I think Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter is a must if this is a celebration of the first 9 albums, that song was their first UK #1 single so it makes perfect sense to be there. Also, sneaky pick but given the state of the world (on the verge of WWIII), there's a good chance for Afraid to Shoot Strangers preceeded by a Bruce speech about war being awful.
The Number of the Beast was the opener to the Give Me Ed Till I'm Dead Tour back in 2003, opinions on that were mixed. Hallowed was at 5 then as well so there are precedent for both of those things happening so Logan, in spite of everything, isn't completely nuts :)
This my wishlist for the next tour!! The Ides of march (tape) 1. Wrathchild 2. Remember Tomorrow 3. Die with your boots on 4. Bring your daughter to the slaughter 5. Phantom of the opera 6. Stranger in a strange land 7. Rime of the ancient mariner 8. Killers 9. The clairvoyant 10. Hallowed be thy name 11. The trooper 12. Fear of the dark 13. Iron Maiden Encore 14. The number of the beast 15. From here to eternity 16. Run to the hills Encore 2 17. Sanctuary
I truly hope they play some deep cuts and not just the same old songs. Following the auccess of Alexander, somewhere back in time and Stranger in a strange land on the latest tour, I think we might get some previously unplayed stuff 🤞
1 Prowler 2 2 Minutes to Midnight 3 Wrathchild 4 Phantom of the Opera 5 The Trooper 6 Killers 7 Rime of the Ancient Mariner 8 Wasted Years 9 Run to the Hills 10 The Evil That Men Do 11 Hallowed be thy Name 12 Fear of the Dark 13 Iron Maiden 14 The Number of the Beast 15 The Clairvoyant 16 Running Free I agree that the opening song is the hardest one to predict this year. Prowler is a long shot as an opener but I just think it would be so cool if they opened the set by taking us back to the very beginning - first song on the debut.
The setlist I would love to see 1. The Number of the Beast 2. 2 Minutes to Midnight 3. The Trooper 4. Remember Tomorrow 5. Killers 6. Infinite Dreams 7. Wasted Years 8. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 9. Phantom of the Opera 10. Bring Your Daughter 11. Hallowed Be Thy Name 12. Fear of the Dark 13. Iron Maiden Encore 14. Murders in the Rue Morgue 15. To Tame a Land 16. Run to the Hills

Let’s first examine the facts; First, Rod did state in the press release that there will be songs which they haven’t played in many years, so that gets me excited. Secondly, we can guarantee at least 5 songs, evidence based: Phantom, Run to the Hills, Fear of the Dark, Trooper, and Iron Maiden. That leaves us with about 11 songs. I also doubt there will be anything from No Prayer, and nothing additional from Fear of the Dark. That now leaves us with 7 albums. It’s also very possible that Somewhere in Time might be completely left out, hence freeing up more space My strongest next guess would be Rime. Followed by Hallowed, and 2 Min. I also wouldn’t put it past them to have the first two albums play a bigger role than we might think. I could certainly see the opener be Ides of March Intro followed by Murders in the Rue Morgue, like they did in 2005. And I agree that almost any opener would be better than Aces High at this point. Out of practicality, they will need some slowdown songs in between at some point. I say Children of the Damned is the my best bet here. I would lean towards Remember Tomorrow, but I feel that they will fulfill the first two albums with the remaining hits instead. As far as more obscure long-awaited treats, I agree Infinite Dreams has a chance since it would just make sense in the grand scheme of things. My hot take pick (within reason) is To Tame a Land… another one of Titanium Tart’s featured songs which Nicko can handle. Songs (within reason) which I would love to see, yet unfortunately are still a long shot in my opinion, include: Clairvoyant, Moonchild, Be Quick or be Dead, 22 Acacia Avenue, Still Life, and Total Eclipse. My no-shot-in-hell pumpkin wish would be any of the instrumental songs (Gengis Khan, Transylvania, Losfor Words) Any thoughts folks?

Thanks for the enjoyable show. I like the predictions. Here is my setlist. I'm looking forward to the US tour dates for '26. 1. Be Quick or Be Dead 2. 2 Minutes to Midnight 3. Wrathchild 4.

I’m kinda disappointed they didn’t whip out Sun and Steel on Future Past considering the samurai theme. But I guess they’re determined to not play the unplayed songs with the exception of Alexander.

What i think a possible setlist could be and I've taken inspiration from the 2013 maiden england tour leg so its 17 songs which i think is realistic as its slightly longer than usual with it being a special event but its not ridiculous like 20 songs. Ive also decided not to add any songs from somewhere in time as thats been heavily toured recently. 1 - Murders in the Rue Morgue - i think they'll open with this similar to how they did on beast over Hammersmith with a tape playing the intro and then they burst on stage after the drum fill 2 - wrathchild - it's a staple that hasn't been played in a while and works well as a second song 3 - infinite dreams - it hasn't been played in a while and they normally have one rarity per show. If Alexander can make it, this can 4 - 2 Minutes to Midnight - its a classic and works well to get the audience renergised after a slower song 5 - Total Eclipse - hasn't been played since beast on the road and with it being rereleased the other year, the band clearly don't want people to forget it 6 - the trooper - classic upbeat song. They won't miss this one out 7 - Phantom of the Opera - its in the marketing so it'll be played. Works well in the middle with the other epics 8 - killers - hasn't been played in a while and the Eddie clearly has some killers inspiration 9 - bring your daughter to the slaughter - its there only number 1 over here and its a good audience participation song 10 - rime of the ancient mariner - one of the bands favourite songs and hasn't been played in a while so it'll be in the set 11 - hallowed be thy name - hasn't been played for a few years and is a live classic 12 - fear of the dark - great live song they always play 13 - the number of the beast - great song that people have been missing recently 14 - iron maiden - no explanation necessary Encore 15 - tailgunner - with the opening line being trace your way back 50 years, i think its a good shout and works in a similar way to aces high 16 - run to the hills - name of the tour and is a fan favourite 17 - running free - good closer and the video seems to take place in the same area as the single art
I Frkn Love from here to Eternity and i am with you Steph Ps I think actually from every other people i heard and seen on youtube their is a big chance that they will play Infinite Dreams, Killers, To Tame a Land, Total Eclipse, Still Life, one deep cut or one classic from Somewhere in time, one deep cut from fear of the dark and maybe a live debut etc because fans have asked them to play these songs and some deep cuts from the albums and what the band have wanted to play for a long time like Steve wants to play Only the Good Die Young and Bruce wants to play Total Eclipse and it is a perfect opportunity to play the songs i said and deep cuts and songs what the band wants and i think we are going to be surprised and be wrong on many things for this tour i hope. Here is a stretch but when i read the Powerslave 40 notes from Steve he said that people really like a deep cut like The Dueller and he wrote it and now he know it has recognition from the band from the fans again and maybe now they play it as a live debut with Rime Of The Mariner but that is a stretch but i think the setlists was good ideas for what they are going to be playing
You guys are really cool, been following you a while now. Hope you go to Europe next year, and maybe I'll see you! Weekend Warrior would be great to hear live. I saw their Fear on the road tour in 92 and they didn't play that then. ❤
I'd take James setlist, but open with Steph's Moonchild and drop Ace's High. Also, add Logan's Murders in the Rue Morgue in the encore between Hallowed and Run. Great video, as always! Loved the cameo from your cat!
I feel like them mentioning “Iron Maiden-Fear of the Dark” is somewhat a hint that they’re gonna play more songs from that album so here’s my setlist -Prowler -Wratchild -Killers -Tailgunner -Trooper -Phantom -Wasting Love -The Evil That Men Do -Rime of the Ancient Mariner -TNOTB -Iron Maiden -Remember Tomorrow -Fear of the Dark -Run to the Hills -Sanctuary
I wish they would play "The Prophecy" From Seventh son. Such an underrated song. Very complicated to play. By the way, They're going to play "Where Eagles Dare" as their opener. Either that or "Invaders".
As much as I want them to play Invaders, that is never going to happen. Where Eagles Dare is a good pick, but I don’t think they will bring it back again, considering they played on Legacy. Of course it is possible, but I just don’t see it.
@@CBT5777 Because Steve doesn’t like it or Gangland. Plus they’ve never played either song live and they are *generally* considered the weakest songs on the album, which is definitely the case for Gangland, but I think Invaders is one of their most under appreciated songs. I mean they did play Alexander, but that was after years of the fans begging for it. I could be wrong, but I am not getting my hopes up.
Here's my prediction (so far):. - Ides of march (1:48) (TAPE) - Murders in the rue Morgue (4:14) - Prowler (3:56) - Wrathchild (2:54) - Killers (4:58) - The Evil That Men Do (4:33) - Trooper (4:10) - Bring Your Daughter... (4:42) - Phantom of the Opera (7:02) - Rime Of The Ancient Mariner (13:45) - Fear Of The Dark (7:16) - Iron Maiden (3:43)
- Number of the Beast (4:25) - Hallowed Be Thy Name (7:08) - Running Free (3:22)
I might be too dreamy, but there are singles that have to be "must do's" for this tour, so there's no running from, "trooper", "fear" (gosh I'm so tired of that song)... Any of you think I'm being a bit too hopeful?
Intro tape - Transylvania (up until about the 1:04 mark) 1. Ides of March/Wrathchild 2. 2 minutes to midnight 3. Tailgunner 4. Afraid to shoot strangers 5. The trooper 6. Die with your boots on 7.

