RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

They could but that would totally fucked considering that everyone knows of Bruce's issues at Knebworth. Also would it not sound quite incongrous, outdoor footage with indoor sound? I'm no expert in these things but I think it would be noticeable. Although Live Chapter proved that they can happily release incongrous live stuff.

I'm sure there's lots of chat among them as to how to do this live release.
The best is like flught 666 that would be easier for them but they are going to use paris for sure,maybe video for a documentary at kneworth and the rest who knows.
 
I find the Simon Dawson hate so funny because especially this year I can't think of a time at the three shows I've attended where he's been the cause of a genuine fuck-up, and any minor slips are in full "Nicko would have done that sometimes too lmao" mode like dragging a bit on the extended Seventh Son interlude. Adrian's fucked it, Jan's fucked it, Bruce has fucked it. Are they not cutting it either?

Either way, the band seems to disagree with you and you can tell they enjoy working with him onstage.

Maiden has never performed these technically perfect performances night after night, they're a machine that sometimes gets ahead of itself or drags a bit and then comes roaring back in. It's part of why I enjoy their live shows so much.

Given that, I think Simon is doing an excellent work, it cannot be easy to join a band that has a habit of losing itself in the music, and stepping in for a bloke who's adjusted to and shaped that chaos machine over 42 bloody years.

The man's playing stadiums, headlining festivals, and being recorded multiple times for live albums, and visibly having a good time doing it. The band is clearly happy working with him and happy with how he's playing. People could really stand to be a little more respectful.

Every bit of Paris footage they don't release is an absolute tragedy - they were on *fire* that night. Live in Paris with an encore fudged together would still probably be up there with their best live releases ever.

I think Flight 666 is a great film in total but I much prefer a concert film to be from one show. This new one is obviously going to be a different beast but I hope it's not different songs from different places the whole way through. The more Paris the better, for me.

They will use the paris show as they said. And people said they were really good
