The Ed Hunter Tour

The Ed Hunter tour began in Saint John, New Brunswick Canada. Iron Maiden began rehearsals at Harbour Station, the city's largest arena for about a week, then performing there for one night before embarking on the tour. It was the first tour since 1988's 7th Tour of a 7th Tour to feature the World Piece Tour-era line-up after the return of vocalist Bruce Dickinson, also marking the return of guitarist Adrian Smith starting the three guitars lineup, as well as the band's first tour as a six-piece, as Janick Gers, who replaced Smith in 1990, remained with the band. In Los Angeles, guitarist Dave Murray broke his little finger, which resulted in the cancellation of the following three concerts.[1]
