I don't mind hearing new tunes from them, but there's too much of a catalog to satisfy everyone. But, since it's my set list I picked most of my favorite tunes.

Thats a really good setlist but here's my take on it:

(Intro Churchill's speach) / Ace's High - Heard it live 6 times already
22 Arcacia Avenue - Heard it live once already
The Prisoner - Never heard it live good choice
*something off new album besides new single*
Moonchild - Heard it twice live already
Stranger In A Strange Land - Heard it live once already
Phantom Of The Opera - Heard it 5 times live already
Hallowed Be Thy Name - Heard it at every single Maiden show
From Here To Eternity - Never heard it live, a gem
Ghost Of Navigator - Heard it live once already
Heaven Can Wait - Heard it live 5 times already
Flash Of The Blade - Never heard it, I would kill to hear it
Flight Of Icarus - Yet another I would kill to hear it played live.
Encore

The Number Of The Beast - Heard it live 10 times already
Two Minutes To Midnight - Heard it live 10 times already
Iron Maiden - Pfft.

****Keep in mind that I've only been going to Maiden shows for 10 yrs.

As you can see for me personally I would love to hear songs I've never heard live before so my list wil be heavily influenced by that.

Here my list (I'm keeping yours that I have not seen them play.
  1. Invaders
  2. Purgatory
  3. The Prisoner
  4. When Two Worlds Collide
  5. Montsegur
  6. Flash Of The Blade
  7. Still Lfe
  8. Fortunes of War
  9. From Here To Eternity
  10. The Duellists
  11. Public Enema Number One
  12. Charlotte The Harlot
  13. Flight Of Icarus
Encore
  1. Alexander The Great
  2. Sun and Steel
  3. Iron Maiden :p

I know my list sucks but you said I get to make my own so there ya go. Basically I would love to hear them play all these songs individually live at some point. It'll prolly never happen though.

Damn, if they would play all X-Factor like you would like, I'm not sure what would be the reaction of the crowd...As for me, I think I'd pass, cause I liked the album when it came out, but never plays it now. Of course, live with Bruce instead of Blaze, it could be interesting, but not the whole damn disc...
 
Question: Why is everyone posting a setlist like they are expecting an opening act? Don't you think they could do an evening with no support act?. Just asking.
