Good Bruce rant.

Good Bruce rant.

Isn't that an oxymoron?

Kidding, he's 100% correct here.

Already posted by myself on The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner thread.

Yep, part 2 with new song in the setlist. Then when they are ready, album #18 release and tour for it.

Yes, in principle, the part 2 makes sense when you consider that the announced tour indeed is the first half of the albums. But you wonder then why they might have planned it like that. It wouldn't be necessary.
We had such long advance plans at work sometimes to get everybody on board with the vision for a longer period.

I think they will absolutely document the Future Past Tour. I think they will record shows in South America.

Does anyone have attendance figures for the US tour yet?

Have some of the gigs been properly sold out?

Rosemont was properly sold out and was so for about two weeks prior. Think Worcester sold out pretty quickly.

Regarding the jacket, was there just another one that was laying around? I know of the one in Cleveland at the Rock Hall, but the Hall's not going to just loan that out for a night back to the artist if I understand how the Hall works correctly.

Maybe they had two, one as the main jacket and one for backup in case the original gets damaged beyond repair or something?

This was fast (not as fast as that) but more importantly consistant performance under control, which is a great sign.

Great to hear.

it's just as much of a risk to have already announced a tour with an end date of 2026 at this stage. If you take that into account, it doesn't seem so different and unthinkable to have an overall concept that goes beyond that.

The tours are usually 2 years, there should be a reason Maiden gave away both years this time. Nicko is improving. And as Bruce said, they have plans up until then since last year or something. They always have a couple of years plans/ideas.

I love the Download 07 footage from the 2020 broadcast. Excellent sound quality b the video is a bit dark and there are flags everywhere.

Yeah, although the DOD show was dark too. I think they didn't release it because of some of the performances and probably the flags.

Best scenario would be a full show from the 2023/2024 leg + Senjutsu and Stratego from LOTB '22 as bonus tracks. Audio only, IDK.

That would be perfect and awesome. Audio only???

Only question mark, is Nicko. His playing is good for a 72yo guy who suffered an ictus... but good enough for a live album?

For me, for sure. Even from one show atm.

Maybe the jacket was hired from Hard Rock Cafe (NYC) just for that one night?!
