    Blaze Bayley

    Those would be cool to hear, though doubtful he''ll re-release the album again anytime soon. The Day I Fell to Earth is such a cool song, hoping they'd bring it back to the setlist - saw them play it a few times in 2015/16.

    Steve Harris

    Question about the BL shows last winter... Did Steve sign autographs after the show? He did that pre-covid, and I'm thinking about going to the Paris show on Saturday..

    if you could time-travel: which Maiden gig of the past would you attend & why?

    I'd go to the opening night of the X Factour. Blaze's first show, my favourite album.

    Ordered mine! The Skunkworks group is one of the few reasons I'm even of FB nowadays...

    Your favourite three album closers

    Como Estais Amigos isn't jus my favourite album closer, it's my favourite Maiden song, period.

    Blaze Bayley

    Excited, even more so if this means a Blood & Belief-themed tour in after the War Within Me run, especially now that the band has 2 guitars. Regret has always been my favourite songs of his, as well as Soundtrack of My Life and Tearing Yourself to Pieces.

    what Maiden song parts do you think sound live much better than on the original album?

    I'd say most Maiden songs sound better live than on the actual albums. Hallowed Be Thy Name being the nr 1 example of this, IMO. Live versions from RIR, DOTR or F666 are so much better. The intro, guitar harmonies, Bruce's vocals...

    Your Maiden blasphemy

    TNOTB, Piece or Powerslave have never been anywhere near my top Maiden albums, and I find them all overrated. This is a constant fighting-topic with my friends that are into Maiden. Don't get me wrong, I like all of the albums, but none of those 3 come even close to The X Factor, for example.

    Bruce nasty to fans??

    The time I met Dave Mustaine at a book signing, he was super nice to me, but when I told him the book store wanted me to buy an extra copy from them and had told to me I couldn't get my original one signed, all hell broke loose :lol: He threatened to quit the signing altogether if they treat his...

    Bruce nasty to fans??

    We're all human beings after all...including Bruce. Also, him snapping at fans like that for no reason sounds really odd, if they weren't being douchebags when they approached him. Could also be that he had just been harassed by some asshole-''fans'' just before and he just had enough. I met...

    Iron Maiden in the strangest places

    TNOTB is played on the ''Sons a Witches'' episode of South Park. Also in the ''Imaginationland'' episodes, you can see Eddie among the evil characters after the wall breaks. In the movie Hot Tub Time Machine, one of the main characters wears a Killers shirt most of the time. Seen a bunch more...

    Blaze Bayley

    To each their own I guess- I like everything the man has done, even The King of Metal had its moments. The first Blaze Bayley Band was to me quite special. The heavier sound and death/thrashier riffs suited Blaze's vocals and the live sound was quite different as well, the Night That Will Not...

    Blaze Bayley

    Blood and Belief is full of amazing songs, too- Regret, Tearing Yourself to Pieces and Soundtrack of My Life being my favourites. The only thing I find lacking is the production, but that's true for other albums of his as well. Overall I really like Blaze's lyrics much better when they're...

    Blaze Bayley

    Dream of Mirrors, Blood Brothers, Mercenary, Nomad were the 4 songs lying around while Blaze was still in the band. Not sure which one(s) he contributed to, though.

    Blaze Bayley

    Huge fan of the ''The Man Who Would Not Die'' and ''Promise & Terror'' albums. Heavier than any other albums Blaze has put out - the Bermudez brothers had a death metal background, and it shows on the riffs. I think the heavier direction really suited Blaze's vocals as well. My personal...

    303 is such a great song, my favourite from the record with a monster chorus. Wonder if it's even possible to write bad songs about WWII fighter pilots?
