Iron Maiden

[ThrashMaster27]

Janick sounds somewhat Scandinavian, but I haven't looked this up so I wouldn't know. I'm basically going on my knowledge of names.

[rik]

my favorite Maiden songs to play on Bass: Phantom and Rime.. they are purely AWSOME songs.. and great fun to play...,...(wow...dejavu...)

I don't think i'll ever get bored of playing POTO. Rime is cool too but its so long, good workout though.

[ashman]

I could never play Rime like Steve, my fingers would just die...

[Thunder Fingers]

I could never play Rime like Steve, my fingers would just die...

like steve is pretty hard, but my fingers survive the song... i wish i was better... my guitarist is nuts.. he thinks im better than geddy Lee... :amaze: :lol:

[Arucard]

Ha. Rush live = best thing ever.

[EscalatorToAlgeria]

one time i met iron maiden and we went to the democratic national convention with our lazor uzis and shot up all those pussys!! SERIOUSLY IT HAPPENED and then i banged 28 thousand girls at the same time!! IT HAPPENED SERIOUSLY and they were all hot!!!

[Thunder Fingers]

Ha. Rush live = best thing ever.

oh yeah! "Rush in Rio" is one of the best music DVD's i have ever seen... Steve and Geddy Lee are my gods...

[JACKROXYOU]

[EvErLaSt]

Serious issues! Like paranoid dilusionary schitzophrenia!

[Josh]

driving, eh? fun. i got my provisional but haven't been bothered to find a teacher yet
at my works xmas party the other night i ended up with my driving teacher-to-be sitting on my lap :confused: i wonder how long my car's stereo will stand up to maiden being played at incredibly high volumes...
(btw my driving teacher is a woman)

[Josh]

Serious issues! Like paranoid dilusionary schitzophrenia!
too right......why the hell did he waste time saying that rubbish story?

[Thunder Fingers]

Why are you wasting time wondering where he left thoose wasted years? :confused: Why dont you all realise we live in the golden years?

Janick sounds somewhat Scandinavian, but I haven't looked this up so I wouldn't know. I'm basically going on my knowledge of names.

Im Norwegian myself, and i dont know ANYONE who are called anything like Janick... it doesnt even sound swedish or Finnish... my bet is that its from poland, where janick actualy have family from :p

[btoto]

Have you heard that story when the guys were touring somewhere in Europe, they got news that Number Of The Beast reach #1 and after 10 minutes the "new rockstars" were pushing their bus which got stuck in snow. haha :thumb:

[Andy-Bandy]

Whats their best CD? I want to buy one.

I think that Dance of Death and Number of the beast is the two best cd's from maiden. Buy em'(recommended)

[btoto]

^No ! The very first album (Iron Maiden), Powerslave, Number Of The Beast are the best IMO. I like The X-Factor too.

Faaaaaaaaallin Doooooooooooown

[Andy-Bandy]

How old is Nicko McBrian?

[btoto]

^I don't know. Not older than 45 I guess

[ashman]

[ashman]

Wow! 50?! That was quite suprising, he looks younger than 50 if you ask me :p

Yeah I know, he is by far the most active (or insane) member of Maiden. He did have back problems when Playing at Sheffield last year.

[Josh]

bruce, at 46, is the youngest member of maiden isnt he?

[Thunder Fingers]

bruce, at 46, is the youngest member of maiden isnt he?

[Josh]

I'm actually kinda drunk right now, and I'm listening to Aces High, it sounds different. It's really weird :confused:

[Riva]

I did that with Be Quick Or Be Dead. I was pretty drunk, and I kept singing "You better watch out for the Fear Of The Dark!", because that was exactly what it sounded like. :confused:

Congrats on getting one of the highest R&M poster :thumb:

[Thunder Fingers]

[YDload]

I can't believe I came in 50-60ish on that R&M poll! I hardly ever post in this forum anymore, with the exception of this thread and the top 100 polls.

[Riva]

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Eddie-the-Trooper again.

Thank you! I was wondering why so many pit posters got so high on the R&M list! it's all about interaction these days, but most of it doesn't happen in the R&M forum.

