Here's my review of the Iron Maiden / Alice Cooper June 26th concert in Mansfield, MA: Review Link!

[Hiromi]

Yeah we had an issue with the sound system as well, but I only remember one bad instance during the concert. I have to agree about Alice as well, this was the best sound he's had in years as far as I'm concerned. And I love these crowds Maiden's drawing, huge turn around after years of Heavy Metal acts not considering North America worth touring as heavily, the community's really rebounding.

Glad you liked it, but man, that set list is killing me. Why'd they have to skip Cleveland? We're almost directly in the middle of Buffalo and Detroit. And they have an off day between the two.

[Deathstroke]

Oh, and someone that was at the show I went to, posted on the Maiden Facebook page that they shot the entire show. I contacted him to see about getting a copy.
