Alright, Peace @Cain, thanks for deleting the fanboy part.
I apologise for the outburst. We are all fans, boys or girls.

It would be great to have a proper Rock In Rio video release on YouTube from the band or from someone who managed to capture the show. I didn't watch the show last night, it was too late for me and friday I had a very busy and exhausting day.I'm not sure if we'll get a video release from LOTB - I mean all legs of the tour were live streamed. It will be odd to have ONLY a live album from this tour, but Nights Of The Dead was more or less a bonus anyway.
Anybody an idea if Iron Maiden themselves check forums like these from time to time? If so, there might be a chance they really change the one or other thing.
^ Maybe that was the best decision. With a few changes to the old classics too. I agree about the encores, but if Nicko can play Aces High there, he could pull off Stratego there too?I'm going to paraphrase myself from earlier this year here: the new songs being the encore would ensure half the audience is just gone after Iron Maiden ends, would be a total letdown since they're not at all high energy and wouldn't work anyway because Stratego is nearly too much for Nicko as the second song, let alone as the second-to-last tune they play. No, they should've just not fucking done the Senjutsu realm at all.
Play TWOTW, maybe Stratego if they can fit it somewhere in the set, otherwise keep the basic structure and the "realms" from the original LOTB set intact. Aces High as the opener, etc.
This leg of the tour shouldn't have been with so many dates (especially when they're playing places they've already visited with this tour), but we know the reason for that. I expect the tour next year to be 5 months at most.Maybe they have been canceled some shows to rest the voice,
That's why I don't want the band to go in that direction.Bruce seems to have gone a bit in that direction, you can see how he approaches the chorus of Aces High on the current tour.
^ This. Nicko in particular was very good. Too bad Bruce had problems for all live streamed shows since 2013.I watched the livestream last night, and honestly it wasn't as terrible as some are making it out to be in my opinion. In fact, I'd say it was really good for the most part.
Bruce struggled at times because he's clearly sick, and he definitely struggled in the encores because of that.
I wasn't able to listen to Aces High last night because the broadcast I was watching didn't show it, but based on the previously posted video it could've been better.
All that to say, I still think the band sounded fantastic as a whole through most of the night.
Really? (Not an attack, just genuine interest!) I vastly prefer him going for harmonies, instead of failing to reach the high notes. And there's only so many lines per song that you can let the audience sing, before it gets too obvious.That's why I don't want the band to go in that direction.
Thanks for the link! Can't download it at the moment, because too many people are watching/downloading. I'll try again later though
So will I.Thanks for the link! Can't download it at the moment, because too many people are watching/downloading. I'll try again later though

No, you see, both had a cold and thus trouble breathing.Icarus and Spitfire not fully inflated. And this at the major festival
Yep, been many times. It’s a giant arena. Nothing special about it. Sound is fine, views are fine, everything is overpriced. But for Maiden, anywhere is great!
Stjepan Juras wrote on Fb that he is going in Brazil for RiR and that he dont have vax.
So now we know why he and Steve are in good relations lately
He also wrote in comment that one band member is not vax. And some gril from Brazil wrote in comment that Steve is not vax.but he entered Brazil.
….But for vax.there are just too much rumors from a lot of different sides that I think it is most probably true.
I don’t know what happens with the wings always in Rock in Rio. Icarus can’t fly here and Bruce didn’t show the cross with angel wings in Rock in Rio 2001.Ill Bruce is a strange one... Does a horror show on Aces, but before belts out this.
Yes, you can hear that his voice sounds a bit strange... But still...
