this part in that Shack interview is interesting: "He still regrets the band allowing one character in Hot Tub Time Machine to wear an Iron Maiden shirt throughout. “That was a litmus test of what happens if you grant the licence and take the fee. We’re not bloody Spinal Tap or Steel Panther.”...

what maiden said (these quotes don't have a name, just Iron Maiden) about that scene in 28 Years Later - Bone Temple. Below: btw I saw the film last weekend and both the movie and that scene are fuckin' awesome. Maiden scene is really sth to watch in cinemas. It looks great, it's fun and funny...

I asked Chat-GPT (5 Pro) for comparission with other bands. My question is as follows: Compare Iron Maiden's new tour ticket prices with other current rock - metal acts who are as popular / big as Iron Maiden? Compare with such big names like Metallica, AC/DC, Guns N Roses, Judas Priest and also...

I would like to hear some BNW songs from Blaze, since four of the songs' writing started when he was in the band and he probably had an input. (Not Nomad, but Dream of Mirrors, Mercenary or Blood Brothers - which he did with Thomas)

so he'll probably sing Virus and Afraid to shoot strangers. other than that best of the beast tag would be weird to be there...

yeah with a reference to Van Gogh's Starry Night, Christmas Eddie looks good. Probably by Akirant, if it's his painting he'll share tonight I think.

sadly i missed the great discounts on black friday, and now they put new products.

what do you prefer? i really wonder this. an album may cost a year without touring... A ) New tour, including an era with your favorite songs and some deep cuts. B ) New album, which you'd love to hear max 5 songs in the tour. And the others songs would be mostly classics, not deep cuts.

"last-minute cash grab" sounds really unfriendly :) most artists slow down after their 60s, actors choose simpler roles, their lines are given through earpieces, writers either retire or write new formulaic books relying on the success of their old novels... musicians' new recordings also...

who says this?

bring your daughter had the advantage of the usual christmas hype in UK. still it's a great live song and shouldnt be missed...

Infinite Dreams. Played ages ago, probably before most of us were fans who able to go to concerts, on just one tour. Just a guess: There is a slight chance for them to play this song on the upcoming RfyL, probably with Bruce's anouncement mentioning the book. On a next tour I would love to...

maybe this one gives the maiden influence more in their music (also have a maiden tshirt :) ) :

I liked the new Cart & Horses tshirt: they explain this one like this, on their facebook page: "We thought it was time to give the classic black tees a little break and bring some colour to the stage, so here it is, our brand new Cherry Red t-shirt, just in time for Christmas presents...

not copycats, two really good bands which have influences from early maiden are: audrey horne, and especially this album of theirs: enforcer:
