Create your own Iron Maiden setlist!

The Future Past Tour 2023 (updated my setlist from a previous post)
  1. Doctor Doctor (intro from tape)
  2. Caught Somewhere in Time
  3. Days of Future Past
  4. Futureal
  5. The Time Machine
  6. Stranger in a Strange Land
  7. The Trooper
  8. Heaven Can Wait
  9. The Number of the Beast
  10. The Parchment
  11. Fear of the Dark
  12. Iron Maiden
Encore
  1. Alexander the Great
  2. Hell on Earth
  3. Hallowed Be Thy Name
  4. Stratego
Encore 2
  1. Wasted Years

This setlist consists of 5 Senjutsu songs and 5 Somewhere in Time songs as the teaser trailer for the upcoming tour already showed.

Furthermore, I have added some songs that I think would be hard to get rid of in an Iron Maiden setlist anno 2023 (Number of the Beast, Hallowed be thy Name, Fear of the Dark and Iron Maiden).

Futureal fits the theme of the whole tour really well!

Now this is a semi realistic setlist for 2023 taking in account they wanted to play some more Senjutsu stuff and SIASL/ATG without diving into the SIT futuristic imaginary. Here's a close example of how it could be.

Intro (Genghis Khan)
Stratego
Two Minutes To Midnight
Stranger In A Strange Land
Lost In A Lost World
The Trooper
Death of The Celts
Killers
Sign Of The Cross
The Writing On The Wall
Can I Play With Madness
Hell On Earth
Phantom Of The Opera
Fear Of The Dark
Iron Maiden

I know I just posted a setlist 3 or 4 days ago, but I thought I’d post my Future Past Tour setlist with a bit more detail than the one I did on the main Future Past thread

| Blade Runner Intro |
================

1. Caught Somewhere in Time (With Cyborg Eddie)
2. Futureal
3. The Writing on the Wall (With Samurai Eddie)
4. Days of Future Past
5. Heaven Can Wait
6. The Trooper
7. The Time Machine
8. Stranger In a Strange Land

9. Lost in a Lost World (this is followed by an ominous hum. The crowd looks around in excitement. They know what’s next)
10. Alexander the Great
11. The Number of the Beast
12. Hallowed Be Thy Name
13. Iron Maiden
=============
14. Fear of the Dark
15. Run to the Hills
16. Wasted Years


I think it’s one song too long. The Trooper wasn’t planned. However, as I thought about it I knew they couldn’t not play it. This isn’t really a prediction. It’s more of a dream setlist that I tried to be realistic with.

Hell on Earth

Heaven Can Wait
Fear of the Dark
Iron Maiden

The Number of the Beast
Hallowed be Thy Name
Wasted Years

Short number of songs but prob 1hr 40 and realistic i think.
 
Loosely inspired by Iced Earth's Alive in Athens setlists, the idea behind this is an older Iron Maiden playing three sets on three different nights, with each coming from a different period of time. First, the early years (1980-1985), then their mid-period (1986-1999), and finally their post-reunion songs (2000-). This is certainly unrealistic, but I wanted to see if I could come up with something big that could be a helluva way to end on a bang with. So:

Set 1:
Intro: Churchill's Speech
1. Aces High
2. Where Eagles Dare

It is criminal, however, that every night is cursed with Iron Maiden the song.
