I would surprised if we get another album. It is clear that they are in the latter stages of their career. Although a more album would be nice, I think touring is the priority now. Part of me also likes the thought of Hell on Earth being their final song. Still, I won’t complain if another...

I watched the live video of Starchildren from the warmup shows. I’m not a huge fan of the song but I really dug it live. Probably because it hasn’t got that annoying pipe clanging sound throughout most of the song.

The highlight of the Legacy set list for sure. Sign of the Cross and Flight of Icarus back to back was insane!

I would take Maiden playing the same set list every night to them rotating the set list with a click track. I hate the concept with a passion. Maiden haven’t rotated songs really ever. 2010 is one occasion that I can think of. I don’t know why people complain about it anymore.

I’ve been unable to fish the river all winter because of the rain here in the UK. Now the rivers have closed the weather has improved. Typical! To be fair, he was probably fishing!

The rivers are closed from the 15th March to 15th June. Some stillwaters are open during this time.

That’s what I need. I’ve been balding 22. 12 years later and the grass has gone.

Well done! I’m in an identical situation to you. Finally started with some short runs. All that sitting during lockdowns wrecked my hip flexors.

I recently offloaded my aluminium case copy of TFF. It was falling apart and I hated how tacky it looked. I’m going to replace it with the digipak version.

Do you think he is physically fit to be on the road for a few months? I’m not being unkind, but he looked bigger than I remember.

I have been sorting out my music collection today and I was having a look at which albums I have multiple copies of. Here are my top 5. Dance of Death. Original CD, Remastered 2015 CD, DVD Audio and 2017 vinyl reissue. Senjutsu. CD, book CD, vinyl and box set (the latter I snagged for £12 last...

Hard pass for me. Luckily I can’t see Maiden pulling something like this.

I’m just out for a walk listening to Maiden and I decided on Senjutsu. Maybe they should open with the title track again… In all seriousness I actually enjoyed it as an opener but I wouldn’t want to see it again.

Would I be right in thinking that the last time they opened a show with a song that wasn’t an album opener was Murders in the Rue Morgue in 2005? I thought the use of Beast in 2003 was quite quirky and worked well. I could see them bringing back something like Ides of March followed by either...

I know. It’s absurd. They are not even that big.
