AI notes: On July 8, 1988, Iron Maiden electrified the crowd at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, delivering a powerhouse performance as part of their Seventh Tour of a Seventh Tour. Riding the momentum of their critically acclaimed Seventh Son of a Seventh Son album, the band blended new tracks like the haunting title song with classic anthems such as The Trooper and Run to the Hills. With Ace Frehley’s Comet opening the show, the energy was palpable throughout the packed arena. And on July 15, Iron Maiden continued their North American assault at Meadowlands Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey, where their intense stage presence and theatrical production captivated another enthusiastic crowd. These back-to-back performances showcased Maiden at their peak—tight, dynamic, and delivering a setlist that perfectly balanced their evolving sound with fan favorites, leaving an indelible mark on the East Coast heavy metal scene.
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because there was really no reason to save it at the time.
The Village Voice was an American counterculture newspaper known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse - a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history. It is quite common to find great political cartoons, satirical cartoons and articles, thought-provoking editorials, and ads and reviews for both concerts and theater productions - both on and off Broadway. Many iconic writers and musicians credit their appearance in The Village Voice for at least a portion of their success.
