It isn't that we don't like hearing IM new songs. It is that we want you to change out the old tracks you are playing. Take ozzfest, it is the same damn songs they have played off the first 4 cds in the past. Where is Where eagles dare??
I also don't like it when bands come back in original form for years on end without putting out a new cd. They would rather put out 5 straight best of cds if you even get a best of cd.
He pissed me off too... and then I saw them live. A lot of what he is pissed off about is true. I spent a small fortune on a GOOD ticket because I'd take a bullet for Steve Harris (just kidding), but there were people in the first few rows, who probably didn't pay for their tickets, who were FUCKING SITTING. The people who are the real fans were back in the lawn. The outdoor shows they do in Europe are general admission. Bruce was very pissed off and generally left the stage during instrumental parts of songs. I don't know what the "solution" to this is, but I am just saying I see his point.
I agree for the most part about the setlist being boring, but I got a longer set in Columbus because of Ozzy cancelling. We got Murders in the Rue Morge, Another Life and Prowler. By my records, they hadn't played those ones live since 1982.
Also, Maiden has put out two new albums since the reunion in '99, which is decent for a band of their stature.
