RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

On a hypothetical level, I love how this starts out but after Killers my enthusiasm level pretty much drops off a cliff (except for Hallowed).
For my wish list it could really use one more PoM song. My choices would be Die With Your Boots On or Still Life (since Revelations was played recently).

It is to be expected though, the last few songs will be Iron Maiden, Running Free, Hills, Hallowed, Fear etc. It's almost guaranteed. We all are excited to see the first 10 or so.
 
Sea of Madness would be a weird choice for this one, I like it. I'd be glad to hear it live, but if they were to play it, wouldn't they on the last tour?

"Revelations" is out for "RFYL"; Bruce is performing it on his solo tour this year.

that's a shame. It would fit perfectly and it's probably the song that Bruce's voice shines the most, especially nowadays. I still don't rule this out for the Maiden tour.

I think that a good reason we might hear it on this tour is because it wasn't included in the DoFP tour.

I mean, did we hear Infinite Dreams on the Legacy tour or the BoS one, because it wasn't included in Maiden England. I don't know. I hope they play Sea or Long distance runner/Deja vu. I love SIT.

You had me at I Love SIT.
It’s my original and by far my all time favorite IM album.
I was thrilled with the focus in the last tour.
I just get a gut feeling that for this next tour they will pick a different tune from that album.
I’d be equally thrilled if it’s Loneliness or Deja Vu.
 
At this point I'm ready to hear whatever. Even though my first Maiden show was in 1981 I've only seen them live a total of 13 times so I'm not jaded when it comes to stuff like Trooper, NotB, RTTH, etc. Still happy to hear everything and anything live. Well, expect for most of the Blaze era :D

13 times is pretty amazing. I haven’t seen anybody 13 times.
 
Every fanpage setlist that doesn't include neither Powerslave nor Rime is fake.

I'm 99% percent sure that at least one of those 2 will be played. If not both.
 
Well, I'm almost nearly 100% sure Rime gets played. Since it's supposed to be the early years "play classics" style and since "epic" is about 67 % of Maiden identity by now (so we definitely don't get a setlist of only short songs), I don't see them doing anything else instead - Alex they did now and is certainly more "niche", SSOASS probably won't return anymore, as it feels too tied to its album and the specific tours (and besides, I wouldn't want to do the last three minutes with a new drummer) Sign of the Cross is a Blaze-era track that I was surprised they unearthed at all and definitely isn't for the "play classics" crowd and even if they decided to resurrect To Tame a Land (since the movies were a hit recently, I'm told), it is way too obscure (and short) to serve as the only epic.

Rime is the most famous "big" song of theirs (HBTN and FotD aren't even properly "multi-part", IMHO), it originated on a very famous tour and unless they decide to go full troll mode and not play anything past PoM, I don't see them leaving that one be.

I have no idea if this is accurate or legitimate. Just saw this on a Maiden Chilean fanpage. Possible Spoiler warning...

It's a fan made wish, if only for the 20 songs set, but it's like realistic. The right length, I think this is the best possible setlist for me (well, if I don't count Wasting Love and No Prayer), maybe with one more deep cut like Boots or Still Life. Add Rime instead of Powerslave (even Seventh Son), drop Wasted Years for Clairvoyant/Evil That Men Do and it's perfect. Although celebrating 50 years with half the albums is wrong, so let's hope for Part 2.

It's probably fake. 20 songs seem a lot but the total length is 1h 44mins, which is still possible. I mean Prowler, Tame, Infinite Dreams and Killers would be very nice. Sea of Madness also, it's different. I don't think it's true though. I'm still hoping for Rime AND Powerslave tbh

I also think a 100 minutes show is possible and also appropriate for a tour like this, but I guess it will be a bit shorter.

As for the setlist, it wouldn't be bad. Kick out TTAL and replace it with something good from 7th Son, and it's fine (not too far from my wishlist). All the boring stuff comes with the Encore, so you could also skip it and avoid the long and tiring queue at the exit :)

Because they had to play the famous cuts Heaven and Wasted. Is Sea Of Madness the most obscure song from SIT to say? Deja-Vu? Not sure about Long Distance Runner. Maybe they rehearsed all SIT songs in 2023, who knows, Steve talked about Long Distance Runner. And wasn't there a rumor about Sea and Moonchild, or it was Can I Play With Madness back in 2023?

Please no. I think it has no chance for this tour and now it is being overplayed really.