Run to the hills The only reason I say "Sun and Steel" is based on the pagoda in the background of the tour poster lol.
Doctor Doctor/Transylvania intro tape 1. Murders in the Rue Morgue(with intro on tape) 2. Wrathchild 3. Run to the Hills 4. Infinite Dreams 5. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son 6. The Trooper 7.

One idea I had which would be incredible ... somewhere mid set they play Charlotte The Harlot into 22 Acacia Avenue into From Here To Eternity. The Charlotte saga
1. The Number of the Beast 2. 2 Minutes to Midnight 3. Wrathchild 4. Bring Your Daughter... To the Slaughter 5. Phantom of the Opera 6. The Trooper 7. The Evil That Men Do 8. Wasted Years 9.

Intro: The Ides of March 1. Be Quick or Be Dead 2. Wrathchild 3. Die With Your Boots On 4. Afraid to Shoot Strangers 5. Tailgunner 6. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 7. Sea of Madness 8.

Here is my shot on the dark regarding how the set list might work (considering this is basically another History tour). 1.Sanctuary/Be Quick or Be Dead (would love for them to start the same way the Fear of the Dark Tour openened but very unlikely, so the other and more likely choice could be Sanctuary) 2. Wratchchild 3. The Trooper 4. Infinite Dreams/Children of the Damned/Wasting Love 5. Phantom of the Opera 6. The Number of the Beast 7. 2 Minutes to Midnight 8. The Evil that Men Do 9. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 10. Wasted Years (yes, they played it on Future Past, I just can't think they will leave Somewhere in Time off) 11. Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter 12. Fear of the Dark 13. Iron Maiden 14. Run to the Hills 15. Hallowed Be Thy Name 16. Running Free
I saw them during the "Somewhere Back in Time" Tour, the "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" Tour, and then the "No Prayer for the Dying" Tour. They started to lose their popularity in the 1990s, at least in the United States, during that tour, which I watched them play in a college gymnasium and not a big Sports Arena. However, they regained their popularity over the years. Then I saw them again in the 2008 Somewhere Back in Time ( or whatever it was called) tour, and then in 2018/19, I need to remember what that Tour was called. I'm was looking forward to seeing them on this New tour. In my opinion, they could skip any songs from *Fear of the Dark* and *No Prayer for the Dying*, but they'll probably still play "Fear of the Dark" since it's the best song on that album. "Die with Your Boots On" would be awesome to hear live again. I would assume they will play "Run to the Hills" because they seem to have skipped it numerous times, and the tour is called *Run for Your Lives*. We’ll likely hear less from *Stranger in a Strange Land* since they performed five songs from that album this time, but who knows? Anything is possible!
Infinite Dreams, Wasting Love and Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter will be on the setlist. Tailgunner will open the show with its opening line of Bruce whipping us up to “trace your way back 50 years”
My setlist is 1. Be quick or be dead 2. Holy smoke 3. 22. Acacia Avenue 4.Killers 5. The Trooper 6. To tame a Land ( Dream) Seventh son or mariner 7. Infinite Dreams 8. Run to the hills 9. Die with your Boots on or Still Life 10. Wasting Love 11. Assasin or no prayer for the dying 12. Number of the beast 13. Iron Maiden Encores 1. Tailgunner 2. From here to eternity 3. Sanctuary
My prediction 1. Murders in the rue morgue (Bruce mentioned he wants that song back and this is also a classic opener) 2. The troooper 3. Die with your Boots On (a 2nd piece of mind song that was not played on legacy of the beast tour, and it is a bands favorite) 4. Afraid to shoot strangers 5. Killers (also mentioned by Bruce, and the promo shows Eddie with an axe) 6. Rime of the ancient mariner (also mentioned by Bruce, and since it takes more then 13 minutes no other powerslave song will be played to leave room for other albums) 7. Number of the beast 8. Phantom of the opera 9. Wasted years (1 song from SiT since they play more of that album on the current future past tour, and the lyrics fit a 50th anniversity well) 10. Infinite dreams (a fans request) 11. Fear of the Dark 12. Bring your daughter to the slaughter (there will be one song from NOftD and this one is most likely) 13. Iron Maiden ---------------------------- 14. Hallowed be thy name 15. Only the good die young (Steve Harris said he wants to play this song live) 16. Run to the hills ( the last words are, run for your lives...)
Here’s what I think… 1. Be Quick or Be Dead (I think Nikki will surprise people) 2. Number of the Beast 3. Wrathchild 4. 2 Minutes to Midnight 5. The Clairvoyant or The Evil That Men Do 6. Phantom of the Opera 7. Wasted Years of Heaven Can Wait 8. Hallowed Be Thy Name 9. Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter (it’s their only no 1 UK single!!!!) 10. 22 Acacia Avenue or Prowler 11. Killers 12. Run to the Hills 13. Fear of the Dark 14. Iron Maiden 15. Running Free I can’t see Mariner being played full stop. I think there will be a lot of similarities to the A Real Live Tour which is a varied set of your look at it.
0. Ides of March 1. Wrathchild (or God please Murders in Rue) 2. Prowler 3. Remember Tomorrow 4. Trooper 5. 2 minutes to Midnight 6. Phantom of the Opera 7. 666 8. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 9. Hallowed 10. Killers 11. The evil that man do (or IDreams) 12. Fear of the Dark 13. Iron Maiden 14. Bring you Daughter 15. Wasted Years 16. Run to the Hills More focus on Di’Anno era plus Mariner plus just one track from PoM (was on Legacy) and SiT (was recently). As songs are shorter I expect 16 songs. Low chances for Aces High, Murders (drum intro too difficult), epics other than Mariner and Phantom
