Um, didn't you actually find a sign pointing to the opposite - to dissatisfaction within the band? That's something a teacher, for example, might do with a weak student who's trying hard and has managed to get something right once in a while. It's not necessary for someone who's simply...

So, it's all about selling branded Viagra - both from Bruce solo and from Maiden? This is going to be a huge success.

Uh, no, I don't see anything at all. That post makes zero sense. Some people think there's an astroturfing campaign going on. Still, we're having a reasonable discussion about Simon as a drummer - people here are sharing their opinions and reasons why they like him or don't. No one's trying to...

I haven't found anything that Bruce has said about the new album at the ComicCon. Is anyone better at searching than I am?

If this campaign exists, and these people are still reading here, you know what? If there really were doubts within the band and they were reconsidering, you could be the deciding factor for keeping Simon. Because when a decision is close, something like this often triggers a feeling of, “Now...

I don't really understand myself right now. I'm not really looking forward to his autobiography.

There’s something to that. Maybe he himself believed that being able to play in a style very close to Nicko’s was his greatest advantage, and yet that might have been a key reason why they decided against him.

Recent surprising decisions and statements from band member have made me very skeptical about such claims. Just one example: Some people here “knew” for sure that it wasn’t like Maiden to add “Infinite Dreams” to the second leg… I now think a lot of things are possible…

Why do Iron Maiden and its (former) members favor Germany? Where can I complain officailly about this?

I wouldn't completly rule it out. :D

I don't have high expectations for this album. I was disappointed by Mandrake, and this album is coming out so soon after it, even though he surely put his best ideas into Mandrake, why not? But of course, I'd love to be pleasantly surprised.

I do think you can say that Maiden could have found a better drummer if they’d gone through a proper selection process. That said, I still saw a really good live band this summer whose performance I enjoyed. I always find it silly when people bring up the fact that they’re 70 years old. I...

I agree. Hopefully, they won't use these recordings. The songs are not a good represenation of how the songs sounded live on that tour and that is what I'd want to go back to that if I bought this concert film. Apparently, Adrian can't decide whether he wants to be a dark-haired or a blond...

Sometimes I wonder if the rumor that his hair has actually been a wig for quite some time is true. It would totally fit with certain photos. In those photos, the wig would have simply slipped back.

It's not a given that everyone starts taking finasteride when their hair starts thinning, with side effects like a decreased libido and erectile dysfunction. Many men also prefer to opt for a hair system, a hair transplant, or perhaps even a wig, and nothing else.
