2 years ago, my older brother divorced my psychopath sister in law. Never had I seen him so sad before, so we went to an Alice Cooper concert- during a solo, Nita Strauss looked at him, smiled, and threw a guitar pick at his forehead. Bro kept talking about it for the rest of the night, made his summer!
I was the last guy in line at SweetWater Gearfest for Nita's signature and a picture. She had been signing for at least and hour already. The line was halfway across the lot. I almost missed the opportunity because she wanted to go get a bite to eat but she took the time to take a selfie with me. I must say, she is a real pro and a real sweetheart. Thanks, Nita!
AC/DC and Iron Maiden are my fave bands of the last nearly 40 years. Both play rock but both are very different. AC/DC...simple bluesy r n r that they make sound so easy, and Iron Maiden who regularly play songs in excess of 8 minutes with three lead/rhythm guitars and extensive lyrics. Both excellent at what they do. No Bull from either
I went to my local store and wanted to buy a guitar I could solo on which was very different then by rhythm PRS. After playing a bunch I tried the Jira. I had no idea who Nita was since I’m not a metal guy. Wow! The guitar rocks. Super flat. So easy to play. Great tone. I bought it and love it. It’s really an amazing guitar.
I have to agree. As a long time Iron Maiden fan, I think Gers has done an amazing job in Iron Maiden. He adds so much to the sound. I hate seeing people bash on him.
Gers did do a lot for Iron Maiden. However, he plays a lot of Adrian’s solos very poorly and sloppy. He’s great at doing his own solos, but not Adrian’s, but that’s just me
@@keithholm7493 Hi Keith 👋 I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you….
That's a badass video Glen. Both of these lovely ladies are seriously talented and just goes to show woman can shred just as well as men. I'm partial to Nita being a huge Maiden fan and playing an awful lot of maiden myself. Nice job Glen!
I was unaware there's an Iron Maiden fan camp hating on Janick Gers. The dude is fantastic. When you've been a band for, what, 40+ years, it's nice to have a guy in there that sort of goes into his own thing and keeps things fresh.
UA-cam keeps putting these old videos in my feed lately, after more than three years of watching everything Glenn puts out as soon as it's uploaded, so the plan is working!!! Hopefully we can bump the subscription count up a bit too! Good work guys and gals!
Back to binging for a few hours. It’s going to take me days to get through this playlist. If not a few weeks. But this is me doing my part to support Glenn and Julie.
I'm just throwing this out there as an FYI - you can open more that one browser and stream more than one playlist at the same time. I have two computers streaming two playlists on each one. Mute the laptop, not the browsers. Give it a try!
As a recent subscriber, I am really enjoying discovering this whole library. Great interview of great guitarists. Wish the video was five times as long.
I love my line 6 Helix. Thehe Simplicity of hitting one button and doing so many controls at once is priceless. I don't like tap dancing and I don't like a lot of petals. Just to show that just made my day. Oh PS yes I have a fractal audio ax8 but I sidelined at and packed it away and went back to the Helix for the simplicity. Thanks Glenn for the video and the female guitarist on the show.
I saw Rock or Bust concert in Manchester, 2016, and watch Axl singing Bon Scott songs was very surprising to me. He did a very good job. His voice fit very well. Angus decided to include few old gems in the setlist that they haven't played for long time because of Axl's voice. Unfortunately I also noticed many empty seats during the show, probably because many fans didn't want to see Axl on stage.
"It's basically a Steve Vai guitar, it looks super cool with the handle, does that help you get your guitar on stage?" Lmao Glenn, I died laughing at that shit, that was amazing!
I agree w/ Nita.. Janick is perfect for Maiden now.. Been a fan since 82' and I still love Janick, he brings energy...and he helped write some amazing iconic Maiden riffs..
I love my Helix. I'm not tone grandpa and have thousands of hours of experience with the actual pedals and amps that are modeled in the unit. I don't care about any of that. The sound is what's important and the Helix is excellent in that regard. I don't give a rat's ass if the JCM 800 or whatever sounds slightly different than one someone played back in the 80s in their creepy uncle's basement, the one in the Helix is easily good enough (as are all the amps).
yes, depending on tubes, bias, eq, any mods.. speakers, guitar... ect...ect...ect ... The Helix is close enough for any stage, and guess what, I am sure you know.. no one in the audience cares...
exactly my point. It's also plenty satisfying to play through and snapshots are truly incredible for jamming and gigs alike. I send my Helix through a Mesa 2x12 for tracking sometimes or to have a cab on stage but FOH gets IRs and so does my interface at home. It's a versatile piece of kit.
yes, I have not used snapshots, but I have only been using it for a two months for real, got it and was going to return it, then I learned how to uses IR's and how to place effects, like delay after the speaker.. who knew.. well not me an old tube amp guy.. Still love my "real Amps" but see no reason to use them live anymore..
I planned to send my Helix back as well until I started tweaking the first time. I actually didn't start using snapshots until last night. Seamlessly switching sounds without audio cutout is too awesome.
I am an X-guitar player who switched to bass. (DERP). I must tell you that listening to you rip into bass players really opened my eyes. My playing has improved so much taking your advise. I saw a video on Nita about a year ago I think and she blew me away. Love your shows and keep up on us fucking bass players . By the way, Keep the FUCKS dude.
4:15 That's why push/push-knobs should be the norm... Those things are rather hard to find, even though they're more logical to use in between playing. - Ibanez had it right before, though; The old Roadstar-guitars have them.
She was in an AC/DC cover band and those are the riffs she chose? Riff Raff and the Honey Roll get shafted every time :( See also: Bad Boy Boogie Night Prowler Nervous Shakedown Sink the Pink Gone Shootin Shot Down In Flames High Voltage I can talk about this for hours, I love this shit
Just finished watching your budget interface shootout and this came on right after. The weight loss is so fucking evident here, it's crazy. Big congrats on your progress and journey, Glenn!
@@SpectreSoundStudios I really hope you do a video on it one day (I think you said you may have some time ago). Keto is something that's always interested me, but I've always failed in the willpower department. Would be awesome to see your journey documented.
I like how Glenn toward the end of the video, isn’t saying a word. He just looks like he’s thinking, “You know, I’m just gonna shut up and enjoy this moment.” 🤣😂🤣
bakoos lol, you, sir, could not be more hopelessly wrong. That song rocks! It's the charge of the Light Brigade, for cryin' out loud! Cannons to the right of them! Cannons to thr left of them! Firecrackers going off in Alfalfa's back pocket!
bakoos lol, yeah, there are lots of great Maiden songs, especially from that era, and maybe you could argue a better one or three, but I just loves me some gallopin' "Trooper". But then, I'm a sucker for chantthems.
I agree very strongly with Nita about Yannick Gers. He had already earned his place in Maiden during the 90s with his songwriting on the X-Factor, but ever since the reunion, his songs just got better and better. And he simply is fun to watch on stage.
I felt that there was a subliminal bitchfight going on here & the dude in the middle only picked up on it at the very end & so he was sandwiched inbetween two claws 🦞 of death 💀 & witches !
Agree, very few can play it right. It sounds different and not as good. Same thing with Phils drums. Very few drummers can swing highway to hell correct. Style and feel are hard to duplicate.
That intro should win you an oscar
Hi dad

