    Thomas has gained almost 10 million views on UA-cam with his arrangements of Iron Maiden songs for classical guitar, making this his most anticipated album to date.
    Zwijsen comments; “in our attempt to choose the best track listing for the most fulfilling, surprising and complete Iron Maiden tribute album, we simply couldn't fit all the songs on a single CD, so we decided to make it a double CD this time. Many of the songs were requests from people on UA-cam. If this were to be the setlist at an Iron Maiden concert, I’d be very happy!”.

    @ThomasZwijsen2007 If Iron Maiden ever comes to perform in your city, they need to have you play alongside them. Your acoustic rendition of Dance Of Death is just wonderfully crafted. Whether you are lover of classical music, or a lover of heavy metal, everyone can truly relish your playing. If I were living in your country, I would spend as much money as I possibly could to get guitar lessons from you.

      +Thomas Zwijsen Well it all depends on how big of a crowd you are looking for. I am sure that the Pub Anchor, downtown Stockholm could fit you in a couple of nights. Pub Anchor is a metal bar open about every night of the week. I don´t have any contacts but I will post the link to the bar below this message. I will let you know if I come up with additional venues. Please let me know if you have any progress! :-)

      you know that not every time you call someone a genius you mean that literally? How many times when someone comes up with some good idea you call him a genius knowing that he isn't an actual genius? Of course there will always be someone more talented than anyone, it doesn't mean we can't give credit to someone who is good by colloquially calling him a "genius" only because there are better artists than him. Don't take everything so literally and first of all don't call anyone "dumb piece of shit" on the internet simply by you don't like what he wrote. Bet you're not being so rude to other people in real life, are you?

    This version of cover music of Iron Maiden's song Dance of Death resembles me some of the most important influencing novels written by best literary minds. Because, then I used to listen to it while reading these novels. These are as follows below,
    1) Les Miserables***
    2) Oliver Twist**
    3) Emil and his fellow detactives***
    4) Uncle Tom's Cabin**
    Etc.
