Most Important Iron Maiden Member is Steve Harris

Let's hope our beloved rhythm section will continue as long as some other examples from bands Steve admires.

Rinus and Cesar (Golden Earring): 46 years
Chris and Alan (Yes): 43 years
Geddy and Neil (Rush): 42 years

Alan White is a funny one because, like Nicko, he joined a few albums later. Although he also didn't play on most of the band's most known and loved albums. So despite being one of the most longstanding members of the band (afaik he never left since joining either), to many casual Yes fans who remember them for having Bill Bruford, he's still "the new guy". I wonder if Steve paid much attention to the post-Bruford Yes.

Seems impossible. To get to Lee & Peart they'd have to play 8 years more, by which point Nicko will be 72 years old.

I didn't think Rush would last as long as they did.
