Please NO. I never thought I would say that, but Aces High as the opener would be a big disappointment.

I'm also Brazilian and I have the same perception as you about Maiden's shows here. Tour after tour the audience seems to be getting more and more inactive and less interested, which is frustrating. But, yes, your observation is as sad as it is true. We're all getting too old... But, in our...

Don't you think the normal chronological order makes more sense than a reverse one? Imagine that the first songs can be something like Prowler, Murders, Running Free, Phantom Of The Opera, Wrathchild and Killers (leaving just Iron Maiden out of order, 'cos we know it will close the main set) and...

Thinking about the setlist and the stage set, the chronological sequence could match Eddie's evolution on the album covers from the debut to FOTD, being something really innovative, like a different Eddie prop in the background (or some walking Eddies or even animations in the screens) for every...

Man, just imagine this sequence: Infinite Dreams, Rime, Powerslave, Seventh Son and Phantom Of The Opera. Holy fuck!

This is a great bet, but I don't believe they will play both Die With Your Boots On and Still Life. And I still think they will play Stranger and Bring Your Daughter, to have at least one song from each of the 9 first albums, as was said in the tour announcement.

The repetitive chorus is the weakest part of all the entire album, imo. Just because of it, it's a 7/10 for me. Even so, it's a very good track, with great melodies, beautiful guitar solos and bass lines, in addition of interesting lyrics.

My feelings are quite the same. The setlist is always the most important part of a new tour, and of course I expect them to play at least 2 deep cuts (Infinite Dreams, Killers, Only the Good Die Young, Be Quick or Be Dead, Prowler or Murders in The Rue Morgue: anything from these ones would be...

I went to 9 shows: Somewhere Back in Time (2008) Final Frontier World Tour (2011) Maiden England (2013) Book of Souls World Tour (2016) LOTB (2019) LOTB (2019) LOTB 2 (2022) LOTB 2 (2022) Future Past (2024) And here is a curious funny thing: I've never seen them playing Wrathchild!

I think Killers is the most likely deep cut, given the tour poster. Infinite Dreams, Sun and Steel, Die With Your Boots On and Be Quick Or Be Dead (only as the opener, imo) are all possible too (not together). Only The Good Die Young and To Tame a Land, imo, are wishful thinking, but who knows...

No Infinite Dreams or Killers?! C'mon, Gemini, you can do it better!

It's just a matter of taste. The chorus and the general tempo of the song don't appeal to me. And the way the drum beats accompany the vocals is also a bit odd. Considering the exceptional level of all the other songs on the album (except Invaders, which is great, but not a masterpiece), I think...

Gangland is, in my opinion, one of the worst Maiden tracks ever. I really hope they don't even consider to play it.

And the Future Past Tour Poster was in that art that was released the other day. It would be odd and kind out of date, but who knows.

I think the wall at the right side of the poster, with the light perpassing some kind of window/hole, can be a reference to 2 Minutes single cover.

That would be the best scenario, but the tour poster seems to have clear references to Aces High and 2 Minutes.

Oh, man, now ANY other song picked to be the opener will be underwhelming. I'm with you, hoping our Infinite Dreams will finally come true...

It's a shame they still keep on focusing on their solo projects and albums when they clearly could record a new Maiden album, but it seems that they just don't want to do it now. Probably they all (or even just Bruce and Adrian) know that a new Maiden record is a much more demanding project...

Rock in Rio, definitely.

What a shame they didn't insist on playing this masterpiece on that tour...
