RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

I've examined and inspected few recordings of Infinite Dreams.
I think Bruce does remarkably well here, if not even better than I had hoped. Really shining moment and glad to hear his current voice with the song.
I really don't have anything against anything, but I feel somehow that drums do sound a bit weak. I only have few live recordings from the first night (not isolated so can't hear all the things properly) against all the previous live recordings (1988 as you know) and isolated track featuring Nicko on the album. There's something off and I don't quite yet like it. Im not a drummer, but can someone explain or tell me how Simon plays things song in comparison Nicko?
Now thinking I really wish that they would have played this on the Maiden England World Tour as then it would have Nicko in good health, stamina and power.

As bruce said you cant expect nicko because he is not nicko. For me sounds more contundent and short sounding. Nicko was lighter but i dont know he filled the songs more. I havent olay the drums and i dont know anything about drums. But he sound more fat and short ( the sound)

I’m not a drummer either, so I can’t speak as to how Simon plays vs Nicko. However, it’s gotta be the snare. Something sounds so strange about it to me. It’s a bit weak, and it doesn’t sound quite right. Although he does play well and has some good fills.

Honestly, I’d want them to start playing more songs from the Blaze era. Stuff like Man on the Edge, Lord of the Flies, Blood on the Worlds hands, Futureal, Educated Fool. They have gotta move on from clansman and sign of the cross.

Just add one to the set I would be so happy. Futureal and Man on the edge Re corkers
