RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

And 2mtm

That will look shite then, since there would likely still be light during that one.

Logical. Maybe they could use more songs from it, they obviously will record the whole thing. But what if the festival starts during daylight? 2 Mintues?

So that aces high from lyon was just another gig. The guy its incredible

Let's hope Aces from Knebworth will be close to it.

Knebworth makes it so much easier for them for bonus material - just tour of Eddfest and that's it.

Good call. It would be cool to show the museum with stories from the band members.

Yes! The museum and shoot footage from all the other stuff like the Unfair and from the bands on Friday

Then down in falls comes the rain

And buckets of other semi liquid substaaanceeees!

So Tony Newton didn't handle the recording of the encores in Lyon after all. The insider information here needs to improve.

He's just biding his time.

I think the best way to do it is to film the encores at Knebworth and film 2MTM at the next indoor venue. That would give them the best continuity of the video.

BALZE!!11 never asked to down tune in 95 and only started hinting about maybe they could have downtuned about 10 or 15 years after the fact, to blame Steve for his own failures.

It's only a joke pal

A hidden Easter egg would show a couple on the ferris wheel reenacting the Download Festival experience.

Show me where I wrote that Tony Newton was recording anything in Lyon? I was only concerned about his presence, and his presence in Paris and Lyon is true.

That's 100% correct. Pooch recorded it with Pro Tools and Tony will ruin it later.

This is the Tony Newton's wax figure you can find in the I.M. Museum

What's the similarity between the real Tony Newton and his wax figure?

Spoiler

They both have wax in their ears

They both come with twiddlable knobs.

They both have wax in their ears, and in both cases it seems to affect the quality of the production.

So, the title will be The Third Hundred Years' War, right?

If you think NoTD is bad, check out the first KK's Priest record, which Newton mixed and played bass on. No wonder KK coughed up the cash for Jacob Hansen to mix the sophomore record.

Oh yes, blame the victim.

I honestly think Blaze, even after years of touring with Wolfsbane, was still so green when it came to his voice he didn't know any better at the time that they should have tuned down. He still says to this day he learned so much about his voice from working with Steve.

Having read At the End of the Day a long time ago, I recall him saying something along the lines of the subject of tuning down never coming up during auditions or rehearsals, but I've never read or heard about him blaming Steve for anything. It's always the opposite. If there's an article or a quote in the book I've forgotten that states otherwise, I'd like to see it.

The next autobiographical book from the Maidenverse will be:

BALZE BALDEY
Wasted Tunings: My Numbered Years with Iron Maiden

Uncut. Unabridged. Slightly underproduced. Although Tony Newton wasn't in the picture yet... or was he?
*
After its enormous and utterly unexpected success, it will quickly be followed by:

The Manual of the World's Greatest Air Drummer and Hair Stylist

Against all odds, that one will be an even bigger success.
*
Then comes the inevitable third volume:

Kill Him! Or Better Yet, Let Me Kill Him Myself
And Other Cut-Throat Stories from the Road.

 

[Flaming Blimp Crash]

And by the light of the moon
He prays for some new pantaloons
