But the problem with these comments is that many pleased fans don't comment. You don't get a representative impression.
If just a few people from this forum left comments, the whole thing would suddenly look completely different.
Really? I don't remember it that way. Yes, there were also negative reviews, but most of the ones I read were very positive and even spoke of a return to top form.
It doesn't seem right to me that the band sees it like that either. They played so many songs from the album and even played “Hell...
I've never thought about this possible background of playing errors before:

Even after 36 years, Barry Graham Purkis aka Thunderstick still remembers a gig as Iron Maiden drummer:
“I was having an extramarital affair at the time. At the...

That would have sold just as well.
The more I think about it, the more I believe we can stop discussing whether this is their last tour.
A band celebrating their career by only mentioning the first half of it with the message “please ignore the rest” - that would be absurd.
Even bands where most people agree that they haven't...

I don't think anyone would notice.
I have received an email from “Emilia Fuchs” from myticket:
“50 years of Iron Maiden: The greatest show of all time”. :yey:
No wonder people want to see that.
That is indeed odd. I would love to know how this decision was made.
I've also noticed this, not only with older fans and also in small venues: many people nowadays behave as if they were sitting in a coffee house or a pub: having a drink with friends and chatting.
