    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    I hear still hear the cries of fans who spotted it on the lighting desk during the tour promo video. They echo throughout eternity…

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    As much as I would have loved to have heard Infinite Dreams, there has to be a good reason it has been dropped twice. Either Bruce finds it hard to sing or the groove is hard to establish. It is one of those songs that treads the line tempo wise. It’s either too fast for Bruce to sing or it...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    I think it’s a great setlist. Other than Aces High, I think the band really knocked it outer park with this one. Sure I preferred the setlists for LOTB and TFP tours, but I feel they were aimed at more hardcore fans like me. This is a just a big mix up of the original 3 History tours and...

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    That’s a cool interview. I am glad he still has a passion for his old guitars.

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    I might be controversial here, but I have never had any interest in seeing the guys bust out old guitars onstage. I can watch old videos from the 80s if I want to see Adrian’s original Jackson. At their age, I just want them to see them playing something comfortable, that stays in tune and...

    5 Reasons Iron Maiden Won the Long Game

    Also being a band who is not composed of complete twats helps.

    The Concert Thread

    I enjoyed the gig. I have seen them a few times. Their biggest problem is how patchy their catalogue is post-Argus. IMO they need to play more songs on their setlist and cut out the songs that are full of guitar-wankery. I don’t need to hear an 87-minute version of the Phoenix with 78 solos...

    The Book of Souls: General album discussion

    I think Bruce missed a golden opportunity to record his solo album between the years of 2013 and 2014. He could’ve easily done it after the Maiden England tour in 2013 and before the summer tour in 2014. I suppose the problem would’ve been its release would’ve clashed with the Book of Souls...

    Blaze Bayley

    Born as a Stranger on that album is phenomenal. Jeff’s drumming is not of this world!

    The Concert Thread

    I think this is the year that I have been to the least amount of gigs and also played the least amount of gigs since I started in bands when I was 12. I have only played three gigs this year and I have only been to 2 gigs this year. I went to see Iron Maiden at London Stadium in June and...

    I still love this album.

    Awesome! I didn’t see Bedford on the list.

    Blaze Bayley

    Looks like Blaze tour dates for the UK next year are floating around online at the moment. The only show in the east of England is in Norwich. That sucks for me as I would quite like to see the show.

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    Despite being an avid bass guitar player, I am so glad that I have no interest in collecting instruments let alone ones from my favourite band. I can’t believe the prices of these. I think I’ll just stick to my Stingray.

    Run For Your Lives World Tour 2026 Rumours and Speculation

    At Download in 2022, I had the choice of The Deftones or Megadeth before Maiden. I chose the chicken and rice food truck.

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    I’m sure I will enjoy whatever gig I go to. All I want is for them to go out with dignity and in a high. If members start being swapped out and they simply tour classics for the remainder of their days, I would be disappointed. But if that is what they want to do, fair enough.

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    I’m sure they will come up with some awesome tour concepts post-2027, and I will go and see them. However I fear a decline in performances over time, especially with the band refusing to downtune. Bruce can’t keep up singing these songs in the original key. It is doing him or the band no...
