I know exactly what you mean. I went to their Live stadium concert in Stockholm way too many years ago (Think '02), and I still get goosebumps and watery eyes thinking about Fear of the Dark, "only" 32.5K in the Audience, but still larger than anything I have ever experienced before and after that night.
Hallowed be Maiden!!! :D
The latest album "A Matter of Life and Death" is very good, but the production for it sucks. It sounds muffled. It's a shame, because it could have been one of their best albums. Really! This from a Maiden fan for 25 years.
You will love Iron Maiden when you understand the energy in the live presentations... Iron Maiden's highlight is people participating in their songs. Listen to Fear of the Dark Live and you will understand what I am talking.
