As we all know, Fear of the Dark has been nearly ever-present since it first was played. Some other songs are also played on nearly every tour.
But what do people think, will any 2000s songs join FOTD, Hallowed, and the other ever-presents in future setlists? And if so, which ones?
People seem to agree that Blood Brothers was a highlight on the set on this summer's tour. Maybe the fact that Bruce dedicated this song to Ronnie James Dio (rip) on every night of the tour contributed, but one cannot deny that it is a very potent live track. I hope they keep it on future setlists - maybe rotating it with FOTD?
Another song I feel has such potential is These Colour's Don't Run. Besides being another great singalong song, it is a song that can be a symbol of Maiden's attitude. This band does not run. When the going gets tough, Maiden get going. I think the song has anthem potential.
Of course, one can not ignore Brave New World either. Besides The Wicker Man, it is the only 2000s song that has been played on more than one tour following its album tour. It is another example of a very singalong-friendly song, it is in fact awesome live.
So what do people think? Will these songs figure frequently in future setlists, or perhaps other ones?
