I told you. It's a bad view in the "Tribune Presidentielle". I warned you !!! tongue.gif

But the major problem of this gig, is the place were it was held: in a stadium.
The only positive point of it, is that you have your own place. On the other hand, you'll have, only if your lucky, a bad view of the stage, and the sound won't be great, since it's open air.

Other than that, it was a great show. They were energetic. Bruce's voice was good, but could get better if the sound was clearer. The guitarists, Harris, and Nicko were excellent, especially, Janick Gers. He did a very good job ! smile.gif
They had some problems, like in NOTB, when Bruce and Jan were talking about something, and Dickinson's fall, even if nobody noticed it.
Frankly, the greatest thing about this great show was the fans screaming. They were just Great !!

Anyway, what I didn't like in this tour, is the lack of speeches, and contact with fans. It was more like, "let's play and finish", which I don't like. sad.gif

I did a small and quick, but good review about the show in the french forum. You can find it here. In general it was a great show, and I hope to seem them next year in Bercy.
I'll post some pictures, and maybe a couple of video clips of the last songs, like Iron Maiden, when I'll get back from Canada.

Cheers
