[-The Frank]

yah... im thinking about buying maiden japan off of ebay... what yall think?

[Thunder Fingers]

buy my Bass :p

[Cil]

I thought Rock in Rio sucked...there are much better concerts of Maiden.

[Thunder Fingers]

there are, bur RiR aint that crap... Live After Death Beats the cra out of RiR, But RiR is a good concert non the less.

[-The Frank]

i like rock in rio purely for the bnw songs they play on it

[crag]

I thought Rock in Rio sucked...there are much better concerts of Maiden.
no, RiR did not suck but yes there are better Maiden concerts

[ashman]

DotR isn't as good as I thought it would be...

[crag]

DotR isn't as good as I thought it would be...
you bought it?

[ashman]

you bought it?

No, I downloaded it. I'd go buy it if I liked it, but the Production is all screwy. Janick is terrible, Dave isn't that great and you can't even hear H. I hope the DVD's better.

Seconded.I don't even have the CD.

I'm currently ordering DOTR off Amazon.

[YDload]

I have Rotosound flatwound strings on my bass now :cool:

And no, I didn't play The Trooper for MXaiden. I can't keep up the two-finger galloping triplets for the whole song, unfortunately.

[andyhainey]

whats happeninh to Mxaiden anyways? who is doin drums

[JonG]

'Sup first post in the Maiden thread. In the past few days I've aquired 14 Maiden albums and liking them all. I had lots of songs before, just not albums. What's your favorite live albums?

[Jackson_Guitarist]

Hello Maiden fans, What is your favorite maiden instrumental? Mine would have to be Genghis Khan.

Probably RiR because of SOTC, BNW and Blood Brothers...beautiful songs...

Yeah, BNW is one of the most shiver inducing maiden songs there is.

[WetNoodle]

Transylvania :cool:

[classicrockman]

Transylvania would have to be my favorite Maiden instrumental as well. :)

[crag]

probs transylvania


mx is confusing now:upset:

[clairvoyant]

Hmm most likely Transylvania.

[crag]

heh, i just listened to that bit at the beginning of Still Life backwards:) i still can't work out what nicko says though, anyone know?

[GenuineImitation]

I would have to go with Transylvania.

[the_uber_penguin]

i suppose we could do that but it was Ubers idea to start Mxaiden so we should porbably consult him first.

Go for it.

If anyone sends me a guitar part or bass part I'll add my vocal to it. I'm not sure who's drumming atm, but using the HBTN drum track seems like a good idea. I just can't sing in key without an instrument for reference, if you know what I mean.

[Jackson_Guitarist]

I think Transylvania is overrated.

[the_uber_penguin]

heh, i just listened to that bit at the beginning of Still Life backwards:) i still can't work out what nicko says though, anyone know?

Apparently its

"What ho sed de t'ing wid de t'ree bonce. Don't meddle wid t'ings you don't understand."

or "Listen, said the thing with three heads. Don't mess with things you don't understand." Nicko says its his Idi Amin impresssion.

Apparently there's a backwards message on TMTM as well: "HA-HA bet none of you find this. Why on Earth are you listening to Iron Maiden? They Suck!"

[Joe]

Which songs are these again? I'll try it later.

[the_uber_penguin]

Still Life and Two Minutes To Midnight

[Poofy 666]

subliminal messges are the best :chug:

[smart blockhead]

Genghis Kahn is the best instrumental.

Ok, next "Best". What do you guys think is the best installment of the Charlotte the Harlot saga? There's Charlotte the Harlot, 22 Acacia Avenue, and uhh that other one! I say Charlotte the Harlot.

[-The Frank]

No, I downloaded it. I'd go buy it if I liked it, but the Production is all screwy. Janick is terrible, Dave isn't that great and you can't even hear H. I hope the DVD's better.

last time i said i was going to download a album in here, i got flamed as fu
:upset: :upset:

anyway

favorite instrumental:transylvania

subliminal iron maiden message: on the "Powerslave" album on the song "Back in the Village". Listen to the part when they say "sixes all the way". If you have good hearing then in the background theirs someone else saying "six six six". - taken from some dude on the eggs site

not really subliminal but still "cool"

i knew about the TMTM message but i've never been able to find it

[Lord Abortion]

I knew the Idi Amin one...not the TMTM one...

