IRON MAIDEN: U.S. Tour Announcement Coming Tonight?

February 19, 2008

According to a posting on IRON MAIDEN's official web site, U.S. fans should look for an announcement "coming later tonight" (Tuesday, February 19) — presumably containing additional dates for the North American leg of the band's Somewhere Back In Time - World Tour '08.

IRON MAIDEN's year got off to a roaring start with the February 4 international release of the band's long-awaited DVD "Live After Death" smashing straight into the UK music DVD chart at No. 1, not only outpacing its nearest competitor by three to one, but outselling the rest of the Top 6 combined! Internationally it has been a similar story, with No. 1s in Australia (gold first day),France, Italy, Sweden, Spain, New Zealand, Denmark, Finland and Germany, where the DVD also spectacularly crashed into the Top 10 Album chart due to such unprecedented high sales. "Live After Death" also entered the music DVD charts at #2 in Portugal, Norway and Ireland and Top 3 entries from the USA and Canada.
