Legacy of the Beast 2018 Tour

[Poto]

I don't see Maiden ever doing DOG again since Bruce can't sing it very well.

This isn't something they care about. Aces High would have been dropped before the 2014 tour if they cared about Bruce's vocal performance.

Good point. I think he would have done a better job at Aces High had it been the opening song. Having it as an encore was suicidal, although Bruce sang it reasonably well at most gigs I attended on that tour (Knebworth 2014 being the exception).

I wonder why the decided to play Aces High in 2012-2014 rather than a song more representative of the SSOASS period.

 

[GhostofCain]

An even stronger argument for opening with it.

Which Seventh Son songs do you think we will get? Evil is surely getting played, I fear we might get Madness as well.

My bet is on The Evil that Men Do. The blacksmith in the poster is (making a) living on the razor's edge.

TETMD for sure. Maybe CIPWM or Clairvoyant.

I wouldn't exclude Seventh Son itself either, even if they have played it quite recently.

I would - It was only brought back for the SSOASS-themed maiden England tour. If they were to wheel out an 80's mega-epic, my money would be on Rime

Of course, the chances are close to zero but you never know.

I guess we can all dream . . . as long it doesn't cause any restless sleep, with mind in turmoil

 

[Brigantium]

Bruce did say some of those songs on that tour probably wouldn't be played live again. Not that his word is gospel, but Seventh Son and ATSS would be fair guesses.

 

[GhostofCain]

Funnily enough, the latest Fan Club magazine featured a significant amount of pictures from the Maiden England tour and a feature on the SSOASS Eddie...

That's the management/PR team stroking their beards again.

I thought it was dull live.

I thought it was dull live.

I thought SSOASS was pretty good live, but probably not as good as Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

Didn't they say this back in 2008 as well? Only Rime and Heaven Can Wait hasn't been played since

Unrelated to the latest posts, but still on-topic.. I always wondered whether Janick has some special rehearsal sessions for his moves.

Ballett mixed with muay thai

Never thought I'd hear myself say this, but I'd be totally fine with no 7th Son tunes showing up in the setlist... with the exception of Infinite Dreams, though that will never happen.

 

[matic22]

Well, if I had to pick a realistic SSOASS tune for the set, it would be Clairvoyant.

 

[mihai]

Moonchild is also possible, IMO.
