Fear Of The Dark and The Trooper. They're classic. They're great. But man I would be OK if I never heard them played live ever again. I honestly hope they keep them away from the RFYL tour.

The only reason I own the record is because it's Maiden. Other than that I never listen to it. I almost forget it exists. Looking back it says alot about the band that they even survived the 90's. This, Fear, X Factor and Virtual XI are average at best.

It's SiT and Powerslave for me. I never liked the tone on Fear Of The Dark. It feels muddy.

I don’t get why anyone has an issue with this selection. The band has always picked replacements that are at arms length.

Fuck

I was dead set on the idea they switch out Celts with The Parchment but after seeing the show, I couldn't have been more wrong. I love The Parchment but in the context of the show, it would have slowed things down a little too much. Celts has a fatser pace and more moving parts. It was perfect here.

This was still my favorite setlist they ever put together. I really hope a live album comes out of it. That would be great.

Maiden without Nicko? Come on man.

What an absolute banger that was last night. Bruce is still running around like he's in his twenties toying with the microphone stand and has not lost a single step in his delivery and how he energizes the crowd. The band plowed through with precision and finesse. Even Death of the Celts which I...

"The set list was appalling to be honest with you. Although a lot of their music is fantastic to pick mostly besides off of the unknown albums I felt shorted the fans on a concert that we all waited a long time to see. Most fans of the audience had never heard any of those songs other than the...

It would be nice if they did release one more album without the intention of touring it. A simple farewell for the fans. Maybe package a new live album with it. And can it be a little more uplifting and less brooding this time? After Senjutsu I wanted to wear bright colors and sunbathe for a year.

I find this upcoming tour to be kind of unnecessary. I'm more excited about the current one (seeing them in Nov) because they ignored SiT for so long. They already did Legacy. If it's their last one, I get it. But what about the last 20 plus years? So many songs nobody has ever heard live...

I understand Steve and company are shit broke but did they really need to milk it by making you buy Number of the Beast which everyone and my dead grandma owns just to get Beast Over Hammersmith? It makes me wish my favorite band was Skid Row. They only have one good album to worry about buying.

Death Of The Celts is a bad song. The Parchment should take it's place live. The Parchment doesn't make me think of kilts and that's a good thing.