Glen is obviously the hottest tho

Of course I do! :)
You rock Glenn!))
Because he's worth it.
maybe he's born with it?
Steve Harris style !
Nita’s guitar tone in this video is AMAZING
MetalJesusRocks what???
I believe she just uses a boss gt 1000 processor. At least live that's what she is using. I'm not sure if that's the same in the studio.
and amazing structural
everything about that axe is amazing including its artist.
both guitar tones in this video are utter crap!

Pretty sure maiden is considered heavy metal but idk im not an expert

A nice video with three beautiful women. Haven't watched an smg video in a while but I'm back now.

Not even 2 minutes in and there is already a bass player joke :D
And Jen played bass for Equilibrium :p
Yeah, he's really letting up on them these days.
I’m telling Dawie504
@@Dosemen He will call the police. Because bass player jokes are illegal.
Shortly thereafter, Glenn starts ranking on Jen’s guitar to her face because of the handle on it. Glenn, the largest garden gnome on the planet.
Such a rare moment to actually understand where these METAL Maidens are going with this. And how they relate to their guitars and work. Keep Rocking.
Nita's got spunk, but those jabs at Jen about Evanescence are priceless!!!
Spunk???
Spunk hahahahah.....
Playlist running. Long time watcher, but just subscribed. Liking each video as it plays.

Saw Nita Strauss live, she was a great guitarists. Both are awesome artists with great articulation.
Was great to see Nita back with Alice cooper this year on his uk tour in London.
Omfg I love that intro, he's looking at the camera "help me I'm stuck here but I also feel kinda starstruck"
It's the "Why has God allowed me to get so much attention from these women while stuck with this body and face?" face.
Saw Nita playing with Alice Cooper. AWESOME show!
I was surprised to see a Line 6 logo at the beginning of this video! Lol
He had to get two hot musicians so we wouldn’t click away when seeing that.
"Your singer is a different type of singer than my singer" understatement lol
The Helix simple pitch is the best function in the entire thing. It's cover band magic
YES janick Gers is also a genius, specially in "no prayer for the dying"
The how did I get here part killed me XDDD
For the engagement
Best wishes Julie
I loved this but was a little sad we didn't get to hear the ladies play a song together. It would've been fantastic!
Ain't no one gonna notice how Nita hit them harmonics at 2:51, she hit them harmonics smooth and feisty
Nita is a badass player
Janek is awesome. I used to think I was the only one that loves him. I hate how the fans get on him. I love his playing and I love his stage presence
Loving Glen's lack of shame when it comes to wearing what he wants

Janick can do all that showman stuff because he has one of the two tightest guitar duos backing him up!
