BTW, I’m not sure, but I think BNW uses the same kick sample as Scenes From A Memory.

Nicko just caught Covid, which puts Adrian in the “likely” camp. Hope they’re both vaccinated

Aww man that's shit. I hope he feels better soon and that Adrian and Richie (and everyone else who was at the gig, assuming Nicko caught it there) are all safe!

Adrian definitely is, or at least that is what he said in an interview some time ago.

Hear, hear!
I would not be surprised if a large number of people attending the London gig caught Covid-19 there.

Nicko's definitely vax'd, he mentioned it in an interview a while back. He was treated for cancer in 2020 so I'm sure he got the jab as early as possible.

Wasn't someone claiming Nicko was anti vaxx?
Randalf

Yes, because he's religious. And Steve is anti-vax because he's Steve. Also, did you know that it was Steve, not Nicko, who played drums on Virtual XI!

And Steve eats puppies, too. Yes, it’s all very silly.

I'm pretty sure everyone in the band's been claimed as anti-vax until they actually come out and say "Yes, I got the vaccine."
GhostofCain

That is definitely not true. The only band member this has been said about (allegedly from very well informed sources) is Steve.
What, Stjepan Juras? Is he a well informed source? Nobody on here seems to think so.
GhostofCain

I do not know that guy.
An interview of his was linked in the LoTB Post-Pandemic leg thread and discussed by a fair few users about whether Steve was anti-vaxx a couple of months ago. Apart from that I haven't come across any 'well informed sources' saying this about Steve, other than this Stjepan character who has barely any relationship with the band, I'm led to believe.
I understand the speculation (The Darkness tour that was supposed to have happened a few months ago) but that's all it is until anything is made official.

Thanks. I know of Mr Juras; what I meant is that I do not know him personally.

Just found this old pic: https://m.facebook.com/groups/1521330748170399/permalink/2607642049539258/ Apparently, Nicko did a drum clinic att JB's in Dudley at a fan club event and then Blaze joined in and performed Man on the Edge with him and a tribute band. This was around 20 years ago. Blaze also has a Silicon Messiah hat on his head, so the pic is definitely from around that time.
Anyone on this forum who knows something more about this?

Some footage of Nicko's first (out of 4) warm-up gig before LOTB tour:
Nicko about ''Alexander The Great'' -> 18:06-20:48
- half of the band are ready to play it. He thinks they may do it on the Senjutsu tour.
He also mentioned that Maiden will play shows in Curitiba and Sao Paulo this year (not yet announced).

I thought so too. I think they will make at least one change (apart from the new songs) in the classics... the setlist was the same for both legs so far. If I have to guess, I think SIASL will be in the encores, replacing TETMD.
Btw, about ATG: if they play the whole album during the album tour next year, I don't think there will be much space in the setlist for a 8 minutes long deep cut, especially with FOTD and HBTN in the setlist.
