Run For Your Lives! Setlist speculation thread

Can you write what do you think each represents?

Also that's the Prophet Eddie in Killers pose and that should be a hint.

Debut: Lamp and Moon
Killers: hand pose and axe with blood
TNOTB: The white shirt
Piece of Mind: Mouth
Powerslave: The square windows in the ruins and the color of the lamp (yellow with a bit of blue)
Somewhere in Time: Cyborg eye, wires in fingers
SSoaSS: Neck implant
Fear of the Dark: twigs growing out of Eddie's shoulder
Senjutsu: Asian/Japanese building in background
Eddie's left eye appears on countless album covers
 
I think it's going to be a mish mash of songs from the Early Days tour and SBIT. You have to wonder if they'd open with Another Life again.
 
After the Paul and Nicko news I think the setlist could be a bit different than what I expected. I think "Remeber tommorow" will be included for Paul and also songs like Aces High, Be Quick or be Dead etc have more of a chance to be included now without Nicko. Also, Still Life could be included for Nicko and I'd love that.
 
I was also thinking if RT has any real chances of being included. They might go all in and make Where Eagles Dare the Nicko bit. He might even show up during London Stadium's gig, just for that song.
 
I think their initial plans (if they had any) for the setlist might change now. Although we know which songs to expect because of the theme and with the new drummer. You know, songs like Remember Tomorrow, Be Quick, Killers, Infinite Dreams... doubt about Eagles or Aces.
The tour better not be close to SBIT (or ME, although there are chances for that), something like Early Days (not sure, more like TEH) and the 1993 tour. It has to be unique and with the right 5 songs it is possible. Let's see, but with Nicko they could have been more adventurous, although they can do it ofc. I feel they will make a good mix of all previous Hits/History tours plus some surprises.

Early Days: 5 songs at most.
Classics/Hits: 5-7 songs.
90's songs: at least 3 songs.
deep cuts: at least 3 songs.

Something like that.
 
I've changed my mind from my initial thoughts, that the set was going to be more directed to NPFTD and FOTD. Now, I think they're going to priorize the first three records. Here are my bets:

Murders In The Rue Morgue
Wrathchild
Phantom Of The Opera
The Trooper
Afraid To Shoot Strangers
The Clairvoyant
Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
Heaven Can Wait
Bring Your Daughter...To The Slaughter
The Number Of The Beast
Fear Of The Dark
Iron Maiden

Hallowed Be Thy Name
Killers
Run To The Hills
 
I have a feeling too that they will prioritize the first 3 albums and especially the 3rd one. I think it's possible to have 4 TNOTB songs. 3 are 100% included IMO. 666, Run to the Hills, Hallowed. Then, they might do Children if they want to slow it down a bit or Acacia.
I also think that there won't be any 90s songs except FOTD and maybe Bring Your Daughter or Be Quick. It's difficult to predict really, so many hits and deeper cuts that the fans want to see live. Every week or month, my setlist prediction changes. The only certain IMO is that 3+ TNOTB songs will be included.

As Bruce states they will play song(s) for 1st time, my prediction is one of the following:

Prodigal Son (as a tribute to Paul)
Flash of the Blade
The Duellists
Mother Russia

Yes mate I’d bet the same thing, I think that other songs that I predict will be played for the first time for next tour are Only the Good Die Young, The Prophecy and Judas Be My Guide, Prodigal Son would be awesome!
 
Someone has probably suggested this.

I saw Sleep Token recently and they played songs essentially from oldest to newest ((in terms of albums) and I am sure this is what Taylor Swift did as well)). I was talking to a friend about this for if Maiden were to a chronological setlist.

There is some fan-fiction in here whilst keeping it with mainly classics
  1. Phantom of the Opera (IM)
  2. Iron maiden (IM)
  3. Ides of March/Wrathchild (K)
  4. Killers (K)
  5. Number of the Beast (NOTB)
  6. Run to the Hills (NOTB)
  7. Hallowed by thy Name (NOTB)
  8. Trooper (POM)
  9. Revelations (POM)
  10. 2 mins to midnight (PS)
  11. Rime of the Ancient Mariner (PS)
  12. Alexander the Great (SIT)
  13. Moonchild (SSOASS)
  14. Only the good die young (SSOASS)
  15. Bring your daughter (NPFTD)
  16. Fear of the Dark (FOTD)

Phantom - basing it that they can play the intro on tape and was in the trailer.
Rime - has been spoken about.
Alex - if they only keep one from CSIT, why not this.
Moonchild/OTGDY combo could have the acoustic bookend and either be the start of the encore or the end of the main set as OTGDY has that rock and roll ending.
BYDTTS - it is a Maiden song that my non-Maiden friends know well so surely it is a slam dunk from NPFTD. It is also a good encore song.
Finishing with FOTD is a bit weird due to the outro but it is a hype song so could be good for last
