Era un barbaro macedone, non un greco. Era un grandissimo che ha poi ellenizzato un sacco di territori, ma, da Greci, non vantatevi come fanno gli Inglesi per Guglielmo il Conquistatore (Che i Normanni -Francesi- chiamavano invece Guglielmo il Bastardo). E non ha mai preso Sparta, perché "non ne valeva la pena" (sapeva che avrebbe preso un sacco di calci nel culo, ottenendo magari una vittoria "alla Pirro").

Finally somewhere in time gets the recognition after being left out for so many years. Caught somewhere in time , Stranger in a strange land and Alexander the Great, 3 out of 8 from the album, pretty impressive I would say.

As soon as they played it they had to think it was a huge mistake to have never played it before! What an amazing song and they absolutely nailed it. Dave Murray was on fire on his solo.

Im really impressed by Dave, the solo is really really close to the studio version, i wasnt expecting that much precision since long time has passed. his solo sounded overall better than adrian's one in this first rendition. Im sure they will get better and better during tour.

Looks to me like there are no proper amps on the stage, with everything routed via a desk (or computer) so the sound man has control of every signal. Lots of stage monitors though, so I assume they're not using in-ears.

That moment at 6:59 shows that they’re real musicians, that this is live and not running of backing tracks - and how tricky that stuff actually is. Great recovery there. I enjoy this so much more than 100% perfection.

proof that they aren't using any backing tracks or even a click track otherwise there'd be someone on their in-ears telling them when to come back in on each part....which proves that stupid argument of "every band uses tracks" is BS. Maiden have a bigger show and more stuff going on than any other band and they don't need any of that crap