[btoto]

Anyway, we were arguing with my friend about Maiden's female fans and I said that probably Bruce had most of female fans as he is a vocalist and good showman. But my friend argued with me saying that blond Murray was the guy whom girls always liked.

discuss !

[Thunder Fingers]

i have somewhat understanded that this is steve.. just go into the Picture thread in the official board.. :p

for christmas i got an iron maiden: eddie jumper. it's soo lush and cushed. :)
and i got an iron maiden bandana.

the graphics on the visions of the beast dvd are pretty rad aren't they!?

[rik]

My brother got me the biography "Run to the hills". Should be a good read.

[GurS]

Everyone better nominate all the maiden albums in the best r and m album thing. i nominated 18 maiden albums (i think)

[Lord Abortion]

apologies for not posting for a while
my grandad died last week and christmas and all you know...
a belated merry x-mas to you all!
anyhoo what's up for the past week?

[Lord Abortion]

I got an ed hunter tour shirt for x-mas
plus a backstage pass from somewhere on tour

god bless e-bay!

[YDload]

I'm getting the self-titled album for Christmas, as soon as it gets to my college address from Amazon.com. Oops, I forgot to send it to my home address instead!

[Lord Abortion]

great album simply for strange world...

[GurS]

strange world AND running free

[Thunder Fingers]

..AND phantom of the opera....

[Riva]

:lol: at GurS in the nominations thread. Nice going mate. :thumb:

Unforunately, each band can only have a maximum of four making it to the top 100. I'm guessing Maiden'll get Powerslave, Brave New World, Number Of The Beast and maybe Seventh Son.

[ForiegnPenguin]

I think Piece of Mind deserves a place more than Brave New World.

[Riva]

Well, go vote for em, mate. :)

[GurS]

:lol: at GurS in the nominations thread. Nice going mate. :thumb:


I try ;)

[GurS]

Oh, Sanctuary is amazing to. And Prowler.

[ForiegnPenguin]

And Remember Tommorow.

[Lord Abortion]

had to return my early days dvd to amazon
fuc'k!!!
no second disk supplied...
bastards!!!
i'll just go and buy it from a shop- easier and console myself that my £11.06 will be refunded...

[ashman]

I think the ol' Maiden army should attack Amazon, not given the 2nd disk of the Early Days is the most heinous crime of all...

[Thunder Fingers]

I just got a screwed up Dream Theater DVD from Amazon - it skipped like a beotch and froze up in a couple places.

I was thinking about getting the Maiden Early days DVD - I found it here for considerably cheaper than Amazon:

well a late merry christmas to everyone, and happy new year. i voted for 4 maiden albums (i think) with a load of other stuff in the best album thing. didnt get any maiden stuff for christmas :upset:
will get NOTB shirt and No more lies EP soon :)

[Lateralias]

Is Aces High Maiden's fastest song? or is there faster song that I don't know about...

[Thunder Fingers]

Parts of rime are faster i think... Phantom of the opera is faster... i think...

[Josh]

hmm theres a lot of fast maiden. hard to choose. invaders is quite fast.

[Lateralias]

Parts of rime are faster i think... Phantom of the opera is faster... i think...

Oh ok, thanks, I just tended to notice that whenever I try to play with Aces High (I'm a drummer) I am swept off my feet because I never noticed and remembered how fast it was.. hehe.

I'm gonna pick up Early Days and Visions of The Beast DVD's soon.

[Thunder Fingers]

hmm theres a lot of fast maiden. hard to choose. invaders is quite fast.

well.. Aces is faster than Invaders...

[Lateralias]

well.. Aces is faster than Invaders...

I know the parts in Hallowed Be Thy Name before, during, and after the solo are kinda fast, but I'm sure Aces is still faster...

[ashman]

My GF got me a Real Live Dead one for christmas :D , so now I only need Live at Donington and that other live one and then I shall be the master of the Maiden CDs. (I have all the Studio albums tho :P )

[ForiegnPenguin]

Parts of Somewhere in Time seem fast (drumwise)

[ashman]

Parts of Somewhere in Time seem fast (drumwise)

I think that song might be the fastest actually.

