SLAVING AWAY WITH IRON MAIDEN
Catching up to Iron Maiden along the road of the band’s 13-month, 28-country “World Slavery Tour” is not the easiest thing we’ve ever had to do. The strenuous nature of the band’s schedule leaves you wondering whether it’s the world or the band that’s the slave.

Catching up to Iron Maiden along the road of the band’s 13-month, 28-country “World Slavery Tour” is not the easiest thing we’ve ever had to do. The strenuous nature of the band’s schedule leaves you wondering whether it’s the world or the band that’s the slave.
But this intrepid reporter managed to arrange it so the band actually played in our city of abode! Otherwise unspectacular (remarkably so) Worcester, Massachusetts is the home of the Centrum, not a bad venue but a bit of an oddity! The big orange concrete building has no sign; it sits, looking rather surprised, seeming to have popped up out of nowhere one day. And New Englanders, typically laconic, decided to ignore it.
