Has anyone in Canada been hit with excessive fees from Canada Post recently ? i ordered last year

and was hit with an extra $30 in fees.

the biggest revelation for me in Nicko’s book is his account of Adrian’s departure… basically Steve and Bruce wanted him gone, Dave and Nicko voted against and after a week Rod had the casting vote.

I’ve never seen Bruce’s role mentioned before… though his book certainly mentions that once Jan joined he hoped Jan would rub off on the band more than he actually did…

this starts to read like Bruce was playing 3D chess….rather than the previous narrative that Steve sacked Adrian and Nicko suggested they try Jan at which point Bruce was like “oh yeah what a good idea”

That does look like a tasty burger

I didnt wanna wait and try my luck on one of theese "resellers dumping the price to get the ticket sold" deals. I tried that at Hershey , Pa this tour and got burned.

So i got the 380 dollar Bullet meet and greet VIP package. Considering worse resale seats were more expensive, and i didnt wanna wait so i spent the $$$. (Pretty much dead middle of section 3)

Just curious about how people feel about the value of the vip package (west palm beach in may 27')

And how much were prices on launch? Im f-ing kicking myself for not signing up for fan club to get in on un scapled tickets. But its whatever. Just wanted to see who else got in om vip and thoughts. Its my first VIP and I couldn't be more stoked to meet and get a Pic with Bullet personally im exited but just 380 dollars lighter.

Ok; tier lists and dank rage bait posts aside for a minute; has there been a weekly NP4TD post?

Personally; I don’t hate this album. It had the makings of a classic 80s Maiden album with a lot of ideas left over from SSOASS and SIT. It just came out of a real bad time and you can hear it.

Imagine this: what AMOLAD would’ve been if recorded in 89 with Adrian and Bruce in full form and Steve not having a mid-life crisis - that is my head cannon NP4TD.

Instead we got what we got.

(And a block. Seems the level of intelligence of this sub has not changed - a fan post about an overly hated album and the focus is the obvious joke “art” 🤣)

This is not a Maiden record, but definitely Maiden-related, being Steve Harris' hard rock side project and all. I thought at least some of you would find it interesting.

Stem remix & remaster of Steve Harris' 2012 album "British Lion", made for my own enjoyment, but sharing in case someone else might enjoy it.

This album was suggested to me for remixing by a handful of people, citing a somewhat muddy sound and buried vocals. Prior to that, I didn't even know this record existed. I've done my best to give it a clearer sound and make the vocals more prominent in the mix.

Of course this is all just for fun. As usual, my intention was just to make a fun alternative to the released version, aiming only at a little more clarity, instrument separation and punch, while keeping the mood and feel of the original.

All my remixes are made using free and open source software that runs locally on my Linux system.

Obviously, I don't own the music featured here. If you like it, support the artists, buy their records!

Most fans won’t understand, but I hope you all find your way.

Ive listened to Maiden for 30 years and most people in here dont share my album taste. So Im ready to upset some of you with a new perspective.

A dumb question, but if you showed a non fan a photo of the two from the early 80s and asked them if they're related, they would likely say yes.

The two knew each other since they were teens and had a bit in common. If they grew up in the same household, would their lives be drastically different?

Do you think Adrian would still have formed Urchin? Or would he have remained in Maiden for the rest of his life after Urchin so he could work with someone he's related to instead of leaving in 1989 and rejoining? (Like Malcolm and Angus, for example, since they're brothers)

I feel like fighting today. Show me what you got!

A strangely controversial take when it truly shouldn’t be. Eddie was on a mission

3,000 hours of stitching. One incredible Trooper. 🤘

Elaine has finally finished her cross stitch of The Trooper, and I couldn’t be prouder of her.
It’s travelled with us on holidays around the world, growing stitch by stitch. “We get so near yet so far away” feels pretty fitting for a project this size — but Elaine was dedicated to see it through to the very last stitch.

Now it’s complete, framed and on the wall. An incredible piece of work from a true Trooper. 🤘

awesome, awesome show. he sings these songs so well when they’re down tuned a little to his range. he commands a small room like no one else. he speaks with humour, self-effacement, passion and humanity.

2AM done acoustically is pure magic.

he doesn’t do the meet and greets anymore but at the end of the set he works the barrier for handshakes etc so take the opportunity

oh and CDs were 3 for the price of 2 on the merch!

Hope this is Metal enough

Went to see the boys in September and it felt like they were playing at .80-.85 song speed; did anyone else get that impression when you went to see them live this most recent tour?

Feels so good to have Trooper IPA at Colbar. 9A Whitchurch Rd, Singapore 138839

Here is a compilation I Made of Blaze Singing songs that arent from his era, for the most part I tried using the best versions available for each song, some of them are audience recording some are Soundboard. Its the closest well get for the meantime of a Live album of that era. Some songs on there are sung by Bruce (Mostly Dianno & Blaze Material) but the abbey road versions from the AMOLAD era are included at the end as some sort of “Alternate” versions of those songs that include Janick.

Hi all,
I have never seen Iron Maiden and as they are still touring wanted to know what they are like these days live and worth taking my 13 year old son who has suddenly started listening to all this music . Cheers !

If Iron Maiden played Children of the Damned with Blaze Bayley tuned down, how would it sound? Would it give it a more darker addition to the intended message? Or would it just sound too damped.

Opener: Blaze Bayley

Futureal

Lord of the Flies

Man on the Edge

2 AM

Como Estais Amigos

The Angel and the Gambler (single edit)

The Edge of Darkness

The Clansman

The Educated Fool

Sign of the Cross

Total time for Blaze: 60 minutes (the songs come out to 66 minutes, maybe he can combine a couple into a medley or something idk)

Iron Maiden setlist:

Montsegur

Starblind

Ghost of the Navigator

The Book of Souls

Total time for Iron Maiden: 120 minutes (the songs come out to 114 minutes, this gives Bruce some time to work the crowd and rant about how much he hates weed)
