Iron Maiden Tickets
Iron Maiden has become synonymous with heavy metal, but the group has accomplished this with a unique approach that has influenced both metal and rock and roll at large. The band's impressive discography now features 39 titles, including 16 studio albums, four EPs, 12 live albums and seven compilations. Although the band formed in East London in 1975, its true success came in the 1980s when albums like the eponymous debut, Killers and The Number of the Beast went platinum and gold, not just in the UK but in Canada, Germany and the US. The group's first tour was the multi-group Metal for Muthas Tour, which was headlined by Motörhead. Currently, Iron Maiden's tour is the Legacy of the Beast World Tour, which the band calls its "biggest production ever."
Eddie at His Most Dynamic: Legacy of the Beast
Eddie is Iron Maiden's iconic mascot. He has been featured on nearly every album cover, and he is celebrated during Legacy of the Beast. The set does not just revel in the band's most beloved songs but takes you visually through the many Eddie-occupied horror- and sci-fi-themed worlds Iron Maiden has created. This is a huge aspect of the Iron Maiden legacy. Guitar World labeled the band an influencer for "generations of newer metal acts." Lars Ulrich of Metallica spoke of his "respect and admiration" and Scott Ian of Anthrax fame said Iron Maiden had a "major impact" on him as an artist.