Intro - Transylvania 1 - Prowler 2 - 2 Minutes to Midnight 3 - The Evil That Men Do 4 - Killers 5 - Phantom of the Opera 6 - Number of the Beast 7 - Revelations 8 - Rime of the Ancient Mariner 9 - Bring Your Daughter 10 - Trooper 11 - Fear of the Dark 12 - Wasted Years 13 - Iron Maiden 14 - Hallowed Be Thy Name 15 - Wrathchild 16 - Run to the Hills
"I have come to the conclusion that it is.....still subpar". Funny and true. The fun thing about No Prayer is that a lot of the soiund is very close to Seventh but it just does not compare, which would have been a miracle.
my prediction (or wish list): 1. Be Quick Or Be Dead 2. Tailgunner 3. Infinite Dreams 4. Heaven Can Wait or Alexander The Great 5. Rime Of The Ancient Mariner 6. Revelations or To Tame A Land 7. The Number Of The Beast 8. Killers 9. Phantom Of The Opera 10. Only The Good Die Young 11. Hallowed Be Thy Name 12. Fear Of The Dark 13. Iron Maiden Encore: 14. Wrathchild 15. The Trooper 16. Run To The Hills (17. Sanctuary only at London Stadium) or 1. Phantom Of The Opera 2. Killers 3. The Number Of The Beast 4. Revelations or To Tame A Land 5. Rime Of The Ancient Mariner 6. Heaven Can Wait or Alexander The Great 7. The Clairvoyant 8. No Prayer For The Dying 9. Afraid To Shoot Strangers 10. Only The Good Die Young 11. Hallowed Be Thy Name 12. Fear Of The Dark 13. Iron Maiden Encore: 14. Wrathchild 15. The Trooper 16. Run To The Hills (17. Sanctuary only at London Stadium)
this is so fun, speculating and speculating... my "semi-realistic" picks - I think there will be something from Somewhere in Time though... I'm taking my kids and I'm kinda hoping they'd do Stranger again, but probably not 🙂 Be Quick or Be Dead Wrathchild The Evil That Men Do 2Minutes to Midnight The Trooper Infinite Dreams Killers Phantom of the Opera Bring Your Daughter... to the Slaughter The Number of the Beast Fear of the Dark Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name Run to the Hills Aces High I wish I could have found a way to get Mariner in there, and maybe they will skip No Prayer album all together after all... who knows, but hey, this is fun speculating! a good question though - if they play 2 nights, will they do something different on night 2? or is Maiden now so perfectly synched up they would just play the same show twice... ?
My realistic setlist for RFYL: 0 - Ides of March 1 - Murders in the Rue Morgue 2 - Wrathchild 3 - Remember Tomorrow 4 - 2 Minutes 5 - Phantom 6 - Trooper 7 - Afraid to Shoot Strangers 8 - Clairvoyant 9 - Rime 10 - NOTB 11 - FOTD 12 - Iron Maiden 13 - Hallowed 14 - Run to the Hills 15 - Sanctuary I’d love to include songs like Infinite Dreams, Prowler, and 22 Acacia Avenue, but there’s just so many bangers from the “golden era” that it’s hard to pick 😭
It's a good prevision. But I think they will play at least one song from No Prayer for the Dying. Probably Bring your daughter to the Slaughter. My bet: 01.Be quick 02.Killers 03.Trooper 04.2 Minutes 05.To tame a Land 06.Remember Tomorrow 07.Phantom of the Opera 08.Infinite Dreams 09.The Clairvoyant 10.Rime of the Ancient Mariner 11.Bring your daughter to the Slaughter 12.Number 13.Fear 14.Iron Maiden Bis 15.Tailgunner 16.Run to the hills 17.Halloweed be thy name
1. Where Eagles Dare 2. Wrathchild 3. 2 Minutes To Midnight 4. Remember Tomorrow 5. Phantom of the Opera 6. The Trooper 7. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 8. Infinite Dreams 9. Alexander the Great 10. Fear of the Dark 11. The Number of the Beast 12. Iron Maiden ENCORE: 13. Hallowed Be Thy Name 14. Run to the Hills 15. Running Free
I'm leaning towards Ides of March/Murders as the opener BUT I do like The Number of the Beast in there now that it was mentioned. And you may not agree but a wildcard for me, with the right intro, a great opener would be Prowler.
I think each your setlists had great options (specifically Killers, Children of the Damned, The Evil That Men Do and Die With Your Boots On) but overall I'll lean slightly towards Steph's setlist. With not really much thought due to how difficult this is here's my unlikely, oddball take: 1. Run to the Hills 2. Wrathchild 3. Die With Your Boots On 4. Phantom of the Opera 5. Killers 6. Remember Tomorrow 7. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner 8. The Trooper 9. The Evil That Men Do 10. The Number of the Beast 11. Fear of the Dark 12. Iron Maiden ENCORE: 13. Bring Your Daughter...To the Slaughter 14. Sanctuary 15. Hallowed Be Thy Name
What about opening with 'be quick or be dead'? That would be a really unexpected but really good opener (assuming Nicko can still play it given the very fast pace). Cheers from Princeton, NJ 🤘
I don't have a list, but the songs I would really like to hear would be Phantom of the Opera, The Duelist, Charlotte the Harlott, Deja Vu and Hallowed Be Thy Name.
As for opening track how about tailgunner they could have the back end of a Lancaster bomber with the machine guns firing with Eddie behind them with lights going crazy
I like seeing these setlist speculations. I think on this tour, we'll be getting at least one song from each of those first nine albums and it'll be a mixture of hits and deep cuts. Here's my prediction / wish list: Prowler Wrathchild Phantom of the Opera Sea of Madness Infinite Dreams The Trooper Killers Hallowed Be Thy Name Bring Your Daughter To the Slaughter Rime of the Ancient Mariner Deja-Vu The Number of the Beast To Tame A Land Fear of the Dark Iron Maiden Encore: Only the Good Die Young Run To the Hills Running Free
Two minutes to midnight, Running Free, Wrathchild, The evil that men do, Phantom of the opera, Number of the beast, Bring your daughter to the slaughter, wasted years, aces high, killers, Fear of the dark, sanctuary/ run to the hills / iron maiden

Afraid to Shoot Strangers 9. Powerslave (this one i feel is the most iffy) 10. To Tame A Land (this would be 9 if no powerslave) 11. Heaven Can Wait 12. Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter 13.

