Lots of old artwork for the everchanging backdrops, devil statue during Number of the Beast, etc. They also only played songs from the first 4 albums, including Phantom of the Opera! Yep. I read somewhere that they also don't like the fact that when they play here, most of the crowd is older and not as nthusiastic as they used to be, mostly guys in their 30s & 40s standing with their arms crossed watching, while in Europe & South America is mostly young teens and 20s going nuts. A shame really, as the older crowd are the ones who can afford to pay more for the seats and are the same guys who used to go see Maiden when they toured here in the 80s. New fans are into different stuff now in the US, while classic metal is still strong elsewhere.</blockquote>
