Oh boy...FOTD confirmed for this tour? I don't think a majority of the IMFC Forums are going to be too happy with this...and as for a possibility of no NOTB, they didn't play it on the first leg of the A Matter of Life and Death Tour so this wouldn't be the first time they didn't play the song live. If they don't play NOTB on this leg, then I could definitely see them bringing it back for next year's leg of the tour. FOTD is considered a staple but I really have no interest in seeing it live. I love it but I'd rather hear more 80s shit. This will be my first time seeing Maiden live, so I'll make this occasion they play FOTD an exception. I love FOTD and all, but I think I've heard too many live renditions of it that I've lost interest in seeing it live. I rather they bring back Flight of Icarus, Stranger in a Strange Land, Caught Somewhere In Time, or Infinite Dreams on this tour instead. At least play some more Somewhere In Time songs other than Wasted Years and Heaven Can Wait. I don't know if someone brought this up yet, but Dave mentioned (I think on Rockline) that they're "considering" playing Alexander the Great on this tour. I wouldn't bet on them playing it live yet, but it's something to think about considering the band mentioned that they'll play songs fans are "dying to hear", unless those songs we're dying to hear are basically staples that weren't on the Maiden England set. With Seventh son being played I don't think they will do Alexander we all want it. I seriously am confused why FOTD was on the SBIT and will be on the Seventh son of a Seventh son tour these concerts will be my 3rd, 4th and 5th I'm very excited It's been 4 years since my first show yet my love only grows.

Rod in Toronto Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 QUOTE (J2112YYZ @ Jun 18 2012, 10:10 AM) QUOTE (RodrigoAltaf @ Jun 18 2012, 09:57 AM) I read somewhere that they MAY try Deja Vu on this tour...I guess we have to wait a few more days to find out, huh? Where did you read that? I don't believe that song was ever played live. If Maiden doesn't play the song when they tour for that album, the song is never played live. I very much doubt this story is true. I read it in this blog: http://www.pageofmind.com/2012/05/set-list...gland-tour.html Sorry that it's in Portuguese, but you can see the song titles of the alleged setlist. It may not be true, but I'd say it's plausible. The blog entry itself says that the source is a group of Maiden fans called Maiden Bricks (notice the watermark in the setlist scan). Next to Clairvoyant it says (or DJV test). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the set for their 2010 tour leaked online a day or two before the opening show and it was correct. This set is missing one song though as Maiden has been doing 16 songs a set every tour for awhile now. So maybe there's still one more to be added?

Union 5-3992 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) Damn, I was hoping they'd sneak in When The Wild Wind Blows or something off their new album. For some reason I expect a small blend of new and old, though mostly old. Edited June 19, 2012 by Union 5-3992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beherit Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 As much as I dig new Maiden, it's all about the old shit for me. I do wish they'd have at least ONE song from Powerslave, but I can live with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beherit Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 And didn't they do Heaven Can Wait on the SBIT tour? Great song, but I'd rather hear Caught Somewhere in Time, Sea of Madness, or Stranger in a Strange Land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they played more Somewhere in Time songs. Caught Somewhere in Time, Sea of Madness, Alexander the Great and Stranger in a Strange Land are way overdue. IDK if it's true but I heard that Adrian has something to do with the reason why they "retired" Stranger in a Strange Land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bone Roller Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 if that set list is accurate, the place is going to be ape shit from Fear of the Dark through Run to the Hills. think i'd rather hear the Clairvoyant over Deja Vu in the encore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I think would be a decent idea is that they play both songs but place them somewhere in the middle of the main set and move Run To The Hills into the encore set, but switch places with Hallowed Be Thy Name so that it's now the last song of the show.

Stranger has a very small chance of coming back but there's no chance of the other two ever again. Sea Of Madness was only played a handful of times back in 1986 and then dropped for good. Caught Somewhere In Time was the opening song for that tour and then never played again. There's still one song missing in that leaked set and i'm pretty sure it's Two Minutes To Midnight.

ColdFireYYZ Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Anyone know if they're adding a second leg or playing more shows in the fall? I'm just getting into Maiden and I've heard they're great live. Unfortunetly they're not playing in Connecticut this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Maiden and their setlists are as predictable as anything when it comes to what old stuff they'll play. Especially when it's something like this tour where they're pratically telling you they're playing the set from the Seventh Son tour. Every song in that leaked set I knew would be played when the tour was announced. The only song I was a bit iffy on was Killers but if this set holds true, and it's very likely it will be, the song is getting played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Dave and Adrian have now confirmed at least five songs on the set: The Prisioner", "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son", "Moonchild", "Fear of the Dark" and "Iron Maiden". Here's the source: http://www.rocklineradio.com/replay/replay.php I also wish they played more of SIT songs. It's such a shame that Stranger in a Strange Land, Caught Somewhere in Time and Sea of Madness have not been played live for 26 years now! Deja Vu and Alexander the Great were never played live, and if I'm not wrong, they played The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner on the first shows of the tour in '86 and dropped it. To me SIT is the most unusual of all Maiden's albums. It may not be the best, which for me is still Powerslave, but it's the one that stands because it's quite different from the others. MAybe it's because Adrian gets more of the spotlight on that one, and he's by far the best guitar player Maiden has ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
