    And, Bruce remembers obscure tracks from the Killers album!

    The Book of Souls Album Cover...

    Looks much better, in my opinion. The official one is pretty empty.

    Tears Of A Clown

    I interpreted this in the sense that he was a man "made of false smiles" as opposed to actual smiles, i.e. a man who smiled falsely, so to speak, a man who was hiding his sadness most of the time behind the false smile. You can see it in the interview on the previous page, he's talking about...

    The Red And The Black

    Hopefully they'll use the 13 minutes to play two shorter songs from the album instead.

    Tournament of Maiden Solos: Tiebreak: 1B ==> 2 (2nd)

    The prisoner, although it was tough. The Brave New World solo is also pretty good.

    Tournament of Maiden Solos: the Top 10 video!

    ROTAM and FOTD, but a very difficult choice.

    Disc 1 vs Disc 2 (yeah, Travis is going to kill me)

    Sorry Travis, but I want to know what everyone thinks - which disc is better? For me it's definitely Disc 2 - it starts with three great rockers, then the deep Man of Sorrows and EOTC. On Disc 1 I adore IESF and SOL is pretty cool, but TRATB just kills the momentum. I haven't gotten into TBOS yet.

    The Book Of Souls sounds so much better on vinyl (Videos)

    The vocals seem to be a bit clearer on the vinyl version @Earendil Ancient Mariner posted.

    Death Or Glory

    Exactly my sentiments. Also, I love the rhythm of his singing, especially the part when he signs "the book that he wroTTTe". So fun!

    Shadows Of The Valley

    Also, "The fear that's inside of the men of the oath", i.e. The Night's Watch.

    Keyboards on The Book of Souls album

    I think that he said in the trunk interview that they used the midi keyboard during the live recording so they wouldn't have to do a million takes before Bruce got it right (I think he said they wouldn't be done with it until next Christmas :D). It could have been re-recorded on a real piano...

    Guitar Solos - The Book of Souls

    So the licks in IESF might very well be from Adrian's live track. I mean, they do sound like something he would play.

    Guitar Solos - The Book of Souls

    IESF - Adrian's background solo is in the center, and then I noticed that there's a lick on the right channel at 06:56 - 06:58 and at 07:05 - 07:06. Is that still Adrian, maybe his rhythm track from the live recording session? Has anyone figured out yet where their rhythm guitars are placed in...

    Misheard lyrics

    I thought it was Sailors of the sky, a half-breed, while in fact it is a hardened breed. I thought they were a half-breed because they were loyal to both the king and the airship creed. :P

    Iron Maiden video interviews / shows

    I finally realized why he sounds a bit strange - it could be his tongue is still swollen or numb a little bit, he sounds like he came from the dentist. I hope he gets back to full form. Anyway, he's a great storyteller! :) Full Bruce Dickinson interview coming soon, says at the end of this...

    The Official Book of Souls Tour 2016 Thread (Warning: Spoilers within!)

    It's gonna be somewhere in the Southern hemisphere, that's for sure. The upside-down text, as you said, might be a clue to "down-under", or Australia.
