^ my band covers that

you have to have it on sorround, and you hear him quite well if you listen after it...

so, question:

should we say to the MX mods "Look, authorities are really good ideas, it means that noobs get their questions answered without being insulted and/or patronized, and we stop people being c**ts (i.e. that dude that called YDLoad an idiot) so why not encourage other Official band threads to make authorities?"

yes or no?

or do we want to be unique in having thread fountains of knowledge/policemen/cool dudes? :cool:

[QUOTE=GurS]^ my band covers that[/QUOTE]
cool. its one hell of a song. also you can make it sound really evil if its sung deep enough / with enough of a "growl"

being unique would be cool...although it would stop poor buggers getting flamed in other threads as well...like some guy in the sabbath thread who was on about a load of crap

Yes :thumb:

I think this Authority is one of my best ideas yet :thumb:

But we better get credited for this :naughty:

could be cool, but what also would have been cool would been an kinda sub-forum for official threads, where the important ones for the big bands(like Iron Maiden, Metallica, Megadeth and Black Sabbath got stickied...)

Did anyone watch VH1's "40 Most Awesomely Bad Metal Songs?" Number 36 was "Bring Your Daughter..."

I think it was a good idea, because how often is Maiden on any of the music channels? Not very often here in the US. Also, they prefaced their choice by saying, "Iron Maiden is so metal that the world's top metal-ologists use them to calibrate their instruments. But even the best bands make mistakes..." So it was nice to see Maiden on TV.

I think the consensus was that it's far below Maiden's standards, and it verges on being a "sell-out" song because it went to number 1 in the UK despite not being as good as almost any other Maiden single.

I personally love the fact that someone tried to rhyme "daughter" with "slaughter," but you've gotta admit that it doesn't really make much sense.

:eek: A racist!! Get 'im lads!!


:lol:


My friend said that when Maiden did Bring your daughter to the Slaughter on top of the pops, they had to mime it, so they just messed about, and started swapping instruments mid-song. I really would have loved to have seen that... :thumb:

i have no doubt they did that if they had to mime :lol: when they played Running Free at the Top of the Pops, they refused to mime, so they was the first band in about... 10 years who played live there :lol:

so i bet if someone forced them to mime, they would not try to look like they played it..

let me guess the line up change they did :p

Vocals: Janick
Guitar: Bruce
Guitar: Steve
Bass: Nicko
Drumms: Dave

That's is more or less the line up I would have guessed... :p

i love janicks backin vocals, i think its him you hear the beast on "live at donnington" :D (i noticed that steve wasnt at his mic one time in the video.. :p)

:lol: Janick such a crazy fella

Dammit, how come there are still no more dates for the Early days tour?

[QUOTE=ashman]Dammit, how come there are still no more dates for the Early days tour?[/QUOTE]

even here in the UK theres not much maiden on music channels.
oh and btw, bring your daughter...got golden raspberry award over here for worst song of the year, then debuted at number one...nice

[QUOTE=Eddie-the-Trooper]i guess since its 6 months too, they dont have much hurry with getting it done..[/QUOTE]
hopefully if theyre taking a while getting it done theres going to be loads of dates :thumb:

well, im happy, i have gotten mine! :lol: *looks at Maiden tickets for both gigs in Oslo...* :D :thumb:

how far you got to travel to go see them? last time i only had to go 35 miles

[QUOTE=sack-man]how far you got to travel to go see them? last time i only had to go 35 miles[/QUOTE]

dont know... its 45 minutes with plane, its 8 hours with train, and 10 hours with bus :p

jesus! some way to go. if i travelled for that long i would have gone about 350 miles
if they play download festival next year i'll just travel up to download scotland, its only about 3 hours...hopefully theyll do newcastle though

I dunno about Newcastle, they said mostly festivals for next year.

errrh... i meant its Either 45 minutes with plane, i8 hours with train or 10 hours with bus.. :p

But still that's some distance to go...

well even if they only do festivals its still not too far to travel from where i am (northern england) to glasgow.
where you at ash?

well as so far tour dates only go up to july 2005 they possibly wont announce UK tour dates for a few more weeks...if they tour here in august that would tie in with reading / leeds but i dont see why they would play there as thats mostly new rock...when is download going to be next year?
or i spose if maiden are playing it they could call it monsters of rock again...
