RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

By the way, is it just me or do they play the riff a little faster here, only with 2 guitars.
Its faster. A bit but yes it is. No idea why they played like this without adrian. Simon is good but i still think the band is missing something...Idk ....

They need to sound more alive. I miss that liveliness they had (maybe is the tempo idk).

I still find the tempo of the songs a bit sluggish, even though they’ve picked up the pace a little in recent shows.
 
Glad you didn't go and se AC/DC then hahahaha their shirts were around €60

I went and saw Mogwai last year and I still remember that the t-shirt was more expensive than the ticket hahahahahaha
I saw Anthrax in Stockholm last week and they had different prices for the shirts, the most expensive (with tour dates) was around 60 euros also..

The tempo is ok to me. The sound is what i see it has chsnged and for me is not the drummer. What you say to play more alive its what i felt when i saw them a month ago. Everything was clear and well separate. I miss the raw. Something has changed, about the way they the sound is mixed. They sounded exactly like helloween sound nowadays. The same thing helloween is using they are using it now....
 
Maybe someone has adressed it before, but the opening band in Paris seemed to use backing tracks, at least for the choruses. Am I wrong ? Anyone else noticed it?
 
Seen a short on youtube with Steve, and also Bruce saying it at the gig, that Maiden are the only metal band to play at San Siro.

Did Metallica not play there?

It was Evergrey, right? Phenomenal band (one of my favourites!) but yeah, unfortunately for the last few years they use backing tracks for the choruses with additional backing vocals and synth layers. It's pretty disappointing since they really don't need to do that, but it is what it is, I suppose.
 
Realistically even if they wanted to Blaze couldn't join Maiden at Knebworth on stage could he? Because all their songs are in E standard still and he plays even his own material in D nowadays, so would probably still sound as strained in E as he did in 1998.

Blaze plays friday maiden saturday
 
I would absolutely love it if Maiden decided to perform one song with Bruce and Blaze sharing vocals at Knebworth.

The most obvious choice, I think, would be Fear of the Dark. Blaze's baritone would suit the slower sections of the song beautifully, while Bruce could take over the more soaring parts.

It would also feel like the right thing to do, especially if the reports are true that Steve pushed behind the scenes for Blaze to be included in the Rock Hall induction. And on a more personal level, it would help bring a certain emotional arc full circle for Blaze.

I'm 100% on board with the idea.

Please, make it happen.

Steve and Bruce have already been asked about that and said no. Steve also said he wouldn't be joining Blaze on stage during his set.
