It's not just because he's a badass drummer from one of my favorite bands growing up, but Nicko just seems like a truly decent and fun guy to be around.
yes overplying is a nightmare, the less notes the better, double base is shit unless u can use inteligently like Ian Mosley from Marillion anothe great drummer
What an absolute god.. He's so happy and so into just playing the drums. Dosen't matter how big the kit is, what he's missing, he makes it fucking work, and he is just so full of passion. We Maiden fans are so fucking lucky to have him behind the skins. God Bless you, Nicko.
I may have lots of bias here, because Maiden has been my favorite band for 3 decades, but Nicko is absolutely one of the best drummers in music period.
Quién putas pone dislike al maestro de maestros, es un grande y a pesar que está acostumbrado a tener una amplia batería sabe acomodarse con lo que hay de momento y no pierde en nada su esencia!
i love niko s drumming......up the irons......i grow up with iron maiden......and i will die with irons......up iron maiden from italy......i still listen in 2021........wow!!!!
My mom is 80 years old and after hearing IRON MAIDEN for so long she now goes to town on the drums I actually didn't know she had it in her I'm one proud daughter
yr got ta luv Mr Nick X,Yr lucky he lives yr way,,But he has done a couple gigs our way,Olly Twist,now closed,Colchester Essex,Bell inn in thourpe Essex,England,,Im a drummer,He was fun to meet,Good on yr Nick,No way he would move back to North London,,And BIG respect to the rest of the band,was TOPS ALL ROUND,,,
it was amaaaazing! Did you get to meet him? He was so nice...dunno how he handles being swarmed by people like that and is actually nice and chirpy with everyone. What a great guy!
@@katdbass Yes! I met him, but I could talk to him a very little... because another fan approached. Well, he was a little distant when I approached, there weren't others people. Anyway, he was gentile. Nice experience!
Que técnica de Nicko, no hay video en el que no me deje boquiabierto. Cada video usa técnicas increíbles y es un baterista impredecible y que sale siempre de lo monótono. Sin duda alguna de los más grandes barristas del heavy metal .¡
Incredible Drumming :) What is the first Song with Nicko on Drums? Anybody know the exact cymbal setup from this show? The Ride Cymbals sounds very good.
5:36 Observando loa detalles y esas especies de relleno que pone, a parte de los Fills, y el mismo swing que lleva, son inbreibles los cortes que hace, el hace todo lo correcto hacia en destiempo, un verdadero Genio de la bateria, buen guarro, punzante y equilibrado. Asombroso batero.

You mean the bands who play with him? They are just a cluster of local musicians/bands in the loop who gather every year for this. The event itself is open to the public and is done in the parking lot of his restaurant, Rock n Roll Ribs, to celebrate their anniversary every year. Pretty amazing!
You guys like Iron Maiden right? I've got a couple of covers. Up the Irons! 🔥🎸bit.ly/2L7rYaw
Fine efforts,!
oh yea nico,is bomb
Nice a coverband with the REAL drummer. Up the Irons Dudes ..and dudettes. 🤘🏻🤪🤘🏻
I would honestly faint if I saw the legend himself play drums live. Nicko is the greatest drummers on earth, no question
great guy!
I could watch Nicko play for hours. What a drumming legend.
He is so calm and effortless. Other metal drummers look like they’re struggling. It almost like he is out for a walk with his dog.
All in the wrist
It's not just because he's a badass drummer from one of my favorite bands growing up, but Nicko just seems like a truly decent and fun guy to be around.
cajun812 yes!!!!!
I met him at several Drummer Workshops in the 90's, he is an awesome Guy! It was a Pleasure, talk to him...
I can totally agree. He is amazing and so down to earth to talk to.
Intelligent drumming, great time, solid control, musical fills, and playing the song without overplaying. Who could ask more of a drummer?😀👍
and down to earth! the guy is amazing!
Exactly this! Top comment!
yes overplying is a nightmare, the less notes the better, double base is shit unless u can use inteligently like Ian Mosley from Marillion anothe great drummer
Nicko didn’t put any less into it than when Maiden is doing a stadium. Because he’s an awesome bastard.
Nearly 70 years old & still one of the best EVER!
james burns 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
66
65 here actually, born 1952.
But yes watching this in 2020, he's 68 years old.

Give him only one drum - he will rock it !
Nicko, seems like a genuine nice guy that loves everything about music and playing.
His control is scary good. That level of playing can only come from years and years of playing. Extremely tasteful playing...
Nicko never plays the same kind, every single video that I saw before never. But it always good to see.
I may have lots of bias here, because Maiden has been my favorite band for 3 decades, but Nicko is absolutely one of the best drummers in music period.
I agree!
Of course
Oh you're not biased, you are absolutely 💯 correct.
I love this guy. Still great inspiration after all these years.
:) he's awesome
Nicko is a fuckin amazing drummer...bring his best no matter what environment he is in ... love Nicko !
I love watching these videos of Nicko playing live .. my fav Drummer ... !!
Quién putas pone dislike al maestro de maestros, es un grande y a pesar que está acostumbrado a tener una amplia batería sabe acomodarse con lo que hay de momento y no pierde en nada su esencia!
ah que importan los likes y dislikes... ;) lo importante es que le guste a uno y ya
I can't imagine how happy you were at this moment. Must be amazing to see this guy playing so close to you
it was incredible! I'm so lucky I got to sit like right next him!
What an exzellent Drummer - we love Nicko✌️
he's very precise, great chops and always right in the pocket, most upsetting, he makes it look so easy....LOL
my favourite rock drummer
he just really loves what he does...and it's contagious!
One of my favorites! 🙌🏻 best drummer ever
Nicko is a legend.
one of a kind!
i love niko s drumming......up the irons......i grow up with iron maiden......and i will die with irons......up iron maiden from italy......i still listen in 2021........wow!!!!
Iron Maiden......the best band in the world...... Great Niko...!! Up the Irons from Italy.
Up the Irons!
Nicko one of the best rock drummers out there ,u rock dude .
Nicko is the greatest drummer ever !! No doubt. Debate over !!
My mom is 80 years old and after hearing IRON MAIDEN for so long she now goes to town on the drums I actually didn't know she had it in her I'm one proud daughter
WOW! I love that!

indeed!
I was there!!! The happiest day of my life!!!

