Interesting indeed, 15 year anniversary merch to celebrate the release of Final Frontier. I´m not complaining, but what are the odds they celebrate 35 years of No Prayer For The Dying in October... probably similar to... hmm... someone being unassailable prey to Eddie.
It is July -07, the summer tour has just ended and Maiden officially announce their plans for the following year. Where No-One Would Tour 2008 is due to kick off in February and come to a halt all the way down in October (note: despite hint in the name of the tour, Where Eagles Dare does not...
I don´t buy shirts on history tours - only album tours. So I didn´t even look at the gig what there is to offer in case of setlist clues. But most of them seem ok, and obviously I´ve seen some in the official store.
For me he´s like a retired football player who spent over a decade in the same club. Part of the club but in the same time not. I considered Simon the new drummer the moment I read about it, but it has nothing to do with disrespect to Nicko.
If that happens and there´s a Q&A section I´ll pay if someone asks hey Bruno what´s the name of the 8th Iron Maiden studio album? And including three tips: 1. Released in October 1990 (well actually he´s so bad at remembering correct years so maybe just these following two) 2. Janick´s first...
My rough guess with there and thereabout dates:
Europe May 25 - June 20
North America July
South America August 5 - 20
Australia, New Zealand, Japan September 1 - September 20
Nice to see they gave Janick some spotlight in that thanks for the tour video, iirc usually he´s not there at all or the last person. But that´s not gonna save them from a bit of a slap in the face. Referring to the setlist obviously, last time. While they say they´re not a cabaree band, still...
Most likely, as thanks heavens there will be no 3rd leg in 2027. Although it would in a way be amusing if they dropped a few classics and made way for rarer material. Give Europeans what they don't want (hits) and give americans what they don't want (deep cuts).
Some year and a half later (pun intended) but anyway: Wait a minute. So there actually IS time travelling in The Big Bang Theory universe AND Sheldon wasn't the one who invented it :O
Actually edit for some reason I thought Aces High wasn't released by 89-90... must be the heat wave taking its toll
Both obviously wanted him to stay. Also, to add salt to the wounds of haters, Janick offered to step down but Adrian refused to return if he did. Let that sink in posers. In all honesty, it would have been a massive d*ck move to say "Yeah thanks for carrying the band for the last nine years but...
Okay I´m just gonna say it what many are thinking...
...would it have killed them to play one effing song for one tour from NPFTD for the first time in 22 years?? I´m probably never gonna get over it!
I try something different: improving both Somewhere On Tour and 7th Tour of A 7th Tour by one simple change: swapping places of Children of the Damned and The Prisoner. They both would fit thematically better after switch in my view.
