Dave was fantastic yesterday, all his solos were amazing, while Adrian's were not fluid at all. Bruce butchered two songs, The Number of the Beast and Ace's High. I agree the venue is way too large, and I really hope to see them in a more "intimate" setting for the album tour.

Any gig from the Killers tour. But the idea of reliving a gig I had attended is pretty appealing too: Paris 1986 was great.

In retrospective, it's nice to have such an album in their discography: it brings diversity and shows thats, no matter how big they were then, they had not lost all spontaneity. They (Steve at least) felt the urge to release a more direct album after not playing for a year. At the time, I would...

"self plagiarism" is very strange concept. A composer is perfectly entitled to reuse his own ideas in another context if he thinks it works. It's not only bad memory or laziness. I really wouldn't mind Harris writing a song entirely based on former ideas, as long as the dynamics works. How many...

Given his absence from the last British Lion tour, I thought he had retired. Happy he didn't.

You will have to get accustomed to Ghost's relentless irony and cynism :D . This man believes in nothing , and I hope you are not a British Lion fan:p

Obviously, I agree Maiden is a greater band than Sabbath. However, I don't view their career in terms of "eras". Several members of this forum convincingly showed that the reunion era was in germ in Virtual XI, and I'm more convinced by an interpretation of their production in terms of cycles...

Thank you. The real notice is "Iron Maiden voted greatest metal band of all time ahead of Black Sabbath". Metallica were never a serious contender for the title.

Steve and Dave need a few sport sessions :innocent: And Mrs Smith is less enjoyable to watch without all those Instagram filters.

I don't know. I've never seen him but onstage. They all get shorter with age. I'm 52 and this is stunning. Steve may be short but he such charisma and self confidence that when he enters a room, he looks much taller.

No. I'm 175 cm, I've stood numerous times next to Steve, and he is significantly shorter. I'd say 170.

For me, nothing can surpass Rome's Pantheon. Both externally, with the surprising association of a rectangular porch and a circular room, and internally, with the superb color marbles, the niches, and all the historical layers that are represented here. I paid a visit to it 8 days ago, and that...

I was just pointing at an inconsistency: voting a songwriter, and a song by his band, but that he has not written. And TWotW is not in the same league as the Harris' tracks.

Steve Harris as the best songwriter (something I agree with), but The Writings on the Wall voted the best song ;). I assume the votes were shared between two of the four Harris's songs.

I don't feel the same about this song, but I can perfectly understand you. This is exactly how I feel when I listen to recent Priest and Dream Theater stuff.

He would have done a great job on the whole album I think. Invaders, the second part of Run to the Hills, even Hallowed. Paul once was a fantastic singer, not as limited in his range as some say. I think the the first song Harris wrote which doesn't suit DiAnno's voice at all is Where Eagles Dare.

The two shows added in Latvia and Lituana are the best possible response. That's great to come and play there and now.

Thanks a lot for those (convincing) developments. I had the same feel with Dream of Mirrors and Blood Brothers, but never thought about the whole album in that perspective.

Would you please provide a link to your previous statments? I'd love to read more on your opinion on that matter.

You are right. I did not. I don't give a shit about the tee-shirts (I got loads of them and I always wear the same one at gigs), but the I find the digital magazines a hard pill to swallow. If they tour smaller venues playing Senjutsu in its entirety, my renewal will prove useful, otherwise...
