Great point! I’ve seen Maiden quite a few times and this year I saw Priest for the first time and it was generally from what I saw 50-60 year olds which is fine obviously but I’d not thought about that until you said that…also Priest sucked live 😔 whereas Maiden are better live than studio 🤘🏻

@ryant3600 Год назад

@@symbiosisai Been a fan since early 80's and I have massive respect for Clive and asking that question to me as a huge fan of this band is kind of insulting. It's like asking if Adrian is better than Dave or vice versa etc. Can't do that. Both drummers are extremely different, both are incredibly talented. That being said, I love Nicko and what he's done w/ Maiden and he's such a good dude. Clive like Paul just couldn't kick their habits/addictions when Maiden needed them to. Sadly of course we lost Clive but Clive had massive respect for Nicko. And let's be real no one has a better. faster foot in the business. Nicko doesn't need two pedals. This tour they're on now the dude is in his 70's and still killing it

@jangles1839 Год назад

@@symbiosisai the way I see it is that both of those drummers...as well as any other in a major label band is phenomenal in their own right. I see it as they're part of something that is good enough to earn a recording contract so they're pretty friggin amazing! We each have our favorites for diff reasons and that's part of what makes music so wonderful! 🤘🏼🥁🤘🏼

I'd heard this song thousands of times on the Poweslave album over the years but when I heard it live on this actual tour, it elevated the song to a whole new level and now when I hear it on Powerslave it seems somehow even better than it did in the past. What a masterpiece! Lifer? Hell yes I'm a lifer🤘🤘

You hit on the head mate. After some really bad concert sound, I have very selective in the bands I go to see live now. Metallica on the new tour has dropped the ball on their sound set-up. Unless you pony up and pay $$$thousands you will NOT get good sound these days. Fuck 'em all.

@michaelpennington9327 Год назад

Huge Maiden fan here. Love to see you doing them. I’ve seen Maiden 11 times since my first in 1987. Always a great show. There are two sections of this song that directly quote the poem. The lines “ay after day, day after day, we stuck, no breath nor motion As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean Water, water everywhere and all the boards did shrink Water, water everywhere nor any drop to drink” and the “lull” section, “One after one by the star dogged moon Too quick for groan or sigh Each turned his face with a ghastly pang And cursed me with his eye Four times 50 living men (And I heard nor sigh nor groan) With heavy thump, a lifeless lump They dropped down, one by one.”

I’ve been to 4 Maiden concerts. First in 82, last in 2019. They’re amazing. Killer live band. The lyrics of this song are based on Coleridge’s poem. It’s a long poem, but very much worth reading. Interesting to note that Coleridge also inspired Rush’s Xanadu.

@Sacred_Silence Год назад

I've been to 3. First time was all for them, second because Dream Theater opened for them and I worked security for the third. Great show every time! All back in the late 2000s

@johnr.8275 11 месяцев назад

And Coleridge admitted to "being under the influence of cannabis" when he wrote it. Dude was ahead of his time! What kills me about this song is that Steve Harris said that, comparative to other things he has written, this didn't take all that long to write. It seems like it's often that way: songs and albums that come in a flash of inspiration end up being all-time classics.

@Paul_Allaker8450 Год назад

And to think they're pushing on towards their 70's (Nicko is 71) and they're still killing it, they are going to tour again next year so keep a look out for dates as it might be the last time you'll get a chance to see them. I've seen them twice live and they just smashed it, so good live. 👍🏻

They sound so good on this tour! I saw them both nights at London O2, they crushed it both nights. For their ages, to still do back to back nights is impressive, but to do it at as good a level as they have possibly ever been at, they are the greatest. I mean, this is the band that nearly 40 years ago almost upstaged QUEEN! I always wonder what would have been if Maiden hadn’t pushed Queen to play even better at the start of 1985… would Queen have gone on to perform “the greatest 20 minutes in music history” at Live Aid? Proud to call both bands my hometown (London) heroes.

Big fan and glad to see Nico getting some recognition. Seen Maiden twice in NZ (Chch), and once in London. The London gig was interesting - was a warm-up gig for the Brave New World tour back in 99-00 (can't quite remember?) at the Sheppards Bush Empire - which only holds a couple of thousand. No stage show, just a few lights, and a wall of Marshalls (think: Spinal Tap set to 12). Was like going to the pub to watch Iron Maiden. Fantastic night. The world is a better place with Maiden in it...

@ryant3600 Год назад

I've seen Maiden a few times, They brought this tour to my city on my wifes birthday so we went and my wife instantly became a Maiden fan. She's not a metal fan at all, she was a theater kid and young adult theater singer, but she loved Maiden the theatrics, the musicality, the story telling. She said Maiden live is like seeing a stage show, just louder. She's right. But this tour was epic everyone was in top shape like always. Maiden never disappoints.

"Where eagles dare" - Iron Maiden. It was Nicko McBrain's debut with Iron Maiden and the drum section is unbelievable.

