Children of the Damned

Also, the left has had fundamental structural problems with police for ages at this point. ACAB and all that. Regardless of country, it doesn't matter if it's the UK, the US, Germany or the Netherlands (where the other day an asshole cop slammed an innocent pregnant woman to the ground, which...

When I saw them last year they were absolutely on fire. Especially Dave, who seemed to be having the time of his life. Haven't seen them this year, but from videos that I've seen they still seem to be having a blast. I think going with certain expectations into the concert, as well as things...

Hakuna your tatas, mate. The police was incompetent and fucked up, badly. The murderer is sentenced. I'm not religious, so I think there should be no exceptions to weapon bans. If other citizens aren't allowed to walk around with daggers, neither should religious folks. What more is there to...

Not only that, many of the games in the 80s and 90s were developed with guides in mind. That's why some games had insanely cryptic optional content, like getting the Excalibur II in FFIX, which requires reaching the final dungeon within 12 hours on the in-game timer.

I think I've only listened to Nights Of The Dead twice in its entirety so far. I've listened to a couple of parts here and there, but overall it's an astonishingly bad live album. Bruce sounds absolutely awful. At times (Aces High being an obvious example) you can barely make out what the hell...

For me, the perfect placement for Senjutsu would've been in the middle. A bit like Paschendale was on Death On The Road. By that point you've had a bunch of shorter rockers, singles, a few classics and even a couple of longer songs (the two title tracks of DOD and BNW). You've pushed the energy...

I enjoyed it as well, though it's one of those songs that could've been a bit shorter. Opening with a slow and plodding 8+ minute stomper is pretty unusual for Maiden.

My least favorite was when they opened with TNOTB in 2003. Super weird choice.

Right at that moment you can see Eddie tilt his head a bit to the side. I don't think it was in response to Bruce's mistake, but it looked super funny. Top comedic timing!

When they announced this leg of the tour they also announced that the Paris gig will be recorded and released as a live album.

Twilight Zone

Depends on the show, I suppose. When I saw them live last year, Simon was fantastic all around. He has a different style than Nicko, which is not a bad thing.

Cool shirt. Many of the RFYL event shirts have Eddie in very similar looking poses though, which is a bit of a shame. It's a really cool design, but this one for example just looks like a slight edit of one of the other shirts, this time with a casket added instead of the previous background.

A former co-worker memorized the first 50 digits to win a bet.

Turbulence in troubled skies seas, the Rime of the Ancient Mariner

As far as I know, no. I think either during the Book of Souls tour or at the latest during the first Legacy of the Beast tour he started using a visual metronome for the intros of the songs. That's why Fear of the Dark has become so relatively slow over the years. IIRC it's only to get the...

Oooooh, lists! My top 10 8+ minute songs: 1. Don't Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger 2. Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son 3. Dance Of Death 4. Hell On Earth 5. The Legacy 6. Dream Of Mirrors 7. The Book Of Souls 8. The Clansman 9. The Red And The Black 10. For The Greater Good Of God Ask me tomorrow...

It's definitely not Simon's fault. This is clearly Bruce's problem, since he had the same exact issues in 2022, 2023 and 2024 when Nicko was still with the band.

I'll never understand how Bruce can sing for one of the biggest bands in the world, yet he can't sort out his timing issues. This has been consistently going on for years at this point.
