    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    The announcement doesn't say anything like "there will be no further dates--" so I'd say a handful of additions are totally possible! :)

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    (quoted from the speculation thread) Well that's the thing; what would be truly "proper" 50 years celebration? Even a truly discography spanning set would have some significant omissions in basically every scenario and while I understand and can get behind the love and hunger towards wider...

    Iron Maiden Tour 2025 - Discussion

    Given the time period this set seems to be covering, isn't it basically a Real Live! history tour... :p Anyway, I understand that a lot of people here wished for a more discography-spanning setlist approach, but the main focus would've been on 80's anyway and there is no way - like absolutely...

    Dave's of Future Past Cool! Imagine the tour poster! :wub:

    The Prisoner in Sydney. Wow. Very strong performance! Nice groove and Bruce absolutely nails it.

    I guess that depends on how we want to define Greatest Hits... :p A few people remember that retrospectively speaking one of the biggest, if not the biggest Greatest Hits tour the band has done with the current line-up was actually The Final Frontier world tour 2010-11! Save Brighter Than a...

    I know you meant tour/set ideas, but taken out the context, that's rather good one..! ;)

    Iron Maiden Tour 2025 - Discussion

    Just my opinion of course, but I have never been a fan of this idea. It would absolutely make sure that there's a could of very interesting cuts, but I think it also limits the possibilities with certain material too much. For example, as much as I like most songs on (e.g) The Final Frontier...

    Nightwish

    :) I actually liked this second single a lot. It's not absolutely mind-blowing, but I love its somewhat uneasy, grinding vibe a lot and overall, I quite like it! I still have the same opinion on Perfume of the Timeless... which was not really having an opinion about it. I say it again: sounds...

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    Damn, Caught Somewhere in Time sounds so good! Nicko is able to keep it together, Bruce's voice just soars so beautifully and those guitars... insanely beautiful! Above there's lots of discussion about the next set and Nicko's ability to perform certain songs. I agree with the most that there...

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    Referring to the interview above, I think it's kind of sweet how, over time, Bruce has softened up towards Somewhere in Time and has expressed, and is expressing, great enthusiasm towards songs like Stranger in a Strange Land and Alexander the Great and meanwhile Steve also confesses his love...

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    Maiden posted on social media that there is a chance to win a signed setlist or a vinyl by scanning those "Fan cards" they're giving at shows. The post had a picture of the singed setlist. Reading the comments... inspired me. ;)

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    I don't particularly care if he's not sounding as good as, for example, in 2018 or 2008. I agree that his voice tends to get a bit tired and more strained towards the end of the show, but he's singing most of it very, very well and he can absolutely do justice to the material they're playing...

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    That surprised: In addition to: Yeah. :D Frankly, I'm quite happy that they keep doing this rather amazing set. I checked out some of the YouTube clips @onurb posted; pretty good! Bruce sounds very good. I might be in the minority with this view, but I absolutely love Days of Future Past and I...

    It is certainly true that the Maiden management hasn't pushed to upscale the live production etc. but then again... so what? At this point, I honestly doubt that getting significantly bigger in the US is on their agenda. It certainly was, or might have been not too long ago (SBIT-TFF-ME runs)...

    What songs/albums have you changed your mind the most drastically about, since you started listening to IM?

    I definitely agree with you that the 2015 remasters are, in general, pretty good and certainly a lot better effort than the 1998 ones. I have always liked The X-Factor, but the 2015 remaster certainly gives it a bit beefier sound, which is very welcome. It's obviously not a mind-blowing...

    I can see what you mean and you made a fair point about many things, like the stage set topic (which I can certainly be wrong about), but the bolded section caught my eye... :P Like, yeah, maybe? But... before the "hints" started dropping in 2022, did anyone seriously think that they'd give...

    Iron Maiden Tour 2025 - Discussion

    Assuming some kind of a feature is coming indeed, it'll be interesting to see if it's a full-fledged Iron Maiden release, potentially accompanied with some live concert or a selection of live bonuses, e.g like The BBC Archives, or more of a "third party" product with some license blessing from...

    Bruce Dickinson

    Personally, I'm fine with Tattooed Millionaire being neglected. :D I really like those first three songs on it and there's some neat, good-spirited rock'n'roll overall, but to me, it's a bit of a "Sanctuary situation"; effective live tracks, but given the limited time and setlist space left, I'm...

    Iron Maiden Tour 2025 - Discussion

    Too early to say anything for sure as of yet (duhh...), but assuming that the 2025 tour will touch the Powerslave & 50th anniversary milestones in some notable way, I'd speculate the following: - as some other(s) have suggested, I think they might, in a way, rehash the LOTB stage set concept of...
