That's what I got from reading the article too. Bruce was referring to specific songs in which they have fallen into a groove with and he wants to approach those songs in a different way this time around. What exactly he means by that...we have to wait and see.

Tour dates will be announced this Thursday

I think Bruce, for the most part, is sounding fantastic on this tour. But he does seem to get tired around the encore.

I really don't understand why some people think they're going to play songs from the 90's or songs from The Final Frontier on this tour...

Why is that? They played it in 2003.

Cool?

It just depends what kind of people are there. It can be either really calm or pretty crazy. I've experienced both at Maiden shows.

The only excuse for them not to to play all of the repeated Seventh Son tracks is that this is the 'Maiden England Tour' and not the 'Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son' tour. So that way they can at least drop one of the repeats (Can I Play With Madness?). But I think we know that's not going to happen.

This tour has amazing potential for a lot of extremely rare songs to be played but we wont get them all. We'll get Number Of The Beast, Two Minutes To Midnight, Fear Of The Dark in their place instead. And we kind of already had a 7th Son tour in 2008. They played Moonchild, Can I Play With...

I guess all we can hope for is that when they said that they'll be playing 2/3 of the Maiden England set, that they didn't include or have Hallowed Be Thy Name and Iron Maiden in mind since those are always played no matter what. But sadly, I'm pretty sure that's exactly what they meant and had...

Haha. Basically, I'm glad I got to see Paschendale rather than Dance Of Death but I'm still jealous of those who got to see Dance of Death.

Haha. Imagine if that actually happened? That would be a nightmare. But yeah, like on the 2010 tour, they were switching Dance of Death and Paschendale...I got Paschendale but really wanted to hear Dance of Death, even though I prefer Paschendale. I just don't like it that much. What Maiden...

Exactly. I'm sure I'd get jealous. Haha.

I doubt it. They changed the setlist in 2009 because they were playing places they haven't played for in a long time.

How do paperless tickets work exactly? This will be my first time using them. As far as the pit at Irvine goes, it is small so it really doesn't matter how late you arrive, you'll still be very close. But if you'd like to get as close as you can, then get there earlier.
