Iron Maiden

I must admit, I never liked the Maiden material with Blaze (with the exception of 'Man On The Edge' which I've always loved). But I saw Blaze live in my hometown a few years ago and he was fantastic. The Maiden era stuff he played really worked well with his own set and actually encouraged me to listen to the two Blaze era albums again. Whilst I don't think I can ever forgive Virtual XI, I did find myself enjoying The X Factor more.

So I'm just finding out that Steve Harris has a house in my home town (he resides back and forth between Los Angeles, California and Nassau, Bahamas). Robbers broke into his house back in 2013 and stole $8,000 worth of things, it was in the local papers but I swear I have no memory of that news story.

But anyway, the area where his house is is roughly a 40 minute drive from where I live........Fuck that would be so awesome to meet him one day when he's in town.

Most watched TV in Czech republic - fun show, where contestants are about to imitate other singers (Your Face Sounds Familiar series)

I'm an old school metal fan who listened to Maiden in the 80s and 90s. There are a lot of bands I listened to then that I don't really like now, but Maiden I still love. Been listening to the old stuff with Paul Di'Anno lately. And as somebody who likes Viking metal, Invaders is a great song!

Invaders has nothing to do whit viking metal, only lyrics, its pure NWOBHM period HM song

I think they should stop or find maybe really simmilar vocalist Atick Demons once fooled us whit City under Golden gate hheheheh

One of my favs

UP THE IRONS is all I have to say. Maiden is a religion for me. My favorite band period and IMO the greatest band in the history of all music. Lot of folks will disagree but IDC it's my opinion. They have helped transcend so many genre's of metal. Go to a Maiden show and find more die hards life long fans then any other band I've ever seen. I've been to over 200 shows and seems many big acts as well as the grinders and the tour machines. Maiden is religion. I say again Up The Irons!!!

BTW Senjutsu is a masterpiece and these guys are getting old, but their passion and their "chops" still reign near the top of power/heavy metal today.

IRON MAIDEN drummer Nicko McBrain was diagnosed with stage 1 laryngeal cancer in 2020 and opened up about it in a single interview last year but otherwise kept it mostly under wraps.

OMG I hope he is OK.

I'm looking forward to the upcoming tour! Haven't seen Maiden since Brave New World.

Update from Iron Maiden camp,

Anyone planning on seeing the documentary? I'm excited and hope it plays in theaters near me.

Yeah I'm definitely going to watch it. I especially want to hear the story after FOTD and hear about the Blaze Bayley era and onwards.
