It must be tough for a band like Iron Maiden sorting a set list.
Since Bruce and Adrian rejoined with Brave New World the albums and song structures have evolved so much that it's almost unrecognizable from the Maiden of the 80's.
Although i still like them a lot i don't love them like i did around the period of Somewhere in Time - Fear of the Dark. The songs in general don't grab me as much nor do they seem as exciting.
This might seem odd but it might also be to do with lack of singles and collectible releases. Nowadays we are left to make up our own minds about the songs produced, rather than have certain songs thrust on us via picture discs, poster packs and such like.
