But what was the actual reason of having a standby drummer available during those two tours? Granted, the first time I thought that Nicko was getting too old for the job was on a Maiden England trek, but his performance thankfully never got to the point of being particulary "show-stopping"...

From the first look I thought he tore a hole in his pants...

Can they realistically achieve that without anyone noticing someone somewhere and subsequently opening an open detective case here on this forum?

Who from Maiden is wearing his wife's red trousers then?

Is there a topic about that here? Would be interesting to read through, I must've missed something :)

To be fair, JP also thought they are pensioners who are winding down once. Look where Ritchie got them now, 10+ years later.

Thanks for the explanation! I guess the relationship has mended since that time? Otherwise we probably woundn't have Mandrake Project on our hands.

Sorry, I'm not on Facebook, and I haven't read anything I recall about Roy and FB here, so I'm oblivious to that reference :)

Now I guess that crosses Mr. Lazarus off from Harris' estate Christmas presents list. Also imagine the global embarassment that Joe himself just recieved from his dad. Wouldn't be too surprised if said post would disappear after a while.

Has no groove, uses too much ride, makes funny faces being in a metal band. Does that qualify as heckling?

Apparently he did, all throughout the Future Past tour, during soundchecks probably. Otherwise he wouldn't be announced just now.

Well at the very least he would look visually adequate with the rest of the boys, because he's more or less old too. When 90 percent of all legacy band lineups now feature members that could as well be not present on this earth when their first records were released, it looks kinda weird.

What do we say, what do we do? You know we are nothing without Nick Is this the end, don't say it is Can we give it one more try? It's the last chance for life Got to give it our best shot It's the last chance We can work it out, we can say goodbye I don't want to let life die I'm going to...

Wow, what a timing for me to muse about that the personal relations might be the deciding factor here :D

I would say that maybe he is confined to the style of music that BL plays, which is essentialy yes, a pub-rock variety of something remotely heavy. Maybe he's really a beast and can perform Where Eagles Dare in his sleep, but just prefers to keep it a secret between him and Arry.
