Someone needs to tell that boy to stand still and concentrate. Doesn't he realise his carefree levity is jeopardising the deadly serious image Maiden have spent the last 43 years carefully cultivating? Enough of the frivolity already!

Dunno. Maybe because the arena show wasn't selling good enough, they didn't move it to the stadium?

The arena show sold out pretty quickly.

I have to say this makes me feel pretty good. It's always bothered me that Bruce and Steve really don't get along. Bothers me more than it should lolBruce and Steve have fun in Chile yesterday. Who will be Bruce's next victim... only Nicko left

The Bruce and Steve thing is a myth in my opinion, people have made more of it than they should, it all stems from Bruce leaving in 93 and even then Steve didn't lay into him, if anything Nicko was the most vocal about his departure back then

Both of them have stated that over the years, with older age and all, they've come to understand and respect each other better and better and they've said some very kind words about each other, so yeah, all good.

I guess that many, many years ago, Steve was always suspicious of a guy who'd been to a university, was two years younger than himself, and not from London.

Interview with the whole band from 2015 circa the release of TBOS.
Two key statements for you:
"It doesn’t take something like that [Bruce's cancer] for us to be close. Our relationship has been great for years." - Steve
"Well, you hear all that stuff about them [Steve and Bruce] fighting, but it can’t be like that all the time or we wouldn’t be here now." - Davey
The Nicko who put in that eccentric performance was
a) Drunk as a skunk, and
b) Very upset, because he didn't want Bruce to leave.
Furthermore the journalist who reported it had apparently got him drunk on purpose, in the hope of eliciting just such an outburst. Job done then.
Bruce, however, understood perfectly well what had happened and never held anything against Nicko for the incident.

And that was even before they were both interviewed by the NME...
