Met Nicko once at a music show in Birmingham, he was signing photos & I took my then 7 year old daughter up to meet him. She looked at him & said "Are you really Nicko McBrain".....he smiled, bent down & said very quietly to her "Yes, I am......but don't tell anyone". From that day on I had massive respect for that guy............a true gent & true legend xx
Adoro o jeito "orgânico" de tocar bateria do Nicko. A maioria dos bateras de hoje em dia só pensam em velocidade, viradas brutais, pedal duplo absurdo, etc. O Nicko tem uma pegada muito foda com feelings fantásticos na condução e nas viradas. E pqp o cara já tem quase 70 anos e ainda tá voando porra !
A pegada do cara é extremamente ''limpa'' cada som que ele emite entra em harmonia com a música.... isso é o que mais me agrada no estilo dele. E bom... o carisma do cara é realmente espetacular e a idade é outra coisa que chama atenção também ...!!!!
Yeah. For me he is the best drummer tbh. I defy anyone to find a drummer that complements his band like Nicko does. And he uses more of his drumset than any other drummer I've ever seen.
That wast effing tremendous. I don't care what anybody says. I'm 47, played in many bands back in the day on Bass. He is a fantastic, Rock solid Percussionist that you just know you could work with and click with , Something about Harris and McBrain rhythm section that I rarely ever heard in any other Bands. Both are solid, tight, and yet instinctive, and inspiring, like they share a mental connection. The only single drummer I ever had that with, was my own Brother. Blissful!
@@robphilpott43 You're right ..Clive Burr would kick Nicko's arse any day of the week. Sacking Burr was a huge mistake. Dickenson said as much years ago.
Right, but it goes to show how good he is. He had TEN TIMES that drum kit back in the 80's, but he can kill that tune on a kit 1/10th the arrangement.. Nicko is the best percussionist, hands down.
That's how you're supposed to look playing the drums. Like you're having a fucking Blast. Nicko is going off and having fun. The band sounds pretty damn good too. Of course they sound exceptional on the Drum end... hahaha
That was awesome. Credit to the singer. He sounded a lot like Bruce. Niko killed it on that kit, comfortably, while not playing his own set up. Great lil gig. Looked like fun.
Thanks niko for all the hard work sweat and tears you have put in over the years I am 50 now and grew up with you guys as a kid . You are true guiding light for the kids of the future and future past . Long may you rain !
Acho interessante ele tocar descalço, deve ser pra sentir de verdade os pedais, o Nicko Macbrian é fóda, e o cara já é um " idoso" e está detonando na batera, e tem sua simplicidade e humildade em tocar em vários grupos fora do Iron Maiden, tocando só para se divertir, bacana demais. 🇧🇷🥁👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Toquei bateria por 10 anos em uma banda de Rock no Brazil...já fui em various shows do Iron Maiden, um no Brazil a mais de 25 anos atrás e various aqui nos Estados Unidos....tive o prazer de ver eles de bem perto... Isso que eu chamo de BATERISTA....quem dera no meu tempo tivesse RUclips :) Abraço a todos brazucas!!!! Saudades do Brasil !
Nicko fodásticoooo....não se prende,cada vez q toca uma música é de um jeito diferente...inspiração para muitos,inclusive p mim,com seu jeito único de tocar....animal.
He must have played that song a million times by now but still enjoys playing it! I could watch Nicko all day, he just makes me grin ear to ear when I see him play. Such passion!
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting this… Kind… No ego down to earth GIANT GIANT!!!!! Monster of a drummer … Three times in my musical career… regular dude like you and I👍👍 Absolutely up there with the best… Buddy Rich Jean Krupa John Bonham Neil Peart… and Nicko McBrain… My opinion all tied for number one spot!!!!!!Xdrummer Toronto Canada🇨🇦🇨🇦.. thank you for inspiring millions and millions of drummers and musicians around the world my friend👍❤️
Anyone else get the impression he's ad-libbing a lot of this? Or as well like to say, "keeping it unique and interesting." And on a much smaller kit too. Sick.
O melhor baterista do mundo que usa pedal simples, uma lenda, mesmo sem ser o seu set completo, ele dar um show, para os fãs e um sonho ver isso, viva ao heavy metal tradicional....
You can hardly hear the singer but if you listen carefully...hes a powerhouse
The music is there, that's what matters! \m/
He is awesome, got great voice and a killer vibro
Octane 110
More like an outhouse.
Looks like Joey jordson
One of the best drummers of all time. Complexity and style.
And he has that just nonchalent sense of humor that keeps us rolling laughing almost constantly
Other people: Metalheads are always grumpy and angry
Niko: Hold my huge smile
Holy shit, I gotta see this restaurant!
It's pretty damn good. Friendly, inexpensive, tasty. Been there four times, met Nicko twice.
@iron maiden Closed as in... out of business? Or closed for the day/night?
iron maiden should have phoned ahead 😂
I don't like this restaurant There's only 4 tables😹😹😹😹😹
🤘🏼😎 grande Nicko McBrain
This young man behind the drums sounds promising. He should join a band
One of the few reasons to live in Florida.
That singer crushed it at the end!!!!!
I met Nicko at the four seasons hotel in hi pj's he spun out that I took pics of his kit while I set up the show on the final frontier tour
That was frikking awesome!
Cuando eres un grande hasta los errores se aceptan y sigue como que no fue nada
guauuuu nicko !!!!!!!!
Awesome
世界で最も過小評価されているドラマー。特異なパーカッショナルなドラミングはメタル界では異彩を放つ。大好きです。
Nicko needs more cymbals!! That poor crash to the right of the ride is taking a beating.
Met Nicko once at a music show in Birmingham, he was signing photos & I took my then 7 year old daughter up to meet him.

