Galicia será la capital mundial del heavy por un día. La legendaria banda británica Iron Maiden tocará en mayo en A Coruña. Tras veintitrés años de carrera, los emperadores del metal actuarán por primera vez en Galicia, destaca Ramón Barros, director del Coliseo, donde se celebrará el espectáculo.

Fuentes de Gamerco, la empresa promotora de la gira española del grupo, confirmaron ayer que Iron Maiden «abrirá su tour mundial en A Coruña». El 19 de mayo comenzará a instalarse el escenario en el multiusos gallego. Los miembros de la banda estarán «dos o tres días» en la ciudad ensayando esa primera actuación.

El 23 de mayo agitarán sus melenas en A Coruña y al día siguiente lo harán en Gijón. A España volverán en mayo para tocar en Madrid, Barcelona y San Sebastián. Estas tres ciudades ya fueron escalas de su última gira mundial, realizada entre junio del 2000 y enero del 2001, compuesta por 80 actuaciones y que les llevó por Europa, Sudamérica, Centroamérica, EE.?UU., Canadá y Japón.

[b]Número uno[/b]

Durante el último concierto de esa gira, celebrado en Río de Janeiro, grabaron un disco doble en directo. El vídeo, editado en VHS y DVD, fue número uno de ventas en Gran Bretaña. Gamerco recalca que la banda estará liderada en A Coruña por Bruce Dickinson, su carismático cantante, que abandonó el grupo durante siete años y regresó en 1999. La última formación con la que Iron Maiden recorrió el mundo fue la formada por Dickinson (cantante), Steve Harris (bajo), Janick Gers (guitarra), Adrian Smith (guitarra), Dave Murray (guitarra) y Nicko McBrain (batería).

Iron Maiden, una de las tres grandes bandas de la historia del heavy junto con Metallica y AC/DC, ha publicado 21 discos desde 1980. El último, el recopilatorio Edward the Great , se editó el pasado año. En la portada figuraba Eddie (el Edward del título), la mascota de un grupo que toma su nombre de un instrumento de tortura de la Santa Inquisición.

Basically, it says the tour will start in Spain, in La Coruna to be precise. The band will arrive on May 19 and stay there for a few days to rehearse. The opening gig is set for May 23 and Maiden will then play in Gijón (May 24), Madrid, Barcelona and San Sebastián.

Cheers

[i]Iron Maiden will open the 23 of May in Galicia their world-wide tour

The British band of "heavy" will act in the Coliseo coruñes,
Gijón, Madrid, Barcelona and San Sebastián will be the other Spanish scales

Galicia will be the world-wide capital of heavy by a day. The legendary British band Iron Maiden will play in May in A Corunna. After twenty-three years of race, the emperors of the metal will act for the first time in Galicia (FALSE, IT´S THE SECOND), says Ramon Barros, director of the Coliseo, where the spectacle will be celebrated.

Sources of Gamerco, the promotional company of the Spanish tour of the group, confirmed yesterday that Iron Maiden "will open their world tour his tour in A Corunna". The 19 of May the scene in ¿¿multiusos?? Gallego will begin to settle. The members of the band will be "two or three days" in the city trying that first performance.

The 23 of May will shake their hair in A Corunna and on the following day they will do it in Gijón. To Spain they will return in May (False in June) to touch in Madrid, Barcelona and San Sebastián. These three cities already were scales of their last world-wide tour, made between June of the 2000 and January of the 2001, composed by 80 performances and that took to them by Europe, South America, Central America, EE.UU., Canada and Japan.

Number one

During the last concert of that tour, celebrated in Rio de Janeiro, they recorded a double disc in direct. The video, published in VHS and DVD, was number one of sales in Great Britain. Gamerco stresses that the band will be led in A Corunna by Bruce Dickinson, their charismatic singer, who left the group during seven years and returned in 1999. The last formation with which Iron Maiden crossed the world was the formed one by Dickinson (singing), Steve Harris (bass), Janick Gers (guitar), Adrian Smith (guitar), Dave Murray (guitar) and Nicko McBrain (drums).

Iron Maiden, one of the three great bands of the history of heavy along with Metallica and AC/DC, have published 21 discs from 1980. The last one, Edward the Great , was published at 2002. In the cover it appeared Eddie (the Edward of the title), the mascot of a group that takes its name from an instrument of torture of ¿¿Santa Inquisición??[/i]
