[QUOTE=enter natman]well im confused then. because there is a backing singer, and he was the one who sang it without the M. the lead singer sings it normally. unless Bruce is doing the backing(:lol:) then it [I]must[/I] have been the backing singer. :confused:[/QUOTE]
it's Bruce that sounds funny, he had a hellish cold that night.
newest Studio Report is up on the IMOC:
[quote=Kevin Shirley's Studio Diary #3, on IMOC website]Greetings again from Maiden Central.

Another week has slipped by, and the album is prrogressing at an amazing pace - we have 2 songs finished, apart from the vocals, and they are pretty mind-blowing. The "single" I guess, was the first which features a terrific solo from Adrian and is fairly compact, along the lines of recent rockers - and the second is a tour-de-force, with a quiet intro, really great chorus, some proggy staccato riffing, a sing-along guitar melody section, and again two phenomenal solos, one from Davey and one from Adrian, which almost sounds like a fusion solo - a la John McLaughlin - amazing!



Davey is winging his way to sunny Hawai'i now, and the Wing Commander will be in today to sing, after which we'll be off to the Royal Albert Hall to see Gillan and friends, Judas Priest and the Scorpions. Even Steve is coming, whatever next? Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Janick and I went out on Wednesday night, to the local pub, and I got myself thoroughly ****-faced. Not very attractive, after which I scolded the cabby for taking me the long way home and it costing me £10 instead of the normal £5. He insisted that it was the only way, and I could never do it for £5, so I bet him £20 I could. So, he turned around, went back to the pub (with a thoroughly inebriated me in the back, and having a right old giggle) turned the meter on again, and asked me the route I'd prefer. And, he took me home again. At the front door, the meter read £5.20. So, he said "see, it's impossible for £5!!" So, I laughed and coughed up the £20, and he dug around for change, but I figured it was a fun enough cameo that I insisted he keep it.



As I got out the cab, I got a text message from Janick saying "Police have found a man's body in the park. Beer belly, wrinkly arse, small **** and a face like a slapped arse. Text me back so I know your (sic) OK." All I could text back was "I am having a bet" because I couldn't read the letters on my phone with all that whisky in me, to which he replied "Thank God you're safe, I was sure it was you!" Cheeky monkey!

And that's all really - we're working away - very diligently and moving along - and as I have said before, it is going to be stunning!!! I really love the songs and sonically, I am very pleased with where it's at, so...........



that's all - there's not much to write that isn't more of the same. Janick has more of his BB nonsense in this week.......... I'd never even heard of him!

Until next week - keep your feet on the ground and reach for the stars! Up the irons![/quote]
and looking at the pics in the article, Steve is playing an acoustic bass for some parts :cool:

I like that concert they're going to: Ian Gillian and friends, Judas Priest and Scorpions. I guess the guys from Maiden can only [i]attend[/i] it because if they played it would be too much metal for one venue to handle. The club would collapse under the weight of its own \m/ -ness.

crag 04-03-2006 10:36 AM

The album seems to be coming along nicely:)

anyone else looked at the new shirt in [url=www.eddiesmegastore.com]Eddie's Megastore[/url]?

JamJar 04-04-2006 03:17 PM

Perhaps a hint at the artwork for the new album? It looks cool no matter what.

Josh 04-04-2006 03:19 PM

yeh.
so hopefully there'll be another massive Eddie onstage, with glowing eyes :cool:

JamJar 04-04-2006 03:22 PM

Yay! Glowing stuff ftw.

crag 04-04-2006 03:31 PM

Looks cool, if it is related to the new album and the new album is a concept album then that must mean that it must be a concept that involves glowing eyes.

/doesn't know where he is going with this theory

[QUOTE=JamJar]They did release the video didn't they? I've seen it on TV.[/QUOTE]

Oh i never saw it, i just assumed it was becasue it was with other visions of the beast stuff. Because on visions of the beast, you can find the unreleased video for MOTE, and it was with the other things from visions of the beast. My bad.

Lord Abortion 04-06-2006 07:24 AM

I just noticed...Janick shaves his armpits...


I'm actually quite worried I noticed that :p

JamJar 04-06-2006 09:31 AM

That's scary... Janick what's up with you?

crag 04-06-2006 09:50 AM

/scratches head

why would he shave his armpits?

Josh 04-06-2006 09:53 AM

[QUOTE=crag]/scratches head

why would he shave his armpits?[/QUOTE]
i don't rightly know.

/also scratches head.

meh, he's still a great guitarist.
personally, i've never looked at his armpits before, and i won't be looking at them next time i see them anyway.

crag 04-06-2006 10:20 AM

Speaking of great guitarists, i just found [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wItsn3r_kc&search=adrian%20smith"]this[/URL] on youtube.
