    The Future Past Tour 2024

    I wholeheartedly agree with you. Let Nicko be the legend he is, but in retirement that he deserves. The other boys are in an amazing shape performance wise, so it should be for the benefit of the band.

    Playing fast without groove and speeding up at the same time is way worse than slowing down a bit to maintain groove in a song. I think every musician would agree with this point.

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    I don´t know if this has been discussed before, but the tempo here is absolutely brutal and Nicko is speeding up the whole song. In the solo section, you can see Dave making a moderate mistake, but Adrian absolutely butchers the solo and cannot phrase the notes because of the ferocious tempo. In...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    Got 2 standing tix to Prague with the collector laminates. Can´t wait! I remember the price for PRG 2023 was around the same - 2100 CZK a ticket.

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    He probably wants to build his solo career up, because Iron Maiden are very near their end as a touring band.

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    I hope Nicko will play recordings of the latest gigs to Steve and co. in order to finally fire Bruce from the band.

    Replacing Nicko?

    But Mickey Dees style wouldn´t fit Maiden at all... He has absolutely different groove.

    Run For Your Lives Tour: Which Songs from No Prayer for the Dying and Fear of the Dark Are in the Setlist?

    I feel the same way about it, but it´s one of their most popular songs. Hell, it´s even the last song to really become a setlist staple. It wasn´t played for only one tour (Early Days 2005) in the last 32 years. Getting rid of it is sadly impossible even though TFP Tour performances were and...

    Replacing Nicko?

    If Nicko couldn´t do 2025 tour, they will use a replacement drummer, because cancelling a whole tour just a few months before the start would be too much of a financial loss. Also, as much as I love Nicko, he is just done... There is no way he can do the 80s catalogue justice one year from now...

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    Drifter is the ultimate rock & roll song by Iron Maiden. It is a pure gem! I am really sad you do not get it. :( Back to topic... I am very curious if the drums performances would improve this year!

    It seems to me he is kinda preparing us for the retirement of Nicko with the "Then we will see what happens." and "next year who knows!"

    The Future Past Tour 2024

    Yes, It´s the best encore closer in Maiden history! I would love to to hear it live once as I was 9 in 2005 and couldn´t make it to a show . :D

    I would love if they swapped Celts for TTAL!

    I hope 2MTM is never gonna return to the set. It always sounded boring to me live + Bruce never ever nailed the chorus live.

    Iron Maiden Tour 2025 - Discussion

    As much as I love Hallowed, I think it´s time to let it go... Nicko isn´t gonna do it justice and Bruce... well, 2019 and 2022 proved that Bruce is not really capable of pulling that one off at a high standard anymore in original key, at least not near the end of the show.

    Bruce Dickinson

    Ressurection Men are... a bad song? :D Seriously... I wonder how the comic books are selling...

    Bruce Dickinson

    I was about to see Springsteen in Prague last Tuesday... I think that rescheduling the show won´t happen as I look on his tour shcedule. Anyways, both Bruces are doing the right thing for themselves!

    Iron Maiden Tour 2025 - Discussion

    Oh God!!! This is one of the best reunion era bootlegs! I absolutely love the raw sounds + the setlist was way better than in 2008. But to add to the 2025 discussion, I really hope we won´t be treated with Aces High again.

    Most tortured rhyme in a Maiden song?

    Well I always liked a lot of Steve´s lyrics. They are quite thought provoking sometimes. Almost 9 years after release, I still couldn´t get past the "Climb like a monkey" verse. It´s on par with lirycs to Charlotte and sounds so stupid. Anyways for Charlotte... I prefer Paul´s spin on the song...
