For me, it is the verse that kills it

The title track might be my favourite every maiden song Top The book of souls If eternity should fail Red and the black Empire Mid the others Skip When the river runs deep Man of sorrows

Somewhere in Time, although 7th Son has been my record of choice in recent times

before you go bald, you gotta Dye With Your Roots on

The place was absolutely packed, I think the singer of Airbourne said 50k people? The band sounded great, the highlights were Infinite Dreams, Rime, 7th Son and Phantom for me. The sound was a little patchy but that is a big field gig for you I thought Rime sounded great in the lower...

I caved… now en route to Knebworth

I had been waiting for the last minute to get tickets incase they dropped the price but doesn’t look like that’ll happen now The support bands are woeful, i’d have much rather seen the Friday bands as the support or of course some of the other support bands from the tour e.g. Megadeth But...

Maybe it isn’t a “kick” but since London last year, I have mostly listened to 7th Son from their catalogue. I am on another binge of it on the lead up to Knebworth (although I still haven’t got a ticket) It may have finally toppled SIT as my favourite 80s album

TXF for me, the album saw me through a dark time. It’s one of my favourite maiden albums Despite its flaws, it has a pretty unique vibe - if only it had better production :(

That’s right, there was no Nicko appearance

Woke up still buzzing from the concert. The band were in fine form and they definitely have a few years left in the tank A couple of flubs and technical issues but even Aces High sounded alright being swept up in the moment - I wore my NPFTD T Shirt in protest ;) Highlights were Powerslave and...

I thought there was a point made about it being for this tour or year, didn’t realise he was a permanent live drummer