Run to of the hills That’s what would love to see
My first impression was this is Early Days Part 4. I think this will have at least decent representation from No Prayer and FOTD. For Janick as well. Just yesterday I was listening to Fates Warning singing along, it is good. I'd like to hear No Prayer, love that song. I think they'll bring something new back from FOTD. From Here to Eternity? Love to hear Judas Be My Guide debut though. But if there is a debut, I think it will be Only the Good Die Young. Then should be quite a few songs from the first two albums for Paul.
Running Free will be the closer. It will go over really well especially after Paul died. Hasn’t been played since 2011, I think. It rocks as a closer on En Vivo.
1. Be Quick or be Dead 2. Wrathchild 3. Two Minutes to Midnight 4. Phantom of the Opera 5. Remember Tomorrow 6. The Trooper 7. Killers 8. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 9. The Number of the Beast 10. Bring Your Daughter 11. Fear of the Dark 12. Iron Maiden 13. Hallowed be Thy Name 14. Run to the Hills 15. Sanctuary
My Setlist prediction 1- be quick or be dead 2- wrathchild 3- 2 minutes for the midnight 4-infinite dreams 5-killers 6-wasted years 7-number of the beast 9-rime of the ancient mariner 10-phantom of the opera 11- bring your daughter to the slaughter 12- fear of the dark 13- iron maiden Encore 14- Seventh son of a Seventh son 15- the troopers 16- run to the Hills
honestly I am hoping the band will avoid playing the songs people are expecting to hear. I would love to hear them play Purgatory, Prodigal Son, Prowler, Only the Good Die Young, Back in the Village, Flash of the Blade, To Tame a Land, Sun and Steel, The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, Fates Warning, The Assassin just to name a few.
I'd love for that to be the case but with them selling stadiums I think there is a good handful of songs people are going to expect to hear, and the band will play. I do think they will deliver some good surprises, I just don't think it will be many due to the setlist length
Iron Maiden is my fav band . They’ve made my fav metal album in somewhere in time. With that said I don’t want no more new albums. The older I get the more I just want old maiden and not new maiden material .
Be Quick or Be Dead Flash of the Blade Children of the Damned Infinite Dreams Phantom of the Opera Number of the Beast Remember Tomorrow Flight of Icarus To Tame A Land Powerslave Killers Fear of the Dark** Iron Maiden** Wasted Years Hallowed be Thy Name Run to the Hills** No Rime (I think it will come back for an actual farewell tour) and this tour will make room for a couple extra lesser played songs **These are the three guranteed songs This is not my dream set, just a feeling what they will go for. I'd like Revelations in the set but don't see it unfortunately
Surprised no one thinks be quick or be dead could be an opener. Nice, short, sharp 4 minutes, can still be played by Nicko similar to how he played caught somewhere in time a touch differently. Agree mainly about the staples, but there has to be at least one or two surprises like remember tomorrow or infinite dreams. Id love strange world, to tame a land and only the good die young, but I know I'm dreaming there...
Here is my set list: Deja vu The fugative Prowler Still life Bring me your daughter Killers No prayer for the dying The number of the beast Iron maiden 2 minutes 2 midnight/ the evil that men do Phantom of the opera Hallowed be thy name Encore : Afraid to shoot strangers Charlotte the harlot Only the good die young
I have a real problem with From Here To Eternity, its a skipped track every time when listening to that album. A bit left field but would they play Be Quick Or Be Dead again ! It kind of fits the tour vibe that they are promoting. It works as an opener as well. I'd love to hear Back In The Village. What a track!
1 Prowler 2Number of the Beast 3 Sea of Madness 4 Wrathchild 5 To Tame a land 6 Be Quick or be Dead 7 No Prayer for the Dying 8 Rime of the Ancient Mariner 9 Evil that Men Do 10 Phantom of The Opera 11 Trooper 12 Hallowed be Thy Name 13 Iron Maiden. Encore 14 2 Minutes to Midnight 15 Run to The Hills 16 Fear of the Dark. Start with song 1 album 1, end last song of Album 9
They have to play To Tame A Land, Lonliness, Deja Vu, Sea Of Madness, Flash Of The Blade, Duelist, Infinite Dreams, Quest For Fire lol :) Mother Russia, Tailgunner.
In 2005 they played their best setlist imo. The first 4 albums. Except they forgot innocent excile and to tame a land. Skip run to the hills, Fear of the dark , Trooper and Sanctuary please
My prediction is this, with the “surprise” song being 22 Acacia Avenue … enough new/different with heavy focus on the first 3 albums … plus all the classics they always add in (like Iron Maiden - Eddie Comes out): The ides of March/Wrathchild Tailgunner 2 Minutes to Midnight The Trooper Phantom of the Opera 22 Acacia Avenue Killers Rime of the Ancient Mariner Hallowed by they Name Fear of the Dark Iron Maiden Aces High Number of the Beast Run to the Hills Running Free 🤓
I always thought running free was the first single ever released. Prowler is obviously the first song on the debut but in terms of songs released I always thought running free was the first
I'd love to see the Charlotte the Harlot trilogy played back to back. Phantom of the Opera, Killers, Purgatory. Invaders or Gangland. To Tame a Land. Back in the Village. The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner. The Clairvoyant. The Mercenary or Nomad.
1. Murders in the Rue Morgue 2. Wrathchild 3. 2 Minutes to Midnight 4. Revelations 5. The Evil That Men Do 6. Infinite Dreams 7. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 8. The Trooper 9. Wasted Years 10. The Clairvoyant 11. Tailgunner 12. Phantom of the Opera 13. Fear of the Dark 14. Iron Maiden 15. Aces High 16. The Number of the Beast 17. Hallowed Be Thy Name 18. Running Free
Tailgunner 2 minutes to midnight Wrathchild Die with your boots on Phantom of the opera Remember tomorrow Number of the Beast Rime of the ancient mariner Run to the hills Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter Fear of the Dark Iron maiden Hallowed be thy name Evil that men do Sanctuary Running Free Im hoping there will be a few more obscure tunes Anyway it will be great whatever they do
Maybe like this In chronologically order: Running Free Phantom of the Opera Iron Maiden Sanctuary Wratchild Killers Run to the hills Hallowed by thy name Number of the Beast The trooper Die with your boots on 2 minutes The evil that me do Tailgunner From here to eternity Fear of the dark Normally they chose 15 songs
1. Wrathchild 2. 2 Minutes to Midnight 3. The Trooper 4. Flight of Icarus 5. Rime of the Ancient Mariner 6. Wasted Years 7. Powerslave 8. The Number of the Beast 9. Hallowed Be Thy Name 10. Fear of the Dark 11. Iron Maiden Encore: 12. Run to the Hills 13. Running Free 14. Sanctuary
I think "Be Quick or Be Dead" might make a surprise opener.
Most unlikely that could end up in the set? "Total Eclipse"
Plot twist, Steve is watching this video cause he doesn't know what the fuck to pick
I’d love to see Bruce do Strange World for a breather song. A brand new take on that song would be awesome.
I would love to have them squeeze in The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner
I think Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter is a must if this is a celebration of the first 9 albums, that song was their first UK #1 single so it makes perfect sense to be there. Also, sneaky pick but given the state of the world (on the verge of WWIII), there's a good chance for Afraid to Shoot Strangers preceeded by a Bruce speech about war being awful.
The Number of the Beast was the opener to the Give Me Ed Till I'm Dead Tour back in 2003, opinions on that were mixed. Hallowed was at 5 then as well so there are precedent for both of those things happening so Logan, in spite of everything, isn't completely nuts :)
This my wishlist for the next tour!!

