    Which b-sides show would you like to see officially released?

    Yes, a great recording. The b-sides were overdubbed and I'm sure they did it with the full thing because Blaze messed up a few lyrics that night!

    Doug Sampson

    The live album from a few years back is great!

    The very first Iron Maiden show

    I remember visiting St Nicks and Cart & Horses back in 2009. Very cool read!

    NO PRAYER FOR THE DYING - Your thoughts…

    In hindsight, it's crazy to think that at times, Maiden played six songs from No Prayer for the Dying live, while other times, they played seven songs from Virtual XI.

    The Oval 1998 - the longest Iron Maiden show ever

    Some critics claim that by 1998, Iron Maiden was past their prime, citing that they were out of breath and no longer at their best. However, they proved the naysayers wrong by delivering their longest performance ever that year. On April 22, 1998, they kicked off the Virtual XI World Tour with a...

    Paul Cairns (Mad Mac) played on The Soundhouse Tapes

    Not every day you have an actual former Iron Maiden member in the forum.

    NO PRAYER FOR THE DYING - Your thoughts…

    I absolutely love this album. It's such a shame it didn't get more exposure outside of the 1990-1993 setlists. It was incredible to hear some of it again during 'Give Me Ed 'Til I'm Dead' in 2003—the intro and the singalong were amazing. That tour was fantastic, and it really brought the songs...

    Adrian Smith

    Great second single. Both Black Light and White Noise has to be in a setlist in future tours. I know Wasted Years has been in the set for a while, but the Smith/Kotzen material is so strong so they could do a more obscure Maiden song. Gangland?

    Blaze Bayley

    Saw his Iron Maiden 30th anniversary tour last year. He is doing a special Iron Maiden set this year again. Hoping for fewer Virtual XI songs this time around, they almost played the full thing. Futureal, Clansman and Educated Fool would still be great. It's been a while since he did Blood on...

    Ed Hunter

    In terms of setlists yes. That was one of the best, to bad they haven't done a live album from that tour yet. Preferably from one of the shows that had Stranger in a Strange Land in it. But wasn't Ed Huntour basically the Virtual XI stage set?

    How will Simon Dawson change the look and sound of Maiden?

    Sometimes new members is great. Andy Sneap and Ritchie Faulkner have made Judas Priest sound the best they have since the '80s. However, I'm not sure if having an almost 70-year-old drummer is the right choice.

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    You dont want a 3 hour Blaze Bayley fronted Maiden gig and you dont want a 1h40mins greatest hits setlist. This is like trying to work out dinner with my girlfriend. Bruce is incredible, delivering outstanding performances on Clansman, Sign of the Cross, Lord of the Flies, Futureal, and Man on...

    Futureal

    Best live song used as b-side but not featured on an actual live album. Bruce and Adrian added some intensity to the song!

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    It's real! They had the base set and the second encore is basically either spare songs they performed on and off during the 1998 tour or simply stuff they played the tour before and happened to remember. Blaze talks about this in his book. I can get you some photos if you'd like? Heres one from...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    I don't see how this contradicts anything I've written! If you consider Iron Maiden at Globen to be your least intense show with the worst crowd reaction, that's your experience and I'm not taking that experience away from you. Intensity and fan reactions, especially among those close to you in...
