I think not. Why? Because they announced they're taking a break from the road, shared a new band picture with Simon, and still deliver live. Now the whole announcement and dates of this tour feels like a last (major) tour (remember Bruce said they won't do a farewell tour, Steve isn't sure...

Didn't Bruce say he always wanted to play there before?

Unfortunately, I won't fall for that again. I wish it's true because it makes sense. Btw, the colors of the poster are like a nod to Live At The Rainbow art. I think they will want to play RIR. Probably without a live stream because of the already mentioned recording of the Paris show. This...

I love how enthusiastic Bruce is about new music (maybe more about his solo stuff, but still) - but this response from Steve is very disappointing to me... We don't know how the other members feel, but to say he haven't got time is not serious at all. Touring is more fun for them, but they have...

Simon an official band member now? Found it on the net now when the new leg of the tour was announced.

Steve: We are all loving this RUN FOR YOUR LIVES TOUR. The fans have been amazing, the set list is perfect for the 50th Anniversary, the show is arguably our best ever and ticket demand was incredible with pretty much everywhere sold out and over a million fans attending. So we all thought we...

That would be so unexpected, cool and worrying...

Good call (like Priest do too), but isn't that odd now, given their age. @Mosh was right, I never thought. Slowing down from now? Well we have to get used to it, but missing a whole year is ''like'' a 3rd leg of a same tour with a couple of changes. They only need 3 months, as they say. Is it...

So 2027 is a no touring year for Maiden. Very surprising. Could this mean recording the new album in early 2027 and releasing it in September of the same year with a tour starting in 2028. Like TBOS? Or recording in fall 2027 with a 2028 release. Releasing it in 2028 (but it should early or in...

I'm really happy about the Sofia date, in a stadium! But this leg of the tour is one of the least expected by me, unfortunately. Saying they will record the Paris show for a 2027 live release from the tour is great. No touring in 2027 is a big surprise for me! Rod says it's because of next...

https://blabbermouth.net/news/iron-maiden-members-become-album-champions-for-u-k-s-national-album-day-2025 Idk what this is (champions of National Album Day), but the comments by Bruce and Rod are worth it: Bruce: ''Albums matter. They always have, not just to MAIDEN but to all of the...

What changed is that this is their biggest tour and if they won't do a 3rd leg, another run of European shows makes sense. Big anniv, big tour. Idk if it's the full version, but the new tour poster with the references suggest that the set will be exactly the same, not that we didn't know it...

Maybe Bruce refused to rotate songs during this leg of the tour after all, to save songs. Aquarius is one of his best live songs, but it was probably dropped because it's one of his hardest songs to sing along with Book Of Thel (he compensate it later in the set with Gods, Alchemist, Tower and...

This ''behind the scenes'' is like a short TV special with some words from the Maiden crew, but no more. I think if Maiden release a live concert video from the tour, they should do their own and longer/detailed version. Like a special for this special tour, even without DVD's. It's not official...

I think Vision Of Atlantis' The Deep & The Dark is probably one of my favorite covers. It's a little more realistic and the background makes it all work. The colors work perfectly. Such ancient covers that tell a story are just perfect for me. Painkiller is cool and impactful, but it could have...

I was listening to ''Come What May'' now and, man, what an impactful chorus, classic melodic riff, and that cool instrumental section. Bring on the ancient-sounding stuff! A gem of a song. :ok:

Clear votes this round: Nostradamus - yes, too many songs and especially interludes, but most of the material is very strong, a bit different, more creative and interesting. Some songs are some of Priest's best. The Man Who Would Not Die - I wouldn't normally vote for an album in which I don't...

The 2nd leg is said to be big, so. And if they have some other plans for the fall after the tour... like in 2014 if the tour ends in September.

^Big thanks @Azas . Cool work. I liked some arts. All Maiden albums deserve such worlds with art. Senjutsu- all of them, so awesome Stratego- 3 Writing- 1 Lost World- 1 Days- 1 Time Machine- 2/3 Darkest Hour- 1 Celts- 1 Parchment- 1 Hell On Earth- 2 :ok:

I think as far as 90's fantasy cover goes, it's captivating. Could have been better? No doubt. Best, nope, but it's at least interesting. The colors work perfectly. Iconic sometimes doesn't mean that good. Definitely not for me.