Great video guys. I think Afraid To Shoot Strangers is a real possibility in the set list
Saw the Ultimate Sin tour twice. Manchester Apollo and Castle Donington Festival. Great shows👍
I truly hope they play some deep cuts and not just the same old songs. Following the auccess of Alexander, somewhere back in time and Stranger in a strange land on the latest tour, I think we might get some previously unplayed stuff 🤞
1 Prowler
2 2 Minutes to Midnight
3 Wrathchild
4 Phantom of the Opera
5 The Trooper
6 Killers
7 Rime of the Ancient Mariner
8 Wasted Years
9 Run to the Hills
10 The Evil That Men Do
11 Hallowed be thy Name
12 Fear of the Dark
13 Iron Maiden
14 The Number of the Beast
15 The Clairvoyant
16 Running Free
I agree that the opening song is the hardest one to predict this year. Prowler is a long shot as an opener but I just think it would be so cool if they opened the set by taking us back to the very beginning - first song on the debut.
I also chose Prowler as the opener but with Transylvania as the intro music.
Not a bad setlist, I would like to see 2 Minutes to Midnight, Wasted Years, Run to the Hills, Running Free swapped out for some deep cuts
The setlist I would love to see
1. The Number of the Beast
2. 2 Minutes to Midnight
3. The Trooper
4. Remember Tomorrow

Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life
Inflatable Eddie: Live After Death
Walkout Eddie: Don't Know
Let’s first examine the facts;
First, Rod did state in the press release that there will be songs which they haven’t played in many years, so that gets me excited.
Secondly, we can guarantee at least 5 songs, evidence based: Phantom, Run to the Hills, Fear of the Dark, Trooper, and Iron Maiden.
That leaves us with about 11 songs.
I also doubt there will be anything from No Prayer, and nothing additional from Fear of the Dark.
That now leaves us with 7 albums. It’s also very possible that Somewhere in Time might be completely left out, hence freeing up more space
My strongest next guess would be Rime. Followed by Hallowed, and 2 Min.
I also wouldn’t put it past them to have the first two albums play a bigger role than we might think. I could certainly see the opener be Ides of March Intro followed by Murders in the Rue Morgue, like they did in 2005. And I agree that almost any opener would be better than Aces High at this point.
Out of practicality, they will need some slowdown songs in between at some point. I say Children of the Damned is the my best bet here. I would lean towards Remember Tomorrow, but I feel that they will fulfill the first two albums with the remaining hits instead.
As far as more obscure long-awaited treats, I agree Infinite Dreams has a chance since it would just make sense in the grand scheme of things. My hot take pick (within reason) is To Tame a Land… another one of Titanium Tart’s featured songs which Nicko can handle.
Songs (within reason) which I would love to see, yet unfortunately are still a long shot in my opinion, include: Clairvoyant, Moonchild, Be Quick or be Dead, 22 Acacia Avenue, Still Life, and Total Eclipse.
My no-shot-in-hell pumpkin wish would be any of the instrumental songs (Gengis Khan, Transylvania, Losfor Words)
Any thoughts folks?
Everything you said makes sense
Epic comment. So much to unpack there. Thanks for the awesome, thoughtful analysis. IMHO, the more we get from Powerslave, the better.

