I'd like to add that in Cologne there were more than 900!! maniacs and that gives me back hope again! The last german gig in Hannover however was more a quiet one, but I'd rather say that it was really, really good. Everything was okay - Bruce, the show and the audience. The people got really enthusiastic but there were no fightings for better places like in Cologne. That red spotlight was missing this time so that Bruce didn't have to convince us about his football ambitions. He recited the verses by memory instead, or read them from his book from behind the speakers.

The set was the same as in Hamburg again and after "Icarus" the crowd shouted for another encore for a rather long time - but of course there was none. I hope that all the Bruce Dickinson fans in those countries where he' going to play next will have the same fun I had and I might see some of then next week in Madrid! That's all from Germany. I'm already counting the days until Madrid , but there are still some other concerts waiting for me till then Bye till later!
