10.05.10
Hardline Media is proud to announce the "Paul Dianno 30th Anniversary of Iron Maiden Tour". This is a very special tour, marking the 30th Anniversary of the debut self titled Iron Maiden LP. For the first and only time in history, you will hear every song from the debut Iron Maiden LP played live, along with multiple tracks from Killers, Iron Maiden's legendary second album. Some of the songs from the first LP have not been played live for nearly 30 years, so this is a very special occasion for Australian fans, as this occasion looks set to only happen here in Oz.
Iron Maiden's debut album shot the band to stardom to become one of the most influential bands in history, with the bands total sales well over 100 million. Paul Dianno was an integral part of the band, singing on their first two albums, Iron Maiden and Killers. Tickets look set to sell fast so get in quick, and there will be special "V.I.P." packages available for the die hard fans. These packages will get you entry to the show, a merch bag, tour poster and a meet and greet with the Beast himself, Paul Dianno.