Too long. Think is going 16 songs
What i think a possible setlist could be and I've taken inspiration from the 2013 maiden england tour leg so its 17 songs which i think is realistic as its slightly longer than usual with it being a special event but its not ridiculous like 20 songs. Ive also decided not to add any songs from somewhere in time as thats been heavily toured recently.
1 - Murders in the Rue Morgue - i think they'll open with this similar to how they did on beast over Hammersmith with a tape playing the intro and then they burst on stage after the drum fill
2 - wrathchild - it's a staple that hasn't been played in a while and works well as a second song
3 - infinite dreams - it hasn't been played in a while and they normally have one rarity per show. If Alexander can make it, this can
4 - 2 Minutes to Midnight - its a classic and works well to get the audience renergised after a slower song
5 - Total Eclipse - hasn't been played since beast on the road and with it being rereleased the other year, the band clearly don't want people to forget it
6 - the trooper - classic upbeat song. They won't miss this one out
7 - Phantom of the Opera - its in the marketing so it'll be played. Works well in the middle with the other epics
8 - killers - hasn't been played in a while and the Eddie clearly has some killers inspiration
9 - bring your daughter to the slaughter - its there only number 1 over here and its a good audience participation song
10 - rime of the ancient mariner - one of the bands favourite songs and hasn't been played in a while so it'll be in the set
11 - hallowed be thy name - hasn't been played for a few years and is a live classic
12 - fear of the dark - great live song they always play
13 - the number of the beast - great song that people have been missing recently
14 - iron maiden - no explanation necessary
Encore
15 - tailgunner - with the opening line being trace your way back 50 years, i think its a good shout and works in a similar way to aces high
16 - run to the hills - name of the tour and is a fan favourite
17 - running free - good closer and the video seems to take place in the same area as the single art
I Frkn Love from here to Eternity and i am with you Steph Ps I think actually from every other people i heard and seen on youtube their is a big chance that they will play Infinite Dreams, Killers, To Tame a Land, Total Eclipse, Still Life, one deep cut or one classic from Somewhere in time, one deep cut from fear of the dark and maybe a live debut etc because fans have asked them to play these songs and some deep cuts from the albums and what the band have wanted to play for a long time like Steve wants to play Only the Good Die Young and Bruce wants to play Total Eclipse and it is a perfect opportunity to play the songs i said and deep cuts and songs what the band wants and i think we are going to be surprised and be wrong on many things for this tour i hope. Here is a stretch but when i read the Powerslave 40 notes from Steve he said that people really like a deep cut like The Dueller and he wrote it and now he know it has recognition from the band from the fans again and maybe now they play it as a live debut with Rime Of The Mariner but that is a stretch but i think the setlists was good ideas for what they are going to be playing
You guys are really cool, been following you a while now. Hope you go to Europe next year, and maybe I'll see you! Weekend Warrior would be great to hear live. I saw their Fear on the road tour in 92 and they didn't play that then. ❤
I'd take James setlist, but open with Steph's Moonchild and drop Ace's High. Also, add Logan's Murders in the Rue Morgue in the encore between Hallowed and Run. Great video, as always! Loved the cameo from your cat!
I feel like them mentioning “Iron Maiden-Fear of the Dark” is somewhat a hint that they’re gonna play more songs from that album so here’s my setlist
-Prowler
-Wratchild
-Killers
-Tailgunner
-Trooper
-Phantom
-Wasting Love
-The Evil That Men Do
-Rime of the Ancient Mariner
-TNOTB
-Iron Maiden
-Remember Tomorrow
-Fear of the Dark
-Run to the Hills
-Sanctuary
I wish they would play "The Prophecy" From Seventh son. Such an underrated song. Very complicated to play.
By the way, They're going to play "Where Eagles Dare" as their opener. Either that or "Invaders".
As much as I want them to play Invaders, that is never going to happen.
Where Eagles Dare is a good pick, but I don’t think they will bring it back again, considering they played on Legacy. Of course it is possible, but I just don’t see it.
@@Rock-n-Metal-Realm Why won't they play Invaders? It's such a great song. They should play that followed by Gangland!
@@CBT5777 Because Steve doesn’t like it or Gangland. Plus they’ve never played either song live and they are *generally* considered the weakest songs on the album, which is definitely the case for Gangland, but I think Invaders is one of their most under appreciated songs.
I mean they did play Alexander, but that was after years of the fans begging for it. I could be wrong, but I am not getting my hopes up.
@@Rock-n-Metal-Realm You're right. I've been listening to Maiden for 30+ years and I love Gangland.
@@CBT5777 It’s a pretty solid song. Have you seen that video of Adrian playing the song in his studio?
Here's my prediction (so far):.
- Ides of march (1:48) (TAPE)
- Murders in the rue Morgue (4:14)
- Prowler (3:56)
- Wrathchild (2:54)
- Killers (4:58)
- The Evil That Men Do (4:33)
- Trooper (4:10)
- Bring Your Daughter... (4:42)
- Phantom of the Opera (7:02)
- Rime Of The Ancient Mariner (13:45)
- Fear Of The Dark (7:16)
- Iron Maiden (3:43)
- Number of the Beast (4:25)
- Hallowed Be Thy Name (7:08)
- Running Free (3:22)
I might be too dreamy, but there are singles that have to be "must do's" for this tour, so there's no running from, "trooper", "fear" (gosh I'm so tired of that song)...
Any of you think I'm being a bit too hopeful?

Here is my shot on the dark regarding how the set list might work (considering this is basically another History tour).
1.Sanctuary/Be Quick or Be Dead (would love for them to start the same way the Fear of the Dark Tour openened but very unlikely, so the other and more likely choice could be Sanctuary)
2. Wratchchild
3. The Trooper
4. Infinite Dreams/Children of the Damned/Wasting Love
5. Phantom of the Opera
6. The Number of the Beast
7. 2 Minutes to Midnight
8. The Evil that Men Do
9. Rime of the Ancient Mariner
10. Wasted Years (yes, they played it on Future Past, I just can't think they will leave Somewhere in Time off)
11. Bring your Daughter to the Slaughter
12. Fear of the Dark
13. Iron Maiden
14. Run to the Hills
15. Hallowed Be Thy Name
16. Running Free
I saw them during the "Somewhere Back in Time" Tour, the "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" Tour, and then the "No Prayer for the Dying" Tour. They started to lose their popularity in the 1990s, at least in the United States, during that tour, which I watched them play in a college gymnasium and not a big Sports Arena. However, they regained their popularity over the years.
Then I saw them again in the 2008 Somewhere Back in Time ( or whatever it was called) tour, and then in 2018/19, I need to remember what that Tour was called.
I'm was looking forward to seeing them on this New tour.
In my opinion, they could skip any songs from *Fear of the Dark* and *No Prayer for the Dying*, but they'll probably still play "Fear of the Dark" since it's the best song on that album.
"Die with Your Boots On" would be awesome to hear live again. I would assume they will play "Run to the Hills" because they seem to have skipped it numerous times, and the tour is called *Run for Your Lives*.
We’ll likely hear less from *Stranger in a Strange Land* since they performed five songs from that album this time, but who knows? Anything is possible!
I vote for Logan’s setlist 🤘 more of a eye opener 🤘
Infinite Dreams, Wasting Love and Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter will be on the setlist. Tailgunner will open the show with its opening line of Bruce whipping us up to “trace your way back 50 years”
My unlikely but maybe would be "Prodigal Son". Not likely. It would be a real treat and tip to the hat for Paul.
My setlist is
1. Be quick or be dead
2. Holy smoke
3. 22. Acacia Avenue
4.Killers
5. The Trooper
6. To tame a Land ( Dream) Seventh son or mariner
7. Infinite Dreams
8. Run to the hills
9. Die with your Boots on or Still Life
10. Wasting Love
11. Assasin or no prayer for the dying
12. Number of the beast
13. Iron Maiden
Encores
1. Tailgunner
2. From here to eternity
3. Sanctuary
Why not Moonchild as a opener?
My prediction
1. Murders in the rue morgue (Bruce mentioned he wants that song back and this is also a classic opener)
2. The troooper
3. Die with your Boots On (a 2nd piece of mind song that was not played on legacy of the beast tour, and it is a bands favorite)
4. Afraid to shoot strangers
5. Killers (also mentioned by Bruce, and the promo shows Eddie with an axe)
6. Rime of the ancient mariner (also mentioned by Bruce, and since it takes more then 13 minutes no other powerslave song will be played to leave room for other albums)
7. Number of the beast
8. Phantom of the opera
9. Wasted years (1 song from SiT since they play more of that album on the current future past tour, and the lyrics fit a 50th anniversity well)
10. Infinite dreams (a fans request)
11. Fear of the Dark
12. Bring your daughter to the slaughter (there will be one song from NOftD and this one is most likely)
13. Iron Maiden
----------------------------
14. Hallowed be thy name
15. Only the good die young (Steve Harris said he wants to play this song live)
16. Run to the hills ( the last words are, run for your lives...)
They should hire you to make the set list. This picks are absolutely perfect.
Here’s what I think…
1. Be Quick or Be Dead (I think Nikki will surprise people)
2. Number of the Beast
3. Wrathchild
4. 2 Minutes to Midnight
5. The Clairvoyant or The Evil That Men Do
6. Phantom of the Opera
7. Wasted Years of Heaven Can Wait
8. Hallowed Be Thy Name
9. Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter (it’s their only no 1 UK single!!!!)
10. 22 Acacia Avenue or Prowler
11. Killers
12. Run to the Hills
13. Fear of the Dark
14. Iron Maiden
15. Running Free
I can’t see Mariner being played full stop.
I think there will be a lot of similarities to the A Real Live Tour which is a varied set of your look at it.
0. Ides of March
1. Wrathchild (or God please Murders in Rue)
2. Prowler
3. Remember Tomorrow
4. Trooper
5. 2 minutes to Midnight
6. Phantom of the Opera

