When I meant before they were famous I meant before they were signed. I know there were pretty famous before then, especially with all the coverage they got, with the 'Pre-Kerrang!' magazine.

ah ok.

Also same question to AB/DC.

although this most likely has been done before i'd like to hear every ones top 10 maiden songs..

10. Fear Of The Dark (Rock In Rio, The croud singing along is..stunning, amazing)
9. Paschendale
8. Dream Of Mirrors
7. The Trooper
6. Lightning Strikes Twice
5. Number Of The Beast (Rock In Rio)
4. Hallowed Be Thy Name
3. Blood Brothers
2. Brave New World (Rock In Rio)
1. Run To The Hills (Rock In Rio or Normal, Both Are Good)

there are also many other great songs that should be on that list but seeing as i said top 10 i'l just put those 10

1. Blood Brothers (rock in rio)
2. Dream of Mirrors (rock in rio)
3. Running free (real live dead one)
4. The Evil That Men Do (rock in rio)
5. Fear Of The Dark (rock in rio)
6. Hallowed be thy name (rock in rio)
7. Children of the d[B][U][/U][/B]amned
8. Aces High
9. Rime of the ancient mariner (sp?)
10. Man on the edge (from the whicker man single)


Anyone else think that Maiden sound way better live than studio?

for alot of songs i beleive they do..but there a few that are better studio than live..i can't think of any right now though. also all those songs on your list would be in my top 10..if i could have about 50 songs in my top 10..

eah its very hard to make a list of just 10 songs.

1) Blood Brothers (Rio)
2) Fear of the Dark (Rio)
3) Bring Your Daughter... (Donington)
4) Run to the Hills (Rio)
5) Brave New World (Rio)
6) The Trooper (Live)
7) Dance of Death (Stage theatrics are awesome live)
8) Paschendale (Live)
9) Rainmaker (Live)
10) Journeyman (Live)

Journeyman live is pawnage. That is all.

God, that was hard...so many songs that I love :amaze:

I need a complete bass tab for Blood on the World's Hands. :(

The only one I've been able to find is the same with, with the first minute or so (it goes up until the rest of the band breaks in)

It's annoying me.

ANYWAYS...Blood on the World's Hands Live (Eddie's Archives) > BotWH Studio

Aye 'tis. Try this for the bass tabs; Get the Guitar tab for it (if it exists) and use the Root notes of the chords. :thumb:

[QUOTE=ashman]NOOO, I missed afraid to shoot stranger :upset:[/QUOTE]

dude, that seriously is the funnest song to play on guitar

[QUOTE=coolidgeALL]dude, that seriously is the funnest song to play on guitar[/QUOTE]

Yeah it is, I can never get the solos though...Stupid Dave with his great skills

I can play everything I got off of Mx tabs, but I dunno. Is that more of a riff with all those full bends and stuff?

[QUOTE=coolidgeALL]I can play everything I got off of Mx tabs, but I dunno. Is that more of a riff with all those full bends and stuff?[/QUOTE]

The bendy riff between solos? That's probably the easiest bit in the song, I just have a lot of trouble with Daves solo. I don't learn Janick solos, theyre too sloppy for me.

Yea I think thats what I meant, its like 8-10b12r10-8 or something like that, they do it 4 times total, twice on the b string, then the high e string, than again on the b string. Thats probably my favorite part of the song, tho not extremely hard. Did that even make since at all?

Yeah it made sense. I love the way that Janick Harmonises as well, it makes me want to search out another heavily influenced Maiden Guitarist to Jam with...

Yea, I really like the harnonising in alot of there songs. I've only been listening to maiden for about a year, and I like judas priest and early metallica stuff, just to name a couple bands. what else should I check out?

I'd say Cradle Of Filth..although I'v only heard like 1 song..but my friend talks about them every now and then..

They're nothing like Maiden really.

[QUOTE=ashman]There is a common trend in these top tens...[/QUOTE]


could you point out that common trend? just for those who aren't smart enough to read your mind or see the trend your refering to..

[QUOTE=ashman]They're nothing like Maiden really.[/QUOTE]
oh ok..my bad. i wont refer bands that i havn't totally heard myself anymore :)

hallowed be thy name
sign of the cross(blaze)
dream of mirrors
still life
the trooper
paschendale
blood brothers
aces high
infinite dreams
the clarevoyant

very hard choice

yeah Dream Of Mirrors (RIR or normal) is deffinatly a rather good song, i find is somewhat not very well known, or at least to new comers of maiden.

Who else get's chills when the chorus of Blood Brothers comes on? i do sometimes, not when im in a rockin' mood of course..but if im sitting around at night and it comes on i just get goosebumbs..

Jannicks solo gives the Goosebumps in that song, which is wierd, because I think he's the worst guitarist in the band...
