    The Official Book of Souls Tour 2017 Thread (Warning: Spoilers Within)

    So, the US tour'll end basically in August. The rumor about Maiden playing at Rock in Rio is stronger every week, and Rock in Rio'll be in late September. They'll probably do 3 more shows at South America (São Paulo, Santiago and Buenos Aires), perhaps 4,. A couple in Mexico, a quick tour in...

    I don't know if Lolla follows the same headliners through out the world, but either here and in Lolla Chile, Metallica'll be the metal headliner. Again, I don't know how this works in the US

    2017 Tour Announcement on Friday!

    I didn't lose my faith just yet. They haven't announced any US cities and it's obvious they'll play in North America. So, there are more cities for them to announce (probably in January) and there's the small, tiny, little chance they'll go down to a couple of shows in Latin America

    The Concert Thread

    Tornado of Souls was the biggest surprise I had. If anyone doubted Kiko as a Megadeth giutarrist, Tornado made them shut up. They choose a random venue here as well (last year, only Robert Plant played there, as rock bands), the sound was bad on Mustaine rants all the way from the end of the...

    Metallica

    Really old school this new song. I bet they'll follow the DM lead and continue to play this old-school-straight-metal. It'll not be great, but I doubt Metallica's even trying to do something great. It'll be "good enough" to allow people to forget DM (except The Day That Never Comes. That song is...

    Why don't Maiden delve deeper into their back catalogue?

    I think Maiden dives enough on his catalogue. I posted this on TBoS tour thread, but, considering the majority of the titan Metal and Rock bands, Maiden is one of the few that actually rotates their set, plays new stuff and bring back old classics from time to time. About the history tours...

    I notice on setlist.fm they're playing a shorter set on regular days and including Mechanix/Rattlehead on weekend concerts. So, it's likely they'll play one of those two there, like they did in São Paulo

    Wrong. The Red and the Black is better than Shadows of the Valley or The Great Unknown. In fact, it's one of my favorite post-reunion Maiden songs already. The instrumental part, specially, is superb. I don't get this, eveyone here loves prog Maiden, this is one of the best prog Maiden songs...

    Went to Megadeth concert yesterday. Megadeth by the numbers, but a decent mix between the (very) good Dystopia and classics. Poisonous Shadows were a high point, and it was the best execution of Sweating Bullets I saw. I recommend if they're in your town

    The Official Book of Souls Tour 2016 Thread (Warning: Spoilers within!)

    It all depends on what's your base of comparison. Personally, i don't have complains at all about Maiden's setlist choices. When I see how safe Metallica plays with their set choices, Maiden is a true daredevil on every single tour. But I can see a pattern on Maiden's albums tours. Let's take...

    Steve's choices pattern don't allow me to be imaginative :D I think they'll try to remember the 90s on this 2nd leg as well, but i can't see Be Quick here (it'll be odd in the middle of the set, Bruce can't sing it on the encore opener and IESF is locked as opener). Bring Your Daughter is...

    The Official Book of Souls Tour 2016 Thread (Warning: Spoilers within!)

    It's way unrealistic to expect Empire in the 2nd leg, and more unrealistic to expect an orchestra to follow the band. If, and only if, they indeed played Empre (which would be on the encore, as The encore), i'm betting 10$ they would tape the "not-a-eletric-guitar-bass-or-a-drum" instruments and...

    It was a good bet, considering Bruce's comeback from cancer, and Bruce himself said in an interview he sang HCW and Trooper during his treatment I'm cool even if they play TAATG, but,honestly? TOAC is a hell of a beautiful song. Adrian's solo is one piece of heaven and the lyrics are really...

    Late February/Early April - US/Canada Early May/Mid August - Europe/Asia (they haven't played in Korea or India, for an example) Late August/Late September - South America I'm forcing the issue here, but it isn't surreal to see they taking longer breaks between shows and closing here in late...

    Things about Iron Maiden that annoy you

    Yes, i can't disagree with that. In the 80s, all the metal bands had a lot more productivity. I didn't made myself clear, i'm afraid. You still see bands releasing new albums a couple of years. Good bands, like Mastodon, Machine Head, Opeth. But those are bands that still have to "prove"...

    I'm really optimistic about Maiden playing in South America next year. In 2011 Maiden had just finished the TFF Tour and haven't played in Rock in Rio because they made a whole South America tour earlier in the same year. In 2013, Medina made 3 Heavy Metal dates, and Maidne playe din one of...

    Things about Iron Maiden that annoy you

    First of all: Climb like a monkey is funny. Bruce's ape mask is funny. Stop being so serious, it's just heavy metal :D Second, i read something about Maiden not releasing new material with frequence. Well, Maiden is a rock titan, one of those bands whom guarantee at least 15000 people whatever...
