I just went through the isolated tracks from Birmingham 2023, and this has to be the worst Iron Maiden has sounded since 1998. Do you think Nicko will be replaced or at least play only part of the shows in the future?
Bruce only performed Afraid to Shoot Strangers during the 1992-1993 and 2012-2013 tours. It's been underplayed, so it would be amazing if they brought it back again!
The Future Past tour has been a tough listen. I had planned to catch a few shows in the US this year, but the drumming has been a real letdown for me. Those isolated drum tracks from Birmingham really tear me apart. Back during the Virtual XI tour, the disappointment with Blaze's performances (I...

Yupp, no tour fully devoted to a new album since 2016/2017. Happy I was a fan back when tours were mainly based on new albums. A Matter of Life and Death era, new album every third year and well thought out history tours in between - peak reunion era.
I'm going with Tailgunner, Bring Your Daughter and Afraid to Shoot Strangers! Excluding Fear of the Dark because this will be a hits heavy tour anyway :)
I think the biggest surprise for us is the inclusion of songs from No Prayer for the Dying and Fear of the Dark on the upcoming tour. For the Run For Your Lives tour, which tracks from these albums do you think will be in the setlist? I believe the most likely number is two, but I’ve set a max...
I believe 'Afraid to Shoot Strangers' would have been more likely to be played if it hadn't been performed back in 2014. Without the 2014 performances it would have been the first time since 1998! Then again, they had two Blaze tracks for both LOTB setlist versions. So who knows..
Bring Your Daughter... and Fear of the Dark from the '90s albums is a done deal, but adding more than that from NPFTD and FOTD would be one of the biggest setlist surprises in Iron Maiden history.

Description: Bob Sawyer quote: "I had also been in a band named Nitro with Den Wilcock who by 1976 was fronting Iron Maiden. In December 1976 I was no longer...
With the right vocal approach, this is how it could have sounded in the '90s:
The industry's secret was that the company where Blaze reported costs for Iron Maiden was incorporated on November 16th, 1993, so most of us fact checked this back then.
Let me start by saying that I have a lot of love for Blaze. However, his biggest challenge was his lack of technical preparation. Although he had time to train before hitting the road with the band, he struggled with some fundamental aspects of singing right from the start. His vocal range...
