I uploaded the images to my twitter / X account, I think you can check them from there:

a bruce solo interview, nice to see him promoting his own stuff on USA TV and while doing that he mentions a scorpions concert on the same night in the same area with him. i really liked this attitude.

Back then they played 6 out of 8 songs from Powerslave. One of them was Rime, which is basically the length of three songs anyway. But honestly, Flash of the Blade really stands out on that album — could’ve been a classic, instead it just ended up being more of a cult track. This goes for many...

I’ve also critized Maiden for barely touching deep cuts on some tours, especially this current one. But for a band like Maiden, with such a huge mainstream crowd, it makes total sense that at least 80% of the set is classics and hits. That just doesn’t leave much room for deep cuts. And...

Maiden clearly wanted to play Alexander for years and probably designed that hybrid Future Past concept to do that (one of the reasons) and suddenly Nicko wanted to play Alexander just before that tour... So that’s two seperate cases. I’m so glad Bruce played that tune. The background could be...

I think Bruce was involved in the business world too much during the 2000s. He tried to build his own aviation company and was like a CEO in his non-Maiden life. I think now he knows what he’s best at and what truly makes him happy… and he’s working at full speed to make up for the time he -kind...

yeah that drums... probably Eternity will be in the setlist. if so, there'll be sort of 2 maiden tracks each night. probably he'll rotate Revelations, Flash of the Blade (fingers crossed) and Bring your Daughter (he did mention this song in an interview before run for your lives and they didn't...

I did a poll on my twitter page. %55 voted Empire of the Clouds (which is of course a naive choice to say the least), %23.4 voted Flash of the Blade, %19.1 voted Sun and Steel and %2 voted Face in the Sand (I put it for -mostly- fun). I personally think he'll play Flash of the Blade. And...

They were Roy's friends. Chris Declercq, Gus G... I think what Bruce is saying here is that if he brings in someone like Adrian as a guest, it might overshadow the performances of the other band members — and he has a point. I guess that’s also part of the reason why Roy Z wanted to be the sole...

I became a fan with Seventh Son, but No Prayer was the first Maiden album I actually got to wait for. The anticipation was huge—first the release date itself, then the extra wait until it finally came out in my country. Before that, Bruce’s Tattooed Millionaire had dropped, full of AC/DC-style...

:D yet they played Losfer Words live before.

"he revealed that he is also preparing another Maiden song “which has never ever been played — ever.” i hope it's flash of the blade but somehow i think it's gonna be sun and steel...

Actually, I don’t wear Maiden t-shirts as much as I used to either, but one reason for that is I don’t really like most of the designs anymore. For example, there’s an Instagram account called “fantasy.tshirts” (https://www.instagram.com/fantasy.tshirts/) and his Maiden tshirt designs are just...

Postage fee sucks. We usually get together with friends from different countries and order to a country with a less postage fee. Then meet at a Maiden gig and get ours :)

I couldn’t find an active thread about merchandise. Is there a place here where we can rate and comment on the shirts? For example, out of the blue, they recently released Final Frontier merch. The shirt design feels fresh, but it also seems like a remix of some older designs. There is also a...
