It's quite possible that the negative impression one had of one song (“Aces High”, such a mistake and unnecessary in the setlist) strongly influences and ultimately distorts the impressions of the rest. I'm not saying that's the case for those with a negative opinion - I wouldn't know that. I...

I don't think we can say from a distance that he certainly did or certainly did not have health problems. But it is true that he seems to have aged faster than average.

Too bad. It had made me quite optimistic that a person I know who was there told me Bruce said that Maiden would be around for a long time and already had been, 50 years.

Is it true that Bruce said at the beginning in Gelsenkirchen that Maiden will still be around for a loooong time?

I don’t believe Steve’s statement. Does he perhaps want to appear mysterious and then surprise us? Tours, for example, are planned and organized so long in advance. You have to have an idea of where you want to perform a year and a half in advance and start preparing. It's getting crazier and...

Not an interview, but at least some remarks from Simon.

No, why? You can post your opinion, no matter whether it is different from other opinions.

That must mean confirmation that this pessimistic assumption that this is the last Maiden tour is not true, right? I could only imagine that if new songs are developed while jamming and Simon is there as the drummer.

I had joked that with the guest appearance with Pantera, Bruce managed to pick the most controversial show of the moment. Now I just had the thought that Leana (Bruce???) may not have been able to forgive Phil Anselmo for a drunken mistake, but thought what he did was fine or even admirable? I...

Are these photos taken in London?

I take it that Nicko didn't play anything and didn't come on stage. And wasn't in London either? He mentioned wanting to meet members of The Bands of HM Royal Marines in London again.

Originally I had hoped that Nicko would play a song then, but I have changed my mind. All the comparisons that would then be made would be an unpleasant thing. And Nicko should have played his gigs in mid-June then, not July.

That was just the good old rule "Don't look for a new band member that is trying to sound like a clone of the former band member“.

It's true that some fans just can't handle line-up changes. Even after years, although the new member is objectively an asset, they still complain. I think it's unfair. I haven't watched this video though and don't know if that's the case here.
