Apparently I have the olds...Black Sabbath played 'After Forever' the last time I saw them at Madison Square Garden! Oh well...I had convinced myself I'd never seen them play that one.

Just had to pick myself up off the floor following Chris Alo's Iron Maiden rant. Good show, fellers.

Iron Maiden - Prowler - Twilight Zone - Prodigal Son - Gangland - Quest For Fire

I can’t imagine why you would want to see a band 4/5 times on the same tour! It’s the same show! And how on earth do you remember what songs were played in shows several years ago? And also the actual date you saw them! Alo you are an enigma!

Iron Maiden - "Still Life." They haven't played it since 1988. On their 2019 tour, they played four cuts off Piece of Mind, but not that one. Maddening!

Good show guys. My picks: - Iron Maiden - Killers - Metallica - Disposable Heroes - Motörhead - We Are The Roadcrew - Judas Priest - Tyrant - Black Sabbath- Symptom of the Universe I think you should do the opposite show….bands you’ve seen live and songs you wish they’d drop!

I know this is sacrilege to 2 of you on the panel, but I would have loved to have heard Black Sabbath perform "Johnny Blade." Such a badass song.

"Vengeance: The Pact" is my favorite song off that allbum. I've seen about 11 times, and never heard that one either. "Veins" as well!!

Great first pick Chris 👍🏾

"Love Her All I Can" great call, I love that song. I would've liked to seen Rush do "Afterimage" or "Chemistry". Motorhead is my all-time favorite band and they have a ton of songs I wish they'd played for me. A few near the top would be "Outlaw" "Crazy LIke a Fox" "We Bring the Shake" "When the Eagle Screams" "One More Fucking Time"

"Loneliness of the long distance runner" Maiden played it 3 times, as far as I can remember. In Yugoslavia, 1986

Kiss did play love her all I can during the rock'the nations tour. You can find it on KZfaq. They also played an unplugged version in the Vegas shows DVD during the meet and greet.

6:17 I had to know, so I clicked: BOC played "Vengeance (The Pact)" at the Aladdin Theater in Vegas, July, 1981

Can't beleive that I saw something that Pete never saw. Deep Purple played a concert in the city I live (Florianópolis, Brazil) in 2014. Into the Fire was the second song on the set. When the song started my mouth fell open. Sure, Gillan didn't sing it like he was on his twenties, but it was great nevertheless. About Ryan's picks, I saw Megadeth doing The Skull Beneath the Skin on Rock in Rio in 1991.

Clutch-A Shogun Named Marcus. I've seen them four times (in four different states), love this song so much and they've never played it when I've seen them.

Dio - Caught in the Middle. Saw them in 1983 when they only had one album out and they didn't play this absolute gem. I still think it's the best Dio track ever.

Pete, I saw Sabbath play After Forever in Sydney on their last tour.Ozzy couldn’t cut it!

Deep Purple - Blind - Listen, Learn, Read On - Living Wreck - Fools - Pictures of Home - Mary Long

So many songs to list, but these are my top three songs I've never seen live: Opeth - Moonlapse Vertigo Rush - Countdown Dream Theater - To Live Forever

Saw Rush on the Down the Tubes Tour in 1975. But they were openers so they had to cut their set list short so I never got to hear them play "The Necromancer" live.

Yeah, I saw Sabbath play After Forever in Pittsburgh at an Ozzfest, but I can't remember what year. I was surprised because for years me and my buddy would joke about how we'd never hear that one. It may be my favorite song off MOR. Chris is right it was the 2005 Ozzfest

This is a great theme for the show! Great job, guys!

Total Eclipse! Yes!

Chris, I agree about Judas Priest; I wish more bands were like them in terms of digging deep into their catalogue. I know it's not metal, but I wish the likes of Genesis would have done that. They are horribly predictable and safe live. Also, dude, the amount of shows you have been to in your life is absolutely insane! I'm 38 and have been to like 14 in total, though I was a late bloomer admittedly. Here's some picks for me: Genesis - Supper's Ready Yes - Endless Dream Black Sabbath - Symptom Of the Universe Rush - Xanadu

Topic suggestion: Favorite songs our favorite bands played live but we can‘t remember

Love Senjutzu, love A Matter of Life and Death but would love to hear Caught Somewhere in Time!

