RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

[Eduardo Cabeza]

As Neil Young would say: Tonight's the night...

 

[Eduardo Cabeza]

Ok 1 album and 10 months of 50 years

One pretty essential album though.

He played 6 solos on the first album and they were all great:

Strange World- first intro solo
Transylvania- first solo
Remember Tomorrow- second solo
Phantom of the Opera- third solo
Charlotte the Harlot-second solo
Sanctuary- first solo

This ^^^

They'll surely kick some serious ass tonight at Paris La Défense Arena - unless a few French cnts show up in the crowd. Or some cnt decides to crank the AC up to maximum. Or Steve puts his monitors in the middle of the stage again, like it's 1983.

Personally, I'm betting on the cnts.

I nearly bit the bullet today and bought the cheap tickets from ticket zoo from Knebworth. However, they sold out a few hours before I could get one.

In Eddie's Dive Bar in Paris. There's a lady who looks about 80 decked out in Maiden gear. I love her.

This is my 3rd Dive Bar experience and so far the Dublin Dive Bar is the only one that's had any real vibe.

"A french count what a fucking flare"

 

[Spaldy]

Welp, today is the big day. I hope the gig goes great and is worthy of capturing on film. Up the Irons!

I wonder if France playing a world cup match tonight might have an effect on last minute ticket sales?

There's been a power cut at the Paris concert.

Let's hope for a good editing.

They jinxed it.

It was probably Sharon.

Eggfest II?

 

[Spaldy]

According to the Reddit page it's out in the whole area. Might have been the heatwave that caused it. The band have been off for 25 minutes so far.

Between which songs

 

[Spaldy]

Between which songs

I heard it was during 2MTM.

 

[Azas]

I can imagine how stressful that must be. You carefully pick the show you want to record, pray that your voice is on form, that your body is behaving itself, and that the stars align.

Then...

Power outage.

Not a Greek with a flare. Not Steve's monitors in the middle of the stage.

A bloody power outage.

F**k.

 

[Ledges Bitten In Dust]

I heard it was during 2MTM.

It seems they'll abnadon the film now...

 

[Spaldy]

Power is back now. Crisis potentially averted.

Keep us updated

I don't know. Won't it be really strange if the movie portrays it as this triumphant concert, when almost everyone knows that in reality something completely different happened?
And I think including the power outage in the movie would paint a completely different picture than the story centered on the band’s anniversary and the spectacular concert that was supposed to accompany it.
