RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

If I remember correctly, the original one was an inflatable abomination based on the cover of the first album that was replaced by the POM one (heavily based on what they used on the GMETID tour).

Agreed!

Let's be honest: stage Eddies in general, both big and walking ones, have improved a LOT in the last 15 years.

Really interested in seeing how good Killers Eddie looks for this tour. Mayan Eddie, Trooper Eddie, 2024 Cyborg/Stranger and Samurai Eddie were all fantastic.

Yes, but the last big Eddie was a massive letdown.

I can't agree, not so bad...

Agreed. The amount of money they are spending on sets has also clearly gone up a hell of a lot since Somewhere Back In Time

I was a fan of Stratego Eddie's design as is, so I was pleased with it. I think a big Eddie design that looked more similar to the walking Samurai one wouldn't have looked as good.

I mean, they still seem to be as active as they usually are as of late. It's not like Dave and Adrian were notoriously active with their stage presence back then.

My better half saw the band again live in 2023 after a long hiatus (previous gig was in 2013; before then she had seen them loads of times) and one of the things she mentioned was that Steve and Bruce were considerably less energetic on stage.

Wasn't Bruce fresh off his second hip replacement at the start of Future Past? I remember noticing he was incredibly static (for him) in videos from early on in the tour, and read that was the explanation. His mobility was night and day, it seemed, when looking at 2023's leg and 2024's leg.

I feel Steve's fine. Bruce noticeably has slowed down since his achilles injury prior to the 2019 tour.

My better half’s comment made me check live videos from 2013 and then 2023 and she was right about both of them.

No doubt they slowed down the last 10 years. Unfortunately. But it took Bruce 65 years and two hip operations, which I suppose isn't too bad.
