The greatest band to ever walk the planet... IRON MAIDEN
Dammm right.
Up the irons!
Inspired me to play drums Iron Maiden/Nicko did.. loyal fan since the first song I ever heard, Run to the Hills... I was 6. I never thought I'd ever get to see them in West Australia.. I've now seen them 3 times... I had vip tickets for the Legacy tour but unfortunately they had to cancel because of covid.... I was shattered.
They're more than just a band, they're an absolute phenomenon!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Saw Iron maiden live 27 times. Greatest band on earth
Jesus wow... Unfortunately I couldnt see them for the first time last year in italy because of covid.. btw 27 times is insame!!
saw them 153 times in 30 countries so far ^^
@@metal-adventures-joerg are you serious o_o
@@metal-adventures-joerg Amazing! Maybe guinness record.
@@edugarciaa not even in the top ten among the hardcore Maiden fans....
The fact that I see younger people truly appreciating the music I love and grew up with brings joy and happiness to this old timer metal head!
Bravo les filles!!
Thank you very much! We have been enjoying the beginning of our Maiden journey ;)

Steve and Dave are the only members to appear on every Iron Maiden album.
Was Clive swapped for Nicko in the middle of The Number of the Beast tour or was it after
@@Ecto1944 I think it was after, but I don't know? Clive’s father died in the middle of "the number of the beast tour" and Nicko was brought in to replace him for two weeks. I don't know if he came back to Iron Maiden after that?
"everyone's losing their absolute shit".
Welcome to an iron maiden concert.
They have had the same line up for over 20 years now.
Thats sick..I feel like I was at a concert yesterday when they Rejoined.....Still remember when Bruce mooned the entire Festival, from the top of the main Sceeen Steel arch, high up. He was mad, they (Arranger) said they should only play old stuff, so ofcause they did as they (Iron Maiden) pleased and played what they (Iron Maiden) wanted to, and then he mooned the festival to get his point out.😂🤘🤘
@@frankhermansen243 is that when he ripped up a sign that said "play classics!" ?
@@JD.Knight Dont think there was a sign, but he used a few minutes to explain they dident give a shit about it. It was in Roskilde, denmark
Holy shit I'm old.. I was like "but Blaze Bayley was in place of Bruce Dickinson just yesterday.."
I saw them in 83 I think was the year, piece of mind tour. A long time ago
To hear them is not merely nothing compared than to see them perform live and in person. My first time was in 1984. Absolutley mind blowing.
Scream for me Long Beach... World Slavery tour!! Live after Death is probably the best album, although they're all good through Somewhere in Time (my personal favorite and Powerslave)
Maiden are still touring regularly. Their last studio album came out in 2015 and they’ve been touring their latest tour for a couple of years before having to cancel a load of shows due to Covid.
Metal as a genre began in the late 60s/early 70s but Maiden helped define the sound, particularly British metal, in the early 80s.
Thank you so much for the info! That's incredible that they're still touring 🤘
They released a live album recently... November 2020. Nights of the Dead, Legacy of the Beast: Live in Mexico.
Still awaiting their next studio album....I do, however mainly like their older stuff.. debut to Fear of the Dark.
@@LEANNxARI Worth noting they sold over 40 million albums without any comercial radio play and videos.
They are planning to record new album because Steve Harris is writing new songs.
@@MrTech226 to be honest, at this point... when is he NOT writing new songs? Lol
I am definitely not complaining though... more Maiden!!!!
We all know, that Iron Maiden is legend. Please, try Fear of the Dark, live. Rock in Rio!
YES!!!! Is funny how bad the studio version is and how expectacular is live
Also The Talisman En Vivo. One of the best vocal performances by Mr. Dickinson
Fear of the dark is one of my favorites
What's nice about attending those older bands show, is seeing 18yo and 50+yo in the same crowd...... 53 here
...and all youngster knowing each word of their song...absolutely unique...
51 here and my 21 year old daughter's been to Maiden twice! 6x for myself.
My wife and I noted something similar when we were at a show for what would be the final Rush tour. You had people who had followed the band since the earliest days, alongside teenagers who were young but knew the early stuff as well as the more recent songs , and a mix of ages in-between.
You're pretty much getting 3 generations of fans at shows like this. I do home repair and not too long ago I was in someone's garage. The woman, who had to be in her 70's and by herself, was listening to Iron Maiden. I couldn't believe it. I thought I was being punked.
come out and play!!!
The drummer is Nicko McBrain, and he absolutely loves his job!
