Bear in mind that at least 1/3rd of the set has never been played live before.Yeah, I believe so too, but still, there were so much more mistakes than ever at the 1st gig.

Belgrade, Serbia 10 February 2009 (the start of the 3rd leg of Somewhere Back In Time World Tour) was funny case.Yeah, I believe so too, but still, there were so much more mistakes than ever at the 1st gig.
Yep, sometimes these little mistakes and changes show their human side. Of course they are masters in their craft and doing the best.On the other hand, these mistakes are what make them human and show that they are not playing over prerecorded tracks like some of their contemporaries.
I was there. But as I said before those were setlist mistakes. Yesterdays ones were performance mistakes.Belgrade, Serbia 2009 (the start of the 3rd leg of Somewhere Back In Time World Tour) was funny case.
-Adrian starts 2 Minutes To Midnight instead of Wrathchild, the band carries on.
-Nicko randomly counts The Trooper in (21:10). Band reactions are hillarious. Then he proceeds to mess up Phantom Of The Opera at 22:20.
-And my favourite, Adrian starts playing Wasted Years instead of Trooper. Bruce tells him to get his eyes ****ing checked (28:45).
-after Hallowed Be Thy Name, Bruce thinks it's the end of the show. He says goodnight, see you later, while the band just stands there like, WTF is he doing?
After he gave so much **** to Nicko and Adrian during the show, he ****ed up in the end too.
Hallowed Be Thy Name was the last song of the set, on the previous years leg of the tour, that's why Bruce must have thought that it was the last song of the evening.
How bad were the mistakes? I've seen some early shows on these tours in the last few tours and Im going to see Maiden on saturday.I was there. But as I said before those were setlist mistakes. Yesterdays ones were performance mistakes.
Nothing that can't be ironed out (no pun intended) in the next few shows.How bad were the mistakes? I've seen some early shows on these tours in the last few tours and Im going to see Maiden on saturday.
Ok, have to follow this. Im not probably going to check any video or audio before my own show..but I trust you and the other people here will probably inform if anything out of ordinary happens on the next 2 Prague dates etc.Nothing that can't be ironed out (no pun intended) in the next few shows.
But it seemed to me like the monitoring was awful and that resulted in the band getting nervous and they started fucking things up.
Tomato, tomato.I was there. But as I said before those were setlist mistakes. Yesterdays ones were performance mistakes.
Not being a touring musician my guess could be new crew, new equipment, or new procedures - or combination thereofWhy band of this level has serious monitoring issues... and as some of you said, throughout the whole show....
Sometimes the difference is just the people in the room. I think that was the case yesterday. And Arena Stožice has notoriously bad acoustics.Not being a touring musician my guess could be new crew, new equipment, or new procedures - or combination thereof
They really should be using in-ear monitors by this stage but I guess they're probably too old and set in their ways. I think only H uses them.Why band of this level has serious monitoring issues... and as some of you said, throughout the whole show....
All guitarists are on in-ears.They really should be using in-ear monitors by this stage but I guess they're probably too old and set in their ways. I think only H uses them.
In that case, the venue shouldn't have made any difference in their monitoring.All guitarists are on in-ears.
