I don't feel there is a decline compared to the previous tour. And to me they sound overall better now than in 2022. Bruce for sure, since 2018. I agree that the setlist choices should be clever (Iron Maiden, Fear, Trooper and Number are the mandatory songs for them), but let's not forget that...

Votes: Crimson Thunder - one of those albums that are all killer, no filler. A true HammerFall and power metal classic. A true favorite of mine. Century Child - symphonic metal classic, almost no weak songs. Nightwish at some of their best with some big songs. Love it. Tenth Dimension - Blaze...

https://blabbermouth.net/news/andi-deris-says-helloween-can-satisfy-all-generations-of-fans-with-reunited-expanded-classic-lineup That's so true and good. It seems Andi is a big fan of Paul and the first 2 Maiden albums. Bruce as a vocalist and many songs with him too.

This, but I would say Maiden need 3 guitars for their style since the Reunion. Janick is a brilliant and perfect addition to the band in every aspect! The band only have benefits. It's not about that, it's about if 3 guitars fit the band and the material. Janick joked that Steve's bass playing...

Yep. 2028 is the latest point (another extended gap, but then it should be released early in the year), but they wouldn't want to lose touring months of an year. If Nicko plays something on the album, they'll say he's still part of the band. Both him and the band will be happy, right? Bruce...

Simon's playing would have some influence, for sure (the longer songs, faster rockers), but still the style will be like the last two albums, more or less with maybe some classic/early days features. It's curious.

Watching the videos again, is Nicko's kit missing some of the pieces?

And said he messed up that song for the first time.

And it sounds not good at all. Idk, maybe Simon's stamina for long tours is not there, although it's not every night and for every song, plus the next part of the song is faster,so. There are more such comments in Youtube, which is not good. I can understand Bruce for some tougher songs, but...

I doubt they'll record live in the studio, I just want a better overall production and more takes. Children Of The Damned, I never knew that! He has input on it and it makes sense to play it with Adrian. I doubt there's audio?

Hooks In You's instrumental parts shine with a different and especially SIT unique production (riff, harmonies). A production can elevate a song uninspired chorus, not. Great work. It sounds like a perfect ASAP song. You should try Run Silent Run Deep, Bruce had the song in some form in 1986. I...

I love the two albums with Blaze, so that should be my answer, but I think the best fit (overall) was Tony Martin era. Underrated albums. Then Blaze. Ripper Priest era has some cool heavy riffs and style, but that's not what I want from Priest, even if it's not that far from their style.

Both are classics and anthems with great riffs, choruses, tempo, verses and solos. My answer would be both, it's close, but I just love Wicker Man. What an impact.

50th Anniversary tour with Nicko, all albums: 1.Murders In The Rue Morgue 2.Wrathchild 3.2 Minutes To Midnight/22 Acacia Avenue 4.No More Lies 5.Infinite Dreams 6.The Number Of The Beast 7.The Clansman 8.Stranger In A Strange Land/Wasted Years/Heaven Can Wait 9.The Clairvoyant 10.Rime Of The...

Yeah, and I guess that was a joke, Nicko likes long songs. It was funny him saying that Steve's songs usually have too many solos, 12 minutes worth... btw, he was generally making comments about the drum kits, feel and tempo, unintentionally or not. Steve and I guess Bruce didn't want to make...

As much as I love the fantastic, timeless, classic 80's material and FOTD - I like the Reunion era even more. Plus the Blaze albums. I think it's magical. Maiden's whole career ofc. Both periods are amazing.

The obvious choice would be Clairvoyant, since they skipped Evil That Men Do, but the show would be longer. I thought Boots had a good chance (Infinite too), but I guess playing more POM songs during Legacy had it's impact to say. Don't forget a NPFTD song too. ;) Awesome. Btw, isn't the stage...

Nicko about Simon: Well, I've known Simon for a number of years. He actually was a British Drum Company endorsee for a bit. I got him his deal, actually, probably six, seven years back. And we were hanging out. Now obviously Steve took BRITISH LION on tour with him on 'The Future Past Tour'...

It seems that's also one of the reasons: https://blabbermouth.net/news/nicko-mcbrain-says-iron-maidens-new-drummer-simon-dawson-is-doing-a-fantastic-job I'm not complaining about that at all. It was an incredible journey, one that if the good Lord said, 'Would you do it all again?', 'yes'...

If Nicko plays on a few songs (2-3 at most, I guess; it would be so weird), I'd like him to write a song (or use the one from the SJ sessions if it's good). That would be nice, cool and perfect.
