When I have a bad day I usually don't listen to Maiden. I keep them to have everything about them connected with pure positive spirits. They're too important and too long lasting (in general, and also in my personal life yet) to throw them in a pot together with any kind of negative emotions...

It's nice btw Wasting Love didn't get a single mention here yet, though I was sure it was to be named early. Great song.

I think it's not boring, but they didn't do themselves a favour by having played it live. It didn't work, and that was mainly because of Bruce. No More Lies and The Clansman are both very boring IMHO. They both have interesting intros, but the rest is a whole yawn fest.

Are there any Maiden songs you'd consider boring, and if so, which are these? I personally think The Trooper is utterly boring, and not only because it's overplayed. Lost In A Lost World also does not impress me at all and would be a very boring song - if there wasn't the slow outro (which by...

Anybody out there with some personal experiences micing a 4x12 guitar cab with a Sennheiser e935 dynamic mic? I`m looking for an additional mic for my collection and the e935 seems interesting. Thanks for sharing any experiences! :-)

Will you get it or not? I probably will, main reason is the bad quality cover print of the regular LAD vinyl. I hope they improved the printing this time without cutting lots of the edges off.

Aces High and 2MtM indeed were shot in Hannover. They did the shooting when the stage was put together for the first time, few days later they set off to Poland. It was just around the corner from my place. :-)

Hannover 2026 btw was also a clever move for marketing reasons. This year we had Bremen, but if there was Bremen and Hannover announced by the same time, both venues would compete with each other. I mean, I don't mind at all because I am anyway trying to see as many Maiden shows as possible.

Were there actually any interviews with Simon been done yet? Or was he ordered to remain silent?

What do you dislike about TBOS? And what makes SJ a much better album for you?

Thought about getting the black one, the band logo on the left is nice, but the "Infinite Dreams" writing below ruins it all for me.

Hamburg few days later felt great! :)

Great you brought in the b-sides as well, and I utterly agree about That Girl. Good one.
