The Revelations, Blood Brothers, Sign of the Cross and Flight of Icarus lineup was top drawer. Not as good a the run from Revelations to Icarus in 2018/19. That was outstanding.

I saw Maiden in 2022. The place didn’t really get into the gig until Icarus. I still loved hearing everything before it (I even liked Senjutsu live), but the setlist was not well paced. Plus the whole ‘moving house’ tearing the Senjutsu stage down looked ridiculous on daylight.

Guitar synth-Somewhere in Time Keyboard synthesisers- Seventh Son

Pearl Jam have 3 guitars most of the time. Radiohead used to have 3 guitars a lot back in the early days (when they wrote good songs)

Plus Bruce was not that popular in the media after the gig…

I think they will do Download. One more show. I agree about legacy bands. The new generation need their time in the sun.

Here’s my list Zulu Lulu Hell No Dreamstate Starchildren Machine Men River of No Return Rain on the Graves

My only criticism of AOB is the steel pipe in Starchildren. It ruins the song for me.

I agree. I also think that there is a correlation between weaker Iron Maiden albums and albums where Steve is the most dominant solo song writer. E.g. Virtual XI and Senjutsu. He needs others to thrive and Brave New World proved this.

I know there is always the discussion about bands being able to sell out larger venues because they play nights back-to-back at a smaller venue. However, I would be interested to see a percentage chart as to how many people attend both shows. That would diminish the chance of Maiden headlining...

It’s crazy to think you have to go back to the Early Days tour in 2005 to find the last tour that didn’t extend beyond one calendar year. I know some tours changed set lists and stage designs, but they were still labelled as the same tour. E.g. The Final Frontier tour. It would be a shame to...

I would pay good money to see Maiden perform in Welsh.

I never miss a chance on this forum to mention that I snagged the Senjutsu boxset for £12.

I very much doubt Bruce is innocent in all of this, but Roy is not coming across well in all of this. He sounds like a sad and bitter man.

Since this, I have acquired Beast Over Hammersmith on vinyl. I forgot that I had some DVD singles as well (Wildest Dreams, Rainmaker and Different World) I also replaced the Mission Edition CD of The Final Frontier with the 2015 remaster on CD. I am in the process of decluttering much of my...

I will drop this transcript again from a podcast earlier in the year where Brendon Duffy talks about remixing Skunkworks for Atmos. However there is nothing about extra guitars or parts mentioned.

I would laugh in real life but I don’t think my disposition could take it.

I’ve been wearing earplugs for gigs, both as an audience member and player since I was 16. I couldn’t recommend it more to people.
