It's incredible to hear some people complain. I've gone to Maiden shows since the Powerslave tour in 1985 and it's unbelievable that the boys are still going strong after all of this time. Lineup changes, changes in music popularity, an entirely different industry structure, health challenges; they've weathered it all while never compromising. Most, if not all, of their peers have retired, died or can no longer perform. I attended the LA Forum show and had the time of my life, and I've seen over a dozen Maiden shows over the years. Did I hear some flubs..? I did...but my goodness, that's live music being performed without any backing tapes by men approaching 70! Or in Nicko's case, just past it...and he sounded thunderous on Tuesday. So enjoy them while you can because when they're gone, there will be no more like them. It's a privilege to be able to still see them perform at such a high level.

Well, try to travel from Europe to Australia, New Zealand, then to USA with 65 years of age, and let's see if you manage to not catch a cold or the flu once in a while 😅 there are bands that cancelled shows because a member catched the flu. It is what it is. It may be less obvious in those bands that are just screaming and grunting, or a pop band in which singing doesn't require much from your voice. Also, it doesn't sound to me like he'd be sick - maybe he's getting older and you compare to Bruce in his 30s?

As usual steph and her buddies get first row, company of 4... each show is 4 wristband and First to the barrier are 60 + 60 guest They are a company of 4, that means, either 2 won, they gave their buddies 2 wristbands....or all 4 got 4 wristbands from 4 other friends or it's something else But Steph and her buddies are very selfish blocking out other people not getting wristband and no first to the barrier What's the secret?

Sometimes you win the draw, and sometimes you miss out. We are lucky enough to have some awesome fellow Maiden fans as friends who gave us their spare FTTB wristbands.