@catboxvideo 11 месяцев назад

Went to the World Slavery tour when i was a lad... it was unexpected, and well mind blowing. it was truly a theatrical production, I also happen to be a fan of the original poet, the song contains a couple of stanza from the poem "water water everywhere and all the boards did shrink, water water everywhere not a drop to drink' and the spoken word during the 'lull' basically the song is just a deferent telling of the story, like there versions of Murder in the Rue Morgue, Flight of Icarus, The Trooper, Phantom of the Opera , etc. The bassist - S. Harris - is extremely well versed in literature and history - Run to the Hills is one of the best songs about the horrors the US military laid on the first nation, Aces High - battle of Britton, again the Trooper , Ghegis Khan, one of the best and most influential bands to come out of the 70s, I am glad that you are looking into them. they have a lot to offer,. If you really want to get a feel for the band itself - Wasted Years (the actual video) as it has a ton of :me and the boys: footage - off stage , being english and you see how much of a family those guys are.

I'm sure hoping we did it justice and every time I listen to it it brings back great memories of every nuance that Nicko put into this performance. Have been to their NZ shows in Auckland, ASB Showgrounds was one, and a couple others at Mt Smart (from memory)😁 Nicko's single kick drum and playing barefoot makes him one of the all time greats!

Been a Maiden fan for 35 years. Have always felt Nicko rarely gets mentioned in the “greatest drummers” conversation. The man makes the drums sing like few other players.

@olagsanger7436 Год назад

Seen these guys 26 times since the 80's, and they blew my head off every time. The first and the last time left the deepest scratches on my bones. Oh - i forgot: 1999, just when sir Dickinson was back, just before 'Brave New World', added som serious scratches too.

Loved this review. Love Iron Maiden, only seen them 5 times since '91 but incredible each time. Last time I saw them was earlier this year at London O2, where I actually caught Nicko's drum skin (we have a vlog from that concert including footage of me actually catching the skin). As someone else said in the comments below, Nicko had a stroke recently and by his own admission was only about 70% match fit at the start of the tour....he was still incredible!!!! Up the Irons, new sub here. Cheers

Saw the irons in taunton somerset uk, 1982. They were fantastic then and they have improved every year since. All the band members now are doing what they love,look at thier faces while playing,they couldnt have enjoyed work any more! Fantastic band and a great bunch of 'lads' that produce theatrical shows with brilliant songs and music. I've not been able to see them live since then but I have watched many concerts over a over and usually with headphones on and volume at 11ish! Oh and Nico recently had a stroke but is now well on the way to 100%. That is dedication,my wife had a stroke and the work involved in just doing normal day to day things is huge,imagine getting back behind a kit as the time keeper as well,the best! Up the irons!

Iron Maiden is the best concert I have ever been to by a far margin. Sept 20th 2019 Dallas Texas.

I saw and -most important- heard this song live at Valle Hovin in Oslo in 2008, this is the best thing i have experienced with my clothes on. What a show. Maiden has also teached and educated me more about historical events and battles more than any teacher can do. The "Empire of the clouds" about the accident with the R-101 airship, i would never know about this if it wasn't for Maiden. When I heard Bruce sing for the first time "She's the biggest vessel built by men, a giant of the skies, for all you unbeleivers, the Titanic fits inside" it just gave me freezing chills down my back.

This is so unbelievably good! In the late 90s my mother gifted me a cassette. It contained Powerslave copied to it from the LP. Unfortunately the last part of Rime didn't fit on it and I spent years trying to find a copy with the complete song. In 1998 they re-released their early albums on CD and I finally got to hear the final solo in its complete form. Iron Maiden is definitely the best band I've seen live ever. Andrew, I would love it if you could take a look at the British band Wishbone Ash. They were pioneers in dual lead guitar playing and inspired many great bands, including Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy, Metallica, Dream Theater and many more. They have sort of a medieval or folky feel to their music, while being quite jazzy and hard rocking at the same time with solos from all the instruments etc.

@wintyrqueen Год назад

“Clean double kicks”… those are single kicks. Nicko doesn’t use a double pedal 🦶 Yeah, the Flight 666 stuff is a really good representation of what their shows are like. Saw them on that tour when they were in New Zealand… Bruce introduced this song by botching about boy racers in Christchurch making too much noise & not letting him get to sleep 😅

@vanessap7656 4 месяца назад

Just seen them non stop for the last 10 years with every tour. STILL the best!! Go see them before it’s too late 🙏Up The Irons🖤

@johnr.8275 11 месяцев назад

The look on your face when you looked up and said, "This is AWESOME" just cracked me up. Because it reminded me of myself - I'm aging myself here - in 1982 listening to the copy of "The Number of the Beast" that I, ahem....."borrowed"..... from my older sister. She has since moved on to other, lighter music, but I never stopped with Iron Maiden and the like; I still love them 41 years later. Just got tickets last night to see them in '24, actually! On a somewhat related note, if you ever get a chance to hear Bruce Dickinson tell the story about how him and a friend got stranded for 12 hours on a nearly deserted island - and called to ask Nicko to fly over and pick them up - it's well worth it. One of the funniest stories I have ever heard.

