I also appreciate the clarity on Leanas post. At least she's not actively pro concentration camps. This thread has also drifted way off topic, maybe best to take this to the politics thread if people want to continue?

I also found the notice about the phones worked well. Very few phones out throughout the gig, only occasionally when Eddie came out did the numbers creep up.

Yeah Aces was the best it's been this year, but he's still struggling on the second half of the verse and can't hit the high notes in the chorus anymore. He's picked a different note in the chorus so that sounds fine, but it's definitely not perfect.

Glasgow was very good. Some timing slip ups from the band here and there. Bruce was on great form. Rime was HEAVY! Simon I've not really clicked with. Really went in giving him a fair chance but I just don't think he's a good fit.

Yes. Supporting concentration camps is intolerable. How the fuck is that not obvious?

Seen some footage of Aces High in London. Certainly seems to be Bruce's best performance so far. Crossing my fingers for tomorrow.

We don't normally get a Glasgow shirt as far as I remember?

Like I can see why they're expensive, it's not a generic heat transfer print thing that's only mass produced by a machine. There's people actually spraying that stain and doing the distressing work etc. Thst said they still look pretty bad and I certainly wouldn't buy one.

No ones realistically going to veto recording an album. It's not like they're banging one out every year. It's been 6 years since they've been in a studio together.

Nice to see that Nicko is still keeping at it.

That is fucking horrendous. What an absolute embarrassment.

The Nordic shirts are always great! Shame we never get a Scotland one.

Got to be Simon. I love Nicko, he's my favourite drummer of all time, but he can't play to the standard that Maiden need anymore.

Hey I'll happily take joint 1st! I assumed it was going to be a pretty safe hits setlist and starting with early days stuff made sense. The rest was kinda pure luck!

I find the "why didn't they play more deep cuts?" discussion fascinating. It was really obvious that this was going to be a hits tour. If anything I'm quite surprised how many epics made the setlist when they could have just rammed the entire set with singles that would have gone down better...

He did mention doing something with the drummers from last years Mountbatten gig in London, so if there's any chance of him doing something it might be that.

That was a while ago, I imagine he's back home in Florida by now. I can't see him having any involvement really, he was struggling to play last year and I don't think it will have got any better.

I'd love to go in blind, but with a month between the first gig and Glasgow it would be impossible for me, it's too long a time to completely avoid the forum, socials and most difficult of all Youtube. I'm busy tonight but will try to jump on the thread when I can to see how things are shaping up.

Personally I've never liked the intro tape into bang thing. The sound from the intro is always better than the live mix that follows, and it's a bit one dimensional when almost EVERY tour starts like that.

Can we stop with the baseless unsubstantiated rumour ffs.
