Many people are saying, terrific people are saying it, that Iron Maiden treated Blaze Bayley so badly. They threw him out like a dog, and it was so unfair, what they did to him. They tell me "sir, you've got to do something about Blaze Bayley", and we're going to help him out, he's a friend of...

He's just doing what Blackmore criticized Satriani of not doing: "Searching for notes". :D

That's a solid interpretation.

Not to mention his performance in the Red Alert game.

He almost did that two years ago. Played seven out of 8 Virtual XI songs, 5 X Factor songs and a Blaze Bayley tune. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/blaze-bayley/2024/rockland-sala-gruva-sweden-53abffdd.html It was a great gig.
