The Future Past tour 2023

[Stardust]

DAMN IT I GOT SOMEWHAT CLOSE WITH MY SETLIST PREDICTIONS BUT MAN WHAT A FREAKING SETLIST

Sadly I cannot actually go see Maiden live this year.

 

[PragueMiadenFan]

I can't wait for Wednesday night in Praha! Anyone else interested in meeting up pre-show stop by Wingz in Prague 7 from 3pm! Small American bar/bistro. My partner and I will be there and are happy to hang out with some other fans before hoping the tram over to the O2!

 

[Kalata]

I think it's possible they will swap Celts for Parchment for the 2024 leg. Given the reaction to the song.

As for the Power Trip festival, I don't expect any changes or an extra song, but they might play Hallowed or NOTB instead of Prisoner/CIPWM.

Just revisited a video of CSIT and Alex taken from Dave/ Adrian side. Man… with the utmost respect for Dave and Jannick for their contribution, but Adrian is a beast.

 

[Smither]

Still baffled at how good CSIT sounded, especially after Aces High last year (yeah, as an ending, but still).

 

[dickinson1978]

Any profesional pictures ?

 

[Kalata]

Intro not shortened at all
And unlike Celts going down like a wet fart, there seems to be more appreciation for this one

Yes. Fans love the song. I'm not sure, but I think Janick played all the leads in the intro and all of the melodies before the first verse!

Nicko also seems to simplify Hell On Earth. No drum fills after the intro.

The energy of Bruce at the intro of The Prisoner, talk about forever young.

 

[Kalata]

Bruce and his new toy!

 

[dickinson1978]

About the poeple complaining about the set list. We have like 7 songs we have never seen live in our lives. They said that this tour will be for the fans and thats what it is

If there is one thing we know about Maiden, is that some people will complain over whatever they do, no matter what.

 

[Kalata]

They need to record this on blu-ray. It’s mandatory. Stage looks amazing with the leds and setlist is beautiful.

They will release a concert video for sure. Especially since there wasn't one for LOTB.

 

[efekåseo_suomi]

Noticed the opening tom roll in Trooper is cut and it's just fucking with my head when I play it back.

Yeah I remember saying this might be the last tour with this lineup. With the simplified drumming, it feels like this could be the last tour with Nicko.

 

[Kalata]

Forever young!

Wow! Why doesn't Nicko do any drum rolls/fills?

I noticed that H is playing the first Alex solo more rythmically correct than on the studio version.

Also plays the first part an octave higher.

 

[Kalata]

WAIT! Jan's got an outro solo during SIASL. Was this mentioned before?

Cool. Janick also did an extra solo for Drifter in 2005.

Speaking of Janick solos, he only plays 6 main solos. They should have played a song with his solo on it instead of CIPWM.

Dave plays 10 solos.

 

[matic22]

Nicko also dropped all of the tough snare fills on CSIT just before Davey's solo.

BTW, kudos to Davey and Colin. His guitar solo sound on SIT songs is as close to the album as it could currently be. I wonder if they went to modelers for those. AxeFX or Kempers.

 

[Meliegree]

I'm still amazed how good Adrian was.
