    The Concert Thread

    Getting my New Wave on in June with Devo and the B-52's in Manchester. I've been a huge Devo fan for quarter of a century and I was convinced I'd seen Devo for the last time when they played Hammersmith in 2023 but it looks I've got a fifth date with them. And I'm no more than a casual B-52's...

    What are the top 5 worst Maiden songs?

    I've got to be honest, I've never really listened to DOD in depth, particularly after Paschendale but I just looked up the lyrics for that one and... If they aren't the words of a rich, white British man who moved to the Bahamas as soon as he had the financial means to and only gets to know...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES 2026

    'VIP Experience' for me is being able to have a couple of pints in a good pub before a gig and then kipping in my own bed afterwards. A nice hotel that's not too far from the gig and that doesn't cost as much as a down payment on a car is acceptable as well. There's at least one version of...

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

    He's playing a sunburst Jazz bass in those Cart and Horses pics from 1976. Can't tell if it's real or a knock-off from those shots.

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

    Probably the cheapest, no-brand bass available in Steve's local music shop. Body made of chipboard and a neck like a railway sleeper. Best type of instrument to start on; it tests your resolve and sees if you really want to keep playing. I've lost count of how many kids I've started teaching...

    What’s Steve thinking here?

    "Always nice to meet members of the crew from back in the old days."

    Iron Maiden's management: What went wrong?

    I fail to see what the problem is. They are a phenomenally successful band; they get to fill arenas and stadiums and headline festivals all over the world; they have probably the most fiercely loyal fan base in the history of music; they have the respect and admiration of almost all their peers...

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

    Slightly different gear question. I was just reading the World Slavery Tour insert thing that came with Somewhere in Time back in the eighties and on Steve's gear list he has a Danelectro Longhorn bass. Not the sort of instrument you would associate with metal in general and definitely...