[Thunder Fingers]

some pretty fast 'kin galloping there...

[Dive_In_Me]

I went to their show last time they came to montreal for the give me ed till im dead dead and they havent lost their touch. I also bought the new dance of death album, which is still great. They can still insert those powerful melodic rifs in their songs as well as that special coordination wich makes them so good. Also, they didnt change their style of music to match the gay nu metal **** and pop-punk that really sells right now.

IRON MAIDEN IS THE BEST BAND THAT EVER EXISTED AND THAT WILL EVER EXIST!

If u want to reply to my post send me a mail at hippiemusiciscool@hotmail.com

[GurS]

i say drumwise the intro to gangland's probably the fastest.











or the triplets in out of the silent planet (who DIDN'T expect me to say that?)

[ashman]

...of the silent planet (who DIDN'T expect me to say that?)

Possibly some of the n00bites :lol:

some pretty fast 'kin galloping there...

Can you play that Galloping? I can't, I can manage about a minute, and then my fingers die...

[btoto]

Probably the fastest is Man On The Edge or Aces High............for drum parts

[btoto]

I just downloaded the Rainmaker video......IMO it's the best Maiden video I've ever seen

[GurS]

i still say gangland

[btoto]

Oh, How dare I forgot good old Transylvania ?!

[Iron Turtle]

Hey does someone have a link to an *accurate* transcription for the drum intro (or even the whole song) to "Where Eagles Dare?" All of the tabs I've seen are a very simplified (just triplets between snare and toms) version which don't show the snare flam, roll across snare/tom or simultaneous tom hits which it sounds like Nicko does. Something in standard notation would be best, but an accurate tab would also work. Thanks!

[KingOfSka]

I've heard lots about Iron Maiden, but I've only heard a few of their songs (fav. is the Trooper) can anybody recomend me some good songs?

[btoto]

^Of course, here you go:

1. Aces High
2. Sanctuary
3. Man On The Edge
4. Transylvania (instrumental)
5. Children Of The Dammned
6. Innocent Exile
7. Be Quick Or Be Dead
8. Bring Your Daughter To The Slaughter
9. Fortunes Of War
10. Phantom Of The Opera

[KingOfSka]

awesome thx

[Thunder Fingers]

Possibly some of the n00bites :lol:



Can you play that Galloping? I can't, I can manage about a minute, and then my fingers die...

yeah, i can play it.. i have never learned it completely so i usually play along out of key :p i learn more and more every time i do it though... :p

[Josh]

caught somewhere in time is IMO probably one of maidens best, and one of my favourite tracks. i love the bass line, its just amazing. also the bass in number of the beast kicks a$$, a classic bass line.

All of Steves Basslines are kick arse...except for Wasted years...not really a bass line :naughty:

[Hardest_Rocker]

I reccomend getting Iron Maiden's self-titled cd. Every song is awsome on it and I listen to that CD moreso than just about any other. I think Paul Dianno was an excellent vocalist with fantastic vocal range. All the riffs are extremely catchy such as the ones in Phantom of the Opera and the chorus of Remember Tommorow.

Some people like it and some (Steve Harris) say the Production is crap :thumb:

[GurS]

production wise it ain't to good.


IMO BNW had the best production on it.

[Thunder Fingers]

Best production? Live at Donnington... oh yeah! BASS! :D

of the studio albums... Powerslave and Somewhere in time...

[ashman]

I think the production on RiR is pretty poor, there is this horrible noise on NOTB...probably from Janick :P

I got a 14/15 on my friends Early Days Maiden quiz. What did you guys get?

On one of the Discs in Early Days it says quiz.

on the cheap unofficial dvd "legacy of the beast", there's a quiz. I got everything right first time. without even watching the documentary.

[Josh]

Some people like it and some (Steve Harris) say the Production is crap :thumb:
i like it, and still think the production is crap. great songs though.
also, wasted years may not have much of a bassline but i still love it.

