      joe arrowsmith you’re right. I do listen to both...well used too. I got sick of rap. Seemed to me, no variance. Same stories...money, cops are bad, bitches. Old news. The thing with rock and metal is they all tell different stories. Lyrics were legendary...for instance Hotel calif...was for decades and still is debated about. Is it about addiction? Calif? Life? I appreciate good meaningful lyrics..and instrumentals..even these young rap enthusiasts say the same things I’m saying.

      All true. As a former pro pilot myself, I appreciate you bringing this to everyone's attention. Not only is he "just a pilot", but he holds an honorary Certificate from Qantas airlines from Australia! He flies the band around the world in their very own Boeing 747 (before that it was a 757) they call it "Ed Force One". Badass in my humble & accurate opinion. Peace (and long live MAIDEN)!!!

    May 18th, 1982. The first time I saw Iron Maiden. I was already a huge fan! They were opening up for Rainbow and .38 Special. I was excited for the concert but, I was most stoked to see Iron Maiden and Ritchie Blackmore playing with Rainbow. I saw them again in September for my very first Judas Priest show. Seeing Iron Maiden back then was very special. It wasn't like the opening band got done and I was saying "Eh, their alright", It was more like I was saying,"That band is gonna be legendary!" They were so fucking driven to make it big and it showed each and every time they stepped onstage! I have seen Maiden a few times since then and was always so proud of their success and to be a fan since the first album.
    I really enjoy watching people react to hearing this music for the first time. It always reminds me of the first time I dropped a needle on this record. I can still see Eddie's face spinning around on the center sticker of side two!

      IVORY123100 awesome to even be able to recall all that. 👍Summer (I think) of '81 was Van Halen Fair Warning tour. Year earlier was Ozzy on Blizzard of Oz tour. My ear drums are still ring for those 3 years of insane concerts. 😵 Good Ol days. Too much partying. Oh well. Live to tell another day.

      Yeah man .. That was my second concert at the same venue on July 29th 1981 Van Halen / Fair Warning .. I kinda recall The Rods opening up and the following year .. Of course The Number Beast / Screaming for Vengeance .. in July of 82 .. I saw in July of 82 .. UFO opening for Ozzy .. There was no Randy Rhoads .. It was Brad Gillis on guitar .. Looking back I saw some of the most significant bands of that era . In fact my band member bass went on to play for a decently significant band " Iced Earth " and before that opening for acts like Crimson Glory, Fates Warning and Poison .. I wasn't in the band at the time " I sucked !!".. One of my best memories was going to a club in Baltimore " Hammerjacks " in 1984 . Paid a five spot at the door .There was a wrap around bar and I got a beer and had a perfect view overlooking the band ... It was Queensryche ! and during the lead break of Take Hold of The Flame . Geoff Tate climbed the PA and grabbed my hand and stayed there for a minute .. I remember the look on DeGarmo's face looking at me while he was ripping it " Don't Push Him !! " ....LOOL.. When I look back . I saw the beginnings and the best years of some of Metal .. .. I haven't been to a concert in years .. I moved to SC and the last one was Quiet Riot , Ratt, Firehouse and Cinderella ... more of the hair metal aspect but I still had a great time with the women

      I first saw them in 88, I was 16, worked in a donut shop for the night shift after the show! People heard about that experience while drinking their coffee that night, I can tell you! Priest first concert in 87.

      @RolandsSh 5 років тому +3

      Legacy of The Beast tour is insane, saw them in Tallinn. The setlist is quite nice, it has both some deeper cuts and the super-popular hits. And their stage show is just epic, Bruce's voice sounds amazing and he jumps/runs around as if he were 25 years old.
      The only real drawback is openers, I don't really like Killswitch Engage and hearing them live didn't change my opinion of them at all.

      The album that this song was on came out my senior year in high school. I actually saw Iron Maiden before Bruce Dickinson became the lead singer. I also saw them on four other tours during the 80's....there was nobody better during that time when it comes to live shows. So glad I was around and rocking when metal was king!

  • @jameshartwell413
    @jameshartwell413 5 років тому +12

    Bruce Dickinson has one of the most iconic voices in metal. He is also a very accomplished fencer and commercial pilot. Iron Maiden have their own 747 that Bruce pilots when they're on tour. Iron Maiden is my all-time favorite band. Here are some more of their songs to check out/react to:
    Phantom Of the Opera
    Wrathchild
    Children Of the Damned
    The Number Of the Beast
    Revelations
    The Trooper
    Still Life
    To Tame A Land
    2 Minutes To Midnight
    Powerslave
    Rime Of the Ancient Mariner
    Caught Somewhere In Time
    Stranger In A Strange Land
    Alexander The Great
    Moonchild
    Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
    Fear Of the Dark
    When the Wild Wind Blows
    Tears Of A Clown (about Robin Williams)

    I wish I could journey through Iron Maiden's monster sized discography for the first time all over again. 16 studio albums and 12 live albums. Everytime you hear a Maiden song for the first time, that becomes your new favorite Maiden song lol. Consider yourself a lucky man.
    By the way if you're a history buff they have tons of songs about historical people and events. They have songs about Alexander the Great, The Cold War, A British fighter pilot engaging in a dogfight against the Nazis in WW2, The charge of the light brigade in the Crimean War, Icarus of Greek mythology, Ancient Egypt, the Battle of Passchendaele in the first World War, Viking Raids, D-Day, The Pilgrims voyaging to the America's on the Mayflower, The Scottish highlanders defending their land from the English and even a song about a pre-historic Neolithic man's quest for fire. Probably many others I'm not thinking of. They have some cool concept albums as well.

    Iron Maiden's songs are like listening to a theatrical story through music, they are incredible. As a suggestion I recommend Dance of Death and Empire of the Clouds.

    • @KhukuriGod
      @KhukuriGod 5 років тому +1

      I used to hate metal as a kid (was a huge Backstreet Boys fan lol). Then Dance of Death came out in 2003, and a year later my elder brother forced me to listen to the title track. The sheer musical theatrics and the vivid imagery of the lyrics turned me into a religious devotee instantly. As a 13 year old kid who was only exposed to pop music and had only heard a few seconds of really aggressive thrash metal music in passing (accidentally), listening to Dance of Death for the first time was a one-of-a-kind experience in my life. Heaven bless these men for their music!! They even made me love those thrash metal songs I used to hate lol.

    Great reaction. I had this album at 15 and I’m still listening to it at 50. Iron Maiden have so many great songs but maybe you should check out a few more classics like ‘Children of the Damned’ ‘Flight of Icarus’ ‘Two Minutes to Midnight’ ‘Powerslave’ ‘The Trooper’ ‘Revelations’ or, if you willing to give up 13 minutes of your time, ‘The Rime of the Ancient Mariner’. I’m sure that you would love any of these and tell your Mum that she has great taste in music. Love to see a reaction video with you two together.
