Iron Maiden was great ! Good show ! The musicians are so wonderfull ! :-D
We were a large group who traveled from Montreal to Quebec to see Iron Maiden play and we had an amazing time. Iron Maiden was awesome as expected, I found that the sound was a bit too loud but that could be just me. The new Centre Videotron is really really nice! It was our first time there & it was easy to find our way around and the general admission entrance was super conveniently located near the washrooms and the beer stands. I found that the security were a little bit strict. But overall the venue was great!
Great show..some problem with the mic..but for the rest it was Perfect.
perfect night ! really nice show ! Beautiful amphitheater with super nice staff
Amazing concert. Sound and show amazing. Maiden don't disappoint.
First of all I am a huge Maiden fan Unfortunately the vocals were off for this show I am not sure if it was equipment or if Mr. Dickinson was sick or his vocal cords are toast after extensive touring
I saw Maiden last year for the 1st leg of the North American tour. It turns out that very little has changed at this show from the previous show. The setlist was almost the same, the stage set was the same, the band were pretty much the same (raw). I’ll give drummer Nicko McBrain credit, however, as I felt this was the tightest I’ve heard him play in a live setting in a long time. Unfortunately, Bruce’s vocals kept on dropping out and his high notes seemed to get lost. As I said in my last review, I think Maiden needs to lower the keys of the songs. When my wife and I arrived, opening band Ghost was playing and they were very good. The sound was excellent, so I had high expectations for Maiden. I don’t know what was going on at the mixing desk but it sounded like the whole mix was being put through a Phaser as every once in a while the high frequencies would drop out and then return. In the previous review for the show last year, I mentioned that I preferred the Molson Amphitheater (now called the Budweiser Stage) to the ACC. I might have to retract that statement. Sure the sightlines are better, but as stated above, the sound was not. Additionally, there is a no smoking policy in the seating and lawn area with signs everywhere. I don’t know why they bothered, as at least a quarter of the place lit up when it got dark. I did ask a few people around us to stop, but they continued a little while later. Security was coming around in their bright yellow shirts to ask people to stop, but the smokers would light up again when the security was gone. Personally, I think they should have a smoking section waaaaay at the back, that way everyone is happy. Also some security should be plain clothed to catch smokers and boot them out. Over all, it wasn’t my favorite experience due to the almost identical setlist, the sound and the smoking. Major Spoilers below….. Setlist below….
