Are there really people here who think it's possible that Steve would answer a question like that by saying, “Yes, I agree, let's start working on the album next year” (regardless of what was really discussed and decided internally)?

Isn't it true that, in the end, she was just a woman who pretended to be Bruce's daughter to draw attention to herself as a singer? That would also explain why he's able to ignore her so completely. It would make more sense to me. But I don't know.

I thought it was unfortunate that he went on stage with Pantera. Maybe he thinks Phil Anselmo made a mistake, apologized, and that’s the end of it. That’s a valid opinion. But in that case, Bruce (or Leana) should have posted something to that effect on social media. Otherwise, it’s unclear...

You need new, more honest friends. The show in Lyon is tomorrow.

I don't know. Won't it be really strange if the movie portrays it as this triumphant concert, when almost everyone knows that in reality something completely different happened? And I think including the power outage in the movie would paint a completely different picture than the story centered...

Yuck, you won't have me as a competitor there.

I think people would have reacted positively to Steve/the band making such an unexpected and unprecedented decision at such a late stage in their career

I agree that 2027 will be a year with activity from Maiden. But I don’t believe this is something that just came about recently. I think all of this was discussed and agreed upon a long time ago, including a plan to first announce zero activity in 2027 to boost ticket sales, and then gradually...

That doesn't mean the plans to go on tour with Maiden hadn't been in the works for a while, and that they honestly only started discussing them during rehearsals, just because it was then decided to make the first tentative public hints. We mustn’t confuse what’s officially presented to us with...

Why is that strange? The new Maiden album will be recorded early next year, followed by (a limited number of) Maiden live shows in the summer, and then Bruce's tour at the end of the year.

I like Simon and the way they sound this year, but I would have found it completely sensational if Maiden had completely surprised the world with something like this Anika Nilles move.

Too bad some people bought tickets because they thought it might be Maiden's final tour or their last tour for a long time. :D

Steve with his beach outfit... :bigsmile:

I agree that it was very brave. You can like and recommend someone, but it might still turn out that your friend doesn't get along with that person, esspecially on tour. And Maiden played it safe. Someone Steve has known and toured with for a long time.

No, “a couple of years” doesn't mean 2028. It means two or more years. The wording doesn't make sense if you're specifically thinking of your plans for 2028. Right! 2028 (or perhaps even sooner?) in some cities, maybe in a couple of years at Rock am Ring again.

Maybe that is why he is not fit and tired? ;)

I think we need to stop taking Bruce's comments so literally. Didn't he just recently say that we'll see them again very soon?

Maybe he felt the need to apologize for his father's behavior. He was seriously cringey.

I’ve watched a lot of videos from Hanover, and I don’t think that’s fair. Bruce and Adrian, in particular, seem very fired up. Adrian is even running around more than he did when he was younger!! And as for the others, I think it’s more of a projection than anything else. There isn’t really any...
