No prayer represented just by an image. Sad.

even that wasn't necessary. The first part of Fear with the moon is a lot better than the rest.

Dave's wearing dark glasses because he's seeing Maiden's future and it looks very bright.

Better watch this before it’s taken down. It’s pretty rough though
Thankfully this is far better:
The Garlon

Dang, that is rough. I've always thought the Live After Death version was rough but I think this is worse.

Now that’s Aces Low-height and The Crackedvoyant (well, not that much with Clairvoyant)

Time for AcEbs High? I suppose they could just swap spots with NotB if they don’t want to downtune. It definitely isn’t working at this spot in the setlist

That’s why I say that Aces should get retired and put Tailgunner or whatever else

What's crazy is the performance of Aces High in Helsinki was pretty good from what I saw (before the video was taken down)

Posted a mirror, go back the pages.
Everything about this show is seeming more and more phoned in to me.

Looking good and odd. They rock them.

Maiden Priest!Wow, this is so, so bad. Shame for a vocalist like Bruce. Is he sick? Why do it to yourself. Just because of the video... come on. This better be deleted, it's a low for Bruce's career. We are happy and it is a bonus celebration, but this tour has quite a few things to complain about, all things considered. Although I understand them wanting something different.

edit: I think Aces could potentially be replaced for the 2nd leg. If not, idk what to think about. And it's not like Bruce hasn't admitted that this is one of his hardest songs to sing. It's a big and very popular classic, but since they played it in 2022, they could have easily skipped it. The band is not to blame, it's Bruce. It should be retired, since 2019. If they drop it now, that would be like them/Bruce admitting they can't do it, so I can't see that happening, but if they release a live concert from this tour, I don't think there is a single version of the song I can enjoy. Which is wow. IMO, if you have to downtune a song, then don't play it at all. Aces as an opener is tough enough. I guess they don't think it's a song for the middle of a set. The tour is too-SBIT heavy, not cool at all. The show didn't need it. I think the song is played for one last time.
- if it's for the screen video and they don't want to play a song from NPFTD (Be Quick would be a perfect replacement, not video wise. Same goes for Sanctuary) - then just do Icarus with the same screen video theme. Sure, no planes, but it's another anthem and could look pretty cool. With screens it's easier now. But the real problem is --- they don't change/rotate songs. Since the 90's. Bruce's solo tour is different.
And why Clairvoyant is slow? Should we blame Simon or Bruce/Adrian/Steve? I don't get it. The tempo is like for the last tour, how to call that rejuvenated...

It's the ego of Bruce. We all know that after 2022, Aces High should've been retired. They are too old.
But no, they roll it out again (despite playing 3 other Powerslave songs) and they put it into encore of all places. "No, I can do it... You will see:.. etc. etc.". And here we are.