[Joe]

heh, cool

i knew about the TMTM message but i've never been able to find it

Does anyone know where it is? I'll probably just put it into my recording program and reverse. Is it really noticeable? I'll find out later.

[the_uber_penguin]

the other one is hooks in you
i like all of em

And "From Here To Eternity"

[Josh]

i was going to say From Here to Eternity was the 4th one. it's probably my favourite, but Charlotte the Harlot is just so great as well, i love the intro. not quite so fond of the others though.

[ashman]

last time i said i was going to download a album in here, i got flamed as fu
:upset: :upset:


Well I did say; if I liked it, I'd buy it, but I don't like it...

I downloaded all the Iron Maiden I've bought before I bought them. There's no point in buying something that you don't know the quality of.

i hate the filters.... but iron maiden rocks, they are *orgasmic* lol

[Thunder Fingers]

woha... that sounded Messy... Who Plays what?

[Thunder Fingers]

Wait... thats not my bass track is it?

Oh man.... if its mine, i never recorded a proper one... (it sounds like my way of playing Phantom...)

[Lord Abortion]

I will try and vocalise it tomorrow.

[smart blockhead]

but with Maiden you usually get quality:)
All the ones I've bought have been good, but I heard that Virtual XII, and the other blaze era ones are complete garbage.

[smart blockhead]

Getting past the ****ing swear filter is far from difficult.

[ashman]

woha... that sounded Messy... Who Plays what?

It's me, crag and you. The messyness is mainly due to the fact that; we didn't use some sort of drum track to keep in time, I can't mix for crap, it was the first time I've played POTO all the way through in about a month, I only made one attempt at it and a whole load of other things.

I know what's wrong with it and where I went wrong, so my next attempt at mixing/recording should be better.

At least you can tell what song it is, if you couldn't then I'd be screwed...:upset:

[Lord Abortion]

All the ones I've bought have been good, but I heard that Virtual XII, and the other blaze era ones are complete garbage.
Whoever said that is ****ing stupid

[ashman]

Yeah, XF and VXI are classics...

[Thunder Fingers]

Just...


Buy The X Factor....

Now im gonna listen to Virtual XI, cause its a feckin long time since last time i did that...

[pep]

Yeah, XF and VXI are classics...


They are cool, but I like the bruce ones better.

[-The Frank]

Whoever said that is ****ing stupid
i totally whole heartly agree with this statement.


x factor is one of my top favorites..... i still cant get passed the swear filter........

/is still n00b

edit: nevermind i ****ing figured it out

[the_uber_penguin]

I still ****ing can't :(

[Lord Abortion]

X-Factor is My second favourite maiden album, if I was to be as crass as to choose.

[-The Frank]

its probably my 4th from : killers,iron maiden, powerslave, then x factor. or something along the lines of that, but, i really cant choose, they are all so good. I couldnt put them from 1-5 because they have mroe then 5 albums which ****ing rock

[crag]

X-Factor is probably my 3rd favourite after BNW and SiT

[-The Frank]

haha i actually found out something cool today and thought i would share it to you all.
when maiden played live at rainbow
when paul was in the band paul had said in the early days dvd
just before they went on stage he was in the dressing room
and he made up some new lyrics to killers. So the lyrics he wrote in the dressing room he came up and sang the same night.anyway, the lyrics in the rainbow version suggest that IM is the killers, while the studio version is just a story, but the rainbow version is a bit more indepth, so i like it more.
here the "newish" lyrics:
You Fight In The Street And You Make All Your Claims Every Night
You Turn On The Power To Burn Out The Weak Candle Light

We Will Stay Here!
You Pull Up Yourself And You Breathe
You Won't Stop Us!
While London Is Looking To Be

I Challenge Your Kingdom Of Those Which You Want To Succeed
I Step On Their Bodies And Squeeze, The Unholy Ones Bleed

We Have Found You!
And Now There Is No Place To Run
You Won't Stop Us!
'cause We Have The Power As One, As One!

I Can See
What A Life’s Meant To Be
You’ll Never Know
How I Came To Foresee

I Take You And Suck You 'till You Won't Cry Out Anything
I Beat You ,i Whip You 'cause I Have The Power With Me

You Have Found Us!
You Pull Up Yourself And You Breathe
We Torment You, I'm Looking For Rest, Don't You See?

he sings this on the bootleg i sent out

[crag]

heh heh, i new he sang different lyrics but this is the first time i've seen them

[-The Frank]

yah, got the lyrics off a different board haha

did he origiannly write the lyrics for kilers anyway?

