Deep down he's probably just jealous that Maiden has managed to remain relevant and active enough to successfully tour extensively on new material so late into their career.

Hear, hear! Thanks for keeping this place hate-free and welcoming to all. :cheers:

I know it's not really the same, but there are some great clips of him playing full Maiden tracks at his drum clinics. This one has Trooper, a drum solo, and Moonchild:

PASCHENDALE! Anything from AMOLAD Anything from BNW

Thanks for sharing! Nothing too surprising there, but it's nice to hear it from Nicko himself.

Yep. Derek even did a reworked version of Eddie supposedly for the 2008 Maiden England rerelease, which used to be up on his website. Sadly it's gone now, and this is the largest version of it I've been able to find:

Dave is ok, per some intel from the FC forum

...and better booklets that don't have a bunch of incorrect photos from different eras of the band in them...

It's because this is just a recording of the live mix. This is literally just how Pooch mixed the drums to get them to sound good thru the PA at whatever venue this was shot at.

I'll be screaming and clapping as loud as I can in front of my TV from the other side of the world :D

THIS. The current Iron Maiden lineup should and will be the last one they ever have. Nicko is irreplaceable at this point. Let Joe Lazarus have his own career doing what he wants to do with his own bands.

I hope this shuts the "replace Nicko" crowd up for good. The fact that he's been playing as well as he has after a stroke in JANUARY is nothing short of a miracle. People speculated about wrist, shoulder, and back injuries, or artistic choices, but a stroke? Not even a thought or theory about...

What a fucking legend. Unbelievable that this happened in January and by March he was out there playing an insanely difficult set night after night. I would have completely understood if he decided to retire. Has off to him and eternally grateful for every day we have with him and this band on...

Future Past World Tour, but 100% perfect instead of 93.33% perfect: 1. Caught Somewhere In Time 2. Stranger In A Strange Land 3. The Writing On The Wall 4. Days of Future Past 5. The Time Machine 6. The Prisoner 7. The Parchment 8. Can I Play With Madness 9. Heaven Can Wait 10. Alexander The...

Ummm... meeting other like-minded fans, getting to know them, hanging out all day, and then belting along to every single guitar riff and lyric together as one big chorus in the front row is an incredible way to experience Iron Maiden.

They could have easily had more physical iceberg props around the edges of the back and side ramps (like the glowing hieroglyph panels for the non-plane legs of SBIT), and in the corners where they typically do some kind of "tower" (reapers for DOTR, space needles for TFF, Mayan pyramids for...

I think the biggest missed opportunity stage-show wise in recent memory has to be Maiden England. Compared to the original Seventh Tour stage set, it was just so flat and dull. Too much emphasis on pyro, not enough emphasis on icebergs :P

HEAR, HEAR!!! Especially glad to see RSRD and TAATG get some love. Both would fit great in a modern-day Maiden set in my opinion.

FTTB in the US is generally a lot more relaxed. Every time I've won for a US show, I've arrived at the venue early afternoon and had a spot on the rail.
