RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2025 Tour Thread *SPOILERS INSIDE*

The crowds changed drastically over the years, I've seen every Maiden tour from 1990 on, and it got constantly quieter. Which is a thing I don't mind btw. Being 50 now, I don't need to behave at a concert like a 15 year old anymore, and all that pushing around etc. pissed me off in 1990 already. So, things got better. :-)
Yeah I get the pushing around can be too much, and I'm not into either, but the people coming together to burn their lungs on the most memorable melodies is an important part of the Maiden experience

Phones. Its true. If you check videos from 90s i can understand they want to go back to that.for the audience and for them
I guess phones killed shows, but taking them out now doesn't change the culture that they created, at least looking at the videos, it's not like they brought back the ancient atmosphere
 
Backup in case of tango down:

We shall go on to the end. We shall film them at Donington. Even as the riffs grow muddy and the vocals go flat, we shall not be deterred. We shall take out our phones, despite the glares from security. We shall zoom in when Bruce misses a note. We shall capture every out-of-breath gallop and every flubbed solo.

We shall upload them.

We shall post them to YouTube, to TikTok, to obscure metal forums with names like Eddie’s Revenge. We shall tag them with “#IronMaidenFail,” even as our Wi-Fi falters. We shall endure copyright strikes and comment section wars, but we shall not falter.

We shall film them at the barricades.
We shall film them from the nosebleeds.
We shall film them through terrible sound and shaky hands.
We shall film them when the stage pyros misfire and Gers drops his guitar.

Though Rod Smallwallet, hunched over his dusty laptop, shall strike us down with spurious copyright claims, falsely alleging that a 14-second video with garbled audio is a threat to their empire—still, we shall appeal.
We shall re-upload.
We shall never surrender.
