Maiden Tour Update. US confirmed, Japan dates announced (again)
October 2006Wednesday 25th - Tokyo Budokan
Thursday 26th - Hiroshima Yubinchokin Hall
Monday 30th - Osaka Jo Hall
Tuesday 31st - Nagoya Shimin Hall
These will be the part of first leg the band will play following their eagerly anticipated new studio album A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH which is scheduled for release in early September. Says Steve Harris, 'We've always enjoyed immensely strong and loyal support from our fans in Japan and when we were discussing the tour plans we thought that this time around we'd give them the opportunity to be one of the first countries on the tour rather than the last! We've already had an awesome reaction to the shows announced for the European leg of the tour. Many of the venues selling out in hours with others virtually sold out before we've had a chance to promote them properly. It's been incredible.'
Says Bruce Dickinson, 'It's great to be back with our big show in Japan, especially the Budokan which has been a legendary venue for us and other great bands since I can remember. We've always loved playing in Japan over every tour and we all have many friends there.'
