Create your own Iron Maiden setlist!

Ok, here goes... I try to include at least one song from each Bruce-era Maiden album to make things more interesting.
Also, I try to leave out certain "obvious" songs, as I feel they are slightly overplayed, no matter how good they are (b-side to NOTB, the trooper, wrathchild, 2 minutes etc.).
(I'm not familiar enough with AMOLAD or TFF, so those I leave out for the time being).

(thread revival! I joined just so I could post this because I couldn't stop myself)

If they were to head out on the last tour of their career, this is what I would be dying for them to play. I also consciously avoided material that albeit good I think should be kept exclusive for prior tours only (i.e. for example, Powerslave and Ancient Mariner for the World Slavery/Somewhere Back In Time-tours. Even though they did Mariner in '86, too. Sacrilege, I say.)

I'm going to name this tour Before The Book. This would be an exercise in resting the Book Of Souls songs for a tour and getting some underplayed songs out there with a few standards thrown in. A rest too for FOTD which is overdue. Greedy setlist which I would have added Dance Of Death and Where The Wild Wind Blows to but it is long enough already and Alexander The Great too but I don't believe that will ever happen.

2. Be Quick Or Be Dead

14. Mother Of Mercy
15. These Colours Don't Run
16. The Number Of The Beast
17. Die With Your Boots On
18. Hallowed Be Thy Name
19. Iron Maiden

20. Where Eagles Dare
21. The Wicker Man
22. Wrathchild
23. Blood Brothers
24. Drifter

Seven songs from DOD? Isn't the limit, like, six songs? Yeah, yeah, I know the X Factor tour had seven songs from XF...but that was a wholly different singer and they just had to adapt.

EDIT: Okay, I was wrong. Eight songs from DOD?!