He owns a bbq restaurant right by my house. He throws a lot of parking lot parties...awesome guy Nicko
I love that guy
Steve Harris, bassist and founder of Iron Maiden is a fan of history, stories and even poems. He puts his love into songs and music.
Iron Maiden has been around since 1975. Dave Murray is the longest member besides Steve Harris. Bruce Dickinson started in 1982 after their other singer left the band. Other drummer, Clive Burr left the band in 1983, and current drummer, Nicko McBrain stepped in as the drummer. Adrian Smith came in about the same time. Then he left the band. New guy, Janick Gers replaced him. Then Adrian came back to the band. Instead releasing Janick, they kept him. He, Adrian and Dave are known by the fans as "Three Amigos". They share leads on each song.
greatest metal band
Up the irons
Too Right,UP THE IRONS
Maiden have the formula down pat and their fans love it; it's timeless. They have fans from 8 to 80; every race, colour, and creed; from Asia to South America and everywhere in between. They tour regularly and pack stadiums everywhere they go for the plain fact that, after 45 years, they are still good at what they do.
well said, brad! i've been to a lot of maiden shows. the crowd is diverse and everyone gets along. it's always a GREAT show!
@@hoopsmccann639 I've seen them on every Australian Tour since 93 (Damn you Covid cancelling 2020). I remember at the 2008 SBIT tour in Melbourne there was a group of 4 in front of us; Son, Father, Grand Father, Great Grand father - old boy banging away in his knitted cardigan. Gold!
Heavy Metal was born mid-60s when Toni Iommi lost the tips of his fingers in an industrial accident. From then on he had to tune down his guitar so the strings wouldn't hurt his fingers so much, which gave us that deep, doomy sound of Black Sabbath.
1966 i believe
Blue cheer was the first metal band came out in 1966
Yeppers
No way!
I'm mostly impressed by the bassist, the way he switches rhythm and tempo.
Steve Harris is a Beast!
Along w/guitarists Adrian Smith/Dave Murray & founder/bassist Steve Harris are the longest tenured band mates. Drummer Nicko/vocalist Bruce joined 1981/82 & 3d guitarist Janick joined 1989/90
@@harrymiram6621 Steve has been around longer than any of them. He was the one who formed the band in December 1975. Dave has been with him ALMOST since the beginning, bbut Adrian didn't join until the second album. Plus, he was gone between 1989 and 1999, as you probably know.
Hello Ladies.
Thank you for taking the time to react to Maiden. They have a great way of blending history, literature, and myth into the genre.
Alexander the Great - His life and accomplishments
Aces HIgh - The UK's RAF pilots against the German Bombers in London during WWII
The Trooper - Inspired by the Charge of the Light Brigade
and many more.
Appreciate the open mindedness to the music and appreciation. All the best.
Hi Eddie, thanks so much for the info! That's awesome that this is a common theme for them. Definitely looking forward to hearing more 🤘❤
Eddie Barnes! Couldn't have said it better!
@@LEANNxARI check out "Stranger in a Strange Land" from their 1986 album Somewhere In Time. It's loosely based on the Franklin Expedition that had ended up having their ships frozen in the Canadian Northwest Passage in 1845-1846 with many of the crews from HMS Terror and HMS Erebus succumbing to the harsh Artic conditions. You can find the video for it
here on youtube and it showcases the band from that 1986-87 era.
This IS the classic lineup. Bruce is their 2nd singer after Paul Di'Anno. Bruce has been with them 30+ years
Everyone on the stage has been in the band for a minimum of 30+ years.
Oh wow that's awesome! Thanks for the info!
And he pilots their tour plane...
@Chuey's Mama
Bruce isn't the 2nd singer of Iron Maiden. Stop giving false information. Bruce is the 4th singer of Iron Maiden.
@@mmestari Yes, you are technically correct, but its really not worth mentioning 2 guys that never appear on an album. If you want to be really technical, he is (currently) the 6th.
Iron Maiden has an awesome audience! So much energy going from the band to the crowd and the crowd to the band.
Even the cat can't get enough Maiden. One of the best bands ever.
My cats love listening to Iron Maiden.
Yes they are active even to day up The Irons
If by active, you mean kicking ass!! Up the Irons
As much as anyone is!
Replacing Di'Anno with Dickinson was one of the most important events in heavy metal history.
Probably this cat is thinking :
"Well, where there is a mariner, there must be fish !"
