New BLAZE DVD, Band to Play Unplayed Maiden Songs
During B L A Z E's concert last night, supporting Whitesnake in Wolverhampton, Blaze Bayley announced that this year's Big Bash concert will contain classic B L A Z E songs, Wolfsbane and Maiden tracks they haven't played live yet. Additionaly, the official flyer says the following: "Exclusive set, featuring some previously unheard songs, some you thought were extinct and some you may never hear again! ALL being filmed for the first B L A Z E DVD!"

Adding Maiden stuff to his DVD will bring more sales, maybe from people who haven't heard the band in the past. Spill over effect.

As long as its in moderation I dont mind and as long as he sticks to songs he co-wrote!

He has played 'Sign of the cross' before, so I don't think that not being a co-writer will stop him.

Also.. I know Bruce always used to play a lot of Maiden songs on his tours.. and I think it spoilt the effect. If you go and see a solo artist, you don't expect to hear songs from their old band.
Nothing wrong with the DVD idea obviously, and I like B L A Z E, but why not play just one song or even none?

I don't see any problem with playing a few covers from bands you've played with before. Not when it's about a band like BLAZE people WANT to hear some maidensongs. But if you look at a setlist of a Blaze-gig it containes mostly blaze's own material.

True and I wasnt over the moon about that decision but the minute he starts playign the trooper is the day he'll be considered a cash in just like DiAnno. Hope that never becomes the case!

Yeah and I was very pissed off at that too but to be fair it was the orchestra and Doro who suggested Wasted Years and it wasnt BLAZE it was Blaze Bayley. Still a bit off though I admit

Just a bit off.

I hope it's released in the US. Though, it probably wont be
