An hour-long power outage disrupted IRON MAIDEN‘s performance in Paris on Monday night.. The La Défense Arena performance was being filmed for Maiden‘s next Run For Your Lives Tour movie. In order to ensure the “optimal viewing experience” for the movie, audiences were informed before to the performance that phones would not be allowed during the concert. Backup generators took over, so fans weren’t left in the dark for very long. But they just supplied enough electricity for the lights in the house.

When MAIDEN eventually came back on, singer Bruce Dickinson had to inform the fans that the concert would end at 11:30 p.m. due to the venue’s strict curfew. As a result, MAIDEN could not play the three encore tracks, namely “Aces High”, “Fear Of The Dark” and “Wasted Years”.

MAIDEN’s setlist for the abbreviated Paris concert consisted of the following songs:

01. Murders In The Rue Morgue
02. Wrathchild
03. Killers
04. Phantom Of The Opera
05. The Number Of The Beast
06. Infinite Dreams
07. Powerslave
08. 2 Minutes To Midnight (cut short by the power outage)
09. Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
10. Run To The Hills
11. Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
12. The Trooper
13. Hallowed Be Thy Name
14. Iron Maiden
