The Hermit
Invader
Sorry to trouble you all with my problems.....but having been visiting this Forum for a few weeks now it has occurred to me that with luck a number of you may be able to shed some light on an old problem I have (rest easy.....its not medical) and a developing situation that requires a little research on my part.
First the old problem: I am not an IMFC member but often visit the official website......the problem is I can't access the Eddiesmegastore site. I click on the link, a new window opens, but it then seems to get stuck in some loop and never loads the window....is this only for FC members? Does anyone else have the same problem? I've sent emails to the Maiden website a couple of times in the past.....maybe the emails aren't getting through either as I've had no response. I've looked for links in other places and tried accessing directly through search engines, all to no avail.......If someone can shed some light on this problem I'd be exceedingly grateful.
Second issue. Although Nicko doesn't seem to enjoy the 'theatre/seated auditorium' gigs so much, the Yokohama show was just the chance my daughter was waiting for to see her first Iron Maiden concert (Poor girl.....Her first ever concert just happened to be Maiden's 'Classic' tour! I fear she's doomed to many disappointments in the future with other bands). A big Maiden fan before the gig....she is now Maiden-mad. Living in Japan, none of her friends can understand her obsession.....none of them had even heard of Maiden until she introduced them. But that's not a problem that I seek assistance with.
Being a Rock fan, she naturally had a desire to play the guitar and it was always 'there' as a future ambition.....however, seeing Maiden live has added great urgency to this desire. So much so that action needs to be taken. I myself didn't pick up a guitar until I hit University. I understand that smaller 'youth' guitars are available, but am wondering what advice anyone out there has on the subject. My daughter stands 4 feet 10 (a little tall for her age) to give an idea of the size we're talking here. I'm tempted to just go with a full size guitar....which would be difficult for her to handle at first....but which she will soon grow into. Advice on the subject would once again be gratefully accepted
