I am sorry if I come as arrogant as I can assure you that it is not my intention. However, I must also say that I have been researching Iron Maiden for more than 30 years, have spoken with loads of people related to the band and I know a whole lot more than a lot of fans, simply because I have...

No, it was dropped Samantha. This was confirmed by Harris himself on Kerrang! magazine No. 130, issued on October 2, 1986 and I quote: "We already dropped one that we didn't feel all that good playing, 'The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner', which is my song but it was me who actually...

Well, I have basically told everything I know for now. The song was reheased literally a couple of times during the production rehearsals that took place in Hannover in August 1984 but ended up being drop because, once again, the band didn't like how it turned out. This had been confirmed not...

It wasn't played live... December 21, 1988... Sorry, you´ll have to wait for my book to come out to learn more about the gig The Holy Smokers of course! September 19, 1990 at the Woughton Centre

Do you have the bootleg from Hungary?

Run To The Hills is from the Sportscsarnok Parkolo (Parking Lot), Budapest, Hungary, August 17, 1984 Hallowed Be Thy Name I haven't been able to pinpoint. Supposedly it was recorded at Katowice, Sportshall Makoszowy, Poland, August 14, 1984 but I have my serious doubts

Yep, that's the one! ;)

Unfortunately that's not always how it works. In my case I have personally waited for years (in some case more than 20!) to hear certain stuff and under strict rules. I have even heard uncirculated stuff practially no one knows about with the only intention of deepining my research (if you ever...

But they do have an egg on a cover

Yep, almost every secret gig is mentioned in one of the covers of BYDTTS

That's the whole thing most people don't understand. I have rewarded some people that have shown special kindness or some how set an example for other fans of Maiden. It is also how I have been rewarded with certain things... But some people just seem to think they're entitled to certain things...

Stick long enough and you might get lucky ;)

Ever since 81 Maiden has played secret gigs under different monikers: Genghis Khan (81), Dental Floss Salesman (82), 999 and the inverted morons (83), Live Tonight! Maiden Men (85), Space Heads (86), Charlotte And The Harlots (88), Ron Maiden and the Dixie Chickens (90), Nodding Donkeys (92)...

It was covered by Kerrang and some newspapers. The setlist to that show (where Maiden played under the moniker of The Nodding Donkeys) was: Be Quick Or Be Dead The Number Of The Beast Sanctuay From Here To Eternity Wasting Love Tailgunner The Evil That Men Do Afraid To Shoot...

Well you're going to catch glimpses about how they sounded once you buy the Eddie Made Me Do It. Between 1976-1978 Maiden sounded very different to what they ended up sounding in 1979. Some songs sounded progressive, some song sounded like a bit of reggae, some song were more blusier and then...

Not entirely sure if officially but the Poles knew how to obtain the albums either way.

You mean Highway Road In Time right? Trust me, it ain't that exciting. Is just a bluesy song they played briefly in 1977

No luck so far Samantha! Since I moved to Spain a month ago, there are lot of things still in the suitcases and boxes... Damn and I remember that back in the day the MTV version was downlodable in some sites!

That could very well happen. However, having been to one or other concert where a band plays a new song. When you buy the album and listen to the song you usually say, "ah, I remember hearing that one on the concert I went to". I mean, wouldn't that happen to you?

Th Thanks for the support mate!
