I don't know. If they feel like acting fine by me, but don't whine when the critics hit.

I love that the new album by Unto Others is so all over the place. It even has a section with blastbeats which I didn't expect at all.

true about old fans only wanting to see iron maiden and not caring much for support acts which are not picked for old fans of the band, i just watched the aussie tour of maiden and killswitch was support which to be honest i never listened to them and wasnt expecting much as such but im into death metal and black metal and not so much nu metal or metal core im not sure what they are exactly but they were really good and i really enjoyed them, they were all fantastic musicians as i also play music, they pulled out a cover of dios holy diver and rocked it reallly good. im 50 next year and been into metal way before they came out and dont really listen to much new stuff but they were really good. maybe it educates some stuborn people like myself to check out some new bands. m/ m/ also iron maiden had so much energy i didnt expect to see that after all these wasted years…………………..m/ m/

Thanks for your updates man! As soon as you announced the new Iron Maiden tour I jumped on it and got some tickets. I saw them last in the Real Live Tour and freaked out to see them again!

12:23 Who says THAT? Obviously those that hate to share their favorite band with the rest of the world. No, to stay REAL you have to sell almost no records and perform in front of a selected few. Damn them for making music many in the world of metal like, selling albums and making money! Pah! Stay poor I say, show us that you’re REAL and not sellouts!

10:43 That is VERY true. My two favorite bands happen to be Iron Maiden and Metallica, but they usually have very good special guests. My favorite openers for Iron Maiden this far has been Helloween, Anthrax, Megadeth and Ghost. Metallica’s best guests I’ve seen is Slayer, Slipknot, and Ghost. My health isn’t the best so I really hope I get to see Iron Maiden one more time. They have always delivered as has Metallica, but if you force me to choose I go for Maiden every time.
🤘🏻🇸🇪🤘🏻

5:27 Perhaps the wife should stay out of the band’s business? They are grown men and can handle it without her help.
His attempt to scream louder than the guitar was pretty amusing to watch, even if it is a tragedy on some level.

IRON MAIDEN and METALLICA are OK, but I better recommend 2 vinyl releases to you. Medieval Death LP and free DVD and the Mordicus “Rights ‘n Trials” LP. If you want to know more Google [Medieval Death LP and free DVD + Mordicus “Rights ‘n Trials” LP], then check audio, videos etc. m/