Led Zeppelin (However they did play these songs live as Page/Plant): 1. When the Levee Breaks 2. Four Sticks U2: 1. The Unforgettable Fire 2. Sort of Homecoming 3. I Will Follow INXS (Played first three on their Kick Tour only. The last three I've never heard, and I've seen them multiple times): 1. The One Thing 2. Don't Change 3. Burn for You 4. This Time 5. Kiss the Dirt (Falling Down the Mountain) 6. Just Keep Walking

I guess the reason Maiden doesn't change their setlist during a tour is because of their huge stage setup. I saw the Legacy of the beast in 2019 and I'm going to see them again in July. The only difference will be the songs from Senjutsu, which I'm really looking forward to.

As a Hardcore Maiden Fan,i have to agree that they are really lazy with their setlist (what is such a shame!),but Senjutsu is a great Album and the three songs on the current tour are killing it!!!!

Testament have some tracks for sure. Day of Reckoning , One man`s fate and Falling Fast

Kiss - Not For The Innocent Rush - Afterimage Opeth - Benighted The Tea Party - Angels Big Wreck - All By Design Black Sabbath - Megalomania Judas Priest - The Sentinel Iron Maiden - Stranger In A Strange Land Ghost - He Is Pat Benatar - The Victim Porcupine Tree - Collapse The Light Into Earth Heart - A Lighter Touch

Great topic! Prong is one of my favorite bands and I've seen them several times. Two of my favorite songs from them are "No Justice" and "The Banishment". Never heard them live.

Great subject for a show. I'm sure everyone can identify with this. All of us who are or have been 'concert regulars' have bands or artists we've seen regularly where we're frustrated that we have a favourite song, that the band doesn't play live. Great first choice from Mr Alo and Pete (Genocide). A band I've seen a few times over here in the UK who will actually play some requests for deeper cuts during the gig is Y&T. Meniketti is great for that. Thanks for 45 minutes of great entertainment guys and for giving us viewers your time.

I love this channel! Easily my favorite music discussion channel on YT. Here’s an idea for another HVS video, disappointing final albums. Some examples for me would be: You’re All Living In Cuckooland-Budgie Who-The Who Calling All Stations-Genesis The Endless River-Pink Floyd Play It To Death-Witchfynde And others as well.

Chris you are right Sabbath did After Forever at Meadowlands on the reunion tour. I was at the show.

Sabbath played "After Forever" on the Ozzfest/Reunion show that I saw, I remember being so thrilled they played it.

hi friends and enemies. looking forward to this!

Easy - Infinite Dreams by Maiden is a killer song only ever played on the 7th Son tour!

Iron Maiden - Saw 'em five times, they never played "Gangland" (one of my favourites off TNOTB). KISS - Saw 'em six times, and of course (due to the fact that they NEVER put deep tracks on the setlist), they never played "Not For The Innocent" (which could easily replace "God Of Thunder" as the "Gene In The Spotlight" song), or my beloved Ace sizzler "Save Your Love". Slayer - saw 'em seven times, and they never played "Crionics". Their best attempt on "Slayer Maiden", killer guitars, a true highlight on "Show No Mercy".

Pete, Sabbath definitely played After Forever on the “The End” tour. I saw it with mine own eyes.

Great topic. I’d like to see Maiden pull out To Tame A Land and Infinite Dreams for old times sake. Both not played since the 80’s. Also Alexander The Great for the first time would be nice.

Metallica Orlando Arena 1992. Almost 3 hours of complete chaos....mayhem...seats ripped off...police came...insane.

Honestly. I love this channel. I love it more when the group is like 4 or 5. I love monsters den the most. I'm homeless. But I'm gonna make it. when I do I'm gonna support this. You don't know how a lot of this gets me thru. Plus comic book geezers

Well Man of Miracles will be 50 in 2024 maybe we can get it then? For me last time was on their Man Of Miracles Tour in 75. Love that song as well Pete.

Fun show. Lots of great obscure music. Being from Detroit, I have seen Ted Nugent more than a few times in High School and College in the 80/90s. But I never saw him perform Journey to the Center of the Mind. Until..the late 90s when he surprised everyone bring Derek St Holmes on stage and pulled out Journey. Not just the riff. But the full song. Very cool 😎

I've seen Blue Oyster Cult a couple dozen times since 1978 but still haven't seen them do I Love The Night. it's one of my favorites that they pull out occasionally. Cheers Guys!

Hi Pete, I have seen Deep Purple play Into The Fire here in Australia, however of the 8 or 10 times I have seen them both here and over in the US, I have never seen them play Child in Time. I know Maiden play Wrathchild everywhere in the world but for some reason they don't play it here and that's one of my favorite Maiden songs and my 3rd as I only got to see Black Sabbath in recent years I never got to see them play anything off Sabbath Bloody Sabbath Live except for the opening riff that Tony Iommi plays before Paranoid.

