Definitely not among my faves too, but I think Wildest Dreams is FAR worse than Speed Of Light.

I think the Clansman rewrite is a lot better than the original Clansman.

Which one is the bloody Mork from Ork song?

You think it's that bad? The only lowpoint of the album for me is the Death Or Glory polka, just as I mentioned before.

Agreed. Directly followed by Brave New World, which is also significantly overrated. 'Weakest reunion albums' doesn't of course & necessarily mean 'bad', they're still good albums, but beyond Maidens potential. At least I can now somehow enjoy Senjutsu the one or other way, which wasn't...

I have to admit Senjutsu had been a grower for me and I can finally enjoy it in big parts nowadays, but still I like TBOS better. Seems somehow a more coherent album to me and it has more outstanding moments than Senjutsu does have. The only weak moment of the album for me is the Polka intro to...

Agreed about Paschendale. Live it was actually a chaotic disaster. Love the album version tho.

Are there any songs you'd consider 'problematic' when played live? Those ones that come to my mind immediately are Rainmaker and Stratego = definitely great each in their studio versions, but live Bruce was obviously struggling, and they came nowhere even near to the studio versions. Just a very...

Fuckin' awesome Rainbow '81 shirt! :edmetal: Got mail today from my trusted English men's outfitter... :) And that thingy for real looks even better than in the web store. :okok:

I haven't really followed the discussion, so could someone give me a short update? What exactly is supposed to be differently to 2025? Thank you

I think there will be one more album, and what now seems like hesitation from Maiden's side is in fact nothing but part of a profound preparation to do an OUTSTANDING last album. From Steve's point of view being so reserved as he is makes sense, since everything else would cause just more...

Anyway. The break in 2027 has its positive aspects since we all know the Maiden company won't rest. I am a 100% sure they will use the break from band activities itself for the one or other nice surprise to be released. Don't forget this autumn will mark the release of SIT & tour 40 years ago...

Where exactly do you spot examples for this?

I mean, they were beginning their career with a small show in England, so why not ending it with a small show in Japan. There's also this island vibe to it.

Maybe Yokohama will turn into a big show in Japan.

Man, I would love to see Maiden in such small venues again. Here in Europe it's usually about capacities of 30.000 to 50.000. I miss the times when it all was a bit smaller. I should go over to see them in the USA.

Btw, nothing wrong with none alcoholic beer... :) I enjoy Maiden shows so much more since I gave up drinking beer or any other alc half a decade ago. And First To The Barrier makes no sense with beer, because it would turn soon into some First To The Toilet or First To The Pee Tree or whatever...

To be honest, the only reasons I am extending my FC membership in the third or fourth year yet is: Since I'm collecting Tshirts from the official store the 10% discount does pay off, and also for the sake of FTTB. The forum and all the discussions are a complete waste of time, really. Completely...

I am also a member of the official FC, but what does somebodies FC membership have to do with tour announcements?

And that saves from any kind of sudden personal misfortune?
