I saw Iron Maiden in concert last Wednesday night in St. Louis!

Me and a bud from high school before the show. I'm the guy that has to take his glasses off so he can read his darned cell phone screen.

The Trooper from the front row that night...not my vid, I was 26 rows back.





Looks like "a burst of rounds took his horse below".

 

The coin has nothing to do with the song, but the song (and it's reason for being) make me laugh

What a treat! That must've been quite a show. Sad to say, it's been ages since I last attended a rock concert.

 

LOL, goofy song! Here is one that was big when released in UK in '78, but was a funny song in the US...

Excellent, @chrsmat71 !

I will be traveling soon to take my 84 year old mother to a couple of rock concerts. She is very excited to see her favorite performer again-- Queen + Adam Lambert. She's in for the Adam part rather for Queen. Fortunately I enjoy both.

 

That's absolutely fantastic! Rock on Momma TIF!

 

If you haven't seen the original drug induced utube (not the song), you may find it really hilarious.

 

I have been carrying this coin in my wallet throughout the plethora of finals this week (two tomorrow!! )

 

For a Canadian friend...

 

Gotta love long weekends.

Ayyyy finally managed to pick up a Crispus campgate from Alexandria. All that's left is Thessalonica and Constantinople.

 

Terrible photos of this coin, but in the end it doesn't really matter.

 

One of my favorite songs (Depeche Mode) masterfully covered by a total american legend. With my best wishes and love for my CT friends at the east-coast of USA and Caribbean:

 

Not sure how I missed that sweet medieval!

Anyway...I feel like I need to share some tunes and coins. One of those kind of days!




This album was released today and it was very good...not for everyone though. Lyrics...hehe!

Coin!

 

Here's another one. Approach with an open mind - it might be fun!

 

Great tunes and coins Jwt! I haven't listened to MM in ages.
