Really? I mostly hear very generic rock music elements.

Do you think there might be fans who would resent Simon if he didn't stick to Nicko's “no double pedal” tradition? Personally, I don't care what technique he uses, it's the result that counts.

If you're a public figure and you know you might be recognized at an event, you usually check if there's anything you could get yourself into with that or have management check, so I'm puzzled by this whole thing.

So that's why he chose Pantera of all bands. Now I understand. :D There was even second controversy here, whether it wouldn't be an inappropriate money-making scheme to have Pantera go on tour without Vinnie Paul Abbott and Dimebag Abbott, instead with Phil Anselmo, with whom Vinnie was deeply...

The last solo efforts of Maiden members have rather made me keep my fingers crossed for further Iron Maiden albums even more.

This must be the interview we already know, right? I don't like the way Metal Pilgrim presents topics, so I didn't want to click on it to be sure. Nicko McBrain's bittersweet first interview after retirement Metal Pilgrim 14 hours ago https://www.youtube.com/

In the last Metal Hammer Germany, the preview of the next issue announced an article about the new Smith/Kotzen album, possibly also an interview. Now I'm looking through the new issue and there's - nothing! Not even the standard, a short review in the soundcheck. Nothing at all. And Metal...

An insider or the inaccurate Wikipedia nonsense? From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: “…McBrain retired from touring in 2024, although he remains a member of the band for studio projects…”

Looking at the comments under the video, the interviewer apparently talked to him about Maiden-related topics, but isn't allowed to share anything.

When a band member leaves, you obviously want someone who can handle the material effortlessly, but in practice it's rare that an exact copy is sought. The new member should not just be a cheaper copy of the original. An example of a very well-known band would be Linkin Park: they even opted...

It was already discussed here:

I will admit that I had similar thoughts. Remember that for the first time the management had a YouTube video of a concert recording removed. Metal bands make most of their money from physical products these days. That's not the problem. But let's see, maybe we're worrying for nothing and...

I don't think someone here has any more information. Something that hurt Roy's religious beliefs badly because he once posted about being saved by Jesus as reply to Leana on Facebook? Could be nonsense though, we don't know.

I could imagine that Simon would like to have a British Lion gig the day before Maiden every time to prepare in the sense of a warm-up in the broader sense.

Early 2026 would be better if Nicko is to play a role. Maintaining his skills will become increasingly difficult as time goes on.

Wow, that's almost as mean as his comment about the overweight man in the audience at the event I was at. Or is this that black British humor and I just don't get it? I also remember him mentioning the Stones' dyed hair, so clearly he's thinking about the issue and that he simply doesn't care...

One more vote for BNW from me.

Happy birthday to Janick! Somehow a strange picture. My input to the AI was just “Happy Birthday, Janick Gers!”

Of course, it's the “Run From Your Wives World Tour”, remember?
