Future Maiden DVD
This was posted in our forums by TGD in regards to JohnnyB filming the gigs on the tour:<blockquote>Firstly Johnny is hoping to record every concert but because of stupid American union rules he cannot record some concerts. If he is seen using a video camera they will fine the band sometimes as much as $40,000. `he did however record every european concert. They are also recording every concert using a very expensive Pro Tools rig which records 36 tracks of audio every night. Everything is done on Apple Macs because they are so reliable.
<p>
The reason he is recording every concert is because there is only him filming. This means he cannot record every band member, every song, every concert so ..... he records different things different nights. By the time the tour is finished he should have, every band member, every song from every angle
<p>
As the band have more than one set of stage clothing and the fact their wardrobe lady Luci performs miracles every day the band are "seen" to wear the same clothes so this helps continuity.
<p>
As to what is happening with the footage .... nobody knows yet. The tour doesn't finish to summer next year so by the time Steve and Johnny get in the studio and go through the footage it will be at least 18 months - 2 years before anything is edited and released.
<p>
I hope there is nobody that disagrees with me that Rock In Rio was worth the wait. Whatever is done with the future "World Tour Video" it will be as awesome and in 5.1 surround sound like Rio. Johnny is also filming candid stuff, fan stuff and "making of's" and interviews with all the crews for PROPER behind the scenes extras.
<p>
As to guys who cannot afford it Steve and Johnny are more aware than ANYBODY that they do not want to saturate the Maiden market with releases. Why do you think you haven't seen any release of the Clive Burr footage yet ? which Johnny organised as an 6 camera shoot all three nights (under the guidance of long term video expert and Maiden icon Laz).
<p>
I would imagine the first time you see any of this footage will be video extras on CD singles and DVD singles etc.
<p>
So ends the gospel according to "TGD"
<p>
Whatever Maiden do to make the product the best they can for the fans, some bugger moans. You cannot please all the fans all the time. It is impossible and NO BAND IN HISTORY has ever done it as some buggers in this world are NEVER satisfied. We feed these people to EDDIE. Be happy the band are filming all this sh*t so you can see it in the future and trust them to release it at the right time.
<p>
If there are things you think Johnny should film or backstage items you would like to see as future extras why not let him know.</blockquote>

Wrathchild from Maiden Japan has been released on CD, on the US version of the 1995 Castle Reissues.
Songs that have not been released on CD (as far as I know), are Sanctuary and Drifter from Live!!+One, I Live My Way from some Blaze-era vinyl, and Prowler and Invasion from the Soundhouse Tapes.

For now, it's just a rumour, don't be too happy about it...

thats what i thought about wrathchild live, but someone who has the 95 reissue reassured me that its not on there. i still am not 100% sure on that one
i live my way is on the 2nd cd on the 2cd japan version of txf
prowler and invasion was made available on the 6666 limited copies of the soundhouse tapes cd rereleased by columbia on 2002. (i am a proud owner of this gem)
looks like you're right on wratchild though...

Yeah, the European version is different and carries only four extra songs. And as far as the Soundhouse Tapes songs and I Live My Way are concerned, it makes no real difference to whether they are released in such a limited way or not at all.

I have Prowler and Invasion on CD from the special mail in thing on the latest re-release of the cds (where you got the soundhouse tapes on cd). I haven't opened it though. Here is an eBay link to what I am talking about. [url=http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2562716215]http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=2562716215[/url]

Drifter (Live!! + One) is on the Sanctuary single (CD: First Ten Years), I Live My Way is on the 2CD Japanese version of X Factor, and Invasion and Prowler are on the limited Soundhouse Tapes re-issue CD (if you got one like I did:D).
Sanctuary from Live!! + One is the only officially released song NOT available on an officially released CD.
