Heavy Metal Royalty Return
English heavy metal band, Iron Maiden, returned down under for the first time since 2016, and they did not disappoint! Bringing the Future Past Tour to RAC Arena on the 1st, they kicked the month off with high energy, performing songs from the band’s most recent studio album Senjutsu, as well as other fan favourites.
