Very interesting point. I tend to agree with Nicko on the point that TBOS is "sonically the best album" they produced. The problem for many of us is that being sonically the best is not enough in face of memory. All things combined, TRTB is a masterpiece on its own; however, in comparison with...

Great low budget approach to RTTH :D. They now have some nice combination of serious and technologically sophisticated versus fun and silly and laughable theatrics. These guys know what they are doing there. And come on, Maiden was always a bit funny!!

well, before all, thanks for trying to convince me that what I like are just among the other openers.;) I did not make a clear distinction between album vs. live openers -- you are right on that. The reason for it was that I rely on a combination of them in evaluating the status that a song...

I probably agree with you on that, but I said "arguably" for a reason, given the status they acquired/ or the criticisms they received in time: - The Sign of the Cross: it will never be an opener in any concert. It does not either look like an opener like those of other albums. - Caught...

I don't like most of the openers. Dislike: - Prowler - Ides of March - Invaders - The Wicker Man - Futureal - Wildest Dreams - The Final Frontier (+Satellite whatever) Got accustomed to the following in time. I don't dislike them, but I would rarely click on them on my playlist: - Where...

Bruce Dickinson - Inertia (live) His voice is so great... https://open.spotify.com/track/3qdpKRpeQIy88N4JH5AJvG?si=Cymn2MHBQCq-2YlxaQn9oA

they keep repeating everytime that "this is sonically the best". The problem with these statements is that it gives the impression that they keep reproducing the same song so as to make it a bit better-- which is partially true, when you think of, say, TRATB or the Empire in comparison with some...

If I am not mistaken, Bruce noted many times that he almost never listens to music. This is in fact a common problem with musicians. This is why a music enthusiast --be them audiophiles/hi-fi people or ordinary listeners-- tends to engage with a piece of music in ways a professional, including...

Such as replacing "Alexander the Great" with "Brucie the Little" everytime we write it? That would be a deterrent factor for me. Ps. @Dangerina liked this.

wow, seems like a good idea! the point is that it will be one among many if the band plays it once. As far as I see, nobody says ATG is their all time favorite. Leaving aside the rarity talk, I bet most of us would say that SOTC is a better one. Many of us, like me, would prefer FTGGOG over it...

Well, after seeing Bruce and Axl Rose one after other in 2 days, I should underline that Bruce is simply legendary. He is just epic, glorious, whatever that rocks. So lucky that we have all his works, and lucky that he is even stronger after the cancer.

:Dexactly, you put it into the right context, it is burning in UK today.

Btw, let us not forget that Icarus was adviced by his father also not to get close to water.

I am hanging around in London with FOI/Revelations tshirt. Will I be banned for sharing spoiler?

Add Revelations somewhere and it is perfect. Infinite Dreams to somehwere in the encore instead of TETMD.

I think he was so funny in the WED costume, like a South Park character, and I think--based on his gestures throughout the "scream for me" parts--he knows it, enjoys it very much & wants us to laugh too.

Bruce Dickinson, 2020.

There is a wide range of Maiden fans, from Lady Gaga to Lil Wayne :innocent:

I wholeheartedly hope so. :) The only doubt I have is, how they will know when they become a parody of themselves. I hope you will be right on that one.

My fear is that they will be disillusioned enough to retire only following a great failure (a tour or an album failing badly). LOTB is not this one for sure. The tour is so far a great success. I hope they don't fail in any of the things they will produce in the near future.
