New (post-FOTD) live staples in future tours?

  I believe Blood Brothers was so good that the fellas are giving serious thought to leaving it in at least semi permanently.  The sing along aspect is off the charts.  The all races, all creeds, all species intro can accompany the song.  The Dio tribute was moving, but it wasn't THE reason for the moment. 
    Someone also mentioned TCDR as a possibility.  Yes. This and/or Breege from AMOLAD must stay.  I cannot wait to hear as many FF tunes as possible next tour, and I have a hunch Coming Home sticks around and becomes a staple.  Other than these few, I am afraid after this tour, most reunion hits will  "become the ghosts of time"!!!!

This means you have not attended any post 2000 tours except Early Days/SBIT ...?

Correctissimo EW.  Before SBIT Maiden hadn't ventured down to Australia since Fear of the Dark in 92 (I caught them in Sydney that tour, plus in Washington DC in 87 when I was on holidays with my family).  So I am all for reunion era songs next year, the more the merrier.  Hopefully they go with a similar set list to this year, only replacing 6 songs in the set with TFF tracks.  Atleast one song from each reunion era album would be amazing, and two off each would be a dream.  So the reunion era staples we here are all talking (BNW, TCDR, Wickerman) and Blood Brothers, Breeg, maybe No More Lies are highly anticipated for the Feb 24 and 27 gigs.
