Like, OMG! Iron Maiden to Announce North American Tour?

Basically the title of this entry says it all: Iron Maiden will announce a North American tour...and soon! Or, that's what some people in the know seem to think. 

So how soon is the announcement? Like, this Thursday at 3pm ET.

This is the big one for me - I've still never seen Maiden live so I'm pretty excited about this. I wonder who they would take on the road with them? I find it interesting the Scorpions haven't announced their U.S. run yet...just sayin.' Maybe Heaven and Hell? Who knows, but it's fun to play the guessing game. Up the irons!
