I saw Maiden on the 2017 tour, and there was a guy next to me who was at his first show. At the end he expressed his disappointment that they didn’t play Run To the Hills, which he really wanted to hear. I felt kind of bad for him. Such a variety of fans come to Maiden shows, many for the first...

Is that Wookie Eddie on his back? Maybe the next album will be Star Wars themed.

Only 27 shows is too bad. Lots of people won't get to see it. I guess that's the concession to their ages. As recently as the Book of Souls tour they were doing 70+ shows. Oh, well.

No, it's because Alexander the Great died of fever in Babylon. So he never made it back to Greece. So neither did Maiden.

Fear of the Dark is the last Maiden 80s album, spiritually. And a hits tour has to include the song Fear of the Dark, since it is their greatest hit. This tour makes sense to me. I’m sure they’ll include some cool deep cuts.

So boring that he never had to get a real job and could make a living doing the same few songs for forty years.

Bring back Tailgunner. It may be a poor man’s Aces High, but it rips!

I love that low-budget cover. It perfectly represents the music on the album, in my opinion.

It would be cool if Bruce played a couple of Maiden rarities that he wrote, like Flash of the Blade. No chance Maiden will ever play it. So why not?

I really want Bruce to play Eternity Has Failed live. It's different enough from the Maiden version to play. And it's one of Maiden's greatest modern-era songs, too. So it's not redundant. It's just a great song. He should play it.

Well, it is their best album. So that can never be a bad thing. But they've already done a Powerslave revisited tour. It will be something else, I think.

Samson and Maiden played a show together way back when. Bruce said Maiden blew them off the stage. I'm surprised he didn't meet Paul and the Maiden guys that day.

That’s quite the accusation to make against Maiden without facts.

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, uh, your opinion, man." I have no problem with fantasy and dark themes. The Old Testament of the Bible is filled with stories of wars, giants, demons, murders, betrayals, etc. It's highly dramatic. Heavy metal music reflects that. It's a very...

Sad to see this happen. Oh, well. At this point I don't think Bruce needs Roy Z. He can find a new songwriting partner, if he needs one. Maybe his new band can help write. As for Roy, I agree that calling yourself The House Band of Hell is stupid. Too much emphasis on "hell" in metal these...

I didn’t care for the song on the album, but it really works live. Seems like a real crowd-pleaser.

Maiden has to play the 2024 shows they booked, though. So there is no choice. They must bring Blaze Bayley back to finish the Future Past tour.

If Blaze truly cares about his performances, and I believe he does, he should start getting healthier. Bad health = bad performances, or no performances. Of course it's more difficult to eat healthy on the road or in the rod, but those difficulties can be overcome if one really wants to. Lack...

From you: "It is difficult to eat healthy in the rod unless you have good finances behind you." I understand your point better now, of course. It got obscured by the typo!

What does "in the rod" mean? And are you saying poor people can't eat healthy? Rice is cheap.
