I'm sorry but have you ever listened to SSOASS studio version? haha! In all fairness it's likely the middle section has extended out a bit live purely out of them not really knowing when to come back in .. But the studio version does have 2.5 minutes roughly of it

I agree - I felt like moving to screens was a good indicator that they'll be doing more tours with the screens - and while within 1 tour leg it might be difficult to change a song (or they feel it best to keep the same setlist for fans' sake), they would easily be able to change songs and have...

I don't know if 'retired for good' is necessarily accurate - I think Davey just wanted to try it out with a different pickup configuration, but decided to bring the other HSH strats instead. For all we know, this has been changed back to original spec' and is just waiting to come out on the next...

I think it would also look good as it is in the image, but if there was way more wear and tear - would make it look more 'hot rodded'. Although I think the middle pickup being white would still be weird. If the middle PU was black, that might be better Still, like you say - interesting to know...

Oh I think the shape of the neck would be a copy for sure, Davey would have his preference for that. I just mean maybe the material and the feel of it. As far as I can tell, its unfinished (or maybe a satin finish). Maybe - does he not have another white one out as well? I mean yes it is sort...

I don't know if I'd look that far into it to be honest. It has a walnut neck, so just an easy way to differentiate which guitar is which.. and for Colin, which guitar for which song on the setlist. I'd like to think they would come up with a more imaginative name than Walnut haha fun fact - I...

Smith Kotzen will be doing the encore, but to keep things interesting, Richie will be performing drums but only on select tracks

Adrian Smith confirmed lead vocals on Aces High for leg 2

something interesting I noticed just now. I thought the thumbwheel adjustment was introduced initially on just Adrian's green Jackson in 2015-2016, and then eventually on his US production models (and potentially the SDX - I've seen a photo of an SDX with thumbwheel). But just saw this while...

Who do you think you are - a bassist bringing a tuner to a gig. Yikes

Yeah from what I gather the main heads send to the cabs on stage, which probably go to FOH, as well as maybe a ISO cab going to FOH - for Pooch so he can dial in his own effects for FOH. And separate to that, there is the IEM mix signals with stereo delays and so on, that are only for H's ears...

Ah yes on closer inspection I can see that now (was originally posting from my phone, but can see easier on my computer)

Davey’s rig now using Synergy modules… I wonder if back up, or integrated part of his main sound? Photo taken from Colins Instagram

Ironically I just saw it’s not on the stage on the most recent show (Stockholm)…

This video is such a good example of how intricate and dialed in, yet wild Nicko's playing is, even on a relatively straight-forward track (Wicker Man) - and especially when the band kicks in/pre-solo section, 'fierce' is the best way I can describe it! I feel like one of the most exhilarating...

I’m wondering what this ‘new’ pedal is on the right of Adrian’s pedalboard? Volume pedal? Expression pedal? If it’s a volume pedal (or expression pedal for volume), I thought maybe it is for middle section of Rime, doing the volume swells?

After listening a couple times I suspect it's Davey's - with headphones on it feels like his guitar parts are the most prominent. But it could also be an IEM mix for a crew member? As the guitars are still fairly well balanced

Do we know who's IEM mix this is?

Me heart says Nicko But my mind says Simon, Would love to have it with Nicko on a track as a feature/tribute to his legacy though, but I know Maiden are unlikely to do that.. maybe? Nicko as 'consultant' haha Realistically I think they'll do it with Simon, if they do another record.

It sounds like Steve & Adrian are singing in time together, and the rest of the band corrects themselves to suit - maybe adding in half an extra bar? I do wish they'd play it a bit quicker - feels very slow. I also wish Bruce would try IEMs... I feel like it's been very common on this tour for...
