Wasn't The Talisman moved earlier in the set due to it's difficulty after the Moscow show? After that Bruce started nailing it.

Yeah, it was horrendous at the first few shows, where it was right before Fear and then moved up one song to be before TETMD. He was apparently sick too for a while on that leg, but for once recovered in time for En Vivo so we (thankfully) got some absolutely stunning professionally mixed performances from that tour.
 
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Wrathchild
Killers
Phantom of the Opera
The Number of the Beast
Infinite Dreams
Powerslave
2 Minutes to Midnight
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Run to the Hills
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
The Trooper
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Iron Maiden
Aces High
Fear of the Dark
Wasted Years

Thanks to replacing The Clairvoyant with Infinite Dreams, the Paris live album (assuming the setlist stays the same, no reason not to) will feature 5 songs that have not been on live albums with the reunion line-up. Well, with Simon instead of Nicko now. Considering that this is a best of best-ofs tour and all the whining last year, that's almost as good a statistic as En Vivo, which had the 5 TFF songs plus Running Free, which hadn't been released officially by the reunion line-up at that point. Pretty neat actually.

+ Rotam wasn't on a live album since 2009 flight 666, that's 17 years

Funny you bring up En Vivo, since I seem to recall one of main complaints about that tour's setlist and thus also the live album's was that it was incredibly uninspired since it was very similar to Rock in Rio besides the new songs and Dance of Death and Running Free (and with the interesting Blaze era songs cut). DotR and Flight 666 were both massively different setlist wise from RiR so I tend to agree the En Vivo set is quite bland even if the performances are stellar. On that basis, calling RFYL "almost as good" as En Vivo is quite telling.
 

Well, also on the new live album, there will be this...

Edit: FFS, it seems they went nuclear with copyright this year.

Eh, while I agree that En Vivo was disappointing in its choice of songs, I think 5 songs that have not been released on a live album in over 25 years is a very good statistic for a best of the best-ofs tour.

It’s crazy to think there hasn’t been an official live recording of Phantom since the World Slavery Tour.

And I hate to be pedantic, but there are reunion era versions of Killers and MITRM. They are just not on live albums. But you probably know that :)

Adrian has a new lado? Any good pics of it?

Yup. Charcoal burst, black hardware, 22 frets and the switch moved to the lower horn (one of his main complaints about the old Lados). Used on everything in standard tuning tonight.

Also thinking about it, H not using Jacksons... Could it be that H has left Jackson due to the FMIC lawsuit debacle in the last weeks?

Also En Vivo stage wasn't that impressive as well as the show itself. This one is on level with LOTB and songs by themselves are better on it.

:D

There are some real gems released as B-sides (people should check out the NPFTD songs, some of the Blaze ones and the Ed Huntour ones), most folks have probably not listened to any of those. That's why I said live albums, which admittedly is a bit of cherry picking to make this seem better than it might be otherwise in the eyes of some.
