I've listened to about half of this podcast's episodes. Really enjoy the passion that these guys feel for the band. Their episode on Blaze convinced me to go back and relisten to Virtual XI. It had been at least a decade since I last span it. And I loved it! I like the long episodes too. Gives...

Hey, thanks for posting about your new podcast! I'll be checking it out for sure.

That is all interesting stuff, thanks for posting. I suspect that 2017 Axl Rose would have a different opinion than 1988 Axl Rose. I said plenty of stupid/arrogant shite when I was that age, and I didn't have half the world buying my record and telling me that I was the second-coming of Christ...

From an interview with Bruce Dickinson: BD: That record was assembled from three nights at Long Beach, with different tracks being selected from different nights. It also was messed around with a bit. Some of the backing tracks were fine, but Adrian's guitar was way out of tune on one or two...

Yep, the track Iron Maiden was cut from the original broadcast due to Eddie being murdered on stage. You can hear about that story, and see the footage, by watching 12 Wasted Years.

Hah - I love it!

Without a doubt, my favourite is side 4 from Live After Death.

Mike Bordin from Faith No More. He has stepped in for various major acts over the years, including Ozzy. And of course he cements his classic metal ability by playing a great version of War Pigs:

I remember seeing that image a few years ago - from memory it is fan art.

I'd go for Darkside of Aquarius, Book of Thel, and The Tower. Perhaps Jerusalem would be used as the emotional quieter song in place of Blood Brothers?

Different World Sun and Steel Wasted Years Reach Out Lord of Light

A giant leather-bound book of photos taken of members of the crowd, with hand-written messages from every fan that came through the turnstiles.

Thank you! I have had the other that you listed for many years, and they are all brilliant - but I had not listened to the Ipswich '83 boot until now. It is always fun listening to the band play "new" material to an audience that has never heard it before. Bruce is almost apologetic introducing...

That's a fantastic diorama, love it! Excellent weathering effects on the bottom of the cliffs. I only cut one of the closed windows. I drilled four small holes (one in each corner of the closed windows), then clipped the plastic out using a sprue cutter. I filed out the stuff that was left. I...

Almost done now - near enough that I have mounted the model on a display stand. A few small tasks still to go; paint the front landing gear, a few miscellaneous decals to be applied, fix one of the gear bay covers. But here she is: The kit does not come with a display stand. I modified a...

Managed to make some progress over the past few days. First up, I completed the rear landing gear and attached them to the bottom fuselage panel. I decided to follow the advice given above and leave this section off the main fuselage until after decals etc have been completed. Next, I...

Quick update, I have assembled and painted the rear landing gear, as well as the exhausts for the four jet engines. The wings are also assembled, and the glue of the fuselage has set nicely. I had to use a bit of putty to fill some gaps in the fuselage, nothing too serious. Next step is to...

My plan is to put a picture of Bruce in the cockpit window, with myself sitting beside him at the controls. Physical manifestation of a long - held fantasy haha.

They are decal windows i.e. a silver decal window frame for each of the window holes in the fuselage. Should be quite effective.

Okay, I have made a start on building the 1/144 scale Ed Force One kit from Revell. Two things were immediately apparent when I unboxed the kit. Number one - this bird is big :) Fuselage length is 50cm, and wingspan is 45cm. This makes it much larger than any of the die cast EF1 models that I...
