I agree in here with fact A, I'm definitely happy that Maiden are still touring, that they're still in quite good shape (of course, per example I'll always miss Steve running all over the stage or jumping from the drum riser but hey for a 68 year guy, he's doing pretty well and same goes for...
Yes and no. As I've mentionned a few pages before, there are some songs that can easily be played on a traditional drum kit (the five piece one you've mentionned) but there are some others that really need that "extra" stuff, those other toms and cymbals. Since you've mentionned Neil Peart which...
Thirty-six hours later, a quick review and my feelings on the Zurich concert and this tour in general:
To start at the very beginning, when I saw the announcement of the tour and the fact that for such an important anniversary tour, they were only going to concentrate on half their discography...
Time for a little update since...I don't know how long in alphabetical order:
2 Minutes to midnight
Aces High
Afraid to shoot strangers
The aftermath
Alexander the great
The angel and the gambler
Another life
Blood brothers
Blood on the world's hands
Book of souls
Brave new world

Yes and no...it really depends how the kit is used. The more toms you have the more range you have so the fills are going to sound a bit different hitting different toms versus hitting the same tom (or just two or three instead of five or six). Maybe for some, it won't sound that different but...
I think it was the same guy that filmed Rush at the same venue on the same year (the angle of the camera being exactly the same and the way the camera moves, as well, is very similar...same goes for the quality in general, so 95% sure it was the same guy). Did he film other gigs? I can't tell...
The first camcorders appeared around 1983 and at that time, I presume they were expensive so not a lot of people did have one. Also they were quite big, so to sneak a camcorder into a venue was a challenge. As far as I'm aware there are two audience shot from the World Piece tour one done in...
Best Of The Beast - The double CD and the Vinyl version have a great list of songs, the cover art is awesome and both the book version of the CD's and the vinyl boxset are among the most beautiful things Maiden had ever released. And a new track, even if it was "just" an average song, still cool...
As long as they don't bring back Sanctuary and specially Drifter (one of their worst songs ever) I'm fine with whatever they play.
Of course, deep inside, in my wish list there are the following:
- Remember tomorrow (I know that in 2005 already, Bruce said they wouldn't playing it again and its...
