So you want a show with Mariner, SSOASS and Alexander? They should do Empire of the Clouds as the fourth song then pack it up and go home!

Personally I'd take that over seeing the same show two years in a row. Rod, if you want my money you know what to do

Yes. And song length is not a problem.
I'd even say that Future Past tour was more challenging than the RFYL setlist would be with the Aces-Alex swap arrangement-wise. Celts and Hell On Earth have difficult arrangements on the level of Rime IMO.

I have the date of Knebworth still blocked out in my diary. Still waiting for the price to drop…

Despite being a well-known connoisseur of Aces High performances from 2025, I would buy a ticket straight away if Alex was the setlist as the encore opener. All the major 80s in one setlist! Yes please (go home TTAL. No one wants you here)

Run for your lives essentially a greatest hits tour? According to Spotify the top 8 most popular Maiden songs have streams of between 145 million and 582 million, all 8 are on the RFYL setlist. Number 9 is Wasting Love at 123 million streams, or 94 million streams more than Alexander. Youtube views has WL at 76 million, Alexander 10 million.
Imagine the complaints from the masses if the set was thrown out. Hallowed, 2 Minutes, Aces, Fear replaced by Gangland (10.7 million streams), Back in the Village (9.3m), Sun and Steel (8.2m) or Total Eclipse (4.7m). How many stadium tickets would be sold?
Announce rest of world please!

People speaks about spotify like it was the bible. Wasting love someone said its because was in some list of power ballad songs or love songs. That song or journeyman doestn represent iron maiden sound at all

A 2-for-1 offer would make me reconsider attending…

Same here. For me, going would mean going with my young son as well (as he'll be royally miffed if I went without him), but two tickets and paking will currently come in at near £300 for a gig that will be the same as London Stadium but with a worse view for him. That's a very hard price to justify in those circumstances, even if I had that cash readily to hand.
