“OMG, Maiden Chicago was amazing tonight at Nite Cap ♥ so insane how much Bill Swanson sounded like the singer for Iron Maiden....their set blew me away.”

— Natalie Hall

“Just wanted to let you know, I caught Judas Beast last night. They where pretty damn good, But you guys smoke them. Can't wait till you come to the northwest burbs again.”

— Charles Young, Charles Young

“U Guys Rock!!!!”

— Mike Gascoyne

“You guys are downright amazing! I saw you with Bastard at Bada Brew 2-16-13 and was blown away by your show! It was like seeing Maiden in the old days. OUTSTANDING! I can not wait to see you again.”

— Lanie Alexandria Costeas

“I caught your show at Bada Brew Saturday night (Feb 16th). This is the first time I'd ever heard of you let alone seen you. Well, you guys absolutely nailed it. That show was so far beyond my expectations I'm struggling for the words to describe it. The whole night I kept having flashbacks of old Maiden concerts. Even now, I'm wracking my brain trying to come up with any tiny flaw or minor suggestion for what to change and frankly... I can't come up with anything. That show was utterly flawless. You guys were absolutely fantastic. So thank you....for the flashback memories and for the phenomenal show. Jeff Knoedler”

— Jeff Knoedler

“You guys killed it last night! Always an awesome performance by all in the band! We stayed for the full set and brought our friend to his first Maiden Chicago show who got a drum stick. You guys made his night! \,,/ All the world needs is alittle more metal!!”

— Clarence Robertson, Show Review

“Maiden Chicago offers a strong live performance with dueling guitars and powerful frontman. Smoke and lights illuminate the stage as "Chicago Eddie" lurks on stage. The drums and bass complement each other well as they play the Iron Maiden classics such as, Number of the Beast, Flight of Icarus and The Trooper. If you're hungry for Maiden and want Piece of Mind while not spending a Pharaoh's ransom, you'll agree that Maiden Chicago is one tough act to follow.”

— Todd Pelletier A.K.A Evil Genius, The Bad Americans

“ An amazing concert !!!! very powrful music !!!! fantastic audience !!! thank You !!!! see you at P.R. P .......picture on the way !!!!”

— Elzbieta Beata Krzywinska, Elzbieta Beata Krzywinska

“ You guys were so awesome! Thanks for rocking the road house !! And helping our a great cause!”

— Betsy Kuypers, Betsy Kuypers

"An overwhelming response was seen and felt from the crowd packing the stage front in anticipation of the group." "If you are a fan of IRON MAIDEN and love the music, check out Chicago's premier MAIDEN tribute: MAIDEN CHICAGO. I don't think you will be disappointed."

— Jodi Landes, Metal Alley Webzine