Right On Ryan - Modello Cans !!! Cold Snacks - My Hudson Valley Night Treat !!!!

Senjutsu is a great album

Rainbow, especially during the Dio era have very limited setlists for their 2 albums they were touring. They never play Tarot Woman or Run with the Wolf live. And on their Long Live Rock and Roll tour also they did not play much from that album as well. Guess it was the time when Ritchie was into extended solos and each song last abt 8 mins so, the setlist was limited.

Interesting topic gents.

Was there ever a great band you guys discovered as the opening act for another band?

Great picks guys, we don't get nearly the shows here in eastern Canada that you guys do BUT we've had some good ones. 1. Metallica - Trapped Under Ice ( apparently it's only been played 21 times, since '84 ) 2. AC/DC - Soul Stripper ( I know it was played live in the 70's but I was too young ) 3. KISS - A Million to One or Exciter ( both from Lick It Up, underated tunes! )

BOC played Astronomy in May of this year.

Ryan Skow-I hadn't heard BOC play Astronomy in 20 years until they played it last November as part of a 5 song encore at the 2nd of 2 shows I saw them play at The Bellyup Tavern in Solana Beach(San Diego county). I am going to see BOC in New York City in September for 3 shows where they are going to play the debut, Tyranny & Mutation & Secret Treaties in their entirety(1 album each night plus extra set of songs). I did hear that Secret Treaties night has sold out but, I'm sure you could get a ticket if you wanted to go. The BOC song I want to hear is Nosferatu. Not sure if they ever played it live.

Speaking of Maiden and laziness, I just wish they would stop playing the song "Iron Maiden" to finish the set before the obligatory encores for at least one tour. Great topic and show!

You wanna know a band that's lazy with their setlist? It's Def Leppard! I love them, but I've done research on them for a couple of years now, and their setlist has stayed mostly the same since 1993. With the exception of a few songs from 'Diamond Star Halos,' their setlist always contains "Bringin' on the Heartbreak," "Switch 625," "Foolin," "Pour Some Sugar On Me," "Hysteria," and "Animal," etc., and I'm sick of it! I'd love to see them play "High 'n' Dry (Saturday Night)" and "You Got Me Runnin'" live. The former they played at their Vegas residency in 2013, which was before I got into the band.

Great show guys as always. However would like to make a small correction, the song entroper by enslaved is on the ruun album and for some reason they don't play that album too much. It's a bit buried in their catalogue which I don't understand because it's an absolutely fantastic record and one of the darkest records they did

Hi Pete - Deep Purple did Into the Fire on their Rapture of the Deep tour 2006/ 2007, saw them at Manchester Arena UK, and I have to say they absolutely killed it and Gillan almost got into a growl when belting out 'Into the Fieeeeeeerrrrrr' I also saw Priest do Genocide a number of times in the late 70's early 80's when they nearly always did the same Unleashed in the East set list songs for a couple of tours. Judas Priest - Let us prey - though they did it a couple of times on the Sin after SIn tour Saxon - Militia Guard Blue Oyster Cult - Nosferatu Rainbow - Gates of Babylon MSG - Samurai - Graham Bonnet did it but I'd love to hear it properly with Schenker Deep Purple - Flight of the Rat and Living Wreck (although they did do that at least once in 2006)

Iron Maiden - Infinite Dreams or Sea of Madness Grateful Dead - Dark Star Overkill - Who Tends the Fire Megadeth - The Conjuring & Tornado of Souls (Dave cut both either two shows before I saw him last year, or in retribution for someone cheering him for having cancer 😑. I’m still not sure). Judas Priest - Night Comes Down or Cathedral Spires

I once made a list of songs Rush never played live that I wish they had. The top six: 1. Cut to the Chase 2. Face Up 3. Before and After 4. Different Strings 5. Alien Shore 6. Chain Lightning

As for Iron Maiden, I'd like to see them to Be Quick or Be Dead. In general they could do more short songs to even out the longer ones. I'd love if they dropped Sign of the Cross, Blood Brothers, and the Clansmen.

Really good episode tonight! I will disagree with Chris about Senjutsu, I think it's a very good album. I do agree with him about Genocide, I wish Priest will put it back in the playlist. Good call Ryan on Praise Of Death, great song.

1. Destruction - Of the six times I have seen them they have never played 'Satan's Vengeance' off their Sentence of Death ep. They would play Total Desaster, Black Mass, and Mad Butcher off it but never seen them perform the latter. 2. Swallow the Sun - Another band I have seen six times and the sixth time is when they finally played something off Hope but it was the title track. I would love to see them perform 'These Hours of Despair' off it instead. 3. Alice in Chains - I have only seen them three times (once with Layne) and have yet to see them perform 'Grind' off their S/T album from '95.