[btoto]

The first CD is my favourite and like it's production. It's bloody good for 1980. Oh yes, and it's got Paul and Clive on it. :thumb:

BTW, was Dave the only soloist on that album or Denis also wrote some leads???

[Josh]

i'm not sure...he probably wrote some of the leads.

[GurS]

well, i think if my memory serves me correctly denis did the lead on charlotte, didn't he? and there's the twin lead on running free. and i think he did the lead on women in uniform aswell.

[ashman]

Dave did the lead on Women in uniform (on the video), Stratton did one solo on POTO, and all the other songs with twin solos...

[YDload]

Listening to "Hallowed Be Thy Name" on my computer now. :cool:

holy hell above, i just watched the early years and found out that
nicko doesn't use a double bass drum on where eagles dare.

well most of you probably already new that but meh.

[hypocracy hater]

have non of you heard live at donnington? heaven can wait... :p

#13

[GurS]

have non of you heard live at donnington? heaven can wait... :p


I WOULD have said that.


And Nicko's only ever used a double-kick pedal once, he didn't like it and has since vowed never to use one again.

[rik]

I WOULD have said that.

D*mn ! Does anyone know which note H picks in Aces High chorus???

[ashman]

D*mn ! Does anyone know which note H picks in Aces High chorus???

The bit with the Dive bomb? I think it could be D, (15th fret on the B string) and then he does like 20 tone dive bomb :p .

D is one of H's favourite notes... :thumb:

[btoto]

^the part where Bruce sings "ruuuun live to flyyy*the note*yyyy"

Ok. is that a pinch harmonic??? In the video he uses his tremolo too. I'll try to do that.

BTW, why don't they play it live??? When was the last time they played it live??? 15 years ago??? I heard that Bruce can't reach a note in that song, but I don't believe that.

thanks, ashman :thumb:

[ashman]

yep, that is the reason why they don't play it anymore...poor Brucie.

I think it is just a dive bomb, I can't actually use the old Tremolo bar, I've tried and failed so many times :(

[GurS]

it's just a dive. i heard 17th on B

[ashman]

That would make more sense, being since the song is in the key of E, like every other Maiden song...

[Thunder Fingers]

actually.. it was played live in 99.. i think we have been through this before...

[GurS]

probably.


guys, new trend. add (notgay) to your user titles.

[UntoldProphecy]

Yea Ed Hunter tour, I also believe they dont play it cos Steve doesent like it much, and Steve has a lot of control over Maiden

[Josh]

yeh, without steve theyd be f*cked. also songs like aces high tend to bugger up bruces voice (apparently)
hopefully more tour dates will be announced in the new year

[btoto]

Are there any other songs that Bruce can't sing anymore??? (i.e except Aces High)

BTW, Happy New Year and Up The Irons ! :thumb:

[supreme maidenite]

happy new year every1

[Jharaski]

That would make more sense, being since the song is in the key of E, like every other Maiden song...


Hmm doesn't it change key quite a bit? At least for the solo, because there's an F in there, and F isn't in E. ever. I don't have a thorough understanding of musical theory, so *shrugs*

[Josh]

well dream of mirrors is quite hard for him now, which is supposedly why they didnt do it on DoD tour.

Happy New Year everyone.

[Jharaski]

Looks like Bruce is really losing his edge now.

[Josh]

yeh i spose, but in a way thats not a bad thing because the songs are changing to keep in with what he can still sing. its just a shame that stuff like aces high doesnt get done live anymore.

soz, eddie, i can't :(


i listened to killers for the first time in ages. dammit, that's a good slice of metal

The album or the song???

Oh I can die for Innocent Exile :naughty:

[ForiegnPenguin]

My favorite song on that is probably Killers or Murders in the Rue Morgue.

[Josh]

murders in the rue morgue is awesome. i prefer rock in rio version of wrathchild. killers is definitely one of the best songs.

[Josh]

nice... five posts..:lol:

[Thunder Fingers]

thanks ydload!

[GurS]

nice one eddie.

[opeth_oasis]

have any of you seen the cartoon video clips on visions of the beast? I think if all those idiots calling Maiden satanic after hearing The Number Of the Beast, they should see this, my brother saw it and because he's never heard of Iron Maiden he thought i was listening to christian rock lol.

