    The Future Past tour 2023

    Moments I'm embarassed to be a Maiden fan...when I read comments like this one...I tend to think Maiden fans are intelligent or at least way above some low-level behaviors like yours...it seems like I might be wrong...oh well there are exceptions everywhere, thanks to prove that! Btw, one day...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Looks like someone forgot to take his appropriate medicine. Take a break from being so rude, would you? As for Bruce's comments maybe he went a bit too far but in the heat of the moment, specially when he knows what this may mean for the future (for example, throat problems, not being able to...

    Maiden's Biggest Missed Opportunities Live

    If I was the one that would have had the privilege to create their set-lists, here's what I would have chosen per album, to be played at least once or more often: Iron Maiden: Strange world. I know this is not a typical Maiden song but I like the dreamy aspect of it Killers: Purgatory and...

    Moments you thought Maiden were ridiculous and embarrassing

    What I can see as truly embarassing and ridiculous is that some feel that after 30 years...more than 30 years actually that Janick doesn't fit the band...are aware of everything that he brought to the band??? Not only in terms of songwriting but at a lot of levels!?!! Yeah, ok some of his stage...

    Moments you thought Maiden were ridiculous and embarrassing

    I couldn't have said it better...Bruce is clever enough to know what is doing when he's on stage. He's there to entertain the audience, maybe sometimes he speaks about subjects that may upset but really you don't need to be the new Einstein to understand that he doesn't it too seriously. He's...

    Sixth Powerslave Song Played Live?

    That's one of the main interests when you collect Iron Maiden bootlegs. Because as you said, with Maiden their setlists stay pretty much the same, so when you start, you just want to have the best sounding bootlegs from each tour (or at least 2 or 3). Then once this step is done, you may have...

    Sixth Powerslave Song Played Live?

    I kinda understand part of your point of view since myself, fan for almost 30 years (bought my first album, A Real Dead One in december 1993), have been searching for every bit of information about my favorite band and I think I have each and every book available (at least the ones published in...

    Sixth Powerslave Song Played Live?

    I don't comment quite often here but read this forum every day and to be honest, your comments come quite as arrogant. Why do you act like you're the only one that knows the whole truth??? You may know a lot about Iron Maiden, maybe a lot more than a lot of us here but should it mean you know...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Not really, as stated before, been reading forums back then and if some people were surprised, there wasn't a lot of complaints. And as for my personal experience, in Zurich, the audience was really into it. So not making memories better than they were, just stating what they really were. For...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    I remember it quite differently, the show I went to (Zurich in early december 2006), fans were really into it and seem to appreciate each and every song and in general the feeling was that it was a great album and very well welcomed. Of course there was always some with the "its not the same as...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    It might be a bit of an excuse for sure but on the other hand, I think it sounds fine with this tempo, it doesn't bother me. At least it sounds better now than when they played it live back then almost even faster (well maybe not CSIT but some songs were ridicously fast. Probably the best...

    Sixth Powerslave Song Played Live?

    Well, first of all its something personal, so there is no "rule" if I may say it this way that says if you record something you have to share it with everyone. Secondly, if nowadays it's really easy to record a show thanks to our Iphones, back in the day, just to get into the venue with your...

    Sixth Powerslave Song Played Live?

    Talking about my "addiction" to bootlegs, I almost reached around 2000 bootlegs so I can assure you that I know a lot about it, about each gig recorded, about a lot of unreleased recordings and other similar stuff. I remember Stevehunter as well, great guy and done some great recordings during...

    Sixth Powerslave Song Played Live?

    Back in the day I was a huge bootleg collector (lets say I was totally addicted between 2003 and 2014) and during that time I used to look to have at least a recording from each and every gig available. I had the chance to meet and be in contact with a lot of traders and among these there was...

    Sixth Powerslave Song Played Live?

    So it's a total of 5 persons...among how many that were there at the time? Do we truly have to believe only these 5? Isn't there a slightly chance they might be wrong? It's something that happened (or maybe it didn't) almost 40 years ago and probably at one single gig among almost 200 concerts...

    Mother Russia

    My exact feelings. I never understood why so few seem to like this song. Along with Run silent, run deep and the title track, its the best on the album. Also, as you said, it's 33 years...so I'm not gonna compare it to the present situation, I'm not gonna mix music and political situation/war...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Yeah, my idea here too. I just think when comparing age and performance I prefer the ones of the last twenty years because in the 80's, despite the fact he was younger so it should have meant his voice should have been way better, it sounded like sometimes he didn't know how to control it (for...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    I wish I could agree with you but far from it. Having listened to about 120-130 bootlegs from that tour, apart from some nights here and there, it was really not Bruce's best tour in terms of singing. Maybe because he wasn't particularly happy with the album (here comes the story of how all of...
