WINNER! :) Congraz!

Let's "open" the clues now:
Clue #1: Empty threats
"I'm coming back, we will return... and we'll posses your bodies and make [CITY/COUNTRY] burn." Naturally, it's a threat only if you took it very seriously and literally, but anyway. And it's not like that kind of maniacs don't exist at all, as sad as it is.
Clue #2: Right after what Iron Maiden is all about... Or before, in next decade.
In a famous footage from Ullevi 2005, Bruce describes Phantom of the Opera as "Everything Iron Maiden is all about" ... And the song that followed was The Number of the Beast, so it was right after something Iron Maiden Is All About. In the next decade when Phantom of the Opera was played as part of the Maiden England set, TNOTB was played right before Phantom. Yes, Phantom was played in 2009 too, but that wasn't the point.
Clue #3: ...ah, turned out to be Powerslave, after all.
In Vosselaar, Belgium, 1998, Bruce introduced the song Powerslave by speaking the famous TNOTB intro ("woe to you oh Earth and sea..."), but the next song turned out to be Powerslave, in the end.
Clue #4: Bruce's chats... It's the key
See clues #2 and #3.
Clue #5: Unofficial footage
Clues 2-4 rely on "unofficial" yet more or less famous concert footage.
Clue #6: Belgium 1998
A hint, linked to #3.
Clue #7: Gothenburg 2005
A hint, linked to #2
Clue #8: Two and Seven and Three and Six are linked, it's all about something Bruce's words have winked
Another hint, leading you a bit closer to the solution of this little puzzle and helping to connect some of the clues that are linked together.