Underrated
Lol
Nice kitty . You should listen to hallowed be thy name live in 1982 . It’s a mind blowing performance. This particular concert you just played Bruce sounded strained and tired. The man is a legend
By the way love your Cat
Best coment ever .. good one
Heavy metal was born in 1970 when Black Sabbath released their debut album, titled: Black Sabbath. By the way, early Maiden sound was influenced by the punk scene, so their first couple of studio albums had a more punkish sound to them.
I was a big fan of Paul Dianno. And learning to play Phantom of the Opera on guitar was that breakthrough song to more technical pieces. Underrated stuff.
Robert,Sabbath is Hard Rock
@@thomasmarg4866 Depends on who the singer was.
don't let Steve hear you say they were influenced by punk lol
I thought Mountain introduced the sound now known as heavy metal at Woodstock in 69. They were the first band that was too loud and to "heavy" on the ears. My mom was there and she said it was too much for most of here friends. I could be wrong. For sure though without Sabbath it would not have blossomed into such an amazing thing.
The cat is preparing for the role of Pharaoh's cat in Powerslave song 🤔
Dave Murray and Steve Harris simply doesn't get old. That's very strange... LOL
I saw all 4 shows of Live After Death in Long Beach California in 1985! It was epic!!! UP THE IRONS 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥
That bit you were trying to remember is just after the pilot, his son and the hermit have hauled the mariner into their boat. They think he's dead, but :
I moved my lips ; the pilot shrieked and fell down in a fit.
The holy hermit raised his eyes, and prayed where he did sit.
I took the oars. The pilot's boy, who now doth crazy go,
Laughed loud and long, and all the while his eyes went to and fro.
"Ha, ha," quoth he, "Full plain I see - the Devil knows how to row!"
how to get rockers to read poems? just so you know, metal heads are most likely some of the most intelligent people you will ever meet.
I wasn't implying they weren't. No offense intended 🤘❤
I was going to say exactly the same, but decided to first check in case someone else has done it already. Metal, poetry, horror books, philosophy and history pretty much go hand in hand. Or at least with my circle of metal heads.
@@LEANNxARI no offence taken.✌
@@vilianavasileva8213 Yes, I'm a metalhead and I studied philosophy, history and archaeology. Archaeologists are total fantasy and metal nerds in my experience.
@@Dominian1 yep. Metal head here too. Wanted to study archeology at uni, but it was too expensive in my country. At the end studied classic Greek and Roman art. But I absolutely love classical literature, fantasy and sci fi.
Iron Maiden isn’t just a band but an experience! Started listening to them at 9 or 10 years old, I’m 42 now ❤️❤️
Death and she, life in death, they throw there dice for the crew. She wins the mariner and he belongs too her now. The crowd roared, I saw Maiden last night in Australia 🇦🇺 best live band ever. I've been a fan for 38 years 😊
The version from 1985's LIVE AFTER DEATH is superior in my opinion.
Whats the difference?
I like the slower tempo from this performance. LAD is so fast they killed Revelations, Just MO.
Yes i prefer the 1985 version also..this one is still good don’t get me wrong
My first Maiden gig was 1985. Still going to see them.
They still sell out stadiums.
For sure buddy except obviously for the last year now more or less precise
Maiden is also the best band to ever walk the earth
Yes! Of course they are active and still on the road!
Still active. Still touring. Still making albums. Still the best Metal band in the world. 🤘🤘🤘
My first concert was Iron Maiden in 87. They played this song that night and it was amazing.
Glad I got the chance to see them live towards the end of 2019 before covid, such an awesome experience. Awesome reaction!!
All that energy and they are in their 60s i believe. I wish I had that kind of energy!
Last time I went to see Maiden, they were on stage for almost 3 hours, absolutely amazing concert
Great too see a reaction by someone who’s actually read the poem. Great stuff!
Iron Maiden is the standard I use to measure all heavy metal by. And this song helped me pass a High School English test.
Omg that's awesome! 😁
They are still touring today, my daughter and I saw them live in August 2019 for the Legacy of the Beast tour. The tour was put on hold due to covid, but is starting back up summer 2021, up the irons.
3 Guitarists girls, Dave Murry, been with them since 76, Ade Smith, since 78, had a break 1990 to 1999, and Janick Gerrs, since 91....
Don’t forget Nikko the drummer is I believe 67 years old
Yes buddy he is 68 . 6th (if i am not making mistakes) June of 1952
My favorite band of all time. I’ve seen them over 30 times. Can’t wait to see them again when we can see concerts again
Buying Maiden albums since 1980. Like an Good wine.
