Moved to Iron Maiden News
When you exit the videos for the Trooper single it says Death on the Road CD out August 29th, DVD coming soon.
This is what's written on the official Iron Maiden website. They've only mentioned the double live album, so the DVD will indeed be postponed.
Cheers
thought so, the magazine I always order from had removed the dvd from its catalogue...
so guess I'll only buy the double cd (with wristband !! 
) + maybe trooper single
To be honest, I don't really care about this DVD. It just seems like another lazy attempt by a band desperate for it's loyal fans to depart with their money. How many live albums and best of compilations have been released when all we really crave is a new studio album? I know I will be shot down in flames for this so I am ready for an assault.
Actually, I tend to agree with you there, Conor. I don't know if it's simply about money or if this is the result of Steve's attempt to document everything, but I'm seriously getting fed up with these unnecessary releases. 
I can only say, I'm interested in this release, I will get it, but I'm more anxiously awaiting the next studio album. Maiden can release anything they want, as long as there is enough new and original material among it.
Sadly, this has not been too much the case recently.
I would love to have a live release from all Maiden tours, so I don't see any problem in this release.
I do agree with you and I think that many fans do. I don't care if the group releases tons of live material provided there's a fair amount of new songs. Actually we face a serious lack of fresh material...

Get this cheap-ass advertisement off this forum. Moderaters do your job
This is not cheap advertisement, but information. I'll let the news team decide, though.
Topic merged. Mav is totally right.
DVDs and CDs are produced to be sold, so more often than not, news are coming from commercial sources.
Cheers

It's not a cheap advertisement. It's information from sfeerkeeltsie, a member for nearly a year and a half who has posted good stuff before.
Conor, on the other hand, has been here barely 2 weeks and is already telling the mods how to do their job?!?!?
Relax, Conor. We've got it under control.

thanks for the backup dude, appreciate it!
I already wondered where my topic went though. It was never intended as commercial. I thought it was interesting because it holds information about the release date, that's why i bolded those lines!
The official site keeps on with August 29th for the album and DVD... 
Who is it that forces you people to buy all this stuff.
I, for one, don't think they release enough material. 
I would buy something every month if it were available. 
Are you afraid Eddie will get you if you don't buy it.
Quit your whining and cough up the dough, or not.
It's your choice! Don't make us listen to your incesent bitching.
