Up The Irons!.......2007-04-17
One of the better live acts that you can see in the Heavy Metal genre. This is an excellent quality DVD with very good DTS surround sound and excellent picture quality. I'm not sure why an earlier reviewer thought that the sound quality wasn't very good and that the bass was weak, I also have a good quality 5.1 surround set up and find the overall quality very good, I would suggest a better surround amp :-)
I like this DVD as it has some of their newer stuff which I am more of a fan of. 'Brave New World' and 'Blood Brothers' the stand out songs IMO. There are a few too many cuts but it doesn't spoil the overall enjoyment for me.
The extras are also worth a watch too. As with most Iron Maiden products, this is good value for money.
Awful editting.......2006-12-12
I've got rid of this DVD now cos I simply couldn't watch it anymore.
Like most other reviews say the editting is a disgrace - I'm not sure why Steve Harris continues to edit concert films. It's bordering on emabarassing at times to be honest.
This is a real missed opportunity - the scale of the event and the performance itself would really lend itself to an "AC/DC Live at Donnington" masterpiece, but sadly it doesn't come close. It's like when you watch a band at a festival on TV and you can tell its being done on the hoof.
A shame cos the sound and performance are terrific. Avoid or listen only!!
Pretty damn good, but not perfect.......2006-11-21
I really enjoyed the DVD as a whole and found the extras entertaining.
The sound quality was fairly good and the atmosphere was definately captured. However, i have to agree with the other reviewers who have pointed out the frantic editing (quick camera angle changes) and also felt that the picture quality was poor to say this is a DVD.
Overall, a worthwhile purchase. I just wish i'd been there for real :P
maiden rocks, but stop editing it.......2006-03-04
This is a very good dvd. Good quality sound etc, but why dos Steve Harris keep editing the whole thing?
It ruins it a bit for me which is a shame because they rock so hard.
As usual though, the guitar work is superb and you can really see the talent they have.
Apart from the editing it is very good and a must have for any maiden fan
