RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2025 Tour Thread *SPOILERS INSIDE*

Fingers crossed, it’s a long shot but I might be attending Madrid but won’t be able to go to Lisbon if I miss it.

It’s been ages since I was in the Fan Club, how far in advance do they announce FTTB? Wondering if I should sign up again or if that ship has sailed.

My show was on monday and the email came around wednesday.
 
You know, I don't remember getting anything for FTTB at Manchester. Either my email stuck it in spam or it didn't happen

I'm sorry but have you ever listened to SSOASS studio version? haha!

In all fairness it's likely the middle section has extended out a bit live purely out of them not really knowing when to come back in .. But the studio version does have 2.5 minutes roughly of it

It’s not a matter of not knowing when to come in, they do it the same way every night, and did it the same way every night on the 2012-14 tour as well.

For my own amusement I just ran the studio version and 2025 live arrangement simultaneously to see exactly where it’s longer.

It’s thirty seconds of clicky clacky bass...

As far as I am concerned, I thought there was no need to make the song longer than the studio version in 2012-2014 and my opinion has not changed.

Ironic that in LOTB tour with Where Eagles Dare, and probably previous tours, they reduce the pre-solo section quite a bit compared to the studio version (I'm sure of it anyway...). WED is quite a word song for Bruce and high too.. But they've reduced his breather time!

They shortened the solo too. LOTB version is basically 2005 version, so they did the modifications to the song before Early Days tour.

This is pretty cool. Will it be sold at the shows only, or is there another way like the dive bar or something?

Not at the dive bar, usually another stand, probably inside/closer to the arena. Then it's available online after the french shows are over for a short period.

They shortened Angel and and the Gambler on the 1998 tour fairly soon into it when they all realised what a heinous crime Steve had commited writing it

Wasn’t the song already shortened when they played it live in 1993?
Click to expand...
That's the '86 version or arrangement, which is missing one of the verses after the solo section. A really strange place to shorten it since it skips over a part of the "story" of the song. I don't recall if they did anything to the solo or the pre-solo part which got shortened in '05.

Also the '93 one is so goddamned fast it's shortened quite a bit from that alone!

I bet Steve was the only one that didn't realize it right when they were recording it lol. It's probably a testimony of how much this band is first and foremost Steve's band
