This though... I'm far from concurring.

Amen to that!

Was it to make a single album from both, I would pick the following tracks: Tailgunner, NPFTD, PENO, Fates Warning, Run Silent Run Deep, Bring Your Daughter, Be Quick Or Be Dead, ATSS and FOTD. It would make a really cool album but wouldn't even crack the top 10 in my rank.

Highlights? FOTD. It features three songs that could be included in any Maiden setlist and would light a fire on the crowd (one of them has been doing that since the album's release... perhaps it should be given a pass on two or three more tours than 2005 but hey, fair enough). As a whole? NPFTD...

Monster track from a monster album... my favorite since The Years Of Decay.

Here's mine (not my favorites but a more realistic approach): The Number Of The Beast Wrathchild Revelations Two Minutes To Midnight Rime Of The Ancient Mariner Can I Play With Madness Killers Phantom Of The Opera The Evil That Men Do Wasted Years Bring Your Daughter... To The Slaughter The...

IMO the best analysis on this hypothetical (and enormously far-fetched) scenario on the board. Evey issue spotted in a clear, deep yet concise way. Congrats.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!

I wasn't getting your point but hey... I simply won't compare both things. Not that I think it's wrong to make such comparison (and you're truly entitled to do so) but personally, I think Nicko and some dudes helping him recover rhythm and Iron Maiden (even at their lowest) are two different...

This set is never going back at all :P

It seems to be a recurring theme at the forum so I'll give my take. As I said before, if Maiden would make a 50th anniversary tour I think it will be heavily based upon hits. Plus, one must take into account some band member's age and how some tracks would be left out due to these limitations...

I agree with @Vaenyr : Rime IMO is pretty doubtful to be featured and Aces High near impossible. Which is a shame because Rime and Aces are no more no less my two favorite Maiden songs.

Indeed. It's usual in that kind of milestone celebration tour (Like Priest did). Mmmmmm... Other than 2 Minutes to Midnight and Powerslave I'm not seeing any other song entering the bill. On the one hand Aces High and Rime are really hard to pull nowadays and then, if it's a greatest hits tour...

In that case it's a comparison that IMO doesn't even make sense. Oranges to apples.

Yeah, I'd liked it too but let's be real. Yet I fear this would be a flop among a large portion of Maiden fans who hate the album's guts. Personally, I would love a tour featuring tracks like Man On The Edge, Sign Of The Cross, Fortunes Of War, Lord Of The Flies and The Edge Of Darkness. They...

To be fair this vocal performance is much but much better than Blaze's back in the day. And although this is more than a consensus among fans, it all has to do with vocal ranges. This guy sings the whole thing in falsetto and is on key for the vast majority of the song. Whether one likes his...

Yeah, there were at least a handful of instances in 2014 where they nailed it quite well. And it was played during the encore which increases the difficulty level. IMO it sounded even better than the majority of the first LOTB tour (with the exception of the first months in Europe). I won't even...