11. The evil that man do (or IDreams)
12. Fear of the Dark
13. Iron Maiden
14. Bring you Daughter
15. Wasted Years
16. Run to the Hills
More focus on Di’Anno era plus Mariner plus just one track from PoM (was on Legacy) and SiT (was recently).
As songs are shorter I expect 16 songs.
Low chances for Aces High, Murders (drum intro too difficult), epics other than Mariner and Phantom
The Prophecy would never be playing this but I would loovee
Intro - Transylvania
1 - Prowler
2 - 2 Minutes to Midnight
3 - The Evil That Men Do

13 - Iron Maiden
14 - Hallowed Be Thy Name
15 - Wrathchild
16 - Run to the Hills
"I have come to the conclusion that it is.....still subpar". Funny and true. The fun thing about No Prayer is that a lot of the soiund is very close to Seventh but it just does not compare, which would have been a miracle.

2. Tailgunner
3. Infinite Dreams
4. Heaven Can Wait or Alexander The Great
5. Rime Of The Ancient Mariner

12. Fear Of The Dark
13. Iron Maiden
Encore:
14. Wrathchild
15. The Trooper
16. Run To The Hills
(17. Sanctuary only at London Stadium)
this is so fun, speculating and speculating...
my "semi-realistic" picks - I think there will be something from Somewhere in Time though... I'm taking my kids and I'm kinda hoping they'd do Stranger again, but probably not 🙂
Be Quick or Be Dead
Wrathchild
The Evil That Men Do
2Minutes to Midnight
The Trooper
Infinite Dreams
Killers
Phantom of the Opera
Bring Your Daughter... to the Slaughter
The Number of the Beast
Fear of the Dark
Iron Maiden
-
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Run to the Hills
Aces High
I wish I could have found a way to get Mariner in there, and maybe they will skip No Prayer album all together after all... who knows, but hey, this is fun speculating!
a good question though - if they play 2 nights, will they do something different on night 2? or is Maiden now so perfectly synched up they would just play the same show twice... ?
My realistic setlist for RFYL:
0 - Ides of March
1 - Murders in the Rue Morgue
2 - Wrathchild
3 - Remember Tomorrow
4 - 2 Minutes
5 - Phantom
6 - Trooper
7 - Afraid to Shoot Strangers
8 - Clairvoyant
9 - Rime
10 - NOTB
11 - FOTD
12 - Iron Maiden
13 - Hallowed
14 - Run to the Hills
15 - Sanctuary
I’d love to include songs like Infinite Dreams, Prowler, and 22 Acacia Avenue, but there’s just so many bangers from the “golden era” that it’s hard to pick 😭
It's a good prevision. But I think they will play at least one song from No Prayer for the Dying. Probably Bring your daughter to the Slaughter. My bet:
01.Be quick
02.Killers
03.Trooper
04.2 Minutes
05.To tame a Land
06.Remember Tomorrow
07.Phantom of the Opera
08.Infinite Dreams
09.The Clairvoyant
10.Rime of the Ancient Mariner
11.Bring your daughter to the Slaughter
12.Number
13.Fear
14.Iron Maiden
Bis
15.Tailgunner
16.Run to the hills
17.Halloweed be thy name
To Tame a Land or Bust!
Up the Irons!
1. Where Eagles Dare
2. Wrathchild
3. 2 Minutes To Midnight
4. Remember Tomorrow
5. Phantom of the Opera
6. The Trooper
7. Rime of the Ancient Mariner
8. Infinite Dreams
9. Alexander the Great
10. Fear of the Dark
11. The Number of the Beast
12. Iron Maiden
ENCORE:
13. Hallowed Be Thy Name
14. Run to the Hills
15. Running Free
I'm leaning towards Ides of March/Murders as the opener BUT I do like The Number of the Beast in there now that it was mentioned. And you may not agree but a wildcard for me, with the right intro, a great opener would be Prowler.
I am surprised we didn't hear anything about To Tame a Land or Still Life!
Would love those but in my heart of hearts don't believe it will happen haha
I love those songs dude. They rock !!!
"Back in the Village" Favorite song and they have never played it live.
I think each your setlists had great options (specifically Killers, Children of the Damned, The Evil That Men Do and Die With Your Boots On) but overall I'll lean slightly towards Steph's setlist. With not really much thought due to how difficult this is here's my unlikely, oddball take:
1. Run to the Hills
2. Wrathchild
3. Die With Your Boots On
4. Phantom of the Opera
5. Killers
6. Remember Tomorrow
7. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner
8. The Trooper
9. The Evil That Men Do
10. The Number of the Beast
11. Fear of the Dark
12. Iron Maiden
ENCORE:
13. Bring Your Daughter...To the Slaughter
14. Sanctuary
15. Hallowed Be Thy Name
What about opening with 'be quick or be dead'?
That would be a really unexpected but really good opener (assuming Nicko can still play it given the very fast pace). Cheers from Princeton, NJ 🤘
Eddie has a hatchet so that indicates focus on Killers. That would have me guessing they open up with Ides into Murders in the Rue Morgue.
I don't have a list, but the songs I would really like to hear would be Phantom of the Opera, The Duelist, Charlotte the Harlott, Deja Vu and Hallowed Be Thy Name.
I do think that there will be 1 song from each album and max of 2 songs from some of the albums (probably 6 albums)
As for opening track how about tailgunner they could have the back end of a Lancaster bomber with the machine guns firing with Eddie behind them with lights going crazy
i hope they will play MSG in NYC on that tour, i will fly in from germany for a show in NYC
I like seeing these setlist speculations. I think on this tour, we'll be getting at least one song from each of those first nine albums and it'll be a mixture of hits and deep cuts. Here's my prediction / wish list:
Prowler
Wrathchild
Phantom of the Opera
Sea of Madness
Infinite Dreams
The Trooper
Killers
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Bring Your Daughter To the Slaughter
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Deja-Vu
The Number of the Beast
To Tame A Land
Fear of the Dark
Iron Maiden
Encore:
Only the Good Die Young
Run To the Hills
Running Free
Be Quick. Opener.
To tame a land. Nicko played that song with TT.
Murders in the Rue Morgue would be an awesome opener that we haven't seen in a long time.
1- Be Quick or Be Dead 2- Infinite Dreams 3- Killers 4- No Prayer for the Dying... that's all. others can be anything they want :)
Two minutes to midnight, Running Free, Wrathchild, The evil that men do, Phantom of the opera, Number of the beast, Bring your daughter to the slaughter, wasted years, aces high, killers, Fear of the dark, sanctuary/ run to the hills / iron maiden

