I read a discussion on Reddit that irritated me. I am not sure if it is allowed to copy it in here but if you don't believe me, I can do that. The commentators write that Dave seemed so unhappy having to tour, to be on stage, had often rolled his eyes in frustration, also directed at Simon. Of...

Yes, us maybe, but on other social media, where more casual fans comment, a lot of them believe they will retire. Even the" Dave is unhappy, he wants Maiden to come to an end" is still discussed. I mention it in the other thread. I personally lean more and more toward thinking Steve's remarks...

I wouldn't want to live or work in Florida either. The heat and humidity outside and inside I often found it much too cold.

Yes, that could also be a possible interpretation. I thought the rest of the world shows were meant.

Did Nicko really mean that he didn't want to record another album? I thought he rather meant why it had been organised like that, in Europe in winter?

Don't ever apply to my company with that attitude! :D No, really, don't take every little remark so seriously, as criticism, nit-picking... Back to the topic: I also start to doubt that more shows are going to be announced. Wouldn't that have happened already?

Sure (I am a lady by the way). I just find some assumptions plausible because of hints and things band members said, and sometimes I don't understand how people arrived at them. For example that "The band clearly have no desire to return to the studio.", with Bruce's interest in a new Maiden...

No hate of course, but I really don't understand how you can know this, without sitting in their heads or having access to the devices where they might have recorded new song ideas. Would you want Bruce to stop his solo touring too?

I just had an idea: if it's true that Steve feels this stress/pressure, wouldn't it totally make sense to want a whole year (2027) this time? (where he doesn't have to worry about much, only the new album?

You could buy a ticket insurance and then claim the announcent has made you very sick? ;) I agree with Hendrik. I put Iron Maiden in the suggestions for the Wacken survey I get every year (just because I always do), but if they don't play any major festivals in Germany on their tour of...

It was a joke, but maybe we should start wondering if they really need money? :blink:

Uh, I think Bruce would not like your mother discussion. If woman treat men like that, they perceive them as ancient. :bigsmile:

If the social media posts are true, the billboard was seen in Cardiff, London, Birmingham. So it was not meant as a hint where the show will take place. Maybe it will be in many cities in the coming days, just as advertisement for the show.

But it is a fact that the moderators are intervening. I also find it all a bit ridiculous. I wish the city had been named and the mystery was just what kind of special show it is.

Now you have of course made us curious. What embarrassing things did he say?

No, you are not the only one. Simon's playing had a positive effect on their live performance, now I want to see its effect on their studio work. I have always liked Nicko, but I have never understood his sense of humour. I don't think he is funny, totally unpopular opinion. Somehing like...

I think we have no clue. Because of their age, they doing this grueling tour? They should be doing shorter tours then. The demand would still be there in 2027. They could have played festivals in Europe with the same show in 2027, also additional cities. A lot of fans prefer a third leg over...

Steve (or someone else) has made a terrible mistake with his investment funds and his mates are helping out? Just a joke. (But who knows, I find it all odd.)

People are so obsessed with their retirement. Steve does not want a new album, 2026 is their last tour: Therefore the end of Iron Maiden? A break is something where you continue after. And, indeed, a break from the road. Interesting.

I have a feeling what will be announced soon are not the initial plans. It made so much sense to believe world tour 2025/2026 meants shows in Europe in 2025, then the rest. I believe that there is something that has changed in the meantime.
