During an interview with Music Radar, Iron Maiden’s Dave Murray discussed the possibility of retirement. According to him, the band “will all know when it would be time.”
Murray said the following:
“To me, there’s nothing worse than seeing a band you like on stage and they look like they shouldn’t really be there doing it. We’re nearly hitting the seventies mark now, but I think we will all know when it would be time. It would be a mutual decision.”
He continued:
“I think there’s a time and a place to bail out with dignity and grace — as opposed to dragging it out. If you can leave it at that high level, and then bow out gracefully, I think it would be satisfying for us. And not just flog a dead horse, when you’re doing it for the wrong reasons.”
He also added:
“We’re all set up for [the ‘Run For Your Lives’] tour, and after that we’ll see what the future holds. But at the moment the band sounds great, we still have that excitement and adrenaline when we go on stage. We’re still enjoying it, and that’s what it’s all about, really.”
