Sorry if this has been done before but i havent come across it. Not everyone is in to Maiden becuase of the guitar solos. I think we can all appreciate what goes into a song to make it a great song. Take Mr Harris for example, not only the founder member and prolific song writer he's also a...

The only reason I ask is that I have been a fan of Maiden since about 1985. I have seen them live six times and love the music. However that is probably where my affinity with metal pretty much ends. I have never bought a metal album by another band (I dont class AC/DC as metal - am I right?)...

There is a good debate going on about Maiden's heaviest song but which one would you consider to be their least heavy. I'm not taking into consideration B sides here just focusing on album tracks. I've thought long and hard about this and also considered what makes a song heavy or not. Some...

Although not a very "metal" thing to do and hard for me to admit but (to appease my wife) I sit down on a Saturday night to watch Strictly Come Dancing on BBC1. For those of you in the US it is pretty much the same show as Dancing With The Stars. A little bit of controversy has arisen due to...

Saw this topic was done a couple of years back and thought it would be interesting to see what new members' tastes are like and if any of the oldies have discovered a new tipple. We are talking beer here in it's various forms (lager, bitter, pale ale etc) My favourite is Stella Artois as it'a...

And I don't mean waistlines!!! I have been listening to Maiden and been a devout follower since 1985 or so. They have never been "fashionable", have enjoyed very little airplay on mainstream radio or TV yet they have still managed to sell nearly 100 million albums and sell out concerts all over...

Not looking for this to be an excuse to diss other metal bands ("Yeah I bought "one" by Metallica and they suuuuuuuuuuuck!!") etc but I think we have all been guilty of purchasing a single or even worse an album that has you redfaced with shame and embarassment. To get the ball rolling I...

A not too serious poll here, but, if you workout, train, do sports etc which album provides the best soundtrack and why?? Mine would be Powerslave because the songs are all pretty fast paced and energetic and try sprinting along for 13 minutes to Rime of the Ancient Mariner!!!

Ok time travel is possible and bands from the past and the present can line up for the ultimate rock festival, headlined of course by Maiden. What other bands (six or seven or so) would you have play the gig? Openers: Boston Headliners : Maiden Other bands inbetween in no particular order...

Not looking for anything here that is metal or a similar genre e.g emo, goth, grunge, punk etc? What are the five songs that when you are in a more enlightened mood arouse your senses?? 1: Gary Moore - Still Got the Blues (yes i know gary has a hard rock background but blues aint metal...

unfortunately I was not able to view the eclipse as a: it happened about 3.30am GMT, and it was really foggy anyway. Lunar eclipses have often be taken to signify monumental events. When King Darius III was defeated by Alexander the Great an eclipse had taken place just days before and the...

They just dont make 'em like they used to... I havent seen a film in ages that I have thought was genuinely funny from start to finish. I liked Meet the Parents and Dodgeball of recent times but I think some of the old classics are much better for the giggles. Films like Stir Crazy and The...

Personally I think Seventh Son due it's concept theme and also Somewhere In Time could both have been played front to back on their respective tours.
