Note: In the video, I say they are playing tuned down. But a few of you disagreed in the comments... I just played along with my bass to a few recent live recordings of theirs (The Trooper, Aces High) and... you're right, it is the original keys! Interesting... I'm wondering if the perception there, in the stadium, tricks the ear a bit into thinking it is lower. It sure sounds "less bright" to me, I guess that is what is throwing me off. I don't have anything near absolute pitch, so I could be easily be tricked, for sure. Oh well, I guess I should check next time, to at least correct myself in post. :-D

Here we are again, back from a long "vacation"! Many live concerts to see, so I decided to do one reaction for each of the bands I have seen or will see this semester --trying to watch live videos as much as I can, to keep with the theme...

Let's start with an Iron Maiden song, Stratego, from their newest album.
