I was at this concert in Los Angeles. I love how they kept the hawk-cry at "Over We goooooooo!!!" and the surround-sound for the simulated gunfire-guitars right after that, right before "Blood is falling like a rain.."
This song is about the horrors of any war, by the example of the battle in Paschendale (Belgium) in WW1. "Blood is falling like the rain", "the sea of death it overflows". Never again should any war pay off for anybody.
gotta love the maiden, big respect. be a sad sad day when these guys hang the gloves up as nobody is coming through the ranks to replace them................UP THE FUCKING IRONS!!!!!
275,000 men died for the British Empire in Paschendale und 220,000 für die Deutsche Reich. For Queen & Kaiser Remember the Lost, Dead, and Forgotten of the Great War 🇺🇲🇩🇪🇬🇧
Aside from my bootlegs...which are many...they have over 7-8 live home videos and they learned well from my favorite band KISS, They took Maiden out on on Maiden's first tour of Europe summer 1980 and KISS really loved and kept in good contact with them over the years. The BEST bands live for music, show, entertain (KISS, IRON MAIDEN, WATAIN, W.A.S.P.)
Paschendale was the third battle of Ypres fought in 1917 250,000 British Soldiers deaths 400,000 German soldiers deaths . Some of the biggest body counts in human history . The biggest of course was Operation Barbarossa , Stalingrad , and Kursk , and the Siege of Leningrad, during World War Two . But World War One scored some horrific numbers .
Thanks for the rection on this masterpiece! Besides the fact that Maiden is one of my favorite bands, how important to hear songs that raise concience on bad things that actually happened and that younger generations can also be aware of this, especially in times like the present. Hope you can do more Maiden songs. Keep going!
I absolutely agree. Very good comment. 👍 Especially by this song - which is about the dirtiness, cruelty and destructiveness of war - I hope that Iron Maiden can transport their messages of humanity much further than conventional school books and educational media can. Absolutely skilled and unique band.
god they are so good man! this tour was my first maiden show. 9 more times since. they are so tight. great entertainers and full of energy. would have loved to have seen them back in the day. nothing compares to a maiden show. Iron Maiden is a way of life
Cheers fellas! I really enjoy your reactions and your bants is always on point, keep doing what you do! Love from the UK ☺️😘 After Dave’s burrito revelation why don’t you try some different hot sauces on Office Blokes Try? 🥵😉

Maiden is timeless. Happy to say I forget just how many times I have had the privilege of seeing them live in concert.
I love Adrian Smith’s BLISTERING solo. Great reaction.
Never a dull moment with Maiden. Never get credit or recognition they deserve in their own country.
Didn't see this one comin'. UP THE IRONS!
Glad you liked it lads!!!...UP THE IRON'S..!!!!

Maybe my favorite of the songs since Bruce and Adrian’s return, Up the Irons.

One of my favorite Iron Maiden songs and definitely underplayed.

Even have an Iron Maiden pinball machine in my living room :)
Maiden was one of the best bands I've seen live... Best stage show, and the amount of energy they put out is incredible.
Seen them live 10 times over the years. New album is stunning.
Up the Irons \m/
saw them in Buffalo N.Y. a couple years ago. Been a fan since the mid 80's. Murray rocks!
I was at the same concert with my daughter, up the irons.