Cat was like, "Hey, whacha guys watchin'?" 🐈
Thank you so much for reacting to one of my favourite Iron Maiden songs. What made the reaction so much better was that one of you knew the story behind the song so you were both able to get some context to the performance. Iron Maiden not only have one of the greatest vocalists of all time singing and acting out the lyrics in such a theatrical way, but also have exceptional musicians that create music that add to the story, even enhance it. I’ve always thought that they are the closest thing to genuine modern opera because they are master storytellers. Please check out more. BTW, I enjoyed this so much I’ve just subscribed. Keep up the great work!
With Iron Maiden since 1983, and still going strong. Me soon 51, I was 13 when I discovered them, so nowadays the age difference is not so big anymore, we are all old farts, Iron Maidens and I ! That was epic tour, saw this same show in Ratina, Tampere, Finland.
Check out Fear of the Dark (Rock in Rio), The Trooper or Hallowed be thy name (live '82) for some more Maiden classics!
Still touring today! and hopefully still will be post-covid!
@wv196
The studio versions are better.
@@mmestari Looks like a case of differing opinions here then, no correct answer
@@wv1967 The studio versions are recorded with better equipment, they are edited as intended (or at least as someone intended), the performance is better, and the sound levels are better and they don't have excess noise.
Live versions don't even have all the guitar parts.
And in case of live recordings after Bruce's comeback, he has just lost most of his voice, and sounds like stifled version of himself.
@@mmestari Sure the sound quality is clearer, there are just certain songs where I prefer watching the live version due to the energy, speed, performance and power of live Maiden.
And you're talking Bruce post 2000?! Some of his best live vocal performances are post comeback haha
@@wv1967 " Some of his best live vocal performances are post comeback haha"
No. Can you even hear?
The line-up in the video is:
Dave Murray, guitar (1976-present)
Steve Harris, bass (1975-present)
Adrian Smith, guitar (1980-1990, 1999-present)
Bruce Dickinson, vocals (1981-1993, 1999-present)
Nicko McBrain, drums (1982-present)
Janick Gers, guitar (1990-present)
"Are they still active today?" ."kinda".. ... err.. they're only touring the world, still selling out arenas globally moreso than 99% of other artists. You could say they're "kinda active"
@russwsoper She's still right. They don't release new material even nearly as often as they used to. It's been several years since the last studio album.
In the old sea fairing days the albatross was a good sign if you saw one from the ship it meant following could take you to land. So if you killed it for food or what have you then the you cursed the ship. So what they'd do is the the albatross around your neck to appease the sea gods to not curse the whole ship just the dude who killed it.
steve Harris, lyricist and bass and founder of Iron Maiden got the name from the book by Alexander Dumas "The Man In The Iron Mask". Dumas wrote "Three Musketteers"
Nobody has more fun at an Iron Maiden concert than Iron Maiden.
My wife and I were at this show in NJ in 2008!
That's amazing!!
I just saw them in September, they're still going VERY strong. Best show of my life!!!!
I love seeing people enjoy Iron Maiden music so much!!! 😭😭
That was a pretty good explanation from someone that knows a little about Iron Maiden’s history. I will try to fill in some on the band members. The band formed at the end of 1975 by Steve Harris and they went through a lot of changes before their first album in 1980. *Edit per comment below. The musicians listed below account only for those that have been on an official album release.
Bass - Steve Harris (formed the band)
Guitar 1 (far left) - Dave Murray (not original but joined before their first album)
Guitar 2 (middle white guitar) - Adrian Smith (joined 1980 before 2nd album, left in 1990 and rejoined in 1999)
Guitar 3 (far right) - Janick Gers (joined 1990 after Adrian Smith left stayed after Smith rejoined)
Singer - Bruce Dickinson (second singer, joined in 1982 before the 3rd album, left in 1993 and rejoined in 1999)
Drums - Nicko McBrain (second drummer, joined in 1983 before the 4th album)
This tour in 2008 was a throwback to their classic 1984 tour for Powerslave which was recorded for Live After Death, that’s why they had the Egyptian stage. They change the curtain backdrop artwork for each song, but the stage remains the same.

Dickinson is the 4th singer not 2nd. McBain is the 5th drummer not 2nd . If you area giving "info", get it right.
@@mmestari as I said “there were a lot of changes before their first album in 1980”. For sake of keeping it relatively simple on a RUclips comment there is no need to go into into detail of the numerous people that were never on an album and in some instances only in the band for a few months. 99% of people could care less about the members that were never on an album. But your condescending tone and flexing on the comment is much appreciated by everyone I’m sure.
