It wasn't. On that list Hallowed and ID were just moved to the end of the lighting queue.
Pleaaase dont play tailgunner lol. Is aces high in second division. I really hope there is another surprise and not tailgunner. Thanks that the band havent say a word about this song since 1992.
Atss? Never heard this rumor. ATG would be a super choice if they change aces and another that could be clairvoyant. Im fine with clairvoyant on the setlist.But AtSS was also featured in the early version of the setlist. I've always thought that it did replace ID, but this picture says the opposite. Both were meant to be performed on the tour.
Just to make this clear, I'm not saying they'd play both AH and ID. I was thinking about ID replacing AH.
Not for the current tour, that was about Maiden England 2013.
No. This just means those songs were programmed lighting-wise. Hallowed and ID were dropped during rehearsals and were just moved to the end in case if the band decides to include them again. Light programming starts before the band plays a note in rehearsals. Usually the lighting director starts programming as soon as the lighting rig layout is confirmed by the band. That's why those 2 were programmed.But AtSS was also featured in the early version of the setlist. I've always thought that it did replace ID, but this picture says the opposite. Both were meant to be performed on the tour.

The changed ID for ATSS because bruce wasnt into it
Running Free replaced Hallowed.
Oh, yeah. I forgot that they carried it from 2011 tour because of the lawsuit.
Yup. Both disappearances of it from the set were due to the lawsuit.
I dont think alexander will be played. Just because they didnt play in athens last tour and 4 epics in the same setlist would be great but nothing more. I guess ID is confirmed now i hope they change aces high for it and not the clairvoyant. I think is not that overplayed maybe 2003 2008 2013 and i think thats all?Tailgunner is about bombers, Aces High is about Spitfires. The video wouldn't match the theme of the song - and I don't believe that Bruce would let this happen
Infinite Dreams is basically confirmed now. I guess that there'll be another change, although I'm expecting an evergreen, not a deep cut.
During the Maiden England rehearsals the idea was to play Infinite Dreams during encores... So: AH->ID? If this is the case, then the question is: which song would replace The Clairvoyant (since it's the one that's the most likely to get axed)? Revelations? The Evil That Men Do? The latter is perhaps the most realistic option, but on the other hand, the setlist would be SSoaSS-heavy. Then again, the 2025 was Powerslave-heavy, so it may not be a problem from the band's POV.
Tbh I don't believe in Alexander, not this time. Bring Your Daughter should be performed (and it'd work really well as the first encore slot), but the band seems not to like NPftD. I haven't seen the movie yet, and I'm not 100% if the quote is from Burning Ambition, but recently I've heard that someone from Maiden said that they don't like playing this material live.
