I like AMOLAD
they are stale and overdone now. the final frontier sucks as you said. They released the single, I went to teh concert, bruce said that the song sounded beter on the disc than the single they released, and even better than that live. I listened live, and it sucked balls. was hoping the rest would be better since the singles of AMOLAD were the crap from that disc, sadly this time they folowed the total crap formula.

Yeah a Saxon,Motorhead then Judas Priest headlining tour would be my dream tour. You know we all were bitching about Iron maiden long before that dumb fucking troll came here. I think I am the ONLY member at this forum who actually likes the 2006 "A Matter Of Life And Death" album ..."sigh"...I hate to keep saying it but I can't give the 2 shit songs credit "Different World and Benjamin Bragg" the 2 songs they chose to have as singles,and videos.
But I like the 8 songs on it,but not nowhere near as much as I love the first 5 studio albums from the 80's. But me liking AMOLAD doesn't "save" Maiden from claming they are stale and boring,the albums before it suck dating back to Seventh Son being the last decent LP and obviously the Final Frontier sucks balls(I wish it didn't).
Its sad when I look at thier discography and from 1988 to 2011 there is only 1 album I like and its "ok". Can you imagine if they never sucked all these years? And put out an album like The Number Of The Beast in 2011? That would be killer,but its a fantasy. Steve Harris ruined his own band and has no idea whats wrong.
Not turning this into a Maiden discussion,I'm just wishing they were better. You know if Iron Maiden did what they did a few years back on the Ozzfest tour and played songs only from thier first 4 albums...Iron Maiden,Killers,The Number Of The Beast and Piece Of Mind and opened up for Motorhead and Judas Priest ( which they wouldn't as the only exception was opening up for Ozzy on Ozzfest and that even turned into a fight because they didn't headline ) it may be ok to have them on tour,but if not playing the first 4 or 5 albums only,no way.
And Budred,I "can" belive you've never seen Saxon because they don't play in the U.S.A. but only 3 shows once every 5 or so years ect...very scarce. The band "sucks" at "achieving a proper manager". But they don't think they are "that wanted" here in the U.S.,yes they are aware that there are many fans here but they are lazy at getting thier butts over here,but lets face it....
They are not "Iron maiden" and Maiden packs in sold out shows even if every body there doesn't like thier new albums,they are there to see the old albums live and rightfully so,I'm giving Maiden credit for thier old albums yes. It doesn't matter if Saxon put out an album that could beat Painkiller they will never have a huge following.
But Biff said the band doesn't really care about trying to outsell Maiden,they like being "cult" meaning "hidden" and they love the fans they have already. That being said I am not suprised you've never seen Saxon. I'll never see them live,unless I get some money and fly to England.

Nah that line up for me would kick major ass too JD! Saxon, Motorhead and Priest, wow that'd be awesome! I'd see Maiden on their own, cos to tell the truth, with their long winded songs they produce these days, I'd probably get bored with them and would just want the mighty Priest on stage ASAP! LOL!

Well first off Iron Maiden wouldn't open up for Priest or Sabbath as they think they are above opening up for somebody and with the dull material they write these days its a wonder how they can keep up that kind of attitude without backing it up musically? And Ozzy and Tony (not Tommy) do not get along these days,there is no other vocalist that could front Sabbath except maybe Rob Halford himself.
Ian Gillian I'd hate to hear in Sabbath again,but I'm the only one who hates the born Again album. I'm not saying Ozzy can't sing anymore and I'm not saying he couldn't pull it off but I just hate Ozzy these days,I'm so tired of him just like his song "so tired". But thats just an opinion,I'm sure thousands of fans would love to see it happen. The magic from the 70's they had together is obviously gone,but those albums they left behind still rule Sabbath's discography for me.
The big 3 for me would be Saxon opening up for Motorhead and then Judas Priest headlining. But I'm sure your post is accurate,the majority of fans would like a Maiden Priest and Sabbath tour,just not me.

Even though I said it would be cool you're probably right. Because of how good Ozzy sounded last year though it could work.
Love or hate it, it probably won't happen anyway. (Quoting Message by J.D. DIAMOND from Saturday, April 09, 2011 2:20:26 PM)

God I sure as hell hope not! As much as Dio was awsome in Sabbath,Ozzy's time in black Sabbath in the 70's with his 8 studio albums are the best Black Sabbath material and unbaetable in my opinion but that was in the 70's.
Even in 96' when I saw Sabbath they were ok but nowadays Ozzy is just a fucking dumb uninspireing buffoon and I would hate to see him front Black Sabbath again and now that Dio has passed there isn't anybody that would do Sabbath justice. And Iron Maiden is so "dull" with Bruce being such an arrogant dick these days I'd hate to see Maiden on a Priest tour.
Very bad idea for me so I'm hoping that it never happens. If it did happen with somebody singing for Sabbath I'd skip both Sabbath and obviously Maiden and just show up for Priest.

It's been awhile now but I heard Rob mention on "That Metal Show" that his dream tour
would be Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, and Iron Maiden. Even though I doubt it would
happen I think this would be cool. Hopefully Maiden would play first. (party time in the lot)
