Shouldn't we have a separate thread for Eddfest? I want reports on everything! Pictures of the exhibition, Blaze review, pictures of the campsite, review of the portaloo facilities, the other bands, weather, what's going on in the bushes when its dark, beer prices, merch stand, drunk people...

I've always regarded a Maiden gig as a football game where everbody wins. The crowd, the chants, the anticipation... There are many similarities there. Showing the actual game at a festival is another gamble. If England loses to Norway, everbody will be bummed out to their core and could ruin...

Apart from hearing about the performances, it's going to be interesting to get reports on the festival infrastructure, especially when it's hot like this. Things like water, shading, sanitation, waste, security, medic facilities etc are all factors that cannot be overstated. Sonisphere is the...

Yes indeed! It was a powerful execution and great atmosphere! First time on Tons of Rock for me but I will be returning. Gotta figure out the map of Oslo first.

The more I think about it, the Paris disaster could be a blessing in disguise. With the right vision, this could be Burning Ambition Part 2. Part 1 had the band talking about the history, ups and downs and fans sitting inside behind a table giving their insights. Now it's time to meet the band...

Patch it up with Eddfest and the rest of the tour. Go behind the scenes of what makes a tour at this scale. It could (and perhaps should!) be a different take than "just" a regular concert anyway. This being a celebration of a band that just turned 50.

LOTB was by far the most spectacular stage design they've ever had and the tour is loved by many. But I also think the theatrics got in the way of stage presence and in my opinion, Bruce got detached from the audience in a way that was unrecognizable to me. He had too much going on and the whole...

Not sold on the mid section?! This whole year since last June has been about me finding a way to see and experience that exact moment one more time. They should have extended that part on the album if you ask me. Absolutely brilliant stuff!

Quite a few people in here seem to have forgotten that this tour is still called Run for Your Lives. The hype for changes and ultimately disappointment is your own creation. The one and only change was written on the wall.

I have had some kind of relationship with Anthrax since the early 90's but I've always thought they've not really earned their position. At least not in 2026. It's the perfect festival band and I rather have them as warm up than some of the usual suspects but their catalog is not really that...

It was already a better setlist imo

Did Eddie consent to that second picture? It's quite... intimate.

Maybe you get a time slot when you enter and then there's a few open slots in between. I imagine there's a tent and a path to follow with displays. Maybe a 10 minute walk through tops.

I don't know what the hell everybody is going on about?! Are you all perverts? The lyrics are obviously about the void of human isolation. The city is full of life ("ladies flashing"), but the narrator is completely disconnected, crawling in the shadows. "It" represents the massive, empty void...

I'm reading this as someone with English as a second language, but the linguistic nuance you are after is that he didn't say "... when we start in Athens" but "as we start in Athens", meaning the fact that we start in Athens, you should keep and eye on the setlist. Correct?

Swapping Aces for Alex and keep it as the first encore is perfect spot in the setlist IMO but I think it's over analyzing what's been said too far into Father Christmas territory to be honest. Clairvoyant for Infinite is more probable. In any event, the setlist as we know it is one of the better...

Just came back from the theater and I enjoyed it more than expected. It's a bit of nitpicking , but I also think calling this a documentary is a bit of a stretch. It's most of all a band portrait but if you want to find something in there that could be called documental, it's the (cliché) that...

She was following Ghost on tour and did the Ghoulbangers Ball clips for every show. As a matter of fact, and I say this with a huge amount of pride (maybe not in the @Helmuth Von Moltke kind of level) - Vanessa INTERVIEWED MEEE at the stop in Sweden! So this should be known to everybody -...

This is probably the right answer. But still, Steve gave a very different story about the bands involvement in the production when he spoke on Trunk Nation than what Bruce said in a recent interview. Steve: We didn't have that control that we would normally have if we were doing it ourselves...
