    Blaze Bayley

    I started following Blaze around TMWWND, and really dig the heavier sound. Was super glad to hear The Man Who Would Not Die and Watching the Night Sky live the last time Blaze played in Helsinki - adding Luke to the band means they can now pull off some songs they couldn't with just one guitar...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Just join the FC and get tickets from the forum. Easy, reliable and you won't get fucked with the prices. The only reason I'm a member - got tickets from there many times.

    Which Maiden album features the best Janick Gers songwriting contributions?

    The X Factor. 7 songs in total, all of which are awesome. His guitar work on 2 AM is unbelievable - a career-best solo on that one IMO. He really had a good songwriting team with Blaze, so many songs on TXF (plus the b-sides), Como Estais Amigos and the ones that went on to BNW.

    Steve Harris

    The show in Tampere is in Pakkahuone, which holds 1200 people if sold out. Man, it's going to be empty in there :rolleyes: Seen some shows in there (Dirkschneider, Overkill etc) with less than a 100 people in...hoping they can switch to a smaller venue if/when it doesn't sell that well.

    Judas Priest

    Man, Sea of Red is such a cool song.

    If Bruce would sing a Maiden song he hasnt sung live before?

    I really think Blood on the World's Hands would work, especially the part where the songs title is repeated. The song could also benefit from having three guitars.

    Am I the only One Who thinks LOTF sung by Bruce sucks ?

    I commented on the Finnish Maiden podcast that Lord of the Flies on DOTR is unlistenable unless drunk. I stand by that statement.

    Blaze Bayley

    303 is an amazing song - and yet they didn't play it on the tour...fingers crossed for the next run of shows.

    Bruce Dickinson

    Hope it's true...haha my bank account is already fucked with the FP tour. But would definitely go to the first solo show in years. Hoping he'd take Chris Dale out on tour as well.

    Blaze Bayley

    Yeah, the vocals on that one are insane. Speed of Light sounds a 100 times better on it than on the 10th Dimension album.

    Blaze Bayley

    Waiting for some Finnish tourdates, the shows at On The Rocks have been packed every time. Would be cool if Blaze played in Riga or Tallinn for example, saw the Silicon Messiah show in Tallinn in 2015...

    Como Estais Amigos

    My favourite song by Iron Maiden, ever. The lyrics (grammatical errors aside :D), the middle part, the solos, all perfect. It's a crime against humanity that this was the only song not played live from Virtual. Seen Blaze do this song many times, always the highlight of the show.

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Zagreb was such a cool place to visit as well. People were so friendly, welcoming and chatty about Maiden, even if they werent going to the show. Amazing food and good beers -> will definitely go again if Maiden plays there again.

    Which is your favourite city?

    As a Helsinki local, I have to ask: Why?:D

    Which is your favourite city?

    I really liked Budapest, went there twice this year. Such a cool city to walk around, interesting history, great restaurants, and a cool craft beer scene. Plus it helps that the prices are so cheap for a Finn:D And the thermal spas - a perfect way to start your day if you've had a beer or twelve...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Man I really hope it's not Rockfest again. Big money for shit bands and ''Radio Rock'' atmosphere...no thanks:rolleyes: Screwing people over w/ tickets, big lines everywhere, no decent accommodation in the area..had such bad experiences with Rockfest that I'd rather they'd skip Finland...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Yeah, seen him do the song a few times, always a highlight of the show if he plays it.

    The Future Past tour 2023

    I'd actually rather get 5 from Virtual than SIT...Futureal, When Two Worlds Collide, Lightning, Clansman, Como. It's criminal that the only song not played live from Virtual is Como Estais Amigos, my favourite Maiden song from the catalogue.
