I would be too horrified too fall asleep ...5. Fear is the key (most people have fallen asleep at this point)

Yeah, I guess falling asleep depends on how much energy you have to begin with.I would be too horrified too fall asleep ...
Agreed, although I think Gangland is mediocre and Twilight Zone is kinda meh (still it's an exception regarding the first 2 albums. I like all the rest of them).I'm constantly surprised at how different Maidenfans' tastes actually are. Charlotte, Another Life, Drifter and Twilight Zone are among my favourites, The Assasin, Fates Warning and Public Enema Number One are precisely the NPFD songs I kinda like, and I've always liked Gangland.
There are far more serious cases here. The Man Of Sorrows is not in my list but it's not too far. Still an enjoyable song to listen to yet kinda skipable.All of you putting The Man Of Sorrows in any "terrible" or "worst" list should be ashamed of yourselves.
Agreed with the exception of Hooks in you. I don't mind Speed Of Light (just find it lackluster).Funny enough, the bolded section would be pretty awesome set, even if it could be paced differently.
This setlist is messy, boring, and the songs that are good don't fit well with the rest.Intro: Satellite 15 (w/o The Final Frontier)
--- advertising: brand new "Prodigal Ronf" headrest out now!! ---
- The Angel and the Gambler - full version, slow and boring start is 100% guaranteed
- Tailgunner - IMHO their worst opener
- The Apparition - ...
- 2 AM - at least, the gig seemed to speed a bit up... so let's fix it
- Weekend Warrior - the only good thing in this song is the melodic break between the solos
- The Nomad - which isn't really that bad... but the best part is a shameful plagiarism
- The Assassin - I always laugh when I think of this song
--- advertising: brand new "Sleep on the Hills" mattress out now!! ---
- Don't Look to the Eyes of a Stranger - RIR restarted with a long song, so we do
- Isle of Avalon - actually, with two long songs
- Fear is the Key - and I'm really scared by this setlist
- The Fugitive - one of the most nonsense songs in their career
- Look for the Truth - zzz...
- Flash of the Blade - not a big fan of Powerslave, and IMHO this song is the worst
- Iron Maiden - it's an IM show, after all
Outro: Always look at the bright side of life
- Hooks in You - second worst song by H, IMHO
- Bring Your Daughter... to the Slaughter - extended break with band presentation...
2. Alexander the Great's wind intro
IMO The Unbeliever is kinda messy, The Mercenary and Man Of Sorrows are quite a snooze fest and the only awful song here is Age Of Innocence. I also think Blood On The World's Hands and Face In The Sand are tricky to pull out live properly (for different reasons).1. Different World
2. No More Lies
3. Age of Innocence
4. The Great Unknown
5. The Unbeliever
6. The Thin Line Between Love and Hate
7. The Mercenary
8. Mother Russia
9. Futureal
10. Man of Sorrows
11. Isle of Avalon
12. The Prophecy
13. Face in the Sand
14. These Colours Don't Run
15. Look For The Truth
16. Fates Warning
17. Blood on the World's Hands
This, plus the fact that most of these songs don't have crowd-unifying or even decent vocal melodies and just picture yourselves being there: the sequence is a bit all over the place, apart for the opener. It is not only a matter of liking the songs a lot or not, it is also about dynamics, about the impact they may have as a bulk in a live context. (ok, some of them are bad but 1. we're not supposed to tell; 2. it depends on each user. )IMO The Unbeliever is kinda messy, The Mercenary and Man Of Sorrows are quite a snooze fest and the only awful song here is Age Of Innocence. I also think Blood On The World's Hands and Face In The Sand are tricky to pull out live properly (for different reasons).

oh man hahah7. Bruce halts the performance and starts ranting after seeing some dumbass fan doing something stupid in the crowd. They don't bother to start the song over again and move on to the next one:
Bruce's Children of the Damned story was a nadir. I cringed every time I heard it.5. Parents having sex joke 2016-17 revisited
