I saw the Powerslave tour, and I distinctly remember that at the end of Revelations, where he goes "All of youuuuuuuuuu", I remember rolling my eyes thinking what a Dio ripoff.

I don't get the reference. It's probably obvious, but not coming to my mind...

Don't worry about it PS, TAC thinks that everything that slightly rings a bell with him equals a ripoff from another artist. Take the main riff for 2 Minutes to Midnight. TAC is convinced they ripped the riff directly from Riot - Swords and Tequila...even though the riffs only have a passing resemblance to each other and it's likely that Maiden had no idea who Riot was. They're pretty obscure (awesome though).

Now he wants you to think that Bruce is ripping off Dio from the middle section of Heaven and Hell - Black Sabbath - Live Evil. It's absurd, but that's our buddy TAC.

I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but just gently pat him on the head, and hand him his warm milk. He'll wander off eventually.

Hah hah!! :lol

That's not true. Not really.

I got into Maiden with TNOTB. I got PoM (Gregg, I bought PoM and Riot's Narita at the same time), and even saw the PoM tour.

I loved Iron Maiden, but I did not care for Powerslave at all. I thought the album was so unoriginal. I might have even missed the tour, had Accept not been opening. Anyway, at the end of Revelations when Bruce sings "All of youuuuuuu" I thought it was such a Dio rip and totally unoriginal. That was my thought AT THE CONCERT.

Pretty sure he did something similar on the PoM tour, but I didn't remember it.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

IMO the Testament cover of Powerslave destroys the original. :2metal:
From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.
