With some aspects, I'm right.

Thxx!

In mentioned aspect - you are right. I'm wonder why Iron Maiden felt so hard in the States back in the 90s, why did American fans abandon the band? Was it just the result of trend shifting process? Irons were always out of trends, so that situation shouldn't affect them that much. Weird ...

Oh no, Rush has always been bigger in States, not in the other regions but in the States for sure. Generally, Maiden’s achievements are result of fans loyality and band's musical vision, Rod even couldn't do anything to make them more acclaimed by music industry.

Exactly, the loyality of fans made Maiden successful, not Rod which probably doesn't care that much about commercial success. I suppose even if at some point of their career the audience lost interest in Maiden he wouldn't be surprised or sad. There's some kind of mistery why the band didn't...

No way it could be true.

A next stupidity?!

Very likely, I think 18 tracks would be too much, probably 17 + intro is enough. A great choice anyway.

Exactly. I know that's right. We can say he could/should do better for Maiden in terms of media attention. Rod has always been a stingy man, but sometimes you should take a risk, spend more money, invest in a popularity contest if you know what I mean.

Good place for him.

Probably someone from the Sounds magazine editing board.

Trooper will be for absolutely sure!

OK, you're right—referring to my original post, I think even about the current situation. Despite the great respect from the army of fans and legions of musicians, undisputed commercial success, and absolutely legendary status as one of the biggest live bands ever, Irons aren't so praised by the...

I know all about you're right, but still BS and Ozzy are more praised by the music industry 'cos their management(s) cares a lot about.

I agree with you and perfectly remember the 90s. One thing to blame Rod for is not to do enought to put a pressure on mainstream media to promote the band and gain them more respect and attention, even in the UK. This band deserves that and be same awarded and praised by music industry as (for...

No, I'm definitely not about and understand this point of view.

Live album in the Autumn would be fine, book, documentary, and live release, month after month.

Not just booking, he's responsible for the band's relations with the media, show business, promotion, and many aspects.

He's manager, he should care about band's reputation, legacy, and help to built the real legend. Rod did a lot, but some things he could do better.
