It's a bit of craic at the end of a show, for the people who will swallow any crap thrown at them at the show, not youtube voyeurs.
Fixed it for you.

My ticket said 7:30pm and that’s when it startedSo, what time has Bruce taken the stage each night? Doors are open at 630 tonight and I'm plotting my train ride to the venue.
So how do the questions get submitted -- are there cards in the lobby you can fill out, or what?Started around 7:40 on Tuesday night.
He comes on about mid-way through "Born in '58" playing over the PA for what it's worth.
Simply writing it on the wall should be enough, no?So how do the questions get submitted -- are there cards in the lobby you can fill out, or what?
Yes, they have several stations setup around with cards to fill out and boxes to drop them inSo how do the questions get submitted -- are there cards in the lobby you can fill out, or what?

Why such high strain? Lower register would sound so much better. Perhaps he should use a tuning fork. I appreciate he just goes for it without safety net though.

Here's Chemical Wedding from a recent show:
One moooooooore thing. In a funny bit of banter, Bruce was going on about a story where he was a British Airways pilot for a few months and was approached by a German Iron Maiden fan who didn't recognize him and asked him for bus directions. He mentioned he still has his pilot's cap from British Airways. Someone towards the front of the audience asked if they could have it and Bruce replied "No, I still use it in the bedroom."Oh, one more thing, somebody in that audience on Friday did a dead on impression of Nicko's "Aye!?"
I just now realized you’re another Chicago area member! We should plan a meet up for the October show w/ @Detective Beauregard and @Lampwick 43Show on Friday night was quite fun. Didn't realize until after the fact it was in the same venue Maiden played on The X Factour. That factoid blew my mind.
None of my questions got answered. Upon hearing the ones that did get answered I realized I should have dumbed my questions down (I was asking stuff like "Has your perception of Maiden's history and legacy changed throughout your second tenure in the band?") Only Maiden questions that really got asked were "Was Stratego meant to be the first single over TWoTW?" which the answer was "No, we didn't make the WotW video for six months for nothing" and "What's your favorite song on the LotB pinball machine?" which he said RotAM was.
All he said about the solo album is right after the final date of the speaking tour he's going right to Los Angeles for some writing, then he'll be off to Europe for LotB 22 rehearsals.
Listened closely when he sang Man of Sorrows (I was going to ask for Hell on Earth, haha) to cap the show off and didn't notice any straining/cracking at all. Sounded good to me.
