Stratton was technically both right and wrong timing at Maiden. Right in the sense that guitar talent is irrelevant, more than capable for the job, but wrong in a way cos they had a real rush of hiring a 2nd guitarist to record the first album, they didn't know him personally, and turns out...

I, on the other hand, heard on other Maiden forum that Bruce had said in one of the shows: "See you in a couple of years". 664 out of 666 Maiden-fans: "B-b-but what about retirement??!"

Something I've intended to write for a while and seems to be appropriate moment: Bruce could've teased Holy Smoke during his first solo tour during the intro of No Lies: Holy Smoke, Holy Smoke, plenty bad preachers for the devil to stoke, feed em at feet first this is no joke, this is...

If each band member was promised 500k pounds sterling for playing one NPFTD song for one last time, here are the reactions (individually), the order being the higher the more accepting: Dawson: Big money for me and I've no problem with it, I say we go for it Gers: I've got good memories from...

Maybe because two thirds of the setlist is played to death. Iron Maiden + two "mandatory" songs would be as close as possible to perfection.

You drink the last Trooper beer of the evening and the spirit of Eddie evaporates from out the bottle. He grants your wish for Maiden's next live tour (presumably 2028), but you can only pick one option out of four. Which one you choose? Maiden will play... a) Infinite Dreams b) Two 80s songs...

If they really want to keep it fresh, how about the 90s tou- Be Quick & Afraid To Shoot Stra- Playing one effing tune from NPFTD :D yeah I know aint gonna happen

Have changed... or was it the plan all along? (The Simpsons: "Broke it... or made it better?")

To be exact I'm under the impression Killers was recorded in November-December 1980, so: 80.

This takes me right back to Bruce's biography, recording of Piece of Mind, its like six or seven in the morning, Nick's drum tech sitting in a fountain holding a brick saying "Kill me now!", and Nicko responding: "P*ss off, w*nker".

I am a man who walks alone Cos I was dumbed by the road In a heaty night in the summer of '96 When the light begins to change It reminds me of my affair With Bruce during the summer of '96

Great news! And yes, Steve likely to join the stage for a song or two I'd imagine as well, like in this picture in London (22.12.2000).

A bit offtopic / general pondering, but hopefully now that return to the life as an active solo artist after over two decades is completed, I hope Bruce has More Balls To... take risks setlist wise. For starters, 2-3 Skunkworks tunes is a must and for Hesus sake, play something from TM and...

What should I lie... hmm... allright, keeping it quite brief: Senjutsu is better. Took a little while to get used to the whole entirety, even though I liked 'Stratego' straight away, but by 2022 it got my seal of approval. Vice versa for TBOS, at first I was really pleased but over time it went...

I spent ages (ages is a fortnight now btw) searching for a comment from this forum but finally realised it was in YouTube (Chile 01 the tres amigos about cameras attached to their guitars), so modified version: Tres amigos when asked about one more studio album: Dave: politely explains why he...

Agreed. I wouldn't put past it if they have filmed a gig on official live album purpose from every tour since at least from 2003 (in that case, Gimme Ed Tour).

Dennis Stratton is one of 3 people alive who can say "I have played on the debut album of Iron Maiden". He must be immensely proud of that, and rightfully so.

Merging the two separate tours from 2003 into one. Give Me Ed... Till I Dance With The Dead? Anyway, from May 2003 to Feb 2004: 1. Wildest Dreams 2. Rainmaker 3. Die With Your Boots On 4. Lord of the Flies 5. Revelations 6. Dance of Death 7. Montsegur 8. 22 Acacia Avenue 9. Brave New World 10...
