Bruce still sounds great. He can't shriek like he used to (he's not the "air raid siren" anymore), but he can hit the notes he needs to. All while he bounces around like a ball of energy up there.

Iron Maiden can never satisfy some of their fans: When they play newer songs, fans complain that they aren't playing classics. When they play the classics, those same fans complain that they heard those songs before.

Be Quick Or Be Dead From Here to Eternity Can I Play With Madness Afraid to Shoot Strangers Two Minutes to Midnight Man On The Edge The Clansman Number of The Beast Tailgunner Heaven Can Wait Bring Your Daughter... Fear of the Dark Iron Maiden Run To The Hills Hallowed Be Thy Name Sanctuary

I like those songs a lot and I can't speak poorly of all the great stuff he did back then with Maiden, but my god he sounds terrible.

You think is predictable?

How often over the years have they played Number of the Beast as an encore, where they dim the lights and play the spoken intro over the PA?

I think this is the most realistic setlist: I put question marks beside songs that haven't been confirmed, and put songs that they might play instead of them. Anyway, just the confirmed songs themselves will make this an awesome show.

That's kind of awesome. :D

I see on the sheet of paper, too.

You read my mind.

They should avoid instrumentals - so many of their songs have long instrumental breaks already. The only instrumental they should ever play, *if* they choose to play an instrumental, should be 'Transylvania' (or possibly 'Ghengis Khan', if they open the show with it).

I think Bruce wants to do it slower, and Steve wants to do it faster... or something to that effect. Anyway, they've been avoiding playing it for a long time, and I think they would've included it in one of their history tour set lists by now if they intended on revisiting it.

I doubt we'll see them play Flight of Icarus. As I understand the rumor, the band likes the song, except half the guys in the band want to play it with a faster tempo, and the other guys want to play it slower, like on the album. And this is a big sticking point with the guys and they can't...

The last tour, setlist.fm was updated as the concert progressed. That was kind of fun, sitting on the page during the first gig and seeing a new song on there every 10 minutes as I refresh the page.

I had a few problems hearing what Adrian was saying. It's like he was mumbling or not talking directly into the mic or something. Anyway, we got confirmation of two songs that will be performed on this tour. Both of them will be real treats. :)

This is a great album! Very little to whine about. The last time I was this immersed in a Rush album was 'Counterparts'. And this one is definitely getting better with each listen.

He sounded like he hit those same notes in 'The Final Frontier' and 'The Talisman' just fine on the last tour.

You better spoiler tag that.

I am afraid that you can't put too much stock into what they said. After all, before the North American leg of The Final Frontier tour, Bruce said the set list would cover the entire history of the band. That set list was all post-2000 material, save for 'Wrathchild', 'Fear of the Dark'...

We know that the topic of the song would be about either war or death.
