More curious bits from the full MI Conversation
interview, officially released now:
- He may play Bring Your Daughter... To The Slaughter, he asked the audience if they want to hear it. But not on the Maiden tour, on his solo tour. A spoiler? That was a thought for him at the moment though.
- He listened to a Chicago song the other day and loved it. He also listened to Scorpions' You And I, which he thinks is a great song, and he asked Mistheria to come up with a synth sounds like in the intro of it to have on his new album. Then they listened to it for 20 minutes in the studio.
- With Maiden they have a rule now, 4 shows a week, if they do 2 back to back (which Bruce prefers to 1 show and then travel day), they get 2 days off. He also said they are much better live now than in the mid-80's, but the demand they put on themselves now is far more than in the 80's. He also mentioned the equipment is better now.
He explained how he warms up his voice before a tour. It's interesting.
More Maiden songs on his solo tour would be odd, even as rotating songs.
