He spat(sp?) on him or steve...

Yea, the crowd spit on them. But what some people dont understand, that video I was shot in San paulo(?) and spitting is a sign of respect. (weird eh?) But then again, they could have been spitting on steve as a sign of respect and spitting on blaze because :P


I like blaze, he didnt fit the maiden scene, great singer, horrible stage presence.

Chile

Blaze Video:

That was painful. It was the Trooper, and it still managed to be the worst Maiden song I have ever heard.

Blaze had no stage presence, his singing was mediocre, and Janick butchered Adrian's solo.

Thank goodness they are better now :D

Where do each member of Iron Maiden live at currently?

i head Nicko lives in Florida, Davey In Hawaii, and the rest are still in the UK.

I heard the Blaze version of afraid to shoot strangers and it sounded awful!!
He's not a bad vocalist, he just sounds bad compared to Dickinson ;)

Has anyone heard iron maiden's cover of thin lizzy's rosalie :thumb:

.....there really should be a thin lizzy thread

iron maiden did a cover of communication breakdown by led zep.
Its real good :D

I like the cover of "Reach out" (adrian singing) they covered it from a friend of adrian's band...

^^^

i like Adrians voice more than Blayze's lol.

check out this great Iron Maiden website i found last night

go to the FAq's and click on the "Somewhere in Time album cover" and you'll learn alot about the hidden items that are located on it!

I picked up 7th Son... recently and it's great. It's a concept album right? If so, can someone explain to me the concept. Thanks.

i have found many... like all the names on it relates to maiden somehow, the clock thats 23.58.. kinda the powerslave cover behind the whole pic :p

[QUOTE=sensitiveorgan00]I picked up 7th Son... recently and it's great. It's a concept album right? If so, can someone explain to me the concept. Thanks.[/QUOTE]

The concept is slightly woolly, but heres the vague lowdown:

Moonchild: 7th son (note: not 7th son of a 7th son.....just 7th son) is born. Good and evil will struggle over him and he will be tempted by both. The seventh son has mild occult powers, not the full power of HIS 7th son later on.

infinite dreams: The 7th son has disturbing dreams where he sees into the future. He is tempted to look further and further into the future to see what happens when he dies. He is horrified when he sees that he will spend eternity in the afterlife and never live again. (PS this is possibly my favourite lyric of all time)

can i play with madness: link to the concept is slightly tenuous in this one, i think that the 7th son is consulting a prophet over whether it is fine to concieve a 7th son and therefore release great power. He begins to become enslaved and tempted by his powers

The evil that men do: 7th son concieves his seventh son, therefore sinning as the 7th son of a 7th son leads a tortured existance.

7th son of a 7th son: this ones fairly obvious, similar to moonchild but this time its the birth of the 7th son of a 7th son rather than his father.

The prophecy: the child is now a young boy and tries to warn his fellow villagers of an impending natural disaster which he forsees. (volcano or something i think). They dont believe it and when it does eventually happen they accuse him of causing it with his powers, and he leaves the village. (think hes kicked out or something).

The clairvoyant: The 7th son leads a solitary life, harbouring his powers and seeing the future. Im not sure why but here i always imagine him gradually twisting into the disfigured eddie portrayed on the front cover as he becomes more and more powerful.

only the good die young: this isnt directly connected to the tale, but it more of a 'moral of the story' kind of song, reprising all of the themes covered so far.


Wow that took longer than i thought....theres a lot of speculation involved but many hardcore maiden fans would agree with me on this one i think. Bruce dickenson has once stated that "seventh son has no story....its about good and evil, heaven and hell, just like any other iron maiden album" but steve and the others seem to view it as a propper concept album. The band has provided very little info on it...i think its up to the fans to work out.

^ Thanks a lot. Much appreciated for that write up. :thumb:

yeah really cool story i'm not that big of a fan so this is the first time i know that

Wow I never thought of 7th son of 7th son like that, you shed a lot a light on my favourite maiden album.


Cheers

soon they will be :) haha

BY THE WAY GUYS!!!!!

I won the "somewhere on tour" dvd off e-bay last night :) i should have it next week...as some of you know that is my favourite album (somewhere in time) by Iron Maiden so this ought to be a nice addition to the collection, the setlist is wonderful...im currently bidding on a live japan show from the 03' summer dates "dance of death in japan" live cd...ill tell ya if i win :)

Frail, cancel that bid NOW. That Japan CD is just a bootleg that can be obtained for FREE through a Maiden Direct Connect hub or by trading... you're being ripped off. There's an amazingly good bootleg from Chile floating around on the net - same setlist, great performance, superb quality - that you can just download. I'll track down the link if you want.

According to MaidenFans.com, IRON MAIDEN's recently issued "No More Lies" souvenir EP has entered the singles chart in following countries:

Hungary: #1
Spain: #2
Finland: #3
Italy: #10
Ireland: #25
Canada: #34
Germany: #36
France: #70
Switzerland: #93

Due to the EP's extensive content, "No More Lies" did not qualify for the U.K. singles charts, where IRON MAIDEN have traditionally performed extremely well.

As previously reported, the "No More Lies" souvenir EP features the track "No More Lies", the seven-minute epic from the "Dance Of Death" album, plus special mixes of "Journeyman" and "Paschendale" as well a live video of the band's performance of "No More Lies" from the sold-out "Dance Of Death World Tour".

Is No More Lies actually being sold over here in the U.K? I can't find it anywhere! :upset:


I live in Bristol BTW.

yea he is right. I have those bootlegs. Even the Osaka japan 04 - DOD DVD

seeing as how im in the business of TRADING these bootlegs and I am part of the LOSSLESS DC++ maiden hub I have access to those. Why would you want to buy those bootlegs off ebay when you can get them for like 2 blank cd-r's (or 2 dvd-r's for dvd's)?


and arpanet, the Chile bootleg that you can download off those websites are in mp3 format. No one wants those ;)

alright, so the japan cd and dvd are bootlegs? im not winning them at the moment so i wont re-bid, thanks for the warning guys!!

anyone seen the Somewhere on Tour 86' dvd? i cant wait to get that.
