Can I Play With Madness may be the worst sounding live Iron Maiden recording. What the fuck is that, it sounds like it's been recorded on a cup and a string.

https://x.com/IronMaiden/status/1735002933966544918?s=20 So not a full show by the sounds of it.

Maybe it was just me, but I just thought it was an incredibly lifeless performance and Klaus sounded like he was struggling. The crowd didn't really help either, they were giving nothing back, at least where I was stood. I'm glad I got to see them at least once, but I don't think I'd see them...

If I wasn't burnt by their god awful performance at Bloodstock in 2019, I'd want to go. But I can't imagine they'd be any better five years older.

I'm glad I managed to take my dad to see Kiss this year, he'd never seen them before and he thought it was one of the best shows he's ever seen. That's good enough for me.

I've only just gotten round to watching the video. Christ, did Neil Breen direct it? Lmao Bloody good song though.

I thought the story was that Nicko told Steve that he wanted to play ATG with his band, but he wasn't allowed to because Maiden hadn't played it live yet. Which was probably a part of the impetus for it to be included in this year's set.

I could imagine Steve preferring the first take, rather than cutting numerous takes, all in the name of "capturing the live feel". So he just goes "yeah that's good enough", and then that performance ends up on the album warts and all.

It was a B-Side from the deluxe box set edition of Meliora, and was only released as a vinyl single. It's only just been released on streaming. Probably one of their best songs, why it was left off the album beggars belief.

Some heavy shit that :wub::wub:

Out with The Prisoner and Can I Play With Madness, and in with Revelations and Wrathchild.

I'm not even *that* bothered about a new album, I'd much prefer them to spend what years they have left on the road focusing on songs that haven't seen the light of day for years. The tours since 2016 has shown that there's an appetite for songs that are not the usual suspects.

As much I think this tour has been a gift for Maiden fans, I really do not want it to extend past 2024.

I thought Aerosmith had jacked it in after cancelling all their recent dates?

I'm waiting for an integral part of the project to be only accessible via a pinball machine.

Over £40 is a bit steep honestly. I was expecting closer to £30ish.

It'll be more entertaining than his 'key note' business snooze fests...I mean speeches.

One of Bruce's best performances this decade. I can't believe this man is 65 years old.

Nottingham and Manchester it is then! I was so convinced he was only going to be doing Download. Thank god.

Even Judas Priest are charging £80ish now. I paid £45 for their last UK tour, and that was only in 2015.
