Confeos to me is like a hornier version of Rain on the Graves. I dig it.

Ah, the ultimate panic button when you need a distraction. Ex-Prince Andrew's in custody and might start squealing who else he saw at the island and what they were doing, so...ALIENS!!!!!!! :yes:

Happy to help!

So, I've finally gotten through most of the Shooman book. It's divided into a few segments--the main story of Maiden, then going through the albums, and then the band members. I'm up to the band members part. Having read several biographies of the band, official and unofficial, it's hard to...

It follows the predictions of a dude I follow on Instagram who posts about the progression of Trump's suspected dementia. As his frontal lobe continues to atrophy and disintegrate, the inhibition "governors" (for lack of a better word) disappear as well. This would be why he's been getting more...

Also telling is the handlers in a near-panic rushing all the press out of the room before they smell it. If someone in the press corps asks about it, I imagine Karoline Leavitt's answer will be that Biden shit Trump's pants.

Great info. Thank you!

Is there a complete (soundboard) recording of that Bulgaria show out there? All I've found of that quality is the one on YouTube that has only the last 40 minutes of the show.

To change the subject briefly to Di'Anno in his prime, Knucklebonz has a new statue of him coming out for those interested. I've gotten their previous three Eddie statues, so a bit bummed that's not continued in favor of this, but a cool tribute nevertheless considering his passing...

On one hand, he seems genuinely honest when saying it's stressful and he doesn't feel up to it. Let's face it, age could be factoring in in a way we haven't seen before when it comes to songwriting and recording. So it could be true that he's dragging his feet on it, further evidenced by Bruce...

I could only guess one of those that are staples of nearly every tour: Trooper Fear of the Dark NotB Maybe even Iron Maiden Nobody's said anything about being tired of any of these that I've read, but it's gotta get dull at times to play a song for the 8,000th time, no matter how great of...

Maiden's No Prayer-less Run For Your Lives Tour has entered the chat. Kidding aside, while I'd love him to do ATSS and others, I'm leaning toward BotB's mention is specifically for Virus.

Blaze, at least, would be smart enough to have his band drop the key to fit his range. He's done several Bruce songs post-Maiden properly adjusted to his voice--Wasted Years and Trooper, for example--and they sound great. Bruce is too proud.

I could see him doing it through the tour as a prolonged tribute to Di'Anno, since that's the song he chose to play after his passing..

I'd say all that's pretty realistic. I know it matters to him what critics and fans say about things (like Skunkworks), but the more critical thing I think was how well the albums sold, and none of them sold enough to give him a long, financially solvent career. Like Blaze, he blew through a lot...

I haven't quite started it yet--had to wrap up the Infinite Dreams book, get other random stuff done this week/weekend, and should be starting Shooman's next week. Of the several new books that have come out to coincide with the 50th, Joe's is the one I was most interested in because like you, I...

I imagine the legal controversy is the nail in the coffin of ever seeing this one played live. That, and it's not really talked about much anymore--even in the BNW promotional cycle, I don't remember Steve or Bruce mentioning wanting to play that one live. Though I'd love to see Infinite Dreams...

I wouldn't say it's half-assed. It's good, well-made and compiled, but not brilliant. I say that because it wasn't made for those like me who have all the old out-of-print books like What Are We Doing This For?, but for your average Maiden fan...with $60 to burn. Because of that, yeah, we've...

I remember seeing a sales chart somewhere that showed a small dip in sales from Accident of Birth to The Chemical Wedding. Bruce said something back then to corroborate that: generally that AoB and Chemical sold about the same, and that he put out the best album of his career and it didn't make...

The Parchment Paschendale Fortunes of War Senjutsu Man of Sorrows I know it's supposed to be semi-emotional, but opting to make it a plodding mid-tempo rocker baffles me to this day. Would've been much improved as an acoustic track. But yeah, as is the song does nothing for me, so I'd rank it...
