    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    we will get the Tree Eddie (Fear of the Dark), I think. and sorry but I cant see the obvious hint for 2 minutes in the poster, if it's the explosion in the back, come on? an explosion in the back is sth cliche or a classic fill for a design, not a hint. and the thing about the Slaughter in...

    Iron Maiden's management: What went wrong?

    who would you prefer? who else is like the 6th / 7th member of the band they manage? this is of course sometimes can be a bad thing in maiden's case there is mutual respect and a keen friendship between the band members and the manager. (sheriff of huddersfield etc...) do you see any other...

    Is the popularity of Wasting Love fabricated?

    People love rock ballads. So the song has an advantage. E tout le monde is megadeth's most popular 3rd song, nothing else matters is metallica's 2nd popular song. Angel is 9th most popular Priest song with 26 million listens.

    yeap very near to my guess list and this must be the ultimate average of all the guess lists, the skeleton/core of the tour... but since bruce said the first 30 minutes will blow our mind, there must be sth very surprising. to tame a land? sea of madness? weekend warrior? we'll see... :)

    Iron Maiden's management: What went wrong?

    I don't quite understand this title, Rod Smallwood has been a great manager throughout the band's history. I could only wish the video of Somewhere tour and another little thing: he could have controlled Blaze's image during Virtual. It was very awkward for Blaze to always wear worn-out black...

    I believe Die With Your Boots On will be there, it's one of those deep cuts written by three members, not being played since Early Days tour, have a happy and sparkle vibe and a positive message which can be see as an allegory to the ongoing ambition of one of the most touring bands ever. I...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    I agree and don't agree. I don't agree because it must be one of the factors in the equation. When someone's song is in the setlist, they probably gain an extra fee from that song's rights. So they must consider this factor too. But on the other hand, Steve is the boss, and his first...

    Btw have we talked about the first line of Tailgunner, which is: “Trace your way back 50 years” !!! Can this be a hint that the Tailgunner is the opening song :)

    the new fc shirt can be a hint that they'll play strange world or twilight zone or stranger in a strange land but not dune. sorry... and it doesn't look cool. i don't like most of the shirt designs nowadays and actually i'm sick of black shirts. they should do more green or red or brown or whatever.

    If he can pull off "He is the Kwizatz Haderach He is born of Caladan And will take the Gom Jabbar" part without stuttering, he can do the whole :)

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    both of them (youtube and spotify) can't be wrong. and the song's live versions have similar good ratings. wasting love's live version on "a real live/dead one" has 1.768.000 listens. fear has the most listenings on that album with 3,5 million listens (btw i think that helsinki performance is...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    If we look at the numbers, wasting love is more well-known. on spotify it's 9th most listened Maiden song. the song has 107 million listens, be quick has 40 million. on youtube the video of Wasting Love has 64 million views, be quick's video has 12 million views. but I agree with you, these...

    I agree, that's why i said "probably", but "one of" would have been a better term. Still: at the time it was huge. The third number 1 album on british charts when charts mean a lot. And that was in 1992, when grunge ruled the earth and "killed" metal. so it was a big deal for metal.

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    Come on it's the first single and the first song of their probably biggest commercial success which is Fear of the Dark album! I think because of Maiden members themselves, Maiden fans don't trust their favorite songs. Be Quick is like Battery of Metallica. Or Hit the Lights or Blackened...

    Best Live Album?

    visually: Live after Death. It's like a movie. I think the only one shot in 35 mm... setlist-vice: Maiden England 88... has just the perfect balance of the Golden Era. sound-vice: Rock in Rio. the most modern one.

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    I have a strong instinct that the tour will start with Phantom of the Opera. Just like they surprised everybody by starting with Number of the Beast in Give'em Ed tour. The intro of Phantom is suitable for Maiden's favorite thing: "first playback guitars and explosive entrance" formula. I...

    till then I also wonder; if I said "Yes" to his "Hallowed" guess, what would he say as the reason for their excluding of Hallowed. Because at that time nobody knew that there was a legal case about that song. : )
