When did Sooty first appear on Nicko's drum kit, and has he always been dressed in tour-appropriate attire? The earliest picture I found was from the AMOLAD tour, with Sooty dressed in camouflage.

I do think Dance of Death is actually very underrated, mostly being remembered for its horrible cover art, loud production and being squashed between two vastly superior albums, rather than the merit of its music. I agree it has some strong highs in Montsegur, Dance of Death, No More Lies (yes...

Is this to say DoD is an improvement over BNW? Explain yourself. :mad:

After all the Maiden hype I'd completely forgotten this was happening, and I'm going to see Duran Duran tomorrow. I know where I'd rather be :cool:

I almost feel like they've "peaked" with this tour, with it being their 50th Anniversary and having played their biggest UK crowd (which I was a part of and I won't shut up about it), where else can they go? You're right that they can't repeat any history tours without looking like they're...

FTFY, now this post is 'arry 'approvable.

FWIW I was not being serious :ok:

I hope not, then he'll subject us all to his sloppy playing :facepalm:

Depends, you like this band Iron Maiden? If so, it's probably not for you.

Could it have been drummed up by the media's whole "Oasis vs. Blur" thing? Or those two obnoxious pricks garnering media attention and increasing the band's popularity? I'm just spitballing.

Would anyone have known they were spoilers if you hadn't pointed them out? Could've been referring to a previous tour :innocent:

I can add country number 11 to my list this December, as I'll be visiting Salzburg, Austria. I'll also be ticking something off the bucket list by being there for Krampusnacht and seeing the Krampus Run :lol:

Welcome to the board! Who is most beautiful and/or best-dressed member of Maiden, in your opinion? :)

To be fair my own memory of the real lyrics is a little hazy, though it was the last verse that felt "wrong", I couldn't remember why. I did notice he sang "the pilot's boat, his son and the hermit mariner", but I will allow one cock-up in a 13-minute epic :lol:

Anybody who tries to spin it that the London gig was bad is a dirty dirty liar. I have a lot of gripes with the venue and I think there were a few technical difficulties (though the acoustics are so bad in the stadium that I couldn't always hear very clearly) but the band were on fucking fire, I...

RESURRECTION MAN WHEN A THREAD'S FAILED HE'LL RAISE IT ONCE AGAIN RESURRECTION MAAAAAAN Make it happen!! Source Author's Note: The slight looseness of this post is a result of the author having very quickly downed a (non Maiden-branded) rum and coke before posting.

It did make sense to rejig the setlist and include some classics for the Download gig, but as the concept was a bit half-baked I wonder if was supposed to be more of an "apology" to those morons who complained about AMOLAD being played in its entirety.

I was on a bit of a Smiths kick this morning. Good band but I've gotta be in the right mood for them, which is usually not a good mood :lol:

Following this, my insurance renewed last week, so the insurance company ran my license details past the DVLA to make sure they matched... surprise, surprise, there's a "possible discrepancy". They then provided me a link to receive a licence check code, which I then sent off to the insurance...

First time I'm listening to it in its entirety. Better late than never.
