    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    I would imagine if we ever see any other blaze songs in a maiden setlist it will likely be man on the edge or futureal and that’s it. Even that’s a bit of a stretch but the only likely candidates in my opinion.

    50th Anniversary Documentary Announcement

    They couldn’t even get a 50th anniversary documentary released in their 50th year. I mean, they’ve only had 50 years to plan and make it :facepalm:

    After seeing them at Earl’s Court it was a surreal experience watching them in such a small venue. Like you said it was more like a club gig. My first experience of the band live was with blaze on the x-factor and VXI tours at the Brixton academy but when Bruce came back I was lucky enough to...

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    I’m pretty sure they have played this live. I’ll need to double check but back in 2000 when I was a member of the fan club there were two things I remember. First up the fc convention in London the day after the Earl’s Court gig. Last time I think the band ever attended one of these. Then there...

    Well that’s a stupid reply as you’re quite right, if he decides he doesn’t feel like singing anymore then he shouldn’t. If a band doesn’t feel like making an album then they shouldn’t. It’s not up to the fans to decide what a band does or doesn’t do. Bands don’t owe their fans anything but a...

    18th Studio Album discussion

    I was a fan long before BNW came out and I don’t remember many people bashing the production of the album at the time. To be fair I wasn’t very active on forums as 25 years ago the internet wasn’t as available as it is now and social media didn’t exist but amongst the fans I knew and spoke with...

    I’ve said I think they’ll be no new album and I stand by that, despite others not agreeing. I hope I’m proved wrong I really do as I’d love a new album but I don’t think it’s gonna happen. Here’s my take on Maidens future: I think once Nicko hung up the drum sticks the rest of the band...

    18th Studio Album discussion

    I’m not happy at all. I’d love to have another Maiden album. I just think that they boys are too interested in touring at the moment and due to their ages it’s very unlikely we will get another album. A maiden album is a big event. A new Eddie a whole marketing campaign and new merch plus a...

    Lol, why do we have to read between the lines? You’ve been told there’s no plans for a new album. That’s it, you’ve got the info you need. Anything else is pure speculation by a bunch of fans who are so desperate for a new album they will just assume anything that fits their narrative that...

    Megadeth

    I love SFSGSW, the only thing that hurts the album to my ears is that god awful cover of anarchy in the uk. I could stomach the song a lot more if it was say right at the end of the album but putting the track at number 3 in between set the world afire and Mary Jane was a stupid idea and...

    Testament

    Cheers. Your right not much activity lol. Maybe there’s not a lot of testament fans in this forum, shame as I love them and was hoping to read what others thought of the new album. Never mind, back to listening to Para Bellum then :shred:

    Testament

    Done a quick search and can’t believe their isn’t a Testament thread :oops: Maybe I missed it and didn’t search properly but theirs nothing on the front page of this sub forum so even if their was a thread no one’s been talking about them recently which considering their new album dropped today...

    IRON MAIDEN: 'Infinite Dreams - The Official Visual History' Book Due In The Fall

    My first Maiden show was on the X-factour at the Brixton academy in London. Cracking night as I was a big fan of the support band that night, My Dying Bride. Can’t remember much about the stage set up but I do remember Blaze being rooted to the same spot all night just fist pumping while...

    So you had one experience with Nicko once for a few seconds and judged him as completely rude an arrogant all the time :facepalm: I love how fans are so quick to judge an entire personality over a whole lifetime just because for the few seconds they demand attention and want an autograph said...