[crag]

me thinks it was a Harris/Di'Anno song so i guess he did have some influence on lyrics.

[Thunder Fingers]

Harrios Wrote Music, Diannio the Lyrics.

[Lord Abortion]

The bootleg there has the original lyrics I think, like the early days DVD.

[Deacy]

The bootleg there has the original lyrics I think, like the early days DVD.
It's the same gig

[crag]

:amaze: i just realized that Women In Uniform was originally sung by Skyhooks. Has anyone heard the original?

[EdwardTheGreat]

2 things. When they list who wrote the songs in the albums how do you kno who did what? eg. one song is Murray/Harris, whereas another is Harris/Murray? Why the difference? And does anyone know where you can get Maiden wallpapers for a mobile? I've found one site, but its rubbish.

[the_uber_penguin]

I think Harris/Murray would be a song written by Steve, which Dave added ideas to, and Murray/Harris a Dave song with some of Steve's ideas added.

Smith/Dickinson/Harris tend to be Adrian's music, Bruce's words and some melody lines from Steve.

[crag]

has anyone here ever signed up for the Mailing list on the Maiden site. i just remembered that i did it about a year ago and have never once got any e-mails from them

[EdwardTheGreat]

I cant rememeber getting any either. Would have thought they would have done something when Death On The Road was released but they didnt. What do you prefer Can I Play With Madness on Death On The Road, or Donington. I used to prefer Donington, but now I'm not so sure...

[the_uber_penguin]

I prefer the Donnington version I think.

Although I have to say: Journeyman on DotR is possibly a better live recording then Fear Of The Dark on RiR.

EDIT: NP - Fairytale of New York, The Pogues.

What is everyones favorite song off of Powerslave. Mine is either 2 minutes to midnight or Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

I used the latter for an english project two years ago. We needed to find a song about the short story Ryme of the Ancient Mariner. The song is pretty much a summary of the story.

It has to be between, Aces High, Losfer Words and Rime...

Lots of the Rock In Rio setlist (or RiR as we know it) is from the Brave New World (BNW) album.

Their other classic albums are Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son (SSOASS), Number of the Beast (NotB) and we never seem to be able to decide on a third one.

If you want to hear stuff NOT on RiR, get Dance Of Death (DoD) which was written after that concert. That too is also an amazing album with some of their best songs on it.

Lots of the Rock In Rio setlist (or RiR as we know it) is from the Brave New World (BNW) album.

Their other classic albums are Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son (SSOASS), Number of the Beast (NotB) and we never seem to be able to decide on a third one.

If you want to hear stuff NOT on RiR, get Dance Of Death (DoD) which was written after that concert. That too is also an amazing album with some of their best songs on it.

My favorite songs at the moment are the Clansman and Wrathchild. Don't know what era Iron Maiden that is though. The songs off of BNW are mostly on the first disc (I think) their pretty good too so I'll look around for that.

the clansman is from the Virtual XI album, Blaze era
Wrathchild is from Killers, Paul era

[Surtr]

Hmm...I'd say go for NOTB or SSOASS..but if you like some of the RiR songs such as Brave New World, The Mercenary or anything like that...buy Brave New World or Dance Of Death.

[classicrockman]

1. Iron Maiden
2. Number of the Beast
3. Powerslave
4. Killers
5. Brave New World
6. Piece of Mind
7. Live After Death
8. Fear of the Dark

I happen to a be a fan of very early Iron Maiden...nut BNW was a good album.

4) Brave New World
5) Iron Maiden
6) Piece Of Mind

Tis I and my ace Maiden posters...well one and a half...:upset:

[ashman]

9) Number Of The Beast (Hallowed is it's only real saviour)

What about Prisoner? Invaders? Total Eclipse? Run to the Hills? Number of the Beast? 22 Acacia Avenue? Ace songs...

[Deth]

I really don't like The Prisoner and Gangland, Invaders and Total Eclipse are decent, 22 Acacia Avenue and Run To The Hills are good, and NOTB and HBTN are fantastic.

There just isn't as many amazing tracks on that album if you ask me.

