    Dave Mustaine Supports Rick Santorum

    Truth be told, I don't like either political party in the United States, I think they're both much more similar than they would like the public to believe. On the issues that matter most to me, such as the PATRIOT Act and the NDAA (the first allows warrantless wiretapping of citizens and the...

    Dave Mustaine Supports Rick Santorum

    Actually, Dave is claiming Holy Wars as an example of how he had "knowledge" of these conspiracies for a long time, the line "The end is near, it's crystal clear, part of the master plan." I think, after looking more into this, I'll give a small, partial defense of Dave. While the gagging...

    Iron Maiden's worst song (AKA the Head to Head results thread)

    I can understand those as thoughts, but I still find the line somewhat cheesy, while the rest of the lyrics are fairly good. And I still think that the chorus drags down the rest of the song. I think the rest of the song is in the middle-low range of No Prayer, but with the chorus it is (in my...

    Iron Maiden's worst song (AKA the Head to Head results thread)

    I certainly don't think that Wildest Dreams is a great chorus, though, in its defense, you misquoted it, as the main chorus does not consist of two "I'm"s in a row ("I'm on my way/Out on my own again/I'm on my way/Out on the road again"), though the alternate chorus does ("I'm on my way/Out on...

    Great thanks to murder?

    I think quite possibly the most laughable connection was how Charlotte the Harlot is about murder because, "Prostitutes are often the targets of homicidal maniacs." Or maybe the fact that he left out Drifter because he couldn't find anything to tie it to murder.

    Great thanks to murder?

    I think it might win "stupidest criticism of Iron Maiden," narrowly beating out "HIDE THE CHILDREN! SATANISTS!"

    Iron Maiden's worst song (AKA the Head to Head results thread)

    A worse chorus than The Assassin? No way. Say what you want about the rest of the song, but The Assassin's chorus is terribly cheesy. Not just the lyrics, but the way that "Cos I' m the ASSAAAAAAAAAAAAASSIN" overlaps "Better watch out." Wildest Dreams' isn't great, but it is still at least...

    Iron Maiden's worst song (AKA the Head to Head results thread)

    I would say that it belongs in the bottom third, but not this close to the bottom. On Dance of Death alone, I rank it about Gates of Tomorrow and New Frontier.

    Iron Maiden's worst song (AKA the Head to Head results thread)

    I'm a fan of The Angel and the Gambler, I've defended it on several occasions here. However, it definitely is in the bottom half of my rankings.

    Great thanks to murder?

    Since I've nothing better to do, I'll save anyone else the trouble and point out every instance in which this moron is incorrect. Just so you know, this is a complete rampage in which my overly sarcastic personality comes out. I think it's funny, some people may not, I won't be offended if you...

    Dave Mustaine Supports Rick Santorum

    @LooseCannon: It is of course your perogative to refuse your business to those who take actions with their profits with which you disagree, and I support your right to and understand your reasons to do so. I choose not to, because I tend to focus on the immediate exchange (what am I giving them...

    Dave Mustaine Supports Rick Santorum

    Dave Mustaine is a known fan of American radio host and conspiracist Alex Jones, and has in fact done multiple interviews with Jones in the past. Jones' documentary "Endgame" was the inspiration for the Megadeth song of the same name. Personally, I'm not big on the New World Order conspiracies...

    As I said, I was at the Albuquerque show. I'll be mentioning individual songs throughout the rest of the post so to make it easy I'll just put the whole thing in spoilers

    Advice on Maiden t-shirts-2 questions

    If you go to the Iron Maiden website (this link), there is a choice between two online stores which are the sources of official merchandise. The first one is UK-based, the second is US-based. They have different selections, though, so check out both.

    2 Minutes To Midnight third solo?

    Okay, well, I have yet to get Live At Donington or A Real Live Dead One (I will soon though), so I didn't know that the difference began that early. However, from my layman's perspective, that seems like a rather large change to make, since on the studio version, there is not much guitar on that...

    2 Minutes To Midnight third solo?

    I've searched around here but I couldn't find anything about this. This is something that I've noticed and was curious about, so sorry if it turns out I missed this and that it was common knowledge. The thing I noticed is: Since the reunion, Iron Maiden has added a very short "solo" part in 2...