The songs I've never heard played live are 1. Aerosmith-Nobody's Fault 2. Black Sabbath w/Ozzy-Megalomania 3. Black Sabbath (DIO) - Over& Over 4. Blue Oyster Cult-Nosferatu 5. Iron Maiden-Sea Of Madness, Deja Vu, Only The Good Die Young 6. Judas Priest-Dreamer Deceiver/Deceiver, Island Of Domination 7. Motorhead-Love Me Forever 8. Ozzy Osbourne-Diary Of A Madman 9. Rainbow-Tarot Woman 10. Robin Trower - Only Time 11. Van Halen-House Of Pain

Hi guys. Great show. I saw After Forever on "The End" tour. HVS suggestion, Ranking the songs from best to least between Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules 1-17. I believe a diverse panel would have diverse picks for best and least. Thank You. I will have to think about songs I have not seen that I would like to have the band play.

Dimmu Borgir - Broderskapets Ring - original version Enslaved - 793 (Slaget om Lindisfarne) Metallica - Motorbreath Vreid - Hengebjørki Blind Guardian - The Curse of Feanor Motörhead - I Got Mine (honestly there's TONS of songs I'd love to see that they never played, but I've got a soft spot for Another Perfect Day) Thorns - Home Immortal - A Perfect Vision of a Rising Northland Deep Purple - Knocking At Your Back Door

Sabbath were playing After Forever on their final tour in 2017.

Deep Purple played Into the fire in Wacken 2013 if I remember correctly... At least I still remember that was when I first heard it and loved it, but it truly is a deep cut.

2016 Sabbath's setlist included After Forever for most venues.

I’ve seen B.Ö.C about 8 times and they’ve never played R.U. Ready 2 Rock. One of my all time favorites for sure.

1. Iron Maiden: Sea of Madness and/or Stranger in a Strange Land. Somewhere in Time does not get the love it deserves by the band! 2. Judas Priest: Hero's End 3. Slayer: Crypts of Eternity 4. Metallica: Trapped Under Ice 5. Megadeth: Five Magics

I’m with you ryan for slayer praise of death it is also my favourite slayer song.

Would love if there was a recording of Sabbath playing Trashed live. Unfortunately I don't think it ever made it on the set list for that tour.

Deep Purple: with Gillan on vocals, they never play the Mk3 and Mk4 songs

Kiss played Love Her All I Can in the club days before the debut, and then not again until the Rock the Nation tour in 2004 (when they also played All the Way for the first time). That was my first thought having seen Kiss 30 times.

Two of my concert disappointments were Eric Clapton in 2011 not playing Crossroads; and the Rolling Stones in 2003 not playing Angie. PETE.....for Deep Purple's "Into the Fire" - they have played it in concert - at Tokyo Budokan in 2014....it's available on DVD and CD entitled "......To the Rising Sun (in Tokyo)".

Pete you would love Kings's X even more with their creativity of set lists wow

Though BOC's Heaven Forbid isn't their best, the song Harvest Moon rips. When I saw them in 2019, just before the pandemic, Buck Dharma says to the audience mid-set "would you rather hear Harvest Moon or [can't remember the other competitor]." We got Harvest Moon. I insist that I played a role in that decision.

ROCK HARD, RIDE FREE from Priest one song which I'd love to see them perform live!! Love that song from DOTF album.

Total Eclipse has always been on the japanese version of The Number of the Beast. Its on the b-side between Run to the Hills and Gangland.

the best HVS panel ....just these 4

Iron Maiden- To Tame A Land Judas Priest- Heroe's End Accept- Aiming High Def Leppard- Billy's Got A Gun Iced Earth- Gettysburg Trilogy

The one time I got to see Rush was on their R40 tour and they didn't play my favorite Rush song...Limelight..I was kind of surprised

My top 3: Deep Purple: Flight of the Rat Roy Buchanan (RIP): You're Not Alone Rush: Hemispheres

Never heard King's X play "Charlie Sheen" live. Love that song!

KISS DID play LOVE HER ALL I CAN… Rock The Nation Tour 2004. It’s on the live DVD… they killed it! Great song!!!