@Allgoodbookstores Год назад

I was 15 years old at Birmingham NEC, front middle, standing & remember feeling nervous about the crowd behind until the band came on. They ran straight at us & got in our faces, I was so pleased I knew the words 😆😆 I’ve never forgotten the experience, Steve was scary as fxxk, possibly the best gig I’ve ever witnessed. I’m almost 50 now, it’s a long time ago but the aggression is still fresh in my mind, what a band!

@purpleir Год назад

I would suggest you think about traveling to see them live! They are that good! The feeling of being in that crowd! Oh my! Having witnessed it a few times I can tell you it is not a concert is an out of body experience! They just make you happy!

@JasonSmith-lp6wg Год назад

Actually, he doesn't use a double kick; it's all single pedal foot work! As for drums, he uses Sonor and Paiste Cymbals (especially, their ColorSound cymbals. If you watch the 1984 version of this song, Nicko's cymbals look like they are coloured with crayons!).

@chuckm6592 Год назад

Nicko actually left Sonor a few tours ago and is now using British Drum Company drums

@villesalonen6057 Год назад

Nicko switched from Sonor to Premier in 1993. He played Premier drums until 2014. The production of Premier's high-end stuff had been moved to Taiwan in 2013 (at that point, their lower lines had been made in the Far East for years) so Nicko switched back to Sonor. Then after a few years with Sonor, he switched to British Drum Company.

@emilholmgrenmusic Год назад

Listen to it again with the knowledge that Nicko plays it all with just his right foot on the kick drum. He always played single pedal. Also yeah, I play barefoot at home. I think I played in my socks back when I played live.

@MrChrispy360 Год назад

first video of yours i watched i have been to 5 maiden concerts so far and its just so amazing

@tiacd3780 Год назад

The branch of metal you refer to is New Wave of British Heavy Metal, bands like Maiden, Saxon, Motorhead are NWBHM, and yes Maider were EPIC live, got to see them on the Somewhere Back in Time tour in Christchurch in 2009, in terms of stage shows, the only other one that would be a production like that would have been Alice Cooper

@anitnec Год назад

No double kick except for the Song " Face in the Sand " . Double Kick with a Single pedal like double stroke . Barefoot player after the 90's . He is famous for the Heal and Toe technic Ciao !

To go to an Iron Maiden show is one of the best ways to spend your money. You will never be disappointed.

@bobkincey Год назад

Big Iron Maiden fan. I was 11 years old when I first listen to the first album. My first concert was in 1993, and I've seen them live 7 other times since then. It's always great, always fun. You see 3 or 4 generations watching the show together. It's just awesome. Cheers!

@ivanbutler6079 Год назад

Been a few times to concerts - worth it. First time I wasn't a fan before, not even some years after... but something happened and then I got it. Play their songs on guitar now.. great fun.

@miketarr225 5 месяцев назад

Maiden , can't say enough about them , has been my favorite band since 1981 , I was 10 years old when I listened to my brothers Maiden albums and ever since then they been my favorite.

@Keith_KC8TCQ Год назад

I've seen Maiden several times, starting back in the early 80's. They ALWAYS put on a great show. What's more, they themselves are having fun on stage, you can see it in their eyes, and the way they interact with each other on stage. Watching them is like watching a bunch of kids who are best friends goofing around, but they happen to be excellent musicians. Nicko is a beast on drums, he can do things with his right foot that other drummers would need a second pedal for.

@raistlinrodriguez5696 Год назад

If you go to a Maiden concert and you don't get home exhausted and lose your voice, then you're not a Maiden fan or you went to the wrong concert. Iron Maiden are an experience not just a concert. They set the standard for concerts and all bands can learn from them in how to give a performance.

@gildo101rossi Год назад

Still drumming now after having a stroke not long ago, and by his own words still not 100% yet. Was brilliant when I saw them a few months back

In high school my buddy got kicked out of his house for going to an Iron Maiden show. (I went to see them too.) It was his favorite band and he had to see them. Good times! Btw this was over 30 years ago and yes, still love them today. As you can see by the video, they are the real deal.

I'm surprised it hasn't been suggested yet, but on the opening of the first album Nicko appears is the track "Where Eagles Dare". It is and excellent showcase of some fantastic drumming. To this day Nicko still plays parts of it when he does drum clinics.

@flekkzo Год назад

If you get the chance you have to see them. They are on a short list of all time greats in the genre. I’m real happy to have seen both them and AC/DC. I’ve seen them five times live, been a fan since the 80s. But if I say “I’ve seen them five times” to the biggest fans, their reply will be “only five times this tour?”. (Saw them live the first time in the early 90s, and the most recent last time they hit town. You can see that they are older, but 90% of Maiden is more than you’ll get of most bands.)