[Facsimile]

I've seen them, but I don't know why they would make anyone think Maiden are christian rock...

[GurS]

me neither.

and out of all the camp chaos videos, the two of the POM singles are the best.

[GurS]

Though Aces High is very good too.

[rik]

I just listened to Drifter in what must be the first time in about a year. God I forgot how good Steves bass work in that song is.

[Josh]

still no more tour dates :upset:
i think ive seen the camp chaos video for run to the hills, thats it.
also can i play with madness was #42 in kerrang tv's rock 100 videos.
*listens to drifter*
yeh the bass work is amazing, i havnt listened to killers for a while so this is making for a bit of a change

[GurS]

killers the song is amazing too.

best version is the Maiden England version.

[Josh]

[Iron Guillotine]

Hey has anyone here watched or own the Early Days? Because for some stupid reason my local music store isn't selling it for another week now. Is it worth getting?

[Iron Guillotine]

I'm kind of swaying towards getting it.

[AB/CD]

well worth getting its 2 disks 1 is an actual biography the other is 3 gigs being live at the rainbow live at dortmund and beast over hammersmith.

early days starts out by goin through every person who has ever been in maiden befor they were famous an stuff interviews them al apart from 2 original singers i think then it goes through the whole history until janick joins then thats it over so u have to buy the next part which prob wont be out for a while

[GurS]

no, miss_mcbrain wasn't me.

I got the one-disk version of Best of the Beast.

[opeth_oasis]

anyone got the new dvd early days? Just asking if it is worth buying??

[Facsimile]

I've got Early Days. It's very worth buying. It's the best music DVD set I've seen in a long time. So informative, and so rocking.
I am very curious however, to know how to get the hidden features, as I can't figure them out. I've tried track six, three times on each of the concerts on the first disc, but nothing, I haven't tried anything on the second. Does anyone know how get it?

[opeth_oasis]

k im gonna get it, completes the dvd set, now all i need is the Ed Hunter game lol, anyone know where i can buy or download it? Cheers :thumb:

[GurS]

Early Days is OK, i prefer 12 Wasted Years personally

[ashman]

The only bad thing about Early years; is that on the live at the Rainbow video, the first thing you see is a close up of Diannos spandex clad crotch...never a good thing

to find some of the extras, on the documentary disc chose one of the options and when that comes up highlight the 'main menu' button and press down.

[Thunder Fingers]

oh..there is worse..

its not an bad song... just a little to much "dont you know im a saviour" personally i dont hate or dislike any Maiden song... there are songs wich i like less than others yes... like the apparition...Album filler :p :wave:

[acefrehleyjendell]

yeah i like the song, but it is possibly the WORST video of their career lol.

does anyone know why Maiden hate Aces High so much, they don't play it
live and they don't include it on any compilations, it's my no1 Maiden song.

[Thunder Fingers]

that lovley monkey dance of Blaze! :lol:

I dunno why... Steve doesnt like it anymore... that is the only reason i have heard... :upset: for some reason it was apperently played live in 99... it have to be after thoose gig steve stoped liking it...

[acefrehleyjendell]

i really don't know why, i love that song. in '99 wasn't Blaze still the vocalist??

Maybe he dislikes it because Blaze couldn't do it or something lol.

Ya know what, i'd really love to hear Bruce Bruce (lol) sing Man on the edge,
that is a killer song, and it's a shame when ego's get in the way of the music.

[RockerGav]

What are you talking about?

Aces High is on Best of The Beast.

[Thunder Fingers]

i really don't know why, i love that song. in '99 wasn't Blaze still the vocalist??

[Dread_rocker]

does ne1 think maiden will play many shows in the UK nxt year or just 1 festival?

[ashman]

I'm reckoning 3-4 shows, they used to do about 6-7 and this is a light tour so 3-4 is about right. <== Complete guesswork

[supreme maidenite]

i hope they play in manchester

[GurS]

I hope they play... in my HOUSE







coz, you know, that would be really cool. and stuff.
