To be fair I did comment that his sudden change in performance had to be something other than age, it was a huge change after only 7 months. At the time I expected an illness like the flu, or a back injury.

I'd imagine releasing it before the tour would help ticket sales rather than after. All depends on the format, how it's released etc.

For a farewell tour I'd expect Run to the Hills or Hallowed to close.

https://www.facebook.com/share/v/i2uyJZ4N49q3girB/ The band just released their summer collection, everything in the video is Powerslave themed. A hint for next year?

To be honest it really just comes across as trolling at this point. I can't imagine spending all my time posting about something I clearly don't like anymore. I'll be putting him on ignore, I would encourage others do the same.

Honestly I have to agree. I'm all for lively discussion and people expressing their opinions, but the CONSTANT "the sky is falling! Everything is terrible! Maiden are doomed" is just getting so fucking tiresome.

He's definitely using the word set interchangeably with setlist there.

I hope that Kevin posting about the Maiden live albums is a hint that he'll be mixing the new one. Though I'd be happy with Pooch doing it too. As long as it isn't Newton. I think the talk of the ATG artwork being a new album/song hint is still a bit of a stretch. But interesting speculation...

Some videos here. He's playing very well. https://blabbermouth.net/news/watch-nicko-mcbrains-titanium-tart-kicks-off-july-2024-florida-tour-in-sanford

There's been a bit of discussion in the interviews thread. But my take is that it's meaningless. https://forum.maidenfans.com/threads/iron-maiden-news-links-and-interviews.19883/page-300#post-1058273

That's not a clue about anything.

That is an Olympic level of stretching. It would involve Maiden writing a new song/album before the future past tour started, creating an artwork with a hidden reference so that they can reveal it later. Not a chance. It's bad when there so little going on in the Maiden camp that people resort...

I think it's hard to call without them having said anything about the tour. For now I'd say 90% bog standard greatest hits set with a couple of curve balls thrown in.

That was a good read. For the most interesting bit was this: I know Steve has mentioned just becoming a studio band after retiring from touring, but maybe if Bruce is interested too there's more chance it would actually happen.

Yeah Bruce seems to be running out of a bit of vocal steam the last few songs. Dropping a half or full step would really suit his voice these days.

Anyone who believes in God is by definition NOT an atheist...

Honestly other than having to change the high notes at end of each chorus that sounds fine to me. To sound that good when you have a cold is really impressive.

Normally he teases that with something like "we'll see you in a muddy field in Derby"

Hearing Nicko rolling down the toms at the end of RTTH really put a smile on my face. It's tough hearing the songs without their usual fluid drums, but I think some of this is down to playing alongside an orchestra rather than your bandmates you've spent 40+ years playing with. Really keen to...

The Mountbatten gig is now premiering on YouTube. Not sure how far in Nickos appearance is.
