I have a love&hate relationship with Can I Play With Madness. It's the first song I've heard from Maiden, cause I was a pop music fan (A-ha, Duran Duran, Madonna etc) at the time and that song entered Top 10, and so I heard it, loved the song and the video, give a chance to listen to Seventh Son...

it's impossible to fit this period into one setlist with 15 songs, so the only way to please the dieahard fans (to a point) is to rotate some songs, at least 2 or 3. "all hits" setlist won't please anyone (maybe the festival goers only). so there must be some deep cuts.

nice to see that the Shadow of the Gods will be added. (somehow it's interesting that he announced this before hand.)

Always loving Blaze with Maiden setlists but I also wanna see him more with his own solo and with Wolfsbane in a proper tour. Wolfsbane Save the World album is so underrated. And it's not on streaming platforms, I don't get it. It's as good as the early Wolfsbane albums.

Since Maiden played flight of icarus and rotated Revelations, Prisoner and Powerslave, the only maiden song I'd like to hear in a bruce set is Flash of the Blade. And I know it won't happen. :(

So we can erase Revelations from the Run for your Lives guesses. I think this time Bruce will play a more "mainstream" setlist, with 1-2 Maiden songs and 2-3 Tattooed Millionaire songs.

I remember voting too, but first it was anounced as it is for the game. That's why songs like Futureal were chosen over many classics or fan favorites. Then they said it it's also for the tour, then whole the forum got angry, everybody was saying, if i know it was for the tour, i would have...

this bruce quote from classic rock mag made me somehow uneasy: "You want the greatest hits, right? Well, we can’t do them all, because we’re going to stop at a certain album. It’s the greatest hits up till then. But the production is going to be out of this world. And we’ve got a set-list that’s...

Speaking in terms of overrated finding culture, it's clear: fear of the dark. third number one album of maiden in UK charts. one of the best selling albums of the band. Yet it's obviously weaker then the golden year albums (first 7). Even the big classic fear of the dark was like a weak epic...

sth they havent done before: what about changing the setlist in every concert like metallica : ) or play 16-17 from a pool of 30+ songs. that would be really "the setlist for the ages" every night!

if they didn't announce Simon shortly after, people and the magazines would write many guesses which includes famous drummers like mangini and all, conspiracies would follow etc. so pr-vise it's right to announce the new drummer a day after to shut this ongoing gossips. let's see what will be...

have you seen Samurai Eddie rises his sword to Nicko and then bows down, very cool: (around 1.29.00 mark)

oops, sorry then.

Nicko played in Maiden as a substitute drummer while Clive was away for his father's funeral. edit: this post was clarified as "false news" :)

some thoughts and notes: they probably tried Simon, made an audition, probably when nick had his stroke, last year. because the tour was announced and they should have had a b-plan. so now i think they can play faster songs like be quick or be dead. i wonder if they can play a little longer or...

we all know that the drummer of British Lion will replace Nicko, arent we? :) joke aside, he is a really good drummer. Simon Dawson. and if he gets the job, he'll drum for BL and IM, so a huge minus from tour costs will make Rod happy :)

hard task, let's try Iron Maiden - Remember Tomorrow (many tears were shed) Killers - Purgatory (what a lovely song) TNOTB - Hallowed (well... no need to explain...) PoM - Flight of Icarus (probably best short song of Maiden) Powerslave - Powerslave (It was Rime for many years but nowadays...

this is a great long new interview / also podcast in streaming services by Rich Roll. though i'm at the first 15 minutes :)

I especially loved how he phrase "our friend our band member"... not ex or old band member, just band member. that says a lot. <3

There are so many. Most of them are in this article: https://loudwire.com/rockers-tribute-iron-maiden-paul-dianno/ I think one of the most important ones is Geezer Butler's tribute, which is not in the article, but here: https://www.instagram.com/geezerbutler/
