RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

[GhostofCain]

When I saw them in 81 a guy in an Eddie mask came out during Ides of March to fire up the crowd. Would that have been Rod?

Quite possibly! Either him (he used to be Eddie at some early gigs) or one of the few members of the road crew.

Half the casuals there don’t even know it.

Boots should be popular thanks to LAD and ME. The bridge is so good. I can't imagine it as a closer, although I don't want Run To The Hills to be there again, but it's expected. Hallowed isn't an easier closer too, but it's fitting to be there again. Ofc like Running Free. The other side with an example is Sanctuary, it can work both as an opener and closer, it can be effective enough, but they won't do it most likely. Who knows.

That's fair. I'd rather an "inferior" version than hearing the same old classics for the millionth time though. This tour is the perfect opportunity for a track like that, without feeling out of place, even if it's not necessarily the optimal way to experience the song.

Agreed with this. But ''inferior'' and not the optimal way to experience it? In a Hits tour? It's not a tough song for Bruce.

Fair enough. I’d rather live with the memories of the 99 version of the song instead.

Next week we’ll know for sure.

Really glad I locked in my Killers prediction back in October!

I'm also Brazilian and I have the same perception as you about Maiden's shows here. Tour after tour the audience seems to be getting more and more inactive and less interested, which is frustrating. But, yes, your observation is as sad as it is true. We're all getting too old...

But, in our defense (or not so much), I have an account of the last show in São Paulo (Nicko's farewell): I got so excited and jumped so much that I seriously hurt my knee! At least in spirit, I still feel young. It's a shame that my body can't keep up...

Yes, true. The last show was amazing for sure.

If you don't mind giving me a short guidance how I'm gonna do that, I'll do. No glimpse yet how to spoiler tag anything.

Offtopic but I went ahead and added spoiler tags for you. The code is in the text when you go to edit your signature so it should be easy to maintain if/when you add to it.

 

[Poto]

Phantom and Killers walk-on Eddie.

Big Eddie will be the one on the tour poster.

Maybe I am onto something

 

[Prowler]

It could still be the poster Eddie, I guess, but Killers seems more likely now

I guess it's not Killers, but it screams Killers.

Betting it will be the poster Eddie, but the walkout will be during Killers.

Not all heroes wear capes

Maybe they’ll throw in Killers as a tribute to Paul.

Yeah, this is what I meant.

Really hoping for Killers and Rime! If those two are played, the rest can be the greatest hits and I don’t care.

 

[Starblind]

As Leonard Cohen says; First we take Killers, then we take Infinite Dreams \m/

why not during Iron Maiden?

 

[Poto]

why not during Iron Maiden?

Big Eddie

Add Infinite Dreams to that

 

[Iron Lurker]

Maybe they’ll throw in Killers as a tribute to Paul.

I was actually just thinking that when I was cutting grass. I was imagining in my head Bruce saying something along the lines of "This is for you, Paul" during the beginning

 

[Prowler]

A Paul tribute is to be expected. Maybe it's Killers or maybe Running Free/Sanctuary.

 

[PhantomOfTheOpera]

As Leonard Cohen says; First we take Killers, then we take Infinite Dreams \m/

Yep (hopefully so), I predicted this in october:

3. Killers
4. Infinite Dreams
