I can’t drink as much anymore, as I have high uric acid. I still enjoy one beer maybe once a week. I don’t drink in the spring and summer though. This time of year is great, as I love the Belgium Christmas beers and high ABV stouts. I am currently drinking a Marks and Spencer Winter Ale. It is...

How You Remind Me by Nickelback. It is just an incredibly well written song from a very bland band. All Summer Long by Kid Rock. A great pastiche of Sweet Home Alabama from a complete twat.

I have a £10 Waterstones voucher and I am debating on picking up the book. I would get it for £29.99 with the voucher. I am going to be blunt: is the book worth it?

It’s a cracking song that deserves some recognition. TETMD is great, but overplayed. Infinite Dreams will never come back. OTGDY could have fitted in well on the RFYL or TFP tours.

It was in 2021 when some DJ/journalist was doing a Twitter listening party to SSOASS. There were lots of quotes attached to songs that would appear when you got to that particular song at the same time as everyone else. When it got to OTGDY, I remember the tweet saying something along the lines...

Saying ‘I would rather see the band go out on a high’ is not a negative. It’s a more dignified end for a band of Maiden’s stature.

Of course you are. I’m just not attacking you personally for yours.

Ok, pal. You win. I will sit here in my narcissistic tendencies. I’m done with this shit. It’s a fucking forum for opinions.

Ok. Message received. Opinion not welcome here. Last time I checked, forums were a place of discussion and debate. I still love Maiden. But not unconditionally.

I would be happy if Maiden retired in the next few years. That might be a weird thing to say as a massive Maiden fan. It’s just how I feel. I will still see them live when I can, but I hope they don’t drag things out too long.

Seriously, fuck modern concert ticket prices.

It depends on what mood I’m in as to what set list I find the best. It is a toss up between Legacy and Furure Past. They were amazing.

TFP tour was really special. It’s hard to top that setlist!

I know it is disappointing for the American fans. However, it’s a big ass country and they are old.
