I agree, but they aren't legendary to the point of the run of NOTB through 7th Son. And I love the debut myself as well, I just don't see them doing another tour revisiting them once again since the main bulk of their classics aren't in there and I can't see another addition to Iron Maiden and...

I wouldn't say that's too absurd, those 2 albums are neither from the Golden Era (so, not very famous) nor on top of most diehards lists. I can't see them doing a tour revisiting them again. And outside of those 2 you mentioned, they only played somewhat regularly Phantom (that I think is due...

We're really discussing how much Bruce is running in a show. Might as well hire a scouting football website to get his heatmap during the concerts and compare his distance covered.

Looking closely it seems Nicko actually almost goes for it but then don't. He might be just a little rusty or even ill, think in some time it'll be much better. Just got to find his groove.

Hear, hear!

Do we have our first female Eddie on the liberty statue? :D

Yeah, but that isn't the point lol. I would still be very excited to see Maiden touring without Nicko, I'm not against that. I'd just be much more excited to see them with Nicko, even if he isn't playing some damn fills, and the tempos are pretty good this tour too. However, if Nicko himself...

I can't see Maiden doing a tour playing an album in its entirety but I can see them doing a tour similar to this one, mixing a new album with an older one. And in that way the BNW approach could work perfectly for a tour in 2025, for example, its 25th anniversary. 5 or 6 songs from a new album...

CSIT sounded great.

Nicko is essential to the Maiden sound. Joe is very good but his funky and groovy style just can't be replicated that easily. Even if he's simplifying some parts, his creativity makes up for it. And like everyone else said, it's the 2nd damn show.

I wouldn't.

Yeah, I'm not a drummer but wouldn't think this specfically would be demanding enough to be dropped.

Felt the same during Wasted Years. And Nicko is at least very creative so even with the simplified drum lines you still get great performances. Their clock is definitely ticking at least for extensive touring, man will be 71 this year.

It seems Trooper's fills are gone for good

Yeah, I’d say Maiden continues as a studio band until Nicko can’t play at all (not tour). However, as a live act, not much time left.

How often do production hold tickets get available a few days before the concert? Flight passages to London are exceptionally cheap but I don’t have tickets, thinking about buying anyway.

Get well soon mate!

Finally bringing justice to a damn good but overlooked 80s album in an album tour? Power Windows might very well be my favorite Rush album just like SIT with Maiden. Does this mean we'll have a 50th anniversary tour afterwards and that's all folks? :ninja:

Maybe it was just in a short list of SIT songs but the set got too long or it didn't sound good, not necessarily replaced by another.

I’m afraid Nicko can’t be quick on that one anymore and if he tries he might be dead afterwards.
