Metal gods Iron Maiden hit Philly

For the first time in their 25+ year career Iron Maiden felt so strong about their new album "A Matter of Life and Death" that they are playing all 10 tracks as they appear on the album!

I was initially skeptical of this idea, having only a few weeks from the album release date to the concert date to become familiar with the tracks, but I came to find the setlist actually enhanced my enjoyment of the ENTIRE album, raising my appreciation of a track or two that would have normally been overlooked.

I had good seats (3 rows back from the pit), if not a little to far to the left of stage, but nice and close to see Bruce, Dave, Adrian and Steve up close when they did their walk around stage!
