semi-libelous addendum to Alex's review of a performance by one of the best live bands in the history of the world…
two years ago, I showed up to the Garden State Arts Center (don't know what its called in the last couple of years: PNC something, where I last saw Maiden) to interview an artist for a since shuttered guitar mag.
A very very prominent photographer was there to do the shoot before the interview. Apropos of nothing, this photog went batshit with the anecdotes…my fave concerned how Steve harris is a huge racist and homophobe…behind his back, his associates and contemporaries like to say that he would lose his mind if one of his sons started dating a black guy…

Ok a friend of mine JUST told me he saw Maiden in Chicago about two years ago and, um, MY BLOODY VALENTINE opened up for them! I half-assedly googled it but turned up nothing. Who is this other MBV? Because it can be THE MBV (can it?).

You had me at "Lita Ford catalog"
J0hn, we've talked with your loved ones and this is going on your tombstone. Hope it serves you well in the afterlife.

Oops. It CAN'T be....
Your friend probably means Bullet For My Valentine.
