Blood on the World's Hand, that would be a cool song for the audience with Steve's bass intro and everything, and I think Bruce would be able to improve the vocal melody. More than 95 % of them would not recognize the song though. But many people going to see Maiden this year haven't heard...

Ordered the new live album on CD recently, along with the last two parts of the Infinite Intanglement trilogy, which I missed out on. And it was not a bad choice to put Fortunes of War in the set for that live record, as that is a track Maiden will never perform again. On a sidenote, Look for...

And then in 2008, when he had Blaze as a guest on his radio show, he told him that he thought his Silicon Messiah album was a really good record, and that it was stronger than what that he did with Maiden. Bruce was not wrong about that!

Out of the Silent Planet, the multiple layers of vocals made it a very "studio sounding" song, Bruce could not recreate that with just one voice live.

- Janick gives an account of performing for PlayClassics! audiences. ;)

Bruce played a clean guitar on Revelations on the Powerslave tour, so that they could replicate one part more accurately. Janick has always played that part in later years though.

From 2011 and onwards, Dave Murray has played the intro lead melody to Blood Brothers with his distorted lead tone, instead of using a clean tone. Compare En Vivo and Live Chapters version with studio and Rock in Rio for example. He did the same last year.

Adrian Smith added a short guitar solo to Journeyman when it was performed live (it can be heard on Death on the Road).

Sign of the Cross has never had any clean guitars, except during the intro and the interlude with the choir vocals, when performed live. That gives some parts a totally different sound.

Janick is sounding really good, taking those first lead melodies in Hell on Earth. Then at the end, it is him and Adrian combined. Maybe a tour like this will fuel the Janick bashing a little bit more again though, like The Early Days Tour and Somewhere Back in Time Tour, but there's room for...

The band that wrote the songs on Silicon Messiah (and Tenth Dimension) can be seen performing in this video. Blaze (and some fans) seem to have forgotten their contributions in recent years though, with making up a story about that the prime Silicon Messiah material consisted of some lost...

With Blaze: Sign of the Cross, Lord of the Flies, Man on the Edge, Fortunes of War, The Aftermath, Blood on the World's Hand, The Edge of Darkness. The last 3 never were not performed on the Virtual XI tour, while Fortunes of War was played at the first few gigs, then dropped. With Bruce: Sign...

It is mentioned in Blaze's biography that Nicko played some recordings captured from the soundboard on the Virtual XI tour to Steve (Blaze had a couple of very rough performances on that tour, due to the demanding song set and some times hectic concert schedule). That, in combination with Rod...

Good audio. I really like Dave's new Stratocaster btw, it's a bit reminiscent of his 80's ESP Strat, which he used on Maiden England.

Janick played his parts very well on that one. That sounded excellent. He even added some pinch harmonics at 3:18 - 3:19.
