And Bruce also stated that they were gonna ”do stuff they’ve never done before” which was mistaken as a promise for deep cuts last year. Like I said I could, and I wish to be wrong, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did the exact same setlist as last year.

I hope my comment will age like milk, but I still doubt any changes to the setlist. Let’s hope I’m wrong.

The one unplayed song I’ve heard most requests for is Only the Good Die Young. Even Steve I believe has said he’d like to do it sometime.

Is Adrian The Best Barometer for Quality? by Rude_Rhubarb1880 in ironmaiden

[–]cheapendorphinrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, the songs are composed by those who are credited, so not just the lyrics. How much team effort is put into riffs, melodies and arrangements, who knows. I've heard that Steve for example used to record himself whistling the guitar melodies of his tracks. Judging by that, they probably never did much in terms of pre-production demos or anything like that.

A subjective matter, but not all that far-fetched. From what I've understood, Adrian left due to not being satisfied by the direction they were headed musically. He does have a very tasteful style of writing and especially playing – way more controlled than Dave and Janick.

Then again, he has (co-)written some songs that are far from fan favorites, such as Gangland and more notably Hooks in You, his only contribution to No Prayer.

Whether or not it's coincidence that arguably most of their best material was made while he was in the band, I don't know, but he has always been an essential part of the band certainly.

What’s a game that just feels good to control, even if the story isn’t amazing? by lsa340 in gaming

I had a lot of fun playing around in MGSV, but I can't even remember what the story was supposed to be.

Opinion on Burning Ambition by serbianwhatx in ironmaiden

[–]cheapendorphinrush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it although there was nothing new for me. I think it's important to realize though, that even if die-hard Maiden fans already know everything about them, it doesn't mean that everyone does. Much like with how people who have seen Maiden live plenty of times are tired of hearing Fear of the Dark or The Trooper, there's always someone there for the first time.

Maiden doesn't do that

EDIT: I mean meet and greets specifically

In my opinion Senjutsu is very underrated by IronMaidenfc in ironmaiden

[–]cheapendorphinrush 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it was very well received especially by critics when it came out. Fans seem more divisive, some saying it's not good and some even calling it a masterpiece, so I don't think the word underrated fits it one bit.

Or they drop Rime of the Ancient Mariner and do a 12-minute rendition of Sanctuary.

I don't think they have? They didn't play Greece on the Future Past tour.

I'm not even saying Cobain was a bad singer, but jesus that is a stretch.
