Everything You Need To Know About Iron Maiden's New Tour

Iron Maiden Run For Your Lives Tour: ALL QUESTIONS ANSWERED!
Setlist, Stage & Simon Dawson!

The wait is OVER! Iron Maiden launched their "Run For Your Lives" 50th Anniversary tour in Budapest on May 27th, and Nico from Licks Of The Beast is here to break down EVERYTHING from opening night. We've seen the setlist, the new stage, heard Simon Dawson on drums – and now it's time for a proper discussion, cutting through the online noise of fair critique and nonsense.

From the "UNBELIEVABLE" sound and look of the band to a deep dive into the song choices (bangers, epics, and some controversies!), the breathtaking visuals, Adrian Smith's iconic Lado guitars, and a fair look at Simon Dawson's highly anticipated debut.
