Best first Maiden single since Wasted Years, best Adrian solo since Stranger in a Strange Land. I love it.

Winnie, I just saw your reply about Whitesnake. No, it’s just been Coverdale and pals for more than 30 years now.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they cancel the whole tour and just skip to the next album and tour.

I saw Alice last Tuesday. Good stuff. Was supposed to see Whitesnake tomorrow night but it's been cancelled due to Klaus Meine's kidney stones. I had no interest in seeing Scorpions so I'm fairly annoyed that Whitesnake had to cancel too. Make it a Whitesnake show and give refunds to those...

Decided against Adelaide. It was going to cost me another $650 to do it and I can’t justify it. Might just put that money towards a trip to New Caledonia instead. I feel like going to New Caledonia.

Brisbane and Sydney. If they don’t do a second Sydney show then I’m going to do Adelaide as well.

Obviously going to Brisbane, thinking Adelaide and Sydney as well. Never been to Adelaide so this will be a good excuse. I’d love to go to Japan and do the three shows there instead. Still thinking about it. Got an eye on cheap flights and a decent-priced hotel.

I’ve been listening to a bit of country lately. It seems the style of country I grew up on (60s, 70s and some 80s) is now called Americana, because what they call country now sure isn’t country to me. Anyway, there’s a new country supergroup (but I guess you’d call them Americana now) called...

I saw Paul and Blaze together at Sweden Rock in 2014 doing Maiden songs. Great show.

I’ve listened to Wicked Sensation by Lynch Mob a few times today. I’ve never listened to them before but the title track came on in one of my daily mixes on Spotify. What an awesome album it is.

I just saw that! Is there anywhere official one might be able to hear it before then? I could order it from Japan, I guess In hindsight it really surprises me that Judas Be My Guide was never released as a single. It’s up there with Wasted Years as a perfect commercial metal song, accessible...

After seeing their latest album is charting rather well I realised that I hadn't listened to Lord in YEARS (since just after the rebrand from Dungeon, in fact) so I've been listening to them a fair bit this week. Awesome stuff, of course.

I went. Good show. He did around 90 minutes in the first part of the show and then an hour or so in the second. I had a front row ticket but to the side so I had a sore neck all evening.

Winnie, it is lots of fun. A great way to learn the guitar.

Not much to report here. I bought a bass guitar a few weeks back and I’m learning how to play it on Rocksmith 2014 on the PC. I’m OK as long as I don’t need to play more than two strings.

Sorry, I keep forgetting to check here. No real thoughts to share, just a great show. Janick would unwittingly get in the way of Bruce when he wanted to jump off the riser thing to fight Eddie and Bruce would get pretty annoyed.

Went to four shows plus Sweden Rock. As a fan club member you can enter a draw for each show that you have GA tickets for. Doesn’t cost extra. I did it for the three I was standing at and got picked for the second show.

New show is great. Won First to the Barrier for the first Helsinki show so I was up front for the first time. Took a bunch of photos. This is my favourite.

I’m in Tallinn, Estonia. First Maiden gig of the tour is on Saturday night. Still kind of surreal that I’m going to the first show of a tour. Previously I’ve always known the setlist so this is going to be crazy. Hoping they play nothing but deep cuts, 16 or so songs they’ve never played...
