    Are you in the Maiden FC?

    Just got mine. I'm getting tired of the constant Trooper beer coverage (plugs). I'm something of a beer snob, the beer is average. After reading the magazine, they would have you believe it was ambrosia. I do think it is cool they advertise which pubs in the UK sell it, kinda making it an...

    Things about Iron Maiden that annoy you

    I agree. To me it sounds the closest to a "live" performance. I like that little "imperfections" like Steve's string noise come through on AMOLAD and the lows of the drums are incredible. I wish Martin Birch could have a stab at it with all the modern recording technology. I love the tight...

    Are you in the Maiden FC?

    I received mine around then, but I had just become a new member. I hope the next issue has some information on the next album.

    Things about Iron Maiden that annoy you

    Thank you. Not only are there much less of them, I find him buried in the mix once Shirley started mixing the material for BNW. I will say on Flight 666 and En Vivo he stands out more than the album versions of the BNW thru FF songs. Seventh Son was the last album where he really seemed to...

    Are you in the Maiden FC?

    I don't think it is worth it to use the forum. I joined for the initial goodie package, magazines, pre-sale, 10% off in the store.

    Best albums of all-time

    Holy Diver - Dio Killswitch Engage - Killswitch Engage Hymn of a Broken Man - Times of Grace All That Remains - The Fall of Ideals 80% of Maiden's material I saw British Lion on someone's list, I held off due to mediocre reviews, perhaps I'll give it a shot.

    Favorite Maiden Live Album (2010 Edition, voting closed)

    I owned LAD and Maiden England, Flight 666 ordered online, my brother just got me Rock in Rio and Death on the Road. I loved ME's set list - Heaven Can Wait, Killers, Clairvoyant, Moonchild, Die With Your Boots On.....I think the mix good also. LAD is a classic, but as far as vocal struggles...

    Fender Precision with Steve Harris Pickups?

    I'm still figuring out which ones to keep on the P Bass. I thought on my active Ibanezes, the rounds were a better match, but on the passive SD SPB1 pickup on the Fender - the rounds didn't sound as harsh. I've used heavy steel, nickel, semi flat / hybrids, and now flats. Love how they sit in...

    Fender Precision with Steve Harris Pickups?

    I was going to do the same thing, buy an older Fender PB and modify it, but it was so hard to find one in a decent color and good condition. How do you like the Fender flats? I'm a huge fan of D'Addario Chromes (medium gauge).

    Hooks In You

    I'm also surprised at the dislike of this song! Yes, the lyrics blow, it sounds "radio pop rock" (kinda like CIPWM). Despite that, it has a cool upbeat vibe, solid chorus, good solos. As for the vocals, NPFTD and FOD I feel had that same raspy style so I don't set Hooks in a different...

    Based on how this is worded, we very well could get a 90's history tour.

    And half the crowd. Would be a good time to get another $12 beer.
