I also think it’s one of Bruce’s weaker solo albums. But even so, I don’t understand why that’s supposed to solve the mystery. Because Bruce talked enthusiastically about the album the whole time - and about his collaboration with Roy (at least at first) - when in reality he was thinking the...

Yes, I agree. I just find the statement strange, and I think it (would) fit better with the situation most people see Iron Maiden in.

I also think—at least at first glance—that he’s referring to SK. But then that confused me. Why is he limiting it like that? Why should there only be one more album (or maybe two) with SK? That makes a lot more sense for Maiden. Strange. But anyway: To those of you obsessed with Iron Maiden’s...

I really can’t imagine that their videos weren’t scrutinized closely before they were included in the documentary. Otherwise, that would be unusually sloppy work.

I always found it strange that there was never an official statement. Bands usually issue one because it helps curb speculation. Of course, that often has nothing to do with what the truth actually is. Hopefully not many people here would be that naive again. But something is usually...

And Janick:

He is turning his back on the usual tour schedules, as well as the usual start times.

Do you understand why he loves these paid photo ops so much? I almost thought he would do a few dates in March for his spoken word tour about his biography. I understand that better, because he just loves telling people stories and anecdotes.

Sometimes you wonder why Bruce and Leana even get along with each other.

I think this is a great idea for a remarkable final album: finally add Eddie, the not-so-unimportant character, to the characters that appear in Iron Maiden songs!

I don't think that happened at all. I don't believe Live Nation would make such proposals to a huge band like Maiden, who plan their tours well in advance and know exactly which markets they want to target. The members of the official forum are making up all kinds of things that aren't true...

People often feel that something big and important is happening when they see headlines about it one week, then again the following week, and again the week after that, even if it's not really relevant to their personal plans. I think these kinds of tricks are used in marketing. At least, I...

Does anyone know where Wolf Hoffmann lives these days? Thanks in advance! <3 I'm curious because there's a trend of artists moving back to Germany from the US, like Doro. I wonder if that's the case with Wolf too. I know he moved to Nashville, then most recently to Florida, but now?

Why can't we have the opinion that the management is making mistakes? I think it would have been smarter to announce all the dates in September, one week Europe, then the next week North America, and so on. That could have created real hype for the tour, instead of a partial announcement here...

I still believe that you don't schedule such an extensive, exhausting tour for 2026 and then nothing for 2027 without a very specific, important reason. Otherwise, that would be the plan of a madman. You could also take a break to further reflect on the future without doing absolutely nothing...
