[QUOTE=ashman]Why don't you just a screenshot of that face, make it larger and print it out...[/QUOTE]

Because it wall be all pixellated.

We should have an M(aiden)X Reading meet up. I might try organise that closer to the time, though.

[QUOTE=ashman]The trooper is possibly one of the easiest songs I know (after the Wickerman), just learn the Adrian solo (soooooooooooo easy) and then just learn the key phrases in Daves solo and then do a bit of shredding.

For the Wickerman, I strip the tab that I got for the solo to the bare bones, learn the first two riffs in the solo and then only play the key phrases within the solo with some of my own patented fills.

Oh and you should never EVER learn someone elses solo exactly, I hate that, the Solo is the expression of the Guitarist, not the person who wrote the song and it's not what you play, it's how you play it!

/end guitar lesson :smoke:[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I can do The Wicker Man solo. I can't shred though. Your idea is a good plan for covers though.

My band do an "Iron Maiden tribute"...we do parts of each song (normally the chorus, not always though).

It goes:

Sanctuary (intro+1st verse) - The Wicker Man - Dream Of Mirrors - Paschendale (instrumental interlude, up to "Rush of blood and over we go") - Run To The Hills (bridge after solo up to the end).

We don't do any solo's because I don't trust myself to not freeze and muff it up on stage. I'm a rhythm player naturally.

Well done - maiden punnage ...

you lucky bastard maiden supported by dream theater... can you get better?

yeh...maiden supported by ORIGINAL GNR, or maiden supported by metallica (yes, maiden > metallica)

dream theater are good though.

i think d.t is gonna support maiden on more than one gig.... personally, if d.t opens for maiden. i will be sleeping when maiden goes on...

Dream Theater with Megadeth this summer!

[QUOTE=Lord Abortion]Well done - maiden punnage ...

wot dream theater are supportin maiden?


who told you this?

i thought the darkness could open for them.......

hear me out.......

by the time their cacophony of noise is done, the ppl who are there for the real concert will be so pleased to see maiden you could hear the cheering from Japan.

think about it...

Darkness opening for Maiden? No no no no no....

gotta agree.. they wouldnt survive a half song....

I think I'd prefer FFAF over Darkness, that's how much I hate them...

Dave and Adrian are both through to the next round of top 100 Guitarists :D

YEAH!! :D:D:D if any of them get in the group with alex lifeson im gonna have major problems...(not realy.. alex is my fav guitaist EVER!)

[QUOTE=Eddie-the-Trooper]YEAH!! :D:D:D if any of them get in the group with alex lifeson im gonna have major problems...(not realy.. alex is my fav guitaist EVER!)[/QUOTE]
:eek: You'll be letting the Thread down, the Authority down, and yourself down.

Sorry, but alex is the perfect guitarist..

No I'm the perfect guitarist..lol, not quite. I like Janick a fair bit as of late. He'd be my current favorite guitarist. I havn't been to this thread in age's..or so it seem's. Whats going on my fellow Maiden Fans?

[QUOTE=ashman]We all need money....[/QUOTE]
I need money for headphones :upset: I need to "borrow" it from my parents..and then just not give it back..

Janick is awsome... again i have to xpress my love for his solo in blood brothers.... ah... wonderful!

I can't tell the difference between Janicks and Adrians solos.

I'm just a loser though.

Adrian switches between different style within the same solos, Janick's are more melodic and Dave's are quite bluesy - i have trouble telling who's playing solos on the earlier albums though.

I know Dave from Adrian and Dave from Janick, but put them together and I'm confused.

lol...most of the time i just enjoy the solos without trying to work out who's playing it.

i just noticed at rir that janick was playing it...

lol...i saw it discussed in here ages ago, then when i borrowed RiR i looked at who was playing which solos

I have no problem telling who plays when...but some solos I've noticed that Dave sounds a lot like Janick....

Did anybody notice what happens when you line up the spines of the enhanced CDs?
