Maybe there are. But I'm new here, and the search engine didn't help me find any topics like this.
 
Too many songs to do a best of setlist I think :)
So instead of a best-of setlist, I'll do a setlist that I'd like to see when Maiden come down to Melbourne next Feb!
Honestly, I think 4-5 of their classics, 4 songs that have rarely been played / not played at all, 4 "classics" from the post reunion era excluding TFF, and maybe 4 songs from The Final Frontier would be a good balance between new and old.

1. Churchill's Speech / Aces High
2. The Longest Day
3. Still Life
4. Blood Brothers
5. Phantom of the Opera
6. Isle of Avalon
7. Afraid to Shoot Strangers

9. Dance of Death
10. Coming Home
11. Caught Somewhere in Time
12. Powerslave
13. Murders in the Rue Morgue
14. Rainmaker
15. The Talisman
16. Hallowed Be Thy Name
17. When the Wild Wind Blows

I can dream, can't I? :lol:

Not really a best of set list. Only half of the songs would make my top 20. these are just the songs i would like to experience live
 
I've noticed most posters have included Still Life (including me). Unfortunately, this chance of this song coming back into the set is between slim and none.
 
Clearly not. Although I would love to see them do a 25+ song set (like Rush does). Or play for over 2 hours. Or change the setlist from show to show. But I would settle for seeing Still Life!
 
I would like to see them do the same kind of format Metallica uses with their shows, always changing it a little from gig to gig, and throwing in obscure songs.

This is not “ McKindog’s favourites.” It’s a combination of the band’s most epic and most popular songs, with a nod to tracks that span a good cross-section of their career and work particularly well live.
I’ve tried to keep the set to a semi-reasonable length and feature songs they would seem likely to actually play, in an order that would keep fans guessing a bit.

Satellite 15…The Final Frontier
2 Minutes to Midnight
The Number of the Beast
The Evil That Men Do
Paschendale
The Wickerman
Wasted Years
These Colours Don’t Run
Brave New World
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Sign of the Cross
Fear of the Dark
The Phantom of the Opera
The Trooper
Run to the Hills
Running Free

Encore
Churchill’s Speech/Aces High
When the Wild Wind Blows
Hallowed Be Thy Name

Final Encore
Iron Maiden
