    Blaze Bayley

    I'm from Toronto, Canada and will be heading to the Edinburgh and Glasgow shows. I've been waiting for Blaze Bayley to return to North America but that seems increasingly less likely. I've always wanted to visit Scotland and am planning to do 1-2 big hikes, and visit a few distilleries while I'm...

    Set list stats (reunion era - 1999 to 2022)

    Thanks but @Blood On The World´s Hand deserves most of the credit. He put the data together, I just updated it for the past few years. I was dissapointed they didn't play it last year. (Plus, it's fairly easy, both for Dickinson, and the rest of the band). If they continue touring in 2028...

    Blaze Bayley

    Blaze Bayley kicked off his tour two days ago. It looks like a great setlist: It's a strong setlist with good coverage across both of his Maiden albums. Ideally I would have liked to see but no complaints. I wonder if some/all of these songs are played in D# standard tuning.

    Fan Club

    My understanding is yes, as long as you're a fan club member in time for the draw, you're eligible. You need a floor ticket. (Some shows have front and rear floors, in which case, you'd need front floor). My understanding is the fan club isn't going to verify what type of ticket you hold. If...

    Blaze Bayley

    Thank you - much appreciated. I'll try to figure this out over the next few weeks.

    Blaze Bayley

    It's looking less likely that Blaze Bayley will do a Maiden-themed show (or any concert, for that matter) in North America. I'm considering visiting the UK in October. Am I correct in thinking that the closest shows to London would be Southend, Bedford and Worthing?

    News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

    Iron Maiden Touring LLP files audited financial statements each year. Anyone can access them. The trends show that the band's ability to generate revenue (turnover) and profit have increased over time. This objectively contradicts the doomsday narrative. The audited financial statements for the...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    For what it's worth - Infinite Dreams is tougher than average on bass, but it's not exceptionally difficult either. If Harris is able to play "Phantom", "Rime", "Death of the Celts", and "Caught Somewhere in Time" in recent years, that's not the issue.

    The Concert Thread

    I meant to post this in December, but better late than never. I saw 13 concerts in 2025 (down from 18 in 2024). These are roughly ordered from best to worst: Iron Maiden - I flew to Budapest to see the first two shows of the Run For Your Lives tour. I've written about the experience in more...

    News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

    I spent a few months on exchange in Argentina. It's such a beautiful country, and Buenos Aires is my favourite city that I've travelled to. (As I mentioned in another post, Argentina should be as wealthy as Australia or Canada, but it's been bled dry by decades of corruption and mismanagement)...

    Steve Harris

    Agreed. I can't say I've ever looked forward to them opening for Maiden, but it's quite a sad post to read.

    News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

    Looks like the 1st Toronto show is virtually sold out (I'd guess 98-99% gone). For the 2nd night, the floor is sold out, but at least half the seats are still available.

    News 18th Studio Album discussion

    Unfortunately, this sounds accurate. I'd love an "X Factor to Senjutsu" tour, but after getting a taste of stadiums, I have a hard time imagining the band would dedicate a tour to their least popular albums, especially since it would mean a big downgrade in attendance (revenue), on what would...