@@jerseytiger1980 Stop crying because you got rekt. In the future don't talk about bands you know nothing about. Pathetic that someone who starts raging after being corrected whines about "attitude", narcissist much?
@@mmestari yeah, I really got “rekt”. 🙄😭 I’ve only been a fan for 25 years and have seen them in concert 15 times on 11 different tours, every tour since 1999.
@@jerseytiger1980 And still you don't know anything about at all about Iron Maiden. Some "fan" you are.
If you tried to appear any less narcissistic and pathetic human being, a person who can actually learn something and stand being corrected, you totally failed.
This tour is Flight 666. The singer Bruce is a commercial airline pilot and he flew them from place to place
I am 52. Iron Maiden was my first concert ever and that was in 1983. This is the same lineup of members that were there in 1983, with the exception of Janick Gers, who joined in 1990. So it’s the 1993 lineup with one additional guitarist. I also saw them in 1985 on the World Slavery Tour, where they played this song when it was new and on the ‘Powerslave’ album.
The drummer, Nicko McBrain, apparently loves his job, because he always appears to be having a great time. He’s an amazing drummer and he’s 68 years old. Bruce Dickinson, the lead singer, is quite an interesting fellow, being a pilot, (he flies the band around on tour in their jet, is Chairman of the Board, (or was), at Cardiff Airlines, has even done some stunt plane flying, as he owns a replica of the Red Baron’s Triplane. He used to be an Olympic level fencer, and beat throat cancer.
And yes, they’re still at it. They had a studio album come out in 2015. I saw them live three times in 2016, twice in 2017, and twice in 2019. They just recently released a live CD for the 2019 tour, and are working on a new studio album.
They really are an amazing band and they’re one of the best, (if not THE best), live bands out there, (though Alice Cooper is equally amazing live and Night Ranger puts on a fun, high energy, though less theatrical, show, too).
1983 was mine too with Accept opening, got spoiled that night
this is the most well known line up of the band thought they have had other singers and another drummer but for the most part it's been this line up since their 2nd or 3rd album . The singer here left the band for a few years while he followed his career as a commercial pilot for British airways . he still flies for British Airways when he is not touring and when they are touring he flies the Iron Maiden jet that you see at the beginning of this video.
Saw the mighty Iron Maiden live back in 1980 at the Hammersmith Odeon in London...
Glad to let you know that although there were a lot of lineup changes in the first few years of the band, the band you see in this performance is the classic lineup that was finalized in 1982. The lead singer (Bruce Dickinson left the band for several years, and so did the guitarist wearing the bandana (Adrian Smith), but both returned to the band in 1999 and the lineup has been the same since then. Also, the guitarist that likes to dance around (Janick Gers) who had replaced Smith when he left was not kicked out when Smith returned - instead they kept him on so they could play 3 part guitar arrangements and sound even closer to the album sound during live performances.
I was in the audience during the song. It was a outside venue and it was thundering and lightning and good thing the area where I was standing was covered. Behind me a few rows was where people was getting wet. This year Iron Maiden is nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
I loved watching this so much because I have read the entire poem, and it's nice to know someone else did too. :)
Nicko McBrain, the 71 year old drummer just recently released a statement apologising to the fans for not playing as well on this year's Future Past tour for having a bloody stroke in January!
Founded by bassist Steve Harris, who is also Maiden's primary lyricist, guitarists Adrian Smith/Dave Murray are the longest-tenured band members. Drummer Nicko, vocalist Bruce are next in line & 3rd guitarist Janick is most recent addition
At certain points, the cat's tail was acting like a metronome for the song's tempo.
100% yes there still active.there like you say one of the main and popular heavy metal bands of all time.this is a classic track great reaction 👍🏻🤘🏻oh and a bit of trivia bruce the singer is an airline pilot and he flew everyone to each gig on that tour on that plane ✈️ you watched at the start of the video.
Oh wow! Thats so cool, thanks for the info!
@@LEANNxARI Flight 666 is a Documantation of that Tour, very interesting to watch.
Been following Maiden since Killers, and last saw them live in '89...they have been the soundtrack of my life (and I'm sure to many others as well). They have touched so many people, been so successful and influential with very little radio airplay and almost no mainstream media support for the majority of their career. Very few bands like Maiden or Rush can truly say they never sold out, did it their own way, and on their own terms. Whether you like the music or not, you have to admire that.