5 of my favourite bands and songs that they never played live (as far as I am aware). If I am wrong, please put me right someone, especially if there is a live version available on KZfaq. Thanks 1/FREE - SOON I WILL BE GONE 2/LYNYRD SKYNYRD - ROLL GYPSY ROLL 3/BAD COMPANY - CALL ON ME. I've see Paul Rodgers and Bad Co, quite a few times but have NEVER seem them do Rodgers best post FREE track 'Silver, Blue & Gold. Yes, they/he have done it a few times live, but very rarely! It should be a staple of EVERY live gig they/he does 4.THIN LIZZY - RUNNING BACK The only track from Jailbreak that the band have never done live. I asked Scott about this ten years back, and he replied there was never any general reason, it just wasn't one of Philo's favourite tracks. 5.JEFFERSON AIRPLANE - COMIN' BACK TO ME

AC/DC - Rock N Roll Damnation Pink Floyd/Roger Waters - Sheep Iron Maiden - 22 Acacia Avenue

I saw Opeth three times between 2008-2012 and they never played a pre-Still Life track, which I found disappointing - I’ll never hear In Mist She Was Standing, but they ought to play that every show! I did see that almost entirely acoustic headline show in 2011, however, which I didn't appreciate at the time haha! I’ve seen Moonsorrow five times from 2008-2020 and seen every track from Voimasta ja Kunniasta except for “Hiidenpelto including Häpeän hiljaiset vedet”, which they’ve never played anywhere! I'm fortunate enough to have seen all of Verisakeet though and that was a true pleasure! I’ve seen Winterfylleth 5/6 times since 2013 and would love if they played Brithnoth: The Battle of Maldon (991 A.D.), which is a great longer and more epic track. These guys are pretty good at covering the majority of their albums, so I don't have many complaints. I have never seen Maiden, only saw Priest once in 09 (good set though including Between the Hammer and the Anvil), and only saw Heaven and Hell once in 07 so I’m more in the Ryan sphere of smaller shows!

KISS - Magic Touch (Dynasty 1979), Naked City (Unmasked 1980) & A Million To One (Lick It Up 1983)

Total Eclipse one the best Maiden B Sides. Cross Eyed Mary also awesome. Massacre another cover also awesome. I wish they would dump Iron Maiden as the closer and do something else. Enough with closing with Iron Maiden. There is a show for you. Songs I never need to hear again live from bands I love.

Apparently, pointing this out gets a comment deleted….let’s try again. That set list site is not a definitive source of song data as it’s loaded with gaps. One can certainly find info on most tours, but its stats are only for setlists contributed to the site. So if a band played 100 shows in 1976, the site may only have setlists for only 20 dates. So to say “x band has only played this song x times,” is not necessarily accurate. They may have played a given song on an an entire tour, but the site only has info on a couple of shows from it, which skews the data. There are blank sets on there from shows I was at in 80s from big name bands. It’s usually not hard to find a representative set from any given tour as most bands stick to the same sets, so you can often piece together what a band likely played.

Infinite Dreams- Iron Maiden A Farewell to Kings - Rush Last Rites/Love you to Death - Megadeth Orion - Metallica Tool - Lateralus Those are five off the top of my head. Probably already more.

I’ve never seen Metallica do “The Outlaw Torn”, my favorite song ever made. On a slightly unrelated note, how the fuck has Maiden NEVER played “Flash of the Blade”?!

According to setlist fm, Ozzy has played "Diary of a Madman live 11 times. Over the course of attendance at several solo shows, it is no surprise that I never heard it, although interestingly, I did hear the studio track as an introduction to a June 1992 Oakland Coliseum show. It came across as a tribute to Randy. The site lists 45 times "Perry Mason" was played live, I never heard it, and remember being disappointed because I caught the Ozzmosis tour at Portland Memorial Coliseum. If Iron Maiden really wants to blow people's minds, they will open shows on the next tour with a punishing version of "Quest for Fire." Come on, guys, WTFN? I notice from fan vids that the Rolling Stones have reprised "Out of Time" on the latest tour. The song figures prominently in the Voight/Fonda film Coming Home, and it sounds really sweet on the tour.

Ozzy played sabbath bloody sabbath at Donington MOR in 1996. I saw that show and was great - check out the set list one of his best; and his set list has more or less been the same for the last 35 years!

Iron Maiden-Phantom of the Opera Motörhead-Limb from limb Megadeth- Rust in Peace /Polaris

I saw Kansas at least once every year from their 1st gig in 1974 to 1982, after which Kerry Livgren left the band. And they never performed Curtain of Iron, which was released on the 1980 album AudioVisions. Pete, you've seen them since 1982 - did they ever play it during any of those years?

Songs list to see live: Iron Maiden: still life Slayer: crooked cross Ghosts of war
