The Next Album (expectations / desires)

The rumours I've been hearing from the IM fan club is that there will be a Seventh Son based tour next year, with a couple warm-up show in Britain before about 10-15 shows in South America (including Rock in Rio), and then more shows in the Far East with a bunch of countries not done before or recently (including Australia and New Zealand).

Regardless, we'll see.  They better come to Montreal  :mad:
 
So if this is going to happen,it will be early next year and they will places where they played during Somewher back in time tour...and it should be a short tour but always with the same setlist of world tour 2008 at this point...because if they do a tour based on seventh son at this point they should release maiden england and do a tour over in the world.
But if this rumours will be confirmed they will play the same setlist of this tour in countries where they didn't play during the last tour.
And the they will enter the studio late in 2009.
And if this rumours is confirmed,new album will be released really in 2010 with related tour.
 
Even thou I am a new fan to Maiden.  How can they do a new tour and not play any hits from Powerslave?  In the Eddie Trunk interview, Bruce said that his all time favorite song is Rhime of the ancient Mariner. 

Also, when they start to tackle the 90's era.  Would they do Blaze Maiden songs as well?

Mysterio
 
Clairvoyant -> Yes, "credible" rumours say that they'll do another leg of SBIT Tour next year, but visit only countries they haven't visited so far on the tour.

Mysterio -> I think that when they do the '90s era, they'll probably do at least 3 or 4 Blaze songs, Dickinson has (since he came back in the band) sung Sign of the Cross, Lord of the Flies, Man on the Edge, Futureal and The Clansman. It would be unlikely for the band to cover just No Prayer and Fear of the Dark. Unless they decide to throw in Seventh Son into the mix, but somehow I think they've covered it with the last tour...

Although, they still have to re-issue Maiden England and make a documentary about the Somewhere In Time and Seventh Son albums...
 
If they do '88-'98, here are my predictions:

The Evil That Men Do
Heaven Can Wait
Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter
Fear of the Dark
Man on the Edge
The Clansman
Iron Maiden
Hallowed Be Thy Name
The Trooper
The Number of the Beast
Wasted Years

... and if we're lucky we'll get

Afraid to Shoot Strangers
Lord of the Flies
Futureal
Tailgunner
Infinite Dreams

instead of the pre-SSOASS songs that we've heard plenty in the last two History Tours.

Another leg - I guess that would mean more UK gigs as well?

If they do a full 90's tour, I hope they play three songs from each Blaze album. Anything less than four in total would be disappointing.

Ok,Bruce during an interview on IMTV hinted big things for next year, he said that they will be busy for a couple of months,he said that a new album would come in 2010 and so these rumours are credible.....so maybe that probably they will these short tour next year and then they will go directly into the studio.

You can hear it during the interview done on eddie trunk early this year :
http://www.eddietrunk.com/index.cfm?pid=402167  click on "eddie trunk backstage with bruce dickinson (3/08)"

I loved this one: "We're playing Chicago just to piss of those who are not in Chicago" ...

By the way, during the interview you can hear music, I assume it was the warm-up band. Was it Lauren w/band?

So, well, let's look forward to new album and then history part III ...

And hear Rod in the background when the host asks of a "Maiden reality show" ... "fuck off!"  :bigsmile:

I expect at least two songs per 1990-1998 album. I don't see the point of bringing HCW again, hopefully the SIT album will be left alone completely, unless they'll pick some track that hasn't been done for some time.

I read somewhere during the last tour, Bruce said that next album tour will feature some of their more recent material also.

:huh: source??? where did you read it ?? Is it material from brave new world,dance of death and a matter of life and death??
 
It'd better be.  :innocent: I was a little disappointed that they didn't play a single track from BNW or DOD during the AMOLAD tour (but it was my first Maiden concert so it was still a great experience). I hope they will play at least one song from each of their three most recent albums.

If they do that, I guess it would be the following: Brave New World, No More Lies and These Colours Don't Run.

Best realistic set for album tour: 5 songs from new album. Then the mandatory songs (IM, HBTN, The Trooper, NOTB, RTTH, FOTD - they will maybe leave one or two out?). Three-four songs from the three most recent albums. That gives 15-16 songs. A typical setlist would be 15-18 songs, aight? That means room for one or two surprises (if you can call "2 Minutes to Midnight" and "Heaven Can Wait" surprises  :P)

No, the Twickenham gig was the only one in the next two years. The rumour has it that they'll visit a couple of countries they missed out on during this year's tour. So, Zare, yes, the same setlist, but different countries, i.e. New Zealand and so on.
 
Nobody knows. There's no chance of knowing. There is absolutely no information to go with. Everything, absolutely everything we have here is speculation and rumours. What I meant to say is that you need to be a clairvoyant to know this sort of stuff.