That's really incredible John, thanks for sharing! We are enjoying learning about these guys 😊
I love Iron Maiden 🤟🏻🤘🏼🤟🏻🤘🏼🤟🏻 greatest metal band ever
Not only do they put on these incredible, bombastic shows, Bruce Dickinson (singer) goes through a ton of costume changes for the songs, the set constantly changes and they keep that energy going for hours. The bassist, Steve Harris and guitarist Dave Murray are the last remaining original members that have been on EVERY RECORDING. Steve is also the primary songwriter and all of their songs are based on literature and mythology. They originally had 2 guitarists and a bassist but added the 3rd guitarist during some personnel shifts in the 90s.
Oh and Bruce, the singer, also flies the bands personal commercial jet during the tours. 🙂
Showing my age just a bit but i got to see them for the World Slavery Tour back on January 6th 1985 at the Richfield Coliseum in Ohio. It is one of the two best concerts i have ever been to (the other being Ozzy Blizzard of Ozz Tour May 11th 1981). I had front row left side of the isle and got to have dinner with them at a friends house because her dad was the regional director for Capitol/EMI records at the time. Bruce and the guys did a few impromptu acoustic songs while they were there and it was mind blowing to hear him sing in person. \m/ Rock on young ladies!!!
Having been lucky enough to see these guys perform mariner a few times over the years it really is something to see live. One of the most awesome tracks maiden have done.
So first off I saw this tour back in May of 2008 in Irvine, CA. AMZING SHOW!!! Now, as a 13 year old back in 1984 I nearly ruined my brand new vinyl record of POWERSLAVE. When i took it home and played what would be the first time hearing this song and heard that section (16:53 of this video) where they galloped 3 times with the drums and then changed it up it just blew my mind. I immediately picked up the needle on the turn player and dropped on the record back to that spot like 10 times in a row. Like I said I nearly ruined the record because the needle would end up bouncing every time I placed it back on the record. I actually went back and bought the cassette tape the very next weekend. LOL Well done ladies and welcome to the Iron Maiden Family and a phrase you will see from Maiden fans, "Up the IRONS!" \m/\m/
Yes they are still active. Saw them in 2015
One of my favorite Iron Maiden songs .
This song is from the Powerslave album. That's probably why they have the Powerslave artwork.
Oh memories, that tour was the first time I saw Iron Maiden live and also was the first time they came to my country...
"I don't know if he said it in there" explains it all.
Depending on where you research and who you ask Black Sabbath was considered the first band to release a heavy metal song. They are considered a hard rock band in this era. For the time when they were formed (1968) they were considered as one of the heaviest bands. Now this is just what has been coined as mainstream origin of metal. I am sure there were many "metal" sounding bands around prior to that time.
Heavy metal officially came into being on 13th February 1970 when Black Sabbath released its self titled debut album.
It's pretty much the original band from at least the '80s, plus a guitarist. This is from the "Somewhere Back in Time" tour. The singer, Bruce Dickinson, actually flew the band on a world tour (He's a Boeing trained pilot) where they played a couple of hits from every album. The 757 they used was called Ed Force One Flight 666. Look for the documentary. It's pretty cool.
I have many album of iron maiden ..and this is my favorite group metal band forever ❤️❤️
Bruce joined for album number three, Nicko for album 4, Adrian left in 1992, Yannick joined. Bruce left in 1993. In 1998, Bruce and Adrian rejoined.
Comparing other bands that are around from the 80s, Iron Maiden didn't have that many line-up changes. I mean they did some but they pretty much managed to keep or at least bring back their important members that consists their legendary line-up.
THIS IS IRON MAIDEN BABIES!!!!!!!
⚡👊🏻⚡
I believe Steve Harris, founding member and Bass player, is 63 this year, and yes they're still going, new album due to be released shortly....
They are the goat and they haven't had many lineup changes over the years they've been actually pretty solid but saying that this is the greatest live band the greatest band The Goat 🤘🤘 and yes up until covid hit they were still touring 🤘🤘
Touring this year starting in March all around the World.
Some interesting things about their lineup:
They have 3 guitarists and a bassist. Lead guitarists from different... let's say eras, of the band had come back and just all exist in the band now. Which is awesome.
While the band is probably most recognized for Dickenson's iconic vocals, the only original member of the band still with them is Steve Harris, the bassist.
Dickenson didn't even join the band until 1981-1993 then had some time away from the band until 1999.
The band is still playing as if not a day has passed.
