    I am being a little sarcastic. Bruce is the main reason why the set lists have been better since 2016. 2011-2014 was a little stale IMO. As far as I am aware, he is the one behind the more interesting song inclusions.

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    Good to see Jan using a Radial splitter as well. The man has good taste!

    it’s utterly baffling. He probably couldn’t be arsed to learn it considering he had to remember ATG, CSIT and SIASL.

    IRON MAIDEN: 'Infinite Dreams - The Official Visual History' Book Due In The Fall

    I don’t know how many times we have to drag up these recordings of Blaze being out of his depth. He took the job in the world’s greatest metal band (wouldn’t you if you were offered it?) and they did bugger all to accommodate his vocal range. You can’t slag someone off for doing their best in a...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    Slow ticket sales are a result of the band not willing to change the show up one bit. I know some of my esteemed fellow board members are going again, but why would you pay more money to see a show that you have already seen? Fair play if you are up for that, but most fans will have caught them...

    I went to Florida Disney in August for two weeks. It was like being hugged by a hot bath for the whole holiday.

    Who got 'The X Factor'?

    Here’s how I sum up the left overs. Judgement Day Great energy and riff Terrible chorus and the verse is a bit shit too. Justice of the Peace A cool arrangement with a great post chorus Terrible lyrics I Live My Way Great arrangement Terrible singing and chorus I can see whey they were...

    I have to disagree with Nicko. I would take a cold Parisian winter over Florida’s humidity any day of the week (and yes, I have been to both!)

    They haven’t been in the studio as a band for nearly 7 years. I think that is pretty good evidence to suggest that they don’t have a particular desire to be in the studio together.

    18th Studio Album discussion

    I am repeating myself, but I am in the view that they should retire after this tour. I am not being a negative Norman, but I have my reasons. The band clearly have no desire to return to the studio. I believe that the reunion era songwriting tropes have been exhausted. Hell on Earth is probably...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    The more I think about the Knebworth gig, I wish they had just announced 2 shows in the O2 Arena. They could have used the reasoning of ‘We wanted to give the crowd in London the chance to experience this tour inside’. I am not convinced Knebworth will sell lots of tickets, but I want to be...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    Absolutely disgusting. Regarding Knebworth, it’s too rich for my blood. Oh well. It’s been a good 20 years of seeing them live. Even though this place is just down the road from me, I can’t really justify these prices and neither can my mates. Maybe they will slash the prices closer to the date.

    They are probably still paying off the studio time bill for Chinese Democracy.

    I’m in a similar position. Young family, new house coming up and just the general cost of things.

    To be honest, I am really looking forward to seeing this in a high res print.

    Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

    If it’s Knebworth, I might consider it. I only live up the road in St Neots.

    18th Studio Album discussion

    Here are my thoughts. By the start of next year, it will be 7 years since they last recorded an album. They don’t seem in a rush… I don’t think it’s a coincidence that their album input has decreased in the last 20 years. Not only are they getting older, but it lines up perfectly with the...
