Where? I see one shirt with both sides covered up. The other hidden thing I see is the other half of the price listing which presumably only includes the hidden shirt on it since it's not for sale yet and the name would obviously spoil what it is.

I think I would laugh forever if they never end up getting played on the tour, but I'm guessing Adrian didn't have them dug out of storage just for the fun of looking at them. He could still end up not feeling it and play one of the Lados on one song at one gig and never again I suppose.

Do we really have to entertain setlist.fm fanfiction every tour? There's been one since at least TBOS and unsurprisingly they've always been completely wrong because they're literally invented by someone who wanted five seconds of internet infamy in the laziest way possible.

It's a bit funny to read these reactions, since I know I've said it before and many others have tried to underline it too: this is meant to be the greatest hits setlist aimed specifically at the casual stadium crowd. The wild deep cut speculation never really made much sense on that background...

Some were dismissive about people taking ATG for granted as soon as the tour was announced, but it was blindingly obvious in my opinion that it'll get played since it's the memed-on song from SiT and Bruce repeatedly brought up their intention to play it on his book tour. SotC on LOTB was an...

There's a lot you can do with a screen, it's really just a question of if they've managed to make good use of it or if it'll just end up as a cost effective backdrop replacement with some animation and music video footage thrown in. I'd say they've certainly stretched hand-painted backdrops to...

I would advise you to be prepared for disappointment, honestly.

I don't think he really did though - Bruce or someone mentioned that FoI on LOTB was somewhere in the middle as a compromise tempo wise, not as slow as it was on the album but nowhere near as fast as they played it live back in the 80s.

Actually that makes perfect sense. They saw the thing at rehearsal, went "ah fuck it's crap" and had to roll with it until they could get a replacement since I doubt the big Eddies are exactly put together by the crew in an afternoon with whatever supplies they had at the local arts and crafts shop.

I just had the silliest idea: Fear as the opening song. It'd certainly fit the bill for Bruce's "I can't believe they're playing that... (at the start)" comment!

Doing the whole "he's still in the band, just not playing with us (live, but it's not like we're heading into the studio any time soon, so...)" I feel was a bit of a miscalculation, since honestly it sets expectations. If they never record another album then Nicko is de facto not in the band...

I'd say SBiT was much better because the gap was nine years at least since the last time Aces High, Powerslave and Wasted Years got played, and five years for HCW and CIPWM. Not to mention Rime obviously, and Moonchild. ME in comparison really felt like the most cynical way to do a tour based on...

Hallowed is absolutely getting played on a greatest hits tour, come on now. Meanwhile I don't think Wasted Years or Powerslave honestly qualify for the likely category at all. We had one hint about the latter which was still pretty vague, and the former just was the last encore of a tour...

RTTH, Running Free and Sanctuary were their "core" block for encore songs for quite a few tours in the 80s, so I wouldn't be surprised if in that spirit they'll play exactly those three songs but in reverse order as the encore. I feel like including both Running Free and Sanctuary is just...

Chronological order or reverse chronological order could both make sense, the latter being a little harder to pace since if we're taking Bruce's first 30 minutes comment to heart then we'd probably arrive at Rime by song number five and I don't see them going for it that early on. Chronological...

I do generally agree with that. However I do also know there was a lot of gnashing of teeth in newsgroups back in 2003 when the Dance of Death tour's setlist got posted after the first show, because "they're playing the same old songs every tour like CIPWM" which of course hadn't been played in...

Well yeah, but don't you think it would've been a little excessive to play three deep cuts that were already played on the previous non-album tour they did? I'm almost certain there were people complaining about DWYBO and Revelations already, subbing 22AA with something from the actual early...

I thought it was pretty obviously because they'd literally just played 22AA two years prior on the previous hits tour, so they wanted to try out the other early days era Charlotte song. Probably should've rehearsed 22AA too just in case so they could've dropped it in once it became obvious CTH...
