Thanks for the info on the posters. I haven't seen Iron Maiden since the No Prayer... and the Fear of the Dark tours.

For anyone who's been to a show, is the opening band (The Raven Age) any good? I checked them out on Spotify and they didn't do much for me there.
I know Steve Harris' son is one of the guitarists. Do they deserve to be out there or is this pure nepotism?
I was at the Tulsa show and The Raven Age did nothing for me. Almost fell asleep listening to their set, they should not on tour with Iron Maiden.
Nepotism in my mind. I'll go get merch before and during their set.

That's pretty disappointing. They almost always have a "real" band open for them. Although, Steve's daughter opened when I saw them for the Somewhere Back in Time tour. I got there after her set was over so I really don't know if she was any good but I certainly didn't hear any rave reviews from anyone I talked to that did get there in time for her set.

I was pretty tired from work when I got to the United Center last night. I did fall asleep during the Raven Age set. When Alice Cooper opened up for Maiden in 2012 on Maiden England, that was a great opener. Alice had the costumes, props, and great songs that made for an amazing opener.
A coworker of mine was with me and it was her first time seeing Iron Maiden live. She had a great time when Iron Maiden was on stage. Concurs on how mediocre the Raven Age was opening.

Going tonight to the Denver show and have been trying to decide if Raven Age was worth getting there on time. Based on the reviews, looks like I'll be there in time for Maiden. And, my last non PJ show before the Greenville-Hampton-Raleigh-ColumbIa portion of the tour kicks in this weekend!!!

We got there too late for The Raven Age. We asked a few people near us in the pit if we missed anything special and they were all in agreement that we did not.
