[QUOTE=ashman]Learn Revelations, my favourite song for the Bass. I love the verse bit, it's a good stretch. :thumb:

I personally like Blaze, each time I listen to one of his songs, I like some more.

Dickinson > Blaze > Dianno.

Nickos really name is Michael Henry McBrain, Bruce Dickinsons real name is Paul Bruce Dickinson and has his own Record Company called Air Raid Recods.

Just found this cool site, it's got loads of facts on it. [URL=http://www.songfacts.com/artistfacts/getArtistfacts.lasso?combinedartists=Iron%20Maiden]Clicky[/URL][/QUOTE]


I was just reading those facts. Whats the deal with the feud between Bruce and Metallica?

I never knew there was one...

what about flight of icarus, number of the beast and brave new world? maybe go so far as to say run to the hills but thats really pushing it as its overrated

Iron Maiden is the best metal band ever imo. Bruce vocals are insane , dave murray just striaght up TEARS IT UP , and nicko is the best drummer on earth.

My take on Maiden =)

[QUOTE=thelittledrummerboy]I was just reading those facts. Whats the deal with the feud between Bruce and Metallica?[/QUOTE]

I don't actually know, I know Bruce or Steve keeps saying "We're not like 'kin Metallica".

This is bugging me actually, I'm might post in the nasty Mettallica Thread ask them there :naughty:


/starts flaming 'tallica :thumb:

Sorry i already voted for laiho

[QUOTE=shadow_stalker]Sorry i already voted for laiho[/QUOTE]

The Shame! The Shame! :upset:

bloody hell! your a disgrace for the Maiden army! your not a clansman anymore!" :mad:

Quickly, vote Adrian Smith in the other poll....

already did

i voted adrian and dave :thumb: how many go through from each poll?

can anyone suggest me some fairly easy song by iron maiden that song good with just one guitarist. thanks in advance for any help.

( not that any maiden songs are easy )

DiAnno > dickinson > blaze


i think di anno is the best because of the guitar work they did when he was in the band. now most of their songs are galloping power chords. like the trooper, flight of icarus, and run to the hills for example. they are great songs anyways but the guitar work is nothing compared to older songs like "phantom of the opera"


edit: sorry for the double post.

I voted for the two Maiden guitarists in the polls, even though I really like Dave Mustaine and Kim Thayil.

Also, I have to say that "Prowler" is the best opening song ever. And it's a lot of fun to play.

[QUOTE=sack-man]i voted adrian and dave :thumb: how many go through from each poll?[/QUOTE]
5

Sadly, Becker won't make it through.

[QUOTE=YDload]Also, I have to say that "Where Eagles Dare" is the best opening song ever. And it's a lot of fun to play.[/QUOTE]


Fix'd

[QUOTE=GurS]Fix'd[/QUOTE]

No way, that's probably their least impressive opening song. It's too long and plodding, but if you're a drummer I guess I could relate.

"Prowler" is a lot of fun to play on bass, and probably guitar too.

/lists all openers better than prowler:

Where Eagles Dare
Aces High
Moonchild
BQOBD
Sign Of The Cross
The Wickerman

Every Maiden opener is awesome. All of them.

Voted for Gilmour and Mustaine. Sorry guys.

I have to say, their older metal is far better than the new stuff. It's good, but you know....it is just way different. I liked the older more.

please.

Try Losfer Words (Big 'Orra), it's really easy, I learnt it in about 10 minutes.
Dream of Mirrors is fun to play, just got to be able to stretch that pinky.
Trooper is good and so is Wasting Love.

Try paschendale, i'm no guitarist and can easily play all of it (except solos).

Whickerman is not that bad for playing (i havnt tried to play the solo), also fear of the dark is very fun to play.

Wickermans Pretty easy, as is Run to the Hills.

all songs are easy if you only play air guitar :lol:

No, ollie would still have trouble playing them...

[QUOTE=shadow_stalker]No, ollie would still have trouble playing them...[/QUOTE]
lol, harsh but true...he probably couldn't even mime vocals properly :lol:

Thats a horrible thing to say...i wonder if he will be playing next rock night...

playing?!? or destroying the sound system :lol:

:lol:

F[B][U][/U][/B]ucking awesome :lol:


Woo rainmaker is on!

[QUOTE=rik]Try paschendale, i'm no guitarist and can easily play all of it (except solos).[/QUOTE]

I've had trouble with on of the Rhythm parts to that song, oddly enough, the lead is easy, it's just the bloody rhythm parts.

The Solo to the Wickerman is quite tricky, so I replace bits with a bit of Shredding :thumb:

but i need tabs too. can you people that made recomendations post a link or url to the tab for that song.

[QUOTE=sack-man]all songs are easy if you only play air guitar :lol:[/QUOTE]
i have an inflatable plastic guitar to compliment my 5 real ones. i can jam on that thing for hours! :D

What the f[COLOR=White]uc[/COLOR]k. Get them yourself. [url]www.google.com[/url]

well, mxtabs is as good as any I've found.

taborama do good tabs as well, although i got confused when i was looking for some dream theater keyboard tabs, for a song that is pretty well only keyboard, but they only had guitar tablature for it :confused:

Eddie in the freaking house!

That is quite bizarre, it does happen a lot though.
