Worst Possible Setlist

MrKnickerbocker

clap hands
Everyone always asks about the best, most awesome, perfect, ideal, brilliant setlist that Maiden could ever play. But I'm curious: what would be your least ideal, most boring or annoying Maiden setlist? The setlist that would make you not even want to attend the gig.

Trying to keep it to a maximum of 16 songs, mine would be:

01. Invaders
02. Hooks in You
03. Quest for Fire
04. Another Life
05. Twilight Zone
06. Prodigal Son
07. The Aftermath
08. Sun and Steel
09. The Apparition
10. 2 A.M.
11. Fear is the Key
12. Weekend Warrior
13. The Assassin

ENCORE

14. Gangland
15. Drifter
16. The Angel and The Gambler (extended version w/ crowd participation)
 
1. Aces High
2. 2 Minutes to Midnight
3. Wrathchild
4. The Trooper
5. Can I Play with Madness
6. The Evil That Men Do
7. Run to the Hills
8. Wasted Years
9. Heaven Can Wait
10. The Number of the Beast
11. Phantom of the Opera
12. Fear of the Dark
13. Iron Maiden

14. Hallowed Be Thy Name
15. Sanctuary
16. Running Free
 
1. Aces High
2. 2 Minutes to Midnight

11. Phantom of the Opera
12. Fear of the Dark
13. Iron Maiden

I was going to post exactly this, albiet in a slightly different order :D
 
I absolutely not. I'd like to experience as much as possible of the Maiden catalogue, and a song can have a "new life", when played live.
 
I think it would be heartbreaking/hilarious if they started an encore by playing the Alexander The Great intro tape and then went straight into something boring like Run To The Hills :lol:

Wonder how many thought they were going into Alexander The Great on the Final Frontier tour but then it turned out to be the title track from the new album....:p
 
This should be fun.

01. Gangland (How bad of an opener would this be?)
02. New Frontier
03. The Assassin
04. I Live My Way
05. Sun and Steel
06. Gates of Tomorrow
07. The Aftermath
08. Lightning Strikes Twice
09. The Apparition
10. 2 A.M.
11. Invaders
12. Don't Look to the Eyes of a Stranger (Combine this with the next one for 20 minutes of terror)
13. The Angel and The Gambler (extended version w/ crowd participation) <--Do this before the Encore so people don't leave.

ENCORE

14. Drifter
15. Sanctuary
16. Weekend Warrior
 
Invaders??...INVADERS??!! You tellinn' me the lights go down, you're a few tall ales in, and then; DaNANA..DAdA!!!!!freakin INVADERS comes blaring at you? And you are the slightest bit in control?? Come on man!! That would blow me away. I would in fact have invaders opening the show in my DREAM setlist. That somg is outstanding. And at the top of the setlist to boot.....now hooks in you? Another story.