That’s what would love to see
My first impression was this is Early Days Part 4. I think this will have at least decent representation from No Prayer and FOTD. For Janick as well. Just yesterday I was listening to Fates Warning singing along, it is good. I'd like to hear No Prayer, love that song. I think they'll bring something new back from FOTD. From Here to Eternity? Love to hear Judas Be My Guide debut though. But if there is a debut, I think it will be Only the Good Die Young. Then should be quite a few songs from the first two albums for Paul.
Running Free will be the closer. It will go over really well especially after Paul died. Hasn’t been played since 2011, I think. It rocks as a closer on En Vivo.
2013! Maiden England Tour, and yes running free will be the closer imo
Logan's list is close to perfect. Put # of the Beast at the 6th spot ( replacing Clairvoyant ) and open up with Prowler and Bingo !
1. Be Quick or be Dead
2. Wrathchild
3. Two Minutes to Midnight
4. Phantom of the Opera
5. Remember Tomorrow
6. The Trooper
7. Killers
8. Rime of the Ancient Mariner
9. The Number of the Beast
10. Bring Your Daughter
11. Fear of the Dark
12. Iron Maiden
13. Hallowed be Thy Name
14. Run to the Hills
15. Sanctuary
Dudes I think we need to see sun and steel
They all going to be songs that haven't been played hellowbe the name is Nico favorite song to play probably they do for him
I think opening might be prowler. That might be someting special.❤
My Setlist prediction
1- be quick or be dead
2- wrathchild
3- 2 minutes for the midnight
4-infinite dreams
5-killers
6-wasted years
7-number of the beast
9-rime of the ancient mariner
10-phantom of the opera
11- bring your daughter to the slaughter
12- fear of the dark
13- iron maiden
Encore
14- Seventh son of a Seventh son
15- the troopers
16- run to the Hills
Sanctuary beats from here to eternity hands down
honestly I am hoping the band will avoid playing the songs people are expecting to hear. I would love to hear them play Purgatory, Prodigal Son, Prowler, Only the Good Die Young, Back in the Village, Flash of the Blade, To Tame a Land, Sun and Steel, The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, Fates Warning, The Assassin just to name a few.
I'd love for that to be the case but with them selling stadiums I think there is a good handful of songs people are going to expect to hear, and the band will play. I do think they will deliver some good surprises, I just don't think it will be many due to the setlist length
Iron Maiden is my fav band . They’ve made my fav metal album in somewhere in time. With that said I don’t want no more new albums. The older I get the more I just want old maiden and not new maiden material .
Be Quick or Be Dead
Flash of the Blade
Children of the Damned
Infinite Dreams
Phantom of the Opera
Number of the Beast
Remember Tomorrow
Flight of Icarus
To Tame A Land
Powerslave
Killers
Fear of the Dark**
Iron Maiden**
Wasted Years
Hallowed be Thy Name
Run to the Hills**
No Rime (I think it will come back for an actual farewell tour) and this tour will make room for a couple extra lesser played songs **These are the three guranteed songs
This is not my dream set, just a feeling what they will go for. I'd like Revelations in the set but don't see it unfortunately
Surprised no one thinks be quick or be dead could be an opener. Nice, short, sharp 4 minutes, can still be played by Nicko similar to how he played caught somewhere in time a touch differently. Agree mainly about the staples, but there has to be at least one or two surprises like remember tomorrow or infinite dreams. Id love strange world, to tame a land and only the good die young, but I know I'm dreaming there...
i feel like they would opt for Prowler over it
@tjgamer9713 seems like now all options are open again
Here is my set list:
Deja vu
The fugative
Prowler
Still life
Bring me your daughter
Killers
No prayer for the dying
The number of the beast
Iron maiden
2 minutes 2 midnight/ the evil that men do
Phantom of the opera
Hallowed be thy name
Encore :
Afraid to shoot strangers
Charlotte the harlot
Only the good die young
I have a real problem with From Here To Eternity, its a skipped track every time when listening to that album.
A bit left field but would they play Be Quick Or Be Dead again ! It kind of fits the tour vibe that they are promoting. It works as an opener as well.
I'd love to hear Back In The Village. What a track!
I can see them also doing Charlotte the Harlot. Yes, I actually think they'll play it.
1 Prowler
2Number of the Beast
3 Sea of Madness
4 Wrathchild
5 To Tame a land
6 Be Quick or be Dead
7 No Prayer for the Dying
8 Rime of the Ancient Mariner
9 Evil that Men Do
10 Phantom of The Opera 11 Trooper
12 Hallowed be Thy Name 13 Iron Maiden.
Encore
14 2 Minutes to Midnight 15 Run to The Hills
16 Fear of the Dark. Start with song 1 album 1, end last song of Album 9
They have to play To Tame A Land, Lonliness, Deja Vu, Sea Of Madness, Flash Of The Blade, Duelist, Infinite Dreams, Quest For Fire lol :) Mother Russia, Tailgunner.
Unfortunately if they didn’t do Sea of madness on this tour there’s no chance they’ll do it on the next. Ride pattern is too fast for Nicko now
In 2005 they played their best setlist imo. The first 4 albums. Except they forgot innocent excile and to tame a land. Skip run to the hills, Fear of the dark , Trooper and Sanctuary please
My prediction is this, with the “surprise” song being 22 Acacia Avenue … enough new/different with heavy focus on the first 3 albums … plus all the classics they always add in (like Iron Maiden - Eddie Comes out):
The ides of March/Wrathchild
Tailgunner
2 Minutes to Midnight
The Trooper
Phantom of the Opera
22 Acacia Avenue
Killers
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Hallowed by they Name
Fear of the Dark
Iron Maiden
Aces High
Number of the Beast
Run to the Hills
Running Free
🤓
I like the final setlist best.
I'd love to see them do Afraid to Shoot Strangers
I think its possible to open with the 1st single they ever released.
PROWLER
I always thought running free was the first single ever released. Prowler is obviously the first song on the debut but in terms of songs released I always thought running free was the first
PROWLER was on the Soundhouse Tapes. Which is their 1st recording @viking_2112
I'd love to see the Charlotte the Harlot trilogy played back to back. Phantom of the Opera, Killers, Purgatory. Invaders or Gangland. To Tame a Land. Back in the Village. The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner. The Clairvoyant. The Mercenary or Nomad.