Love this guy...such a unique style
very precise, lots of interesting stuff without overdoing it ,
always right in the groove. IMO
yes I agree
@@toddlavigne6441 he plays to serve the music! I love that about him
Amazing he's always played a single bass.
Nicky makes playin so effortless. In my opinion he os the GOAT for drummer. That much energy night night as Maiden show. He is remarkable ❤
No words! Great, the one, Nicko!
What does Nicko do when not touring, recording and being generally in Maiden? Oh yeah plays iron maiden with friends and strangers!! Up the irons!
He's the man!
Wow Nicko totally got into jamming with guys, just like his concert performances, pretty good indication these guys do awesome Maiden covers 👏👏👏
Nicko um ET . Não existe um baterista melhor que ele,e ainda mais com essa simpatia
I agree! He's one of the best!
Rock solid chops with signature style, just the best in the business. That's why Maiden chose him. He's actually overqualified for the job.
That kit sounds bloody amazing
:)
Mate's a legend. Plays drums incredibly, plus needs a good ol' milkshake next to him and needs to wear his pyjamas. Nicko kills it.
How can’t not love watching play! He has so much fun!
The best heavy metal drummer.
Que técnica de Nicko, no hay video en el que no me deje boquiabierto.
Cada video usa técnicas increíbles y es un baterista impredecible y que sale siempre de lo monótono.
Sin duda alguna de los más grandes barristas del heavy metal .¡
totalmente! Y toca con una facilidad y tranquilidad!
Yo creo que es bueno hasta con unas latas de detergente, es increible.
@@katdbass Échale un vistazo a este otro, Jonathan Moffett, es el Batería de Michael Jackson, es un metrónomo ya lo veras.
that right and left foot my brothers, Epic!....same with that master ride!!
YES!
If he’s got him s 184 piece kit or a 24 piece kit, he still rocks it !!
YES
Imagine singing/playing in a cover band with the legend himself.
one could only wish!
The god i believe in is called "Nicko McBrain" .
thanks for sharing Catalina!
my pleasure!
Maiden in Texas1month 4 days! Cant hardly wait! Up those Irons !
lucky you!
🔥👿Nicko is King🥁🌟🌟🌟
Grande, gigante Nicko...
Toca pra karalho...🤘🤘👏👏👏👏👏
Excellent drummer, indeed in the lead.
yes!
Пишу по русски.
Макбрайн ,лучший ударник, лучшее чувство такта,
Ему, много лет, но он играет,
Как мальчишка. Уважаем !
А, Уважение, только у Русских.
Nicko one of the best
thanks for sharing this
Hats off to the singer! Tough covering Bruce.
this band does a SPLENDID job. they are pros!
Fantastic view , must have been great to meet him !!
It was definitely awesome!

every "musicians" that think they are great should watch this and cry and say " why I am so egomaniac???"

i love that paiste 2002 ride
Nicko drums hero..
Nicko doesn’t disappoint. How about a blues maiden album?
legend-
Does anyone know which ride cymbal is that? Seems to be a 2002 series from paiste...but which one exactly? Can't see..
Hey qué curioso, alguna vez te conocí en Medellín, espero que te esté yendo muy bien en tus proyectos
Hola Daniel! Tengo mala memoria! Pero muy probable! Si todo va muy bien, mucho trabajo y mucha música. Te cuidas
💝
Those lucky Floridians. 🍀
I know, right???? ;)
Executa fácil d+++ naturalmente PERFEITO
sim!
Nicko é o John Bonhan da nossa geração! Abusa das tercinas e tem muita técnica!
Nicko is the best of the best!..Foever!!!
0:59 got to admit that was a cool fill
Sou fan desse cara muita teknica
Much better than Lars Ulrich.
Tomáš Slivka two different players, two different people and totally different bands 🤷♀️
Tomas slivka...so true bro...
@@katdbass trueeee
@@katdbass still better
Love Metallica and Lars fits inside Metallica, but Lars isn’t a very technical drummer and he’s kinda of boring.

26 deaf people have disliked this video .... sacrilege!
it is what it is! don't understand the hate either
O pé esquerdo não para nunca! Jajaja
He's a beast!
great video!! Quick one, why is he using the sticks the other way around?
No clue.
Going see them the 14th in l a Los angels ca it's going to be epic there a very tight band
MAESTRO
I was there, it was a good day
He makes it seem like nothing.. He chokes his ride in the beginning - so fast that moost of yoou probably didnt even notice it.. Leaps better than Ulrich for sure - but this is also a different genre. He also his supernatural foot technique. And damn fast hands.. He is insane
very talented, almost underrated!
Oh yeah that ride choke at 3:00 ...great find
4.42-4.45'' awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who do you have to know to get invited to all those parties where Nico is hanging out and juping On the skins after a couple of proper pints?
You mean the bands who play with him? They are just a cluster of local musicians/bands in the loop who gather every year for this. The event itself is open to the public and is done in the parking lot of his restaurant, Rock n Roll Ribs, to celebrate their anniversary every year. Pretty amazing!
Love the basist look :) Is that Nicko?!!!!
it is
Mestre 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hallowed be his name
Нико всегда все тарелки использует и барабаны!!!
