    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    Realistically speaking, and paraphrasing what Bernie Tormé once said about "Bite the Bullet", "To Tame a Land" is what happens when the bass player writes the damn melody and lyrics. It's not their only hard song to sing, but it's probably the hardest from the singer's point of view.

    Steve said no.
  4. Murder of Rue Morgue

    When did The Trooper become Maiden's de facto big hit?

    The Eggfest incident had nothing to do with the Union Jack really, it was due to Bruce's jokes about reality shows (remember that The Osbournes was peaking at the time). And to his jokes on Ozzy's poor performances (but he and Ozzy are long time friends, so it was a joke between them two)...

    Heaven Can Wait

    Apple Music yesterday trolled me while I was jogging and random picked not one not two but THREE "Heaven Can Wait"s in a row: Gamma Ray's, Meat Loaf's, and this one. I always considered this song the weak link of my favorite Iron Maiden studio album; but it is mainly due to the fact that every...

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    Well he also has/had guitars he doesn't (or rarely) use with Iron Maiden. The one he used in the Hear 'n Aid video for example, or the Fernandes (was it a Fernandes?) he used in 2003. He also was coming back to Fender in 1999, after all.

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    By the way you can tell it's a Jackson by looking at the logo on the head (unless he mounted the Jackson neck on a Fender body, but we would have had Theseus's Paradox at that point).

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    Oh my God Dave still has those Iommish eyeglasses from the "The Early Days" interviews.

  13. Murder of Rue Morgue

    Guess The Iron Maiden Song!

    Sign of the Cross because it opens with Gregorian chants and mentions "Kreator"? Tho I cannot say if they ever opened for Maiden.

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    Floyd Rose bridge is also a pain in the ass when tuning and changing strings, plus Floyd D. Rose originally designed the bridge to contrast the loss of tuning when using heavy dive bombs and bar work. Janick is not a proponent of dive bombs and stuff like that, so a Floyd would be pointless on...
