Iron Maiden fans in New Zealand will be able to buy a special edition All-Blacks t-shirt around the Kiwi tour.
Iron Maiden will before in Christchurch next Friday April 29 and then Auckland on Sunday May 1.
According to Iron Maiden’s manager Rod Smallwood, “We did a tribute to the legend that is Colin Meads on our 2011 NZ tour T-Shirt which went down so well with the rugby fraternity there (i.e. most everyone!) that AB assistant coach Wayne Smith, a mate for many years and big Maiden fan along with some other current ABs, asked to use this art on some special Ts he was going to use as prizes for the players for outstanding defensive performances in each game of last year’s World Cup. He had done similarly in the 2011 Cup with our “Fear of the Dark” design T’s.
“This new tour shirt commemorates the victory last year at Twickenham and is a tribute to the ABs.
“Looking forward to seeing some of you for a few Troopers in Christchurch and Auckland”.
Iron Maiden Australian dates will start May 4 in Brisbane.
