Kind of light, no? That's only like 90 min of music tops. Kind of weak to end with Iron Maiden which no one actually wants to hear. Love the heavy lean into the first 2 albums to start the show.

i don't agree that maiden is the greatest rock band of all time, but they're definitely in the top 20 or so, maybe top 10.

i think you can make a case for this, but they aren't my #1. that would be the rolling stones, which i fully accept is a subjective ranking (although they are absolutely in any respectable top 10 list, and probably in the top 5).

Iron Maiden was a huge influence for an insane amount of metal bands. And to this day they are the GOAT at blending LOTR and historical event lyrics to great metal songs. Best artwork, best stages, Bruce Dickinson still sounds great, entire band still sounds amazing.

GNR has 2 total albums worth of decent music. I like them but they might be one of the most overrated bands and are nowhere near iron maiden IMO.

No, possibly top 3 UK metal band and top 10 all time

7th son of a 7th son is a top 25 all time album though

just absolute premier start to finish

Steve Harris of course said he views Genesis as the best, so you come from a long line of bad taste.
