vocalist Bruce Dickinson announced from the stage at this year's Download festival, which took place June 8-10 at Donington Park, Leicestershire, England, that the group's performance was being filmed for an upcoming DVD.

As a grand finale to their festival/stadium summer tour, IRON MAIDEN performed a special one-off show at London's Brixton Academy on June 24 in aid of The Clive Burr MS Trust fund. This was IRON MAIDEN's final U.K. appearance for at least a year, and was the last time they performed this year's special setlist of songs from their latest album "A Matter of Life and Death" and the LP "The Number of the Beast".
