    The Future Past tour 2023

    What is it with these survivor posts popping up in threads. Polls are stupid if you ask me. But for those who like them keep them to their own threads and stop begging for votes in other threads.

    Iron Maiden albums that your opinion has shifted on

    I would say the final frontier for me is the album I’ve changed my mind on the most over the years. On release I hated the cover artwork (still think it’s bad but can live with it more these days). I also felt this was where the band started doing longer songs just for the sake of it as there’s...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Regarding support bands I’ve seen some brilliant bands. Megadeth in 1999, Halloween in 1998, My Dying Bride in 1995. Saw Dream theatre support on the early days tour in Paris. Didn’t avenged sevenfold support at Twickenham 2008? The best thought has to be metal 2000 at Earl’s Court. Slayer and...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Ok serious thoughts about Maidens future. This is a mixture of my predictions but a slight hopeful bit of wishful thinking. 1. New live album and video footage, released this year in autumn around October. I always thought that they would release a video of this tour but expected a streaming...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    So there’s something special being announced next year, Hmmmm…… Maybe they’re going to re release the special fan club box set of Senjutsu and they’ve finally found a manufacturer who can make boxes that don’t fuck up on the corners due to a little bit of pressure from a flimsy cardboard insert...

    This 100%. It’s ok to have wants and expectations, we are paying customers after all and want bang for buck. It’s when people get all bat shit crazy slagging the band off if they don’t get their own way is what I define as entitlement.

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Lol, you are joking right? It’s not up to Maiden to be responsible for the spending habits of random fans. If someone has a problem spending too much money then what, Maiden should not sell something that 95% of their fan base not only want but can limit their spending to what they can afford...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    My take on Bruce’s comments: I’m guessing Maiden have a new album planned for release in 2025. I may be mistaken but isn’t 2025 the 50th anniversary of the band being formed? If true that would be a great way to celebrate.I also think, if true, this will be the last studio album ever; followed...

    That’s actually more likely than a dvd/Bly ray release.

    The Future Past tour 2023

    As I’ve said before, it’s not Maidebs fault that the weather stopped fans being able to attend. It’s also not the bands fault that the organisers chose to let some people in and not others. Maiden were contracted to play and that’s what they did. It’s up to Wacken to find assay to compensate...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    But the band never promised anything, it was a mistake to list the live stream by the people in charge of the live streaming, Magenta. I think it’s wholly unfair that the band are taking all the stick for this. Plus, there was actually a stream in the end just not the one that a large amount...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Why? It’s not the bands fault that fans were turned away. If Maiden are planing to release a live album and maybe video and it was never intended to be streamed why should they change there plans? Streaming the set would give millions of fans around the world access to the stream and not just...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Just been reading the comments on Facebook regarding the wacken set not being streamed. Can’t believe how many self entitled whiny fuckwits have been moaning. I thought there might have been a few Moaners amongst wacken ticket holders who couldn’t make the show due to the weather and that I...

    Moments you thought Maiden were ridiculous and embarrassing

    Maidens cringiest moment for me is the way Bruce introduces blood brothers. I actively dislike that song now because of how cringy it seems now, when it’s introduced and the way the crowd sing along. “We are all blood brothers in metal” yuk,

    Maiden's Biggest Missed Opportunities Live

    To me the biggest missed opportunity has then the history tours. Don’t get me wrong I loved LotB but back when they released the early years part 1 dvd and then toured to support it I was over the moon that the entire set would only include songs from the first 4 albums. I thought they were...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    As Yax said above, maybe the band don’t want it streamed as they are planning on recording it and releasing it themselves. Hope so.

    TFP-tour (almost) over - time for a summary about the tour & Maiden in 2023 (*spoiler anyway*)

    Bar a few mistakes in the early shows on this tour I think the performances have been fantastic all round. It would be insanely criminal if we don’t let a proper live video recording from the band from this tour. Of course I’m expecting a live album but video concert footage surely must be...

    Damn I’m out tonight! Would have loved to spend the evening watching the Maiden wacken stream. What are the chances it’ll be up on YouTube tomorrow?
