6|666

Today is exactly half a year of my Iron Maiden mania! Which now isn't a mania anymore I guess, it's a way of life! And it all started at the Moscow concert when I saw Janick on stage.

Thank you, Jan, for changing my life!

A quick collage of my pics for celebrating, didn't have time for anything better :)




And who was the first and only one to congratulate me without being told about this date? My car! This morning, while waiting at traffic lights, I looked at the odometer and saw this:

What a coincidence!
6|666 is for 6 (months of listening to) 666 (the number of the beast) :D
Yeah, my car knows how to make me happy :)

Another dream with Jan, my 3rd one :D

I've an amazing dream last night, with Iron Maiden and Janick in it :)

It was an IM gig (how original:)) but in a very strange venue. A really small one, with a waist high stage, seats starting just a few meters away from it and a really small standing section if front of the stage, where most people were sitting down on the floor. But it was still an IM gig, and I was watching it from the best place imaginable - in front of Jan and just a meter away from him :) He caught my eye all the time and smiled a lot :) And so did the rest of the band, since I was one of the very few people who didn't just sit and watch, but sang along, headbanged and generally looked like they were really into music. But the really fun part started next :D

In the little intermission that comes before the last three songs all the guys changed their clothes into something with American Indian motive in it :lol: Jan was wearing a fringed (i guess it's called that, though I'm not sure) blue shirt with triangle pattern, and a headband with some feathers in it :D Looked fantastic! And damn funny, 'coz with those long blonde hair he doesn't look anything like an Indian :D But anyway, after coming out again dressed like that, he pointed at me and made a gesture to come closer. I did so, and he put a feather in my hair and then a headband just like his. Hell, I felt weak kneed even in my dream :lol: After that the band naturally started playing Run To The Hills, which is the first Maiden song I heard and therefore one of my all time faves. Amazing!

But that's not all! During the song, when the lyrics changed to the point of view of the soldiers, the Crew came out dressed as soldiers and began a funny fight with the band. And with me, since I was also 'an Indian' :D They left the band alone pretty soon though - they still had a song to finish, but big Ash grabbed me and dragged backstage :lol: There he said that I can join the band at the afterparty. Niiiiice!

Pity, that's where my dream ended, 'coz my hell-cat woke me up again, for about the 20th time that night, but even so it was a really great one! The part with Janick putting the feather in my hair - awwwww! It's a really rare thing that I see him in my dreams (3rd one afair), so it's a real treat when something like that happens :)
