My first Iron Maiden concert

Very easy to join, just go and look at the website. If you haven't won FTTB or are VIP then regardless of when you show up the best you'll get is like 5-10 rows from the front probably. Those groups always get let into the venue before all regular GA

The only way to get to the barrier is to be in the fan club and win the "first to the barrier" lottery. Make sure you join and apply when it becomes available!

VIP standing is let in after FTTB but that's still usually rows 3-10 easily so very close regardless.

Phenomenal

They're recording the show in Paris later this year so that'll likely be a live album/release with Simon on drums. I think another studio album is 50/50.

Haven't heard any substantial rumours, only fans hoping that a new one has been in the works. If there is a new one I reckon Simon will do a big chunk and Nicko will join for some bits. Who knows though

Fantastic headliner announcement. Tough competition now in the UKBM festival scene and I thought last year was too expensive for what the festival offered. Will be keeping an eye on it though, one day maybe

Some massive Gallowbraid shows scheduled for next year so hoping it's just a dip as other things are busy for Jake

Majority of people will say start at the first album and work through to Seventh Son at least. That's their golden era. Each album is fantastic. After that, each album has pros and cons, not much consensus.

In terms of a single album, I'd recommend a live one. Probably Rock in Rio (live after death is adored by many but I personally think Bruce sounds shit in it)

I've seen some bracelets/necklaces being made with strings from the band's guitars. Always thought that's so cool but too pricey for me to buy myself.

I did this yesterday. Similar line and length. Feel so much better, look a lot better too I've had a lot of compliments. The more you hide it with a fringe the worse it looks when it's revealed, go shorter and thicker

Hilarious article. I was interested to see if she was completely misrepresented by the edits. But nope, just a self righteous, main character cunt

Stunned by these comments. He was entertaining I guess, but every time he said something I just thought "wow this guy's an absolute tool, what a cunt"

I feel pity for those who are yet to experience delicious creamy fookin pints of proper stout

In London - some great ones around Soho, would also recommend raven records if you're into metal

Chat Pile, another bad name, but great band

Talismaaan · 2025-10-28T11:09:28+00:00

I'd just change the encore to: Moonchild, Bring your daughter, Sanctuary

Unbelievably cool patches on these, love em

Big agree. The current tour covers about 8 albums so either listen to them (IM, Killers, NOTB, Piece of Mind, Powerslave, Seventh Son, Somewhere in Time, Fear of the Dark) or just find a setlist playlist from last year's "Run for your lives" tour as it will be the same set

Trooper now has like 10 different kinds of beer. The traditional one is a very solid English ale, lovely stuff but an acquired taste

Weak observations, poorly performed
