Flight 666 Iron Maiden Tour Documentary + Concert - Blu-ray Forum

General Vyper · 06-01-2009, 09:00 PM

Just watched this and its absolutely brilliant. The documentary follows Iron Maiden on their 2008 Powerslave Revisited world tour, with Bruce flying the band, crew and all the equipment around the globe in a Maidenised boeing 757. They played in India, Australia, US, Mexico, Peru and a bunch of others (23 gigs in 24 days across 5 continents fact fans). The sheer excitement which follows Maiden, especially in the poorer countries, is really touching and some of the fan footage is simply priceless.

It's great to see the Maiden boys being the same as they always were - just great blokes who play amazing songs, still so down to earth despite their massive success.

As a Maiden fan its a must-see, and even if you don't like the music its still worth a watch - my missus doesn't care for the music but still enjoyed the documentary immensely. There are a few snippets of performances in the midst of the documentary, and there's 16 full live songs packed onto the blu.

PQ is full screen and good 4/5
AQ is awesome 5/5

Up the Irons!

Thanks for that, General, I've been wondering for some time now what the Blu version is like. A must-buy for me.

Totally agree with the OP watched it this morning and was blown away by it.

Does anyone know if any of the concert footage is from Twickenham? (I was there

)

No, the concert footage is all taken from the 1st half of the tour
