A normal person's checklist if they had a time machine:

-Meet Socrates and ask for wisdom concerning the fucked up world we live in now
-Go to a Roman orgy
-Play a prank on Leonardo da Vinci while he's painting the Mona Lisa
-Watch Napoleon do something badass
-Kill Baby Hitler
-Stop 9/11
-Prevent some mistake I did in the past

My checklist if I had a time machine:

-Ask an ancient scribe if the third letter in the second word from the fifth line in verso of leaf 5 from manuscript A341 is an alpha or an omicron
-Ask another ancient scribe why the fuck he never closes the loop in the rho in his inscriptions when chronologically speaking he should be doing it
-Ask the scribe of manuscript ea if he made a mistake with this weird hapax legomenon and kill him if he didn't
-Travel to the year 133 CE and ask a random guy what year it is in his calendar
-Inspect Temple 2 and see if the walls have crenelation or not
-Ask a guy posing for a bas relief in 260 CE what language he speaks

You wouldn't go to 1986 and provide Steve Harris more historically correct lyrics to Alexander the Great?

I would go to early 1998 and steal the manuscript for The Angel and the Gambler.

Perun is a Nazi confirmed. Would not kill baby Hitler.

"Ask an ancient scribe if the third letter in the second word from the fifth line in verso of leaf 5 from manuscript A341 is an alpha or an omicron "

No. He merely confirmed he's Perun and not some imposter. He just has his priorities straight .

There's always: "Tell Adrian Smith to write himself a reminder how to play the Alexander the Great solo."

Or "Stop Steve from learning ECD and ECGD chord progressions"

You don't like Aces High or Infinite Dreams?

 

[Yax]

You don't like Aces High or Infinite Dreams?

I like most Maiden songs. And either of those chord progression is somewhere in like, almost every song.

 

[Black Wizard]

I'd go back to the recording sessions for 'Brave New World' and ask Steve if he really wants the instrumental section in 'The Nomad' to sound like that.

Better still....go back to the late 60s/early 70s and 'write' Life's Shadow before Beckett do. That will make for some fun court battles.

 

[LooseCannon]

I think I'd get every pre-$1996 bill I can find, go back to 1996, cash it in, and invest in Apple.

Then stop off two weeks ago and cash out.

Even better, go back to mid-60s and write something slightly similar to this song:

He has a wealth of original musical ideas at his Beckett and call...

 

[Travis The Dragon]

I'd go back in time to be born in a year to be at least old enough to see Maiden on every tour in the 80's.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

Well, I was born in 1975, but I didn't become a fan until 1987 so of course I'd have to become one at a younger age as well.

And holy shit! I just found out that Intellivision is back!

Actually, that wouldn't matter. I could be born in 1960 and see Maiden while in my 20's. Either way.

There is no need to kill baby Hitler, I have a feeling that if you participate in a Roman orgy then some weird buttefly effect will turn Hitler into a hero.

I didn’t realise yesterday when I posted this that it was actually VXI’s birthday.
Happy belated birthday to the worst Maiden album!

But it's not the worst!
