Ahead of IRON MAIDEN‘s 2019 shows, drummer Nicko McBrain takes us through the “Legacy Of The Beast” setlist in his own inimitable style. Check out the second video below.
MAIDEN‘s “Legacy Of The Beast” tour will hit 33 cities across the U.S. and Canada beginning in July. Support on the trek comes from THE RAVEN AGE. Additionally, FOZZY will be guests for the Banc Of California Stadium show in Los Angeles.
MAIDEN‘s 2019 North, South and Central America trek comprises 44 shows in six countries, which, combined with the band’s 2018 European dates, means that by the end of this tour, the group will have taken the “Legacy Of The Beast” show to over one and three quarter of a million fans around the globe.
The band’s triumphant first leg of the “Legacy Of The Beast” tour opened in Europe last year to outstanding critical acclaim, not just by the 750,000-plus fans who came to see the show but right across national press and rock media, including The Times (U.K.) newspaper calling it “an extraordinary show filled with world class theatrics… a masterclass in performance and staging.”
The concept for the “Legacy Of The Beast” tour was inspired by MAIDEN‘s mobile game and comic book of the same name and the stage set design featured a number of different but interlocking “worlds” with a setlist covering a large selection of 1980s material with a handful of surprises from later albums to add diversity.
