Description

2009 vinyl single on red vinyl. Limited 200 copies

On the 10th of February in 1999 Iron Maiden announced the return of two former band members Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith. The band didnt ditch Smith replacement Janick Gers so the band kept on, with the now, famous three-guitar line-up. The band released their album Brand New World on the 29th of May 2000 and the tour for the album began on the 2nd of June that year. Following the completion of the Brave New World studio recordings in Paris, the band returned to London in May 2000 to run through their updated setlist for their upcoming tour. They needed to integrate their new tracks with older staples using the brand-new six-piece configuration before flying out to France for their tour opener in June. Some snippets of this rehearsals from those days in May have been leaked. Its a very important period of the bands history as they are rehearsing as a 6 piece line-up for the first time. This single features three tracks from those rehearsals

Track list:
1. The Wicker Man
2. Wrathchild
3. The Trooper
