      Was in Roskilde in 2001 and Maiden was there and did just absolutely incredible. Three songs in they stopped and Dickinson was just speaking to the crowd with the pamphlet in his hand explaining that the arrangers had been great to them, but they had insulted them badly with this "Iron Maiden might play some new songs from their new album Brave New World. Well fuck em! We're gonna play everything we got!" And then they did just that. I lasted until about 3AM after having gotten up at seven that morning, then I had to get back to my tent, and there were like 8 people (out of the initial 10k+) left when I had to throw in the towel, and I heard them playing as I lay in my sleeping bag for probably another couple of hours before I fell asleep. Insane guys, legendary.
      Unfortunately my memories are a bit tainted regarding that festival, given the day after or so on the Pearl Jam concert 9 people died from being trampled and squeezed to death by the crowd, which made me just freak out, pack up my shit and skip the last day of the festival trying to get home. Really glad the Maiden concert was before that.

    "That's what the original type of metal should be like". Iron Maiden is widely considered to be one of the original three progenitors of metal (along with Black Sabbath and Judas Priest), so you're 100% correct.

    I normally hate reaction channels cause they're so boring and they Never pause the video and talk to their audience. They always seem so forced and robotic on camera. However Alex is so different, he talks to the camera and pauses the videos. He also has a bubbly personality that people can relate, another plus side is that he's a Rockets supporter as well. 🚀

    • @lardonirdesco
      @lardonirdesco 4 роки тому +13

      Originally calling Bruce an Air Raid Siren was not intended as a good thing when it was first conceived...
      When Bruce joined the band before the Number of the Beast Album the record label and management company got a load of angry letters from fans who where unhappy that Paul Di'Anno was replaced, Rod Smallwood was going through the letters and noticed that one of them described Bruce as sounding like a 'Human Air Raid Siren'.
      He thought that's not a bad thing, thats a good thing...... and so the nickname was born.....

      David Stephens: Agreed. Plus, he is one helluva songwriter as well.
      I met Steve back in the 80's when they landed in Portland Maine for the Powerslave tour.
      I had walked up into town from the Bath Iron Works shipyard in Portland where my ship the USS DEYO (DD989) was in drydock for a refit that was supposed to take just 9 months but wound up taking a year and a half because the ship yard worker's union went on strike halfway through the refit.
      Anyway.
      But there was a concert arena on the other side of town and I decided to stop at McDonald's for dinner on my way to the arena.
      Funny thing was, while I was walking, I noticed two guys on the other side of the street and my brain was like "wait...that sure looks an awful lot like Steve Harris of Iron Maiden. What the heck is he doing walking around Portland?"
      The guy with him of course was Steve's security/body guard.
      So I landed at McDonalds, and was standing in line waiting for my turn to order and in the line next to mine, there was Steve and his body guard.
      I just turned, stuck my hand out, and said "Steve Harris. Nice to meet you. I'm a huge Iron Maiden fan and I'm on my way to the arena for the concert."
      Steve shook my hand and was just really nice. Didn't say a whole lot but he seemed very cool. He seemed to like Portland.
      And he was a bit shorter than I expected. But that happens a lot.
      Rock stars being shorter in real life than they seem to be when you see them on stage.
      And no, I didn't ask for his autograph. I choose not to do that.
      I decided a long time ago that whenever I am fortunate enough to meet someone famous that I will never ask for their autograph.
      Everyone does that to them and I wanted to be the exception to that particular rule.
      I just felt then and feel now like, if I get to shake their hand and even just have a semi-normal conversation with them regardless of how short, I will always have those great memories and maybe for even just a moment the famous person will feel some sense of relief that they don't have to feel obligated to sign yet another autograph for yet another autograph hound.
      Granted, it means giving up having actual "physical proof" that I'd met the person, but I have never cared about that.
      Meeting someone famous is always an honor for me.
      If they take even a minute or half a minute to chat with me like a normal human being, for me that's better than an autograph every day of the week.
      And I do my best never to hit them up while they're eating a meal or having conversations with friends or family members.
      I figure they get that shit all the time, I don't want to be yet another star struck fan slobbering all over them trying to get an autograph while they're trying to have a normal family meal.
      But that's me.

    Back in 1992 i (a 14 y.o boy) went round this guys house to get a copy of Guns n Roses APPETITE FOR DESTRUCTION, he had played it at the local youth club and i thought it was out of this world, he said he'd make a copy for me, anyway as he we talked he said i could have these 3 other cassettes he didn't need anymore, they were all of a band called IRON MAIDEN, those 3 cassettes were: Iron Maiden, Killers & The Number of the Beast. So, on that 1 day i acquired 4 amazing albums, 2 of which i consider the best 2 albums ive ever heard, those 2 being APPETITE for DESTRUCTION & NUMBER OF THE BEAST, 26 years later they are just as good as the 1st time i listened to them, and Run to the Hills is 1 of my all time favorites.

      I think Alex, will always have a soft spot for Hip Hop but he understands that metal has more passion, intensity and musicianship. Metal has something you can't get with hip hop or any other genre of music and for the most part they don't need to be as offensive lyrically as rap and hip hop. I think with the exception of a few artists, most rap and hip hop music is lazy lyrically. More swearing and offensive lyrics does not make for a better song. And what is with some of the stupid names. What the fuck is a Fetty Wap.
