Yeah, we all know Bruce has some pretty questionable political stances and all, but I honestly don't think he was being xenophobic. I think he was just pissed off and dropped 'greek cunt' because the show was in Greece.
Maiden 2018 was peak. Goated drum sound, Bruce's best year since probably 2009, revigorated band. I still hope for a live release of that european tour, hopefully a video one, even if it's just the screen feed.
Rime wasn't played since 1987 when they did it in SBIT. Moonchild was in the same situation as ID (only played on its album tour). Prisoner and SSOASS also weren't played for a long time when ME happened. I agree they started getting a little bit more creative since Bruce's cancer on TBOS tour...
I mean, even LOTB was a little bit of that. Flight of Icarus hadn't been played for over 30 years, SOTC and Clansman were rarities, Where Eagles Dare and FTGGOG were total curve balls. For a "greatest hits" tour, it was quite diverse.
I really liked it, and as some people said, it's hard to go into details through all the albums in 2 hours so I quite enjoyed what they did with making it about the fans and our connection with Maiden and why they're so special to many people all over the world. It was nice showing them going to...
Maiden's tickets here in Brazil were R$1,200.00 for the "golden circle" pit, with R$ 261.00 fees. That's €246.56, and to people who earn in R$ (minimum wage being R$ 1,621.00). It's crazy expensive to go to concerts here. We do have something called 'meia-entrada,' where students, seniors...
This is amazing! Thank you so much for that, I do prefer this mix to the ones we got at RIR '13 and RAR '14. And yeah, I assume we have something like this for every show if not post-reunion, at least post-2008.
I don't think a tour in the Americas makes financial sense for Blaze nowadays. I think he’d draw good crowds here in SA, but the huge travel distances combined with weak exchange rates make it pretty much impossible to turn a profit.
I would think they have at least almost all post-reunion shows from the screens feed, like some were leaked in 2008 (Santiago, Monterrey and Porto Alegre).