I love prisoner, solely just for the Arpeggio H does before the solo. Total Eclipse is just ace...and you've just made the list dammit!

[Deth]

Well, I'm right and that's all that matters :stubborn:.

You look a lot more metal than I do Ash.

NP: Remember Tomorrow

Fair enough, not gonna argue with that.

The silly thing is; I'm half A-rab, so when people see me in the streetthey think I'm some sort of hippity hopper when I'm not wearing a maden shirt :upset:

[Deth]

Solution: Buy more Maiden shirts.

I've found that solves most problems.

[ashman]

3/4 of my shirts are maden t-shirts...I seem to scare a lot of people off when I wear a maiden t-shirt :confused:

Fools! I only have two myself.

[classicrockman]

Favorite Iron Maiden Songs (this is incredibly hard to chose for me):

1. Phantom of the Opera

I love Bruce's vocals on that album, Invaders and the prisoner really stand out for me...

Ash looks cool

[the_uber_penguin]

Fools! I only have two myself.

I don't buy band T-shirts anymore. I used to be really into Blink 182, so now I have a whole load of Blink 182 T-shirts I'll never wear.

I'd go:

1) Seventh Son of a Seventh Son (Best vocal performance - ever on that album...except maybe Paverotti at the 1990 World Cup)
2) Rock In Rio
3) Brave New World
4) Number Of The Beast
5) Dance Of Death
6) Iron Maiden
7) Live At Donnington
8) I don't own any more Iron Maiden albums :upset: Darn bank account.

Thanks for the heads up, when you get some stuff finished can you upload it. I'd love to have a listen. I'll be Eddie, If you'll let me.

Also, have any of you seen Rock in Rio? Is it any good? My friend says that its poo cos the editors keep cutting scenes from it.

[andyhainey]

1: tell you friends that they're gr8, poo, is a gr8 quote even if they do miss scenes out, it wont be from any of the songs
2: RiR is AMAZING, i'd say its thee best DVD so far
3: i will definately upload it 4 you, if we actually get a drummer that is
4: you'll have to ask uber if you want to be eddie

:thumb:

[ashman]

Rock in Rio is great, great atmosphere. The only bad thing is that they have edited it a bit too much. but it's still excellent. Probably second best Live recording I've seen after Maiden England...

[ashman]

No, it's 1988 at the Birmingham NEC, it was part of the Seventh tour of a Seventh Tour. The only bad thing about it is; you see Steve in his underpants during the intro :confused:

Yeah get RiR.

Erm...I only have Maiden England on Video and there wasn't a CD of it released. If you have Visions of the Beast, Infinite Dreams on that is from the Maiden England Video.

[andyhainey]

ahh good, i hav visions. whats everybodies 5 fav song from RiR? mine has to be

Of all the songs they had on Dance Of Death, which song would you say they should 'bring forward'? eg Brave New World looks like its the only song from BNW that will be played at every concert they do from now on. I reckon Journeyman. Paschendale's a better song but as those of you who saw them play Journeyman live will agree, that song is awesome when played live.

i imagine Journeyman because its the only acoustic song they have so they'll probably always do it unless they do another acoustic song

Journeyman and Pascendale are pretty standout tracks from DOD fr me, apart from the TT of course

Hopefully you guys can help me with this: Recently I got far more Iron Maiden than I can deal with from some mp3 cds. I like them, but not to the extent that I want 17 hours of them. So, what 20 or 25 songs would you reccomend I keep in iTunes, to start me off? I'll keep the rest somewhere where every third song I listen to on random isn't Iron Maiden, until I'm ready to own every album they've ever released.
Also which of their live albums is best, I may aswell keep one of those too.

if you want us to tell you the 25 best songs your going to end up with every song they've wrote.:p

as for live albums i'd say Live After Death is their best.

Crag, we've been through all this before. Remember just after Reading I said I wanted to put Dave in my pocket and take him home with me?

Something sick and twisted to do with penguins also came up.

Come on, isn't Dave cute? Isn't he the one who's most likely to be a teddy bear in disguise?

EDIT:
/Takes over-dramatic, Monty Python-esque step to stand right next to Crag again./

Speaking of Monty Python, the most surreal thing at Reading Festival: just after Iron Maiden left the stage, "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" come on over the P.A. There's something very strange about lots of metellers singing along to that.
