News Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

[Prowler]

And how is this any easier than just switching backdrops?

Because it's just a file. You click on it and it opens. That simple.
It would take effort, if they didn't already have the image.

They don't need to take the extra backdrop with them

 

[ShadowOfTheGods]

Because it's just a file.

And files randomly appear on your drive?

They already had the file to print the backdrop in the first place... they also could just use the SIT cover, if they didn't already have an Alex backdrop.

I mean . . . cloud storage is a thing

So they basically have a different file with a static image and totally different settings/resolution/aspect ratio.

you describe it like it's high end physics or chemistry to edit an image.

Yeah, I wonder why there are editing/animation studios since it's that easy.

Here’s to another first night of the tour. There won’t be many more to come. I hope everyone attending has a great time.

For those at home, be sure to blast this later tonight.

 

[Sabawish]

Happy first day of tour all!

How are ticket days doing? There were some gloomy posts a month or so ago, hopefully things picked up a bit since?

Which are all absolutely trivial to change or edit by an artist or a studio.

Doctor Doctor over the PA before Maiden hit the stage, is that the most exciting 4 minutes you can have with your clothes still on

all it takes is a minor SW change. Much cheaper.

 

[Spaldy]

Should close this thread instead of having two going.

You originally asked why the changing of a screens graphic is easier than switching a backdrop…
I thought it was a pretty silly question, but others have nonetheless given you perfectly legitimate answers.
Maybe stop digging now?

 

[BQOBD]

Maybe they'll just make an exception for Greece and they play a 2nd encore. Have they ever done something like that?

I think the best example of this is all the way back in January 2001 when the band played two intimate shows at London’s Shepherds Bush.

The band added both The Fallen Angel AND Out Of the Silent Planet.

I think these two shows were the only time the band played OOTSP live.

Infinite Dreams: 100
AtG: 1

100? Why are people so convinced?

I hope it is played btw

 

[Trevoire]

Bruce mentioned it at the Burning Ambition premiere and the band posted a video with Eddie packing a infinite Dreams shirt. If it's not played I'll be shocked.

Guy on Maiden forum doesn't go see Maiden when they're in the same city, shit the bed, I've seen it all now

I would be devastated if I went in the same venue that 4 years earlier I witnessed the Greek cunt thing and they still didn’t play ATG.

After 40 years of being a fan, I know them well enough to predict with an almost certainty that they wouldn’t.
And as we all know by now, they didn’t.
