How do you follow up one of the most innovative and undeniably cool world tours in rock ‘n’ roll history? In Iron Maiden’s case, you just do it again, only for a longer time, on a slightly bigger scale. The first leg of 2008’s Somewhere Back in Time tour was a marvel of planning and ingenuity, as band, crew, and stage set-up flew around the globe aboard a refurbished Boeing 757, which happened to be piloted by lead singer Bruce Dickinson. Along for the ride on that whirlwind six-week tour were the guys from Banger Films, the company behind such popular documentaries as Metal: A Headbanger’s Journey, Global Metal, and the recent Metal Evolution series, and the resulting film Flight 666 turned out to be an enthralling look at the tour, from the perspectives of both the band and the fans they visited at every stop.
Three years later Iron Maiden headed off on another worldwide jaunt, this time in support of their 2010 album The Final Frontier, covering 28 cities in nine weeks, starting in Moscow, and ending in Tampa, Florida. Again Banger Films made the trip with the band, but this time around their focus was to film a complete show for a DVD release, and the end result is En Vivo!, shot at Estadio Nacional in Santiago, Chile on April 10, 2011. When it comes to fan support, nothing compares to the reception Iron Maiden continually receives in South America, as proven by Rock in Rio 1985 and the mind-blowing set at Rock in Rio 2001, the latter of which was released as a DVD in 2002. They’re an extremely devoted bunch, showing up in the tens of thousands, sometimes hundreds of thousands, always singing along to every lyric and riff, and it always makes for a rousing live document.
Although 2002’s Rock in Rio was such a memorable, hectic spectacle, En Vivo! is in many ways a superior release. The band, already consistently one of the best live acts on the planet, is in fine form here, clearly displaying that sharpness that bands have late in a tour. Of course the set is dominated by selections from The Final Frontier, and the fact that the five songs hold up so well alongside the classic material is a testament to the strength of that album. The mid-paced “The Final Frontier” – Maiden’s most unorthodox show opener to date - and the galloping “El Dorado” kick off the show to a tremendous reception, the mellow travelogue “Coming Home” is certain to become a latter-day staple of the band’s, while “The Talisman” turns out to be particularly explosive in a live setting. The most pleasant surprise, though, is the epic “When the Wild Wind Blows”; the most disciplined long song bassist Steve Harris has ever written, it’s a highlight of the 16-song set. And all the while, the Chilean fans sing along to every note of those new songs, which is extraordinary, North American audiences tend to go for a beer when newer songs are played.
