I actually first time now listen to their covers (best of the b sides), I actually think it's a shame they didn't continue recording covers. Metallica and Dream theater have their "cover culture" and I think it's great, Maiden really Maidenfies these songs and I would really like this album to...

Well yeah, I think after 17 albums, safe route is the way for any band. I prefer longer storytelling epic songs, so I favor Maiden any day over JP. JP' safe route is short kick ass songs (which are mostly not so kick ass imo, but talking objectively here). Contrary, JP made longer songs - entire...

I honestly think it's safer for Maiden to go "longer songs" route. With longer songs there is more room for creativity (whether they use it or not), but woth shorter ones you kinda have to nail and main riff and chorus and solo to make it worth, otherwise it would become parody of their older...

It's a shame that Maiden won't change setlist for THE 50th anniversary show. Like, put more songs, or change it completely to put it out of RFYL frame would be cool, otherwise it really is just another Maiden show.

5. James Hetfield 4. John Petrucci 3. Zakk Wylde 2. Three amigos from Iron Maiden (yep, I'm taking all of them as one) 1. Randy Rhoads

I agree, but although they're story-telling band, they still made some songs that reflect on themselves - wasted years, blood brothers (indirectly became that), iron maiden (same as bb), coming home... Can't think of more now

Do you think Maiden have a sort of self-reflection or self-homage on their final album similar to Megadeth' final note, Ozzy' mr darkness? I think it would be really cool to have song about/that mentions Eddie - either as a part of their reflection on their legacy or a full song dedicated to his...

I mean it sure will be, I just hope they'll rightfully cover every album as they're all different and were made in different situations - good or bad.

No no, I say it works and is amazing for me, but that's just me, there are like milion fans who saw this show already and I'm sure majority can't that easily give another 100€ for same show. If I was in that scenario, I would probably save that money for next tour.

Yeah but when they went on a 2nd European run in 2014 they changed 2012/2013 setlist (made it boring). Knowing how they do it, they could change clairvoyant for the evil that men do and 2mtm change to revelations. Which something I don't want. If I could, I would change 2mtm for stranger and...

I mean, for me it wasn't, cause I'll probably see 1 of first 3 shows, so it's great for me, but some countries are seeing the same show twice.

Maybe they change it a bit who knows For DVD as long as it is focusing on their whole career with respective interviews, it's wort it. But if documentary is 2h long and 1h20min are about period until 90s or until Blaze era idk. Okay book could cover Blaze era more, though they didn't miss...

But then it seems that whole 50th anniversary celebration kinda flopped. We got book (which is amazing) and a tour that spans ⅕ od their career. No any reissues/special editions or anything

Didn't say that it won't be, it wasn't until now, hopefully they'll release it soon

As documentary was never released, will it be as a bonus content of upcoming DVD from this tour?

I think we're still getting a few tours. If Maiden once messed up with choice of countries they play in, that doesn't mean they'll stop touring. They can still change a song or two on setlist and make show "worth" seeing again. If Maiden fills these shows with 80% capacity, looking at their 50...

1. Powerslave 2. Seventh son of a seventh son 3. Somewhere in time 4. Brave new world 5. Dance of death List is missing my 6. and 7. place which are A matter of life and death and Senjutsu. These 7 are like THE 7 Maiden albums by which I listen the most and think they are straight 10/10. Have a...

Do you think book will be reissued the moment band retires? My prediction is that it will be around 60th anniversary, probably a bit before that. Just to complete their history, add extra 20 pages.

Does anybody here have a CD black box set with a book and first 8 Ozzy albums? I was looking for buying it as I really need some Sabbath in my collection. BS and Ozzy solo are on pair with Maiden as my favorite bands, but I was always distracted by other bands and never actually got any Sabbath...

Didn't know that, I just expected a deepcut.
