      I was in the military couple of years ago, sometimes they made us train "static", basically means you just stand at attention for X amount of time. Everybody hated it, I liked it, since I was just playing some Iron Maiden songs in my head. That was also a good way to keep track of time, since, obviously, I knew how long given song is.

      I do believe he may form an interest in the genre now. I started out as a lead soprano in my school choir until my voice broke. The next time I was moved to sing on stage in public was after seeing Iron Maiden live had enthused me to start my own metal band, The Uninvited (not to be confused with the American metal band of the same name, of whom we'd never heard, and this was before the World Wide Web). The band lasted a fantastically enjoyable eleven years.
      And I still love metal above all other musical genres, Iron Maiden above all other metal bands, and Hallowed Be Thy Name above all other metal songs, closely followed by Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Powerslave, Flight of Icarus and Alexander the Great (which they've never played live AFAIK).

    As a guy that's been listening to Maiden for 35 years, it's always awesome to see someone's first reaction to it. Every member of that band is a finely tuned machine perfected for around 50 years of playing together. Watching my own kids reaction to it was incredible.
    When it's possible, you should really get out to a live concert. Bruce Dickinson still has all the energy of a cocaine riddled 18 year old somehow. But a live Maiden show is definitely life changing.
    It gives you some perspective on the band to listen to the first 6 albums of their discography.. Iron Maiden, Killers, Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind, Powerslave, Live after Death..
    In those albums you can physically hear the evolution of the band. From a talented pub band that started out playing punkish rock n roll in the first album with Paul Di'anno on vocals , to really they're commitment to being a metal band in the second album, then they fire Di'anno before the 3rd album and bring Bruce Dickinson on and the whole thing explodes, and the talent starts to get better and better..
    It's like listening to the Lord of the Rings trilogy spread out over 6 albums.

We lived in a small town where there was not much to do, especially on a week day, so we were literally hanging out in front of a store drinking beer. When we got pretty warmed up my buddy started singing Hallowed be thy name. All three of us sang the whole thing from start to finish, a cappella, with all the guitars and everything. We can't sing for shit, but it sounded sublime to us. And it's one of my favorite memories from high school days. Damn I wish I had just one more week in my teens!

    Bruce Dickinson being in the pantheon of metal vocal heroes is an understatement. The man is a founding member and reigning god of the metal vocal pantheon. Even after throat cancer damage.
    As for Iron Maiden in general, one of the first heavy metal bands, doing this since the late 70s! Unarguably one of the most influential metal bands to ever grace a stage, always putting on a good show, respecting the fans, great lyrical content, display of technical mastery at what they do and some of the loudest and most attended live gigs on the face of this planet.
    Even among people who don't get into their music, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who knows what these guys are about and doesn't respect them.
    Absolute legends. UP THE IRONS!

      Well, I disagree. He recorded the 1st album with the band. So I consider him the original. If you go by whoever sat on the drumkit every time Harris took a Bass in his hands, you'd probably have a very long list. Cheers, though!

A buddy of mine has the the same kind o' pranks but each finger is half an inch longer and a God on guitar! He literally tabs all ten on the fret board and it sounds golden (we're doing it accustic) but somehow I manage to keep up and give color.

      Maiden definitely overdid it on the touring back in the day after 82. Bruce kinda reinvented himself tho after he left maiden tho.
