I am not surprised they are touring Europe again, especially with a lot of festivals. Didn't I even write that here? I have lost track of my comments :) (but it is not that important so I will not search for the comment now).

But seriously: Do you understand why he says that? I don't. Isn't it a bit odd? It was my wife! :D

Okay, I will rephrase that. I thought it was clear what I meant: songs from Bruce Dickinson solo albums, not songs from Iron Maiden albums. Bruce himself calls it an Iron Maiden song.

I don't like this approach at all. It makes no sense to me. I want to hear rare/never played Maiden songs played by Maiden. If he additionally wants to tour his solo music, then he should play (rare/never played) Bruce Dickinson songs.

But what kind of evidence are you looking for? There will not be an official statement that contains anything other than nice words. Nor is there likely to be a public dispute. Nicko's last interview, which many found somewhat surprising (and I am hesitant to just tell so many people that...

For CH/DE/AT I would guess Hannover, Munich, Köln (because there were shows in Zürich and Vienna this year).

Why???? I would never take someone seriously who is at an event where Jordan Belfort of all people wants to teach how to be successful. Do you really think Bruce needs that money?

Köln?

And this after Bruce has recently repeatedly and very clearly said that Iron Maiden still have many plans. Now they are supposed to suddenly hint that the 2026 tour could be a farewell tour. So that the fans feel really fooled. I think Iron Maiden needs to realise that they can say whatever...

That wasn't a smart interview from Nicko! He manages to sound too old-fashioned for Maiden. Who would have guessed that I would ever have that thought about Nicko? That's quite an achievement. And yes, what could be more hilariously funny than pointing out the mistakes of others in the band? No...

Honestly, it has always confused me that he seems so proud of her. But surely he knows what he's doing (I hope)?

I wasn't so convinced that Simon Dawson was the right choice, but yes, I'm changing my mind. I like how he stabilises and energises the band.

Germans are in. But definitely EU, EU citizenship is so useful, especially for musicians.

I'm sure Bruce wanted Aces High in that position. Nobody persuaded him or even forced him. I don't know what's going on in his head of course, but maybe something like he felt very fit and wanted to prove he could do it?

That is a good point. In the retirement discussions it always seems like some band members are starting to do solo projects lately. Also, we know that there will be another solo album from Bruce. Whether there will be another Smith/Kotzen album is not even clear.

Yes, if someone makes something up that the band never said, then I will play truth cop, because if we just make stuff up they never said, there is no point in discussing the band. And if I am wrong, then cite the interview where the band talked about Dave wanting to spend more time with his...

From fan fiction about “Dave wants to be with his grandchild instead of on tour” to “The band has spoken about Dave and his grandchildren”. :facepalm: Some fans simply ignore what really comes across from the band, e.g. in interviews. And that's quite clearly that they want to continue with...

I have this photo: No work on Bruce's eyecolour necessary. ;)
