Wow, they hired Cozmo as their spokesman!

I wanted to listen to Alexander The Great just now. Went into my Media Player and accidentally mis-clicked on Deja Vu, and said, "Oh, wow...yeah, that's a good song, too. Maybe I'll listen to that one and then Alexander the Great. ...but then, Stranger In a Strange Land is just before that, and that would be cool to listen to as well. ...Oh, and The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner is just before that one..." I decided to just listen to the whole album.

Awesome album, isn't it

Somewhere In Time is an incredible album. It's between that album and SSoaSS as my favorite IM album from the 80's, and both are part of my Top Four IM Albums with AMOLAD and The X Factor.

cramx3 · « **Reply #3962 on:** May 28, 2013, 03:36:25 PM »

1. AMoLaD
2. SBIT

Its close though, an unbelievable album IMO.

Well done, man, you just listed my four favorite Iron Maiden albums.

Mosh · « **Reply #3964 on:** May 28, 2013, 10:20:43 PM »

Replace X Factor with Piece of Mind and you've got mine!

Though X Factor really grew on me this year. I always liked it but it's really starting to become a favorite.

IMO the worst thing on SIT is better than anything from the Blaze era. Controversial I know for some IM fans here, but that version of the band to me always sounds like it should be entitled "Harris/Bayley Project" or something. Just can't get into it, though I appreciate some songs like SOTC an Clansman.

another great maiden concert, terrific show , fireworks, the different eddies... the setlist was perfect, although i could have lived without the trooper for lets say Infinite dreams or even hallowed be thy name.

eddie

one that walks on the set and a couple others behind the band.. not to spoil anything.

Even though it's one of my favorite songs, Moonchild isn't the best of openers.

bosk1 · « **Reply #3969 on:** June 04, 2013, 12:28:49 PM »

Just put "spoiler alert" and tell us. Most of us aren't going to see them this time around, but would still like to know.

Holy. Shit. That looks epic.

MrBoom_shack-a-lack · « **Reply #3973 on:** June 04, 2013, 03:25:39 PM »

Ah i thought you meant two walking Eddies!

The big Eddie and walking Eddie are pretty much standard.

The set looks amazing though!

EDIT: I missed the two big Eddies, that's really cool!

cramx3 · « **Reply #3974 on:** June 04, 2013, 03:39:15 PM »

Those are great pics... the stage show for this tour is great.

Mladen · « **Reply #3975 on:** June 04, 2013, 04:26:39 PM »

I can't wait to catch them in Prague in less than two months.

Dream Team · « **Reply #3976 on:** June 11, 2013, 10:34:07 AM »

So, in watching The Early Days DVD, I have found an easy way to articulate why I slightly prefer Clive to Nicko. During the Beast Over Hammersmith show, you can really hear Clive propelling the music forward with intensity. Then the next show with Nicko doesn't have that same feel - Nicko has a more lay-it-back, Bonham-esque thing going which I don't like quite as much. Nicko's still great though.

Yeah I would agree with that.

There is just something innocent about Clive's drumming.

Cyclopssss · « **Reply #3978 on:** June 12, 2013, 05:37:42 AM »

I think Nicko´s style of drumming is more ´bassdrum´ based, so to speak as Clive was more of a snare-based type drummer. He used his snare to propell the music forward, as for Nicko it´s more his footwork combined with symbal playing. More groove-based. Does that make any sense?

wolfking · « **Reply #3979 on:** June 12, 2013, 05:51:23 AM »

Shit, looks like in that first pic Dave has trimmed up a hell of a lot.

MrBoom_shack-a-lack · « **Reply #3980 on:** June 14, 2013, 11:03:08 AM »

So it has finally arrived! May you all have a great Maiden summer!

Skål DTF!

Is it good?

MrBoom_shack-a-lack · « **Reply #3982 on:** June 14, 2013, 11:10:27 AM »

Haven't tried yet but i sure will, i may wait until show time though july 10th.

And Davey has a new haircut, well it's shorter than usual anyway.

Yeah, doesn't really suit him IMO. Bruce sounds incredible though.
