I usually set my delay time to around 400-420ms just as I like a 'slightly' longer delay, but it's still comfortable and doesn't get too much in the way of the following 'playing' notes. Of course, you should play around to find what you like, or focus in on the 370-380 range for that 1/8th note...

If it's any help, the delay time measurement on this would be roughly 380ms, up or down slightly depending on the BPM as mentioned by KostamojeN - but if you have a way to tap-tempo it, then yeah set to dotted 8ths and tap tempo to the quarter note of the BPM

Won't be long before we get some people saying "maIdeN SoLd oUt" though...

I recall them going round to H's place for a jam, but I thought that was more for a 'fun' evening - would be interesting to know if they actually trialed it for SK

I wonder who might have jammed with them? I think Julia and Bruno are great, (and probably not taking as much of a $ cut as some higher-profile players, but I'm sure that wouldn't be the main thing..), but would be interesting to know who else might have been involved initially

100%. Nicko-isms. I've never quite been able to put my finger on it, but myself and a colleague of mine who is a great drummer, discussed it and best we could summarize it as was - Nicko's drumming is explosive yet very refined. The intricate patterns of the ride and kick patterns, the dynamics...

Did they? if so, that's incredible news. I would physically self-combust if I got to hear H play that solo live.

Even though the question is more related to the Smith Kotzen tour setlist, I can only sense a slight hope that maybe Sea of Madness could return (I accept there is an incredibly low chance of this happening). I think Sea of Madness has one of Adrian's greatest solos. On the last Smith Kotzen...

God forbid someone in their late 60s and 70s wants to look good

Couple of good shots of Janick and Davey's rigs. Interesting to see a Neural DSP Quad Cortex in Jan's rig.. Assuming it's just back-backup. And a video to come soon! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CaqPr9G4k/

Someone made a calendar of the Maiden/side project related dates over this year and there was a sizeable gap early October through to end of November. While Bruce is out on tour through October in the US, and Steve starts BL tour end of November, Davey, H and Jan will be hopefully well rested -...

Confirmed: Davey is 100% sitting next to the Infinite Dreams book

It's been mentioned a few times that H does like to swap around a bit nowadays. But as the tour progresses, I assume he gravitates towards certain guitars a little more. The green Jackson he uses on the current tour has mostly been his No. 1 for not far off 10 years. But I think the hooligan...

Agree! As for content on the album - I'd love to see something like 10 tracks - 4 shorter (3-5 minutes) bangers, 4 proggy mid-length (6-8 minutes) and maybe two epic (10 minutes). I mean I'd be happy with anything, but I think the above would be a good mix

There's a small part of me that wants Maiden not to tour in 2026 at all. In the hopes that they can recuperate and write/record a new album - bear in mind they've been on back to back tours around the world since 2022. Or perhaps just a couple of dates in August/September to tease a new album...
