I've been wondering about this for a while: I have the impression that the band's live output changed dramatically from The Book of Souls World Tour onwards. Flight 666 and En Vivo are the pinnacles of their live production. Suddenly, the band sounds totally different since The Book of Souls -...

I think "Parchment" has a great transition in the build up to the "meet me there" part, which would be nice to hear live. I've always envisioned this part with pyros/fireworks like in ROTAM after the breakdown. However, all the remaining parts aren't melodic and the song lacks enthusiasm overall.

I'm too lazy to read the whole thread. Have the rehearsals started yet?

The problem with waiting is that I follow too many Maiden content on Instagram. I'd have to stop following all of them before the first tour date.

I would love to hear Dance of Death again, especially because I've never seen it live. It's one of their best live songs ever. But given that they already have two very solid live versions of it (DOTR and En Vivo), I doubt its return to the setlist.

Back in the Village Gangland Drifter

It would be embarrassing if, at this point, they don't play it.

I think they should play The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner and at some point, a giant Eliud Kipchoge comes onto the stage and starts dancing with Jancik Gers.

1. DOFP 2. Sea of Madness 3. TWOTW 4. 2 Minutes to Midnight 5. The Time Machine 6. Stranger in a Strange Land 7. The Trooper 8. Heaven Can Wait 9. FOTD 10. The Parchment 11. Hallowed Be Thy Name 12. Iron Maiden ------------------ 13. Alexander the Great 14. Hell on Earth 15. Wasted Years

Curious to see which solos from SIT Steve will hand Janick so he can ruin it. Lol

finally get to play some of the more epic tracks on Senjutsu So they'll play at least one among LIALW, Parchment, and DOTC. Interesting.

The 5+5+5 setlist seems reasonable, but I would exchange two classics for one long Senjutsu song LOL

Honestly, they play FOTD, Trooper and TNOTB to please the fans that don't listen to their reunion-era songs. For this purpose, SIASL, ATG and WY perfectly replace those. So there's a chance we finally see them playing only Iron Maiden + one overplayed classic.

Do you think LOTB will have another release apart from Nights of the Dead? I think this tour deserves something way better. I like the Flight 666 and TBOS-LC formats, with audio and footage from different cities. If they do so, I hope they join all the legs and don't let any song behind like...

I think the youtube banners for each Senjutsu song serve very well as backdrops. So the Senjutsu stage is kind of ready.

The transition to the cathedral during the LOTB 19 was faster, and they could hide it very well with the lights turned off. This time, at RiR it felt almost embarrassing because they didn't have control over the lights of the whole festival, so you could literally see each staff member doing...

Why does it happen only in one song? In Sao Paulo, I've noticed it only in RTTH, but it wasn't so out of sync as in this clip.

I've been to both RiR, and São Paulo shows. For the first time, I attended twice in the same tour, which is not that easy in a country like Brazil, where trips are long. Rock in Rio is worth the experience, but it is exhausting and even approximating the stage two hours before the show, the...

To be honest, I think most opener choices have similar audience reception in Europe: only the first rows interact without much enthusiasm. It's common to see people standing with their arms crossed even in Aces High. I would rather wait until South America to judge Senjutsu as an opener.

I don't get why POTO has been out of the set for this long. It is easy for Bruce and the band, one of their best classics, great audience interaction. Download 2013 version is one of their most praised video records on Youtube.
