It's always very exciting when a new Maiden tour starts. Classics, surprises, I'm looking forward to the design, setlist and Simon's drive (let's go) more than yesterday or when it was announced, I admit, the energy. I'll always miss Nicko, but seeing the band live, even the same songs - the feeling is like new every time, and because of the stage set. Adrian will bring some different guitars, but why not Dave and Steve. Will Simon wear a Maiden shirt...
Bruce's stage costume and theatrics are curious, as always.
I wonder if we'll get more props (and pyro) than usual. Bring it on! It's curious how they will fit with screens.

Right. Imagine Dave going over the crowd and smiling non-stop. It will happen for sure.

And every single year they were active, with a tour and/or album release, barring force majeure years (Bruce's illness, Covid lockdowns). The reunion era line-up was the ultimate Maiden line-up, a perfect blend of 80s, 90s, and new millenium Maiden. Best metal band ever.

Same for me. I will forever miss Nicko and I feel blessed having seen them twice with him. But I can't wait to see Simon bring something new to the table!

I think this is what they mean by the most elaborate show, because for the most part the stage looks the exact same set up as previous tours (looking likely its just a straight swap curtains gone, LCD display in)

HUGE screen! 
Let's hope it will have both sides screens too, it will look amazing. And the main stage decor should help the huge LED wall. Let's hope so.
Backdrops are classics - but the potential is massive. I always wanted to see something with screens and Eddies/landscapes. Different, interesting/effects and diversity. It was time.
It's a surprising move by Maiden, they said before they don't like the big screen do distract the fans with moving stuff. Let's hope they will use it right, and better than Bruce.

If we're going by albums released it's fair to say that, however in terms of touring, impact and legacy the reunion lineup is miles ahead. 25 years instead of 5, six live albums, lots of world tours, new versions of old historical tours and the list goes on and on.

Well, that's one thing they've never done before, so...
HUGE screen!

I'll be honest, seeing songs like Powerslave, Rime and other classics live with a big LED screen instead of the classic curtains will be weird. Maiden's curtains always had that classic feel to it. When I think of Rime, I imagine the Powerslave backdrop from the Flight 666 DVD.
However, the big screens add a LOT of diversity. Perhaps even showing pieces of lyrics. I can only imagine the quiet part in Rime and the effects/ images on screen :O

The potential for what they can do is massive, but I would've preferred the curtains with LED screens framing it. An evolution of The Future Past.

Honestly, I can do without the constant costume changes and props that Bruce was sporting on the LOTB tour. He became too busy and lost contact with the audience, in my opinion. I know people think highly of that tour, so this is certainly an unpopular opinion.
