Nostradamus will not be played live Jackylone,I know your passion for the album but it simply will not be done and is not going to ever happen.The band aborted the Nostra tour right in the middle of it only to pump the British Steel tour and that shows that they feel that they went too far with the Nostradamus album,they got carried away in the studio and simply went too far down the road with it leaving "heavy metal fans" too far behind.
I really don't consider Nostradamus a "heavy metal" album. I believe it is a progressive rock opera album with a touch of heavy metal...like 2% of heavy metal with 98% of rock opera. I just couldn't file the album under "heavy metal".Like hellrider has said,its soft rock. But as I asked hellrider,will there even be another studio album from Judas Priest again? Maybe Nostradamus was the last studio album from Judas Priest?

When I saw Maiden on the AMOLAD tour, I was really into the album and I thought it was one of the best albums they had ever released. But I thought it was a HUGE HUGE mistake to play it all live and so did most of the audience. Over the last 12 months or so I have changed my mind about AMOLAD album.There are some great song on it, but there are also some that bore me rigid and if my house was on fire, it would not be an album I'd snatch up before I got out. You are quite right about Maiden milking their past with The Early Years and Somewhere Back In Time tours - both of which were brilliant. Of course Priest have done/will do the same and that is what most people want to see.

What are you disagreeing with, that they're flogging British Steel because there's nothing new to promote or a Nostradamus tour would have been a failure?
Of course AMOLAD tour was a snorefest, the albums a shocker, really bad. I never saw them on the tour but if I was in the crowd and they spent 75 minutes of two hour show playing that I'd be pretty pissed off. I cant believe with their back catalogue of good songs they would even think of playing that in it's entirety. It's delusional.
If and when Maiden do their 30th anniversary Number Of The Beast Tour I will bag that as well if they milk it for as long as Priest have milked British Steel. And I'm sure they will by the way. Especially if Final Frontier is as crap as it looks like it's going to be.

Oh, I completely disagree. Granted, Nostra would have had a limited audience and I don't think they could have pulled off a full tour but a few choice locations and I (and many) would have taken a plane to get there. What do you have to say about that snorefest that was the penultimate Maiden tour? It SUCKED!! Bruce himself even commented in many an interview how off-put he was at the poor reception of AMOLAD. What do they do? Follow up with a nostalgia tour with Somewhere in Time. Try to call back their fan-base. IMO, a way to excuse themselves from a sad album and sad tour.
Priest with BS just knocked them off the shelf even if Halford doesn't know how to fly a plane.

Oh, I completely disagree. Granted, Nostra would have had a limited audience and I don't think they could have pulled off a full tour but a few choice locations and I (and many) would have taken a plane to get there. What do you have to say about that snorefest that was the penultimate Maiden tour? It SUCKED!! Bruce himself even commented in many an interview how off-put he was at the poor reception of AMOLAD. What do they do? Follow up with a nostalgia tour with Somewhere in Time. Try to call back their fan-base. IMO, a way to excuse themselves from a sad album and sad tour.
Priest with BS just knocked them off the shelf even if Halford doesn't know how to fly a plane.

White evening gown, hair pulled back "just so" and a lovely diamond choker, with stilletos on the feet. I'd bang my head till the pins flew out of my updoo during certain songs. LMAO!!!

It would have to be a tour of all the great theathers. A one off could never pay for all the extra's the show would need to be told properly. So maybe ten venues playing it's still not enough to cover the nightly costs. Just Don't see Nostra ever coming alive. If it can't be done right, they wont do it.
But I'd be glad to dress to the nines and see it. A dream only.

Yeah that the thing about it, it would almost be like putting on an opera or something with all the theatrics and props that would go along with telling the story. Funny that they'd release an album that would be so logistically difficult to tour. Also the longer they leave it the less likely it is to happen. Wonder if they'll do a one off performance of it maybe in New York or London.

Again, I disagree. To perform Nostra properly in the manner it was presented would be a MAJOR project. Operatic complete with change of scenes, wardrobe, perhaps interludes, etc. A MAJOR expense. Were I in the band's management, I'd have put it on the shelf as well. Figure out the venues, put out the proper announcements (something they have failed to do especially with the Florida tapiing), etc.
Sure, I'd love something new but the BS tour was a KILLER! I bought three sets of tix and drove hundreds of miles to see them. I would have done the same to catch Nostra just once.

If that was the case I'm sure they would have done a few Nostra only shows. They'd talked of it but in the end scrapped the idea or at least put it on the shelf in order to tour the 29th anniversary of BS. I didn't say it wasn't a good show and I have no problems with doing a tour to celebrate the anniversary of the album, maybe two or three months, but this British Steel stuff has been going on for ages now in some form or another. Time for something new. (Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Friday, May 07, 2010 5:14:28 PM)

I do not think it was for lack of options or "flogging" as you put it. I think they just wanted to put on a good show. Nothing more, nothing less.
IMO, they achieved it. It was a killer.

What are you disagreeing with, that they're flogging British Steel because there's nothing new to promote or a Nostradamus tour would have been a failure?
Of course AMOLAD tour was a snorefest, the albums a shocker, really bad. I never saw them on the tour but if I was in the crowd and they spent 75 minutes of two hour show playing that I'd be pretty pissed off. I cant believe with their back catalogue of good songs they would even think of playing that in it's entirety. It's delusional.
If and when Maiden do their 30th anniversary Number Of The Beast Tour I will bag that as well if they milk it for as long as Priest have milked British Steel. And I'm sure they will by the way. Especially if Final Frontier is as crap as it looks like it's going to be.
