Yeah, they come off as too dramatic in that video, especially about missing Nicko and the AI screen stuff.
We'll see how many shows they go to for the US leg next year.
I feel very enthusiastic about this tour. Sure, Nicko is not there and there's no really true deep cuts on the setlist, but Murders, Killers, Phantom, Seventh Son, Rime, Clairvoyant and Powerslave are worth buying a ticket.
Simon is doing a great job. After four shows I think the way he plays the drum roll on Murders in the Rue Morgue is deliberate and not a mistake.
I think Steve and the the rest of the guys are letting him do his own thing there.
Here's mine:
The Ides Of March (tape)
1). Murders in the Rue Morgue
2). Wrathchild
3). Killers
4). Phantom Of The Opera
5). Sea of Madness
6). The Number Of The Beast
7). The Clairvoyant
8). Powerslave
9). Still Life
10. Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
11). Run To The Hills
12). Seventh Son of a...
From the main set I would switch 2 minutes with Still Life or Sea of Madness. From the encore I would replace Aces Low with To Tame a Land or Infinite Dreams and Wasted Years with Running Free.
Great main setlist, safe encore. Would've been the best ever if To Tame a Land(instead of Aces), Infinite Dreams(instead of 2 Minutes) and Sea of Madness were in there.
