post number 5203 on the Iron Maiden thread

That's a shame for Ireland. You know what the lesson is there? Don't be Irish.

:) Well it's our fault really with all of that :(.

Maiden should have realised that the Trooper would not have gone down well.

i dont see y every1 in ireland cracks up about that its never bothered me cos i respect the fact they r british and the song is about the brits in the war is it not

are maiden plannig to release anymore singles like number of the beast again

^^ Coincidently, they did just two weeks ago:

nooooo i got tht on release date i mean like it, like re releasing flight of icarus 2 minutes to midnight again etc

i doubt theyll release many more singles, but its actually up to EMI because they sold the rights for the pre-1991 songs (i think, it was something like that) to EMI, so its possible that there will be more singles.

Any word of a North American tour?

not yet. they havent even announced UK dates! there wont be many dates in the US, its only a small tour (by maidens standards) as in only huge arenas and festivals (well mostly)

It's a shame that Maiden sold out...I suppose they needed the money to keep going...

They haven't sold out in the usual way, they have literally sold out by selling all the rights. They are still good, I'm not gonna be boycotting them or anything...:thumb:

Oh man, it would be rad to own all of their singles. Too abd they didn't release a box set of all their singles like Nirvana.

Does anyone know when their next album is rumoured to be released?

maiden ???
sell out????
No 'kin way!!!

If there's anyone in the UK there, today's Daily Telegraph has an interview with Bruce Dickinson.

I don't know, I deliver papers in the morning, and I had a quick look. It was half a page, and more about how he is a pilot. I'm considering buying it....

You do know that all the money from the single is going to the asian disaster.

They arnt getting a penny. Well thats what i heard. The record producer is taking the cost's for making it and maiden are getting nothin because they are already loaded. Now metallica are sellouts. Wouldn't even let people download their music. All they care about is the money.

hmmm.. if this is about the new single, who owns the rights to the pre 98 songs? EMI(i think it was emi?its anyway an big record company..) the Band have NOTHING to do with what the record Company do now, Maiden have no rights regarding their old Music...

Hey all, for those who live in the US (and for those elsewhere who want to help us here see Maiden), go to the Ozzfest survey page: [url]http://promo.cc.com/ozzfest/survey/default.aspx?cfc=1[/url]
and under the bands you want to see at Ozzfest entry, enter Iron Maiden (I put in Maiden and Priest since I'd love to see Maiden, Priest, and Ozzy at the same show - that would be like a religious experience for me!!!) I've never seen Maiden or Priest live and they don't really play much in the states anymore. So, help a brother out :) Thanks!!!!!

I was going to see priest next month over here but the ticket was £29.50
which is extortionate pricing
(megadeth was £16 and cradle of filth is £14 just to give you some idea...)
why are they so much?
