So far the only two words "daniel" used capitals are William and Tell...

Pretty clear... And TOYS from that message to "followers" from the mail.

Should check other posts of the poster for capitals.

Divorced wife
My son moved back in with his mom

Bought house with new girlfriend

Son started college
Three promotions at work
Broke up with GF, moved out of house

Have collected 90% of all Maiden works on vinyl

There’s more, but It’s neat seeing how much can happen in-between Maiden albums.

Doesn't in English speaking countries Writing on the Wall literally meaning impending doom, the end?

"Seeing the writing on the wall" means recognising or acknowledging that something is inevitable - not necessarily something bad, although that is almost always how it is used. "On the cards" has similar usage (which, btw, takes you right back to "The Tower" if anyone's interested ...)

And also btw, if you read through these:

This one is the best, because it's written by a fellow IM fanclub member and the one who first noticed Bruce's shirt. She broke the whole thing wide open and none of these other sites are giving her credit.

it does increasingly seem to be "on the cards" that the daniel@bels_feast Twitter thing will turn out to be another stitch-up like the Benny Breeg website.

I'll tell you what I think: I think that Rod just loves to wind up the rumour mill and watch it go. It's like a clockwork toy to him ... :innocent:

There was a listening party there for TBOS album, right? Bruce took the fans there with his plane.

The plane was chartered by the record company so Bruce could take a number of journalists to Paris to the listening party. All seats that were left after journalists accepted the invite, were put on sale to Fan Club members.

Seven angels... This screams that there will be more clues during SSOASS listening party.

Seven angels -> part of ''Moonchild'''s lyrics -> this song was teased in the trailer for SSOASS listening party.

Yeah, we can expect more clues (Bruce is the man for that) during this party.

Also the choice to do SSOASS... Pretty clear why...

The second concept album of Maiden?

I'm more of an Yie Ar Kung Fu on bootleg "8000 games in 1" Nintendo.

No joke. Before the latter 90s, like 1996, SNES was owned by kids whos parents could import it. Mostly merchant marine children. Maybe kids of parents that worked in the Duty Free's, stuff like that. Playstation was still a pretty big unknown. Arcades did not exist. Arcade machines were around but in billiard/indoor sports rooms, mostly Sega's driving simulators. PC people have just started adopting multimedia en masse, SVGA cards, CD-ROMs and Sound Blasters. Piracy was rampant.

So, in span of one year I'm playing Yie Ar on bootleg Nintendo at my neighbours, playing rented Street Fighter II on my school buddy's SNES, and then finally once upgrading the PC playing MK2 on 17" SVGA with full sound.

It's like 3 generations of fighting games on 3 generations of platforms in the span of one year.

You remember the email address at hotmail?
Perhaps one or few of the people, sending an email there, will win a listening party in the new Guillaume Tell studio in Paris?

While a listening party would be nice, it seems like a bad idea during a pandemic.
 
I would say this is very thought out and clever thing all together. I was a bit surprised and amazed how thing whole thing started out of nowhere.
Even if we've known from detective work done by Maidenfans, that the band recorded etc. but they've still had to sit on top of the album since pandemia.
I know their interests and especially Bruce could do things like these, but I wouldn't have expected this kind thing from them at all, because I just couldn't see it coming.
This so far away from the usual market and hype talk concerning the more usual artist or band when they announce something.
Atleast, as we don't actually still know for 100% sure (what it is being announced), but this is examplary case of using internet and get people hyped over the upcoming album etc.

It is something like we've never seen

Yes. A real surprise and a big hype. They started playing with hints since the start of the LOTB tour (2018 leg tour poster)... They like that for sure.

The Belshazzar's feast poster come out of the blue: it was posted up at the Download Festival Pilot, but no bands linked to it (Bruce's shirt was first though). This poster and Bruce's interview were the big things (even if we've know that the album was recorded) - the poster gave us a specific date.

or a straight up concept album called Babylon.

Most probably. Or (at least) the title track will be on this theme.
