Its time! Iron Maiden is visiting India once again on 15th Feb 09 at Palace Grounds in Bangalore. Along with Iron Maiden, there will be 9 other Indian bands out of which Kryptos and Parikrama are the well known ones. Along with 8 hour of non stop live rock fun, there will be a bar, a karaoke club, several snack counters, a merchandise stall, a F1 racing car on display, a fan club gathering, bungee jumping and various other activites. Its a full fledged carnival! The ticket price is 1600/- per head.

So who's gonna be there ? I am not completely sure but most probably I am going!

goto see Opeth in IIT Chennai then wasting time on old fools like Maiden.Bruce doesn't even care for his fans anymore.he's a sellout.he thinks that we're "kids" thats why we love their music.

^Did you just see 'Global Metal Documentary' ? :D

Anyways, Iron Maiden are Gods of metal. You may prefer Opeth and no doubt they are very good too but I prefer to attend the Iron Maiden gig :). And they arent 'fools'. What they did to the metal scene is priceless.

1) Its 25th today :|
2) My parents wont allow me to go alone to either of this (i am going with my guitar tutor and some children who come to learn guitar with me)
3) I am more into Iron Maiden. I havent checked out Opeth much.
4) Its fun to go with friends and my ex rather than going alone :D.
5) The Iron Maiden concert has so much stuff to do and 9 more bands to checkout!
