Bruce Dickinson

Found the original one and another one. From Stjepan Juras’ facebook. (That guy who writes many Maiden oriented books)

So Juras and Paul Di'Anno have reconciled?

Funny thing, around a decade ago, Paul and Blaze did a Maiden related tour together. They played Sandefjord in Norway, and the same day Bruce Dickinson was doing a private talkshow thing in the same city! Too bad the three didn’t get to meet each other, probably because Bruce flew home the same night.

 

[Blood On The World´s Hand]

Better still: wear a "No Dennis Wilcock = No Iron Maiden" T-shirt.

Had the three of them met, would have been a golden opportunity to go to the audience and wear this shirt. Finally found a context for that one eh.

After hiccoughing myself to seriousness, I guess Bruce and Paul have met before, but last time probably around 1981.

Thanks for sharing.

Yes, they have realised that they can make a lot more money if they don't argue, but write a book together about the secrets of Bruce Dickinson.

Sofia gig was great. Compared to Berlin they swapped Aquarius for Jerusalem and a full version of The Tower, so I'm glad I got full setlist coverage on the two gigs I went to. Hope there will be another solo tour in the future.

Bruce nailed Navigate The Seas Of The Sun yesterday. Probably the best performance of that song of the tour.

It can't really be the first time they've met surely?

 

[The_7th_one]

I'm sure they've met when Bruce was in Samson as someone has said here and maybe in some parties in Steve's house or Hammersmith Odeon in London during the 80's

 

[The Red and the Black]

Samson and Maiden played a show together way back when. Bruce said Maiden blew them off the stage. I'm surprised he didn't meet Paul and the Maiden guys that day.

Maybe they didn't meet back then because Rod didn't want this meeting. Rod was probably already in negociation with Bruce to be the new Iron Maiden singer replacing Paul. That's why this negociation had to stay secret. And Bruce being a talker, as we all know, he could have easily revealed this secret to Paul, chatting innocently with him... It's a possible scenario of what happened and what didn't happen during the early days.

Philip said Jerusalem is probably his favorite song to play live out of all the songs they've played so far. For him, Adrian's solo is just great.

In the comments he said that Trumpets and Eternity are great songs, Kill Devil Hill is a good one and 1000 Points Of Light is a cool song with those heavy riffs. He asked the fans which songs they like to hear.

 

[matic22]

Trumpets would be very tough for Bruce at this point. Probably one of the hardest songs he ever recorded/performed.

Sure about that? Here's a recent photo of Bruce performing "Trumpets".

Yeah, it was hard enough for him in the 90s. It's not a good idea to bring it back today.

He can always close the show with that song, à la 'Aces High'...

But nothing suggests that this is a trumpet of Jericho... So, there is a reasonable doubt from my side.

 

[srfc]

Is Trumpets not the lowest tuned song he ever sang on, and wasnt tuning down the answer to all his problems?
