Why are they fuckin around with us why don't they confirme the album as every band on earth does?Why are they putting on us this ''pressure'' to go and by something before the album is realised why are they using these methods...Why dont they just confirme everthing in deteals and give us some song titles maybe album name...something more on the album to come not on some compilations and so on...Ok the ''Visions of the beast'' i think its goin to be a great stuff and sure im goin to by it but i dont belive that the Maiden fans are really interested at right now!!!
UP THE IRON'S
I JUST DONT WANT PEOPLE TO START TALKING ABOUT MAIDEN THE SAME AS THEY DID FOR METALLICA BECOUSE AFTER B.N.W THEY RELISED .E.T.G.;BOX SET & NOW THE V.O.T.B!!!
September?!! Can't believe it 
Ahh, stop fuckin' complaining already! Maiden arent fuckin around with anyone, they are doing everything just fine! 7/30/03 at MSG....Im there, and can't wait! Up The Irons for life! 
Perhaps they arent fuckin around with you mate but there are a lot of MAIDEN mates out there that they do fuck around with 'em...!!!
Perhaps they want to make sure the finished album is worth releasing. They might want to remix it (like Steve did with RIR) and that takes time. I find that listening to something you recorded months after it was recorded, you notice the errors and problems and naff bits more. They probably want to do that.
The mixing will be finished soon. They just want to play a set of oldies before to promote the new DVD and hence they'll release the album in September. 
I know. They could release it before, but September is a good month for selling records after the weak Summer period. 
BTW, I think that it's a good idea to split the tour in 2 parts, one before the album is released and the other afterwards. That gives the fan the chance to see - hopefully - 2 different setlists: an oldies-oriented one and a new-album-oriented one. 
IMO i think they postponed the release of their new album just to avoid the rivalry between their new album and shitallica's new album!!!
so i guess they preferred to wait until the shitallica new album takes its time with the fans then they release their album!!!! <_<
UP THE IRONS!

That's nonsense!!!I do hope that's not the reason why Maiden postpone their new album.They shouldn't care about other bands future releases!By the by, who cares 'bout Metallica these days???
