Hey, can some kind soul do some sort of little synopsis of the clues so far?
Starting from the 2-cd Nights Of The Dead poster that has WOTW visible and onwards to this day.
I would like to have handy sypnosis to show if someone I know is still not believing this thing at all.
Thanks if you can do so.
 
Well.

I try not to get too excited, but to be fair, it's about time for Maiden to fill up the COVID-void with something. It's been a while since rescheduling of this year's dates for 2022 and a good while since the release of NOTB too.

Besides, there was this Chris Dale & Bruce meeting in a pub thing where Bruce mentioned amazing new video. The Feast of Belshazzar definitely sounds like something Bruce might have written for the new Maiden album and something that makes up for a cool video.

I'd say it's more of a 60/40 than 40/60 for a new Maiden single in 15th of July. :) Assuming it's something around Belshazzar indeed, it would also, as mentioned, fit in for the LOTB set and therefore work nicely as a way to build hype for the initial album release, unless they release it before the tour even starts. Oh well, that's too much of a speculation already, but hey, I'm sure we'll get something after bit over two weeks. :)
 
In that video Bruce was standing on theatrical stage. Maybe they will do warm up show over there.. Like Metallica occasionally does.

Precisely.

Which outcome would you prefer?

1. New Maiden album announcement.
2. New Bruce album announcement. (In the caliber of The Chemical Wedding, Adrian involved too)

l would choose option two, simply because we already know that the new Maiden album is in the can, and will be released sooner or later. Bruce's on the other hand, is way more unlikely. I mean, if Adrian would be involved and new music would be as much interesting and great as TCW, give me it any day of the week. :edmetal:

As much as I would like a Bruce solo album of the calibre of The Chemical Wedding, with Adrian Smith being involved, that ship sailed in 1999. If we ever get a new solo album from Bruce (and that is a big if), it would be a collaboration with Roy Z with some session musicians, like Tyranny of Souls.

I think we will get some sort of Maiden album announcement.