So cool man. 👍👍
I wanted to take my daughter to meet her idol, Star Child, from Kiss (hahaha) but didn't get the opportunity. ☹️
-#--
Muito bom!
Muito, muito bom!
Nicko is the man and all his success hasn't went to his head. He is one of the greatest drummers out there. God bless you Nicko a true metal god.
I agree
♥️Brainy♥️😜
I wonder if he'd be arsed by those saying he's a metal God being born again as he is.
Lemmy blesses him, every day
Nicko is the worst drummer I've ever seen.. RIP Clive...
Imagine sittin' there having a dinner with your friends and have Nicko McBrain as entertainment. :D
One of the greatest drummers of all time!🥁

Caramba... iria comentar exatamente isso.

Se divertindo muito,um grande espírito,
, @@gaiolawolf , excelente análise, é isso mesmo.....
@@weldermartins2715 bom... eu praticamente só concordei com o post original do Beto FGT só que em outras palavras.... mas valeu
It's cool to see down to earth musicians who hang out with their fans and are true humans.
I have always said that Nikko is the most underrated drummers of all time. He’s easily up there with the likes of Bonham, Peart, etc.
Totally 🤘🏻🇧🇷
100%… PERIOD!!!!!👍👍
Underrateddd???
Who underrated him?!?!
Yeah. For me he is the best drummer tbh. I defy anyone to find a drummer that complements his band like Nicko does. And he uses more of his drumset than any other drummer I've ever seen.
Its lovely how he maintains left foot metronome althroughout the song, such an amazing guy
Sign of a good drummer that is.
Along with his ghost notes which you can really see in this video.
Old school, real drumming.
Wow, that would be my biggest dream. Enjoying a trooper beer while listening to my drummer idol, Mr Nicko Mcbrain 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
My god that man is a clock
This is something so fucking incredible!
A click*
Such economy of movement, all in the wrists, absolute master.
Nicko is badass. I'm watchig this in 2024.
you can hardly hear the singer, but damn, he is amazing.
Yeah
Yep, Nicko recognises it at 8:17
Definitely one of the greatest to ever set behind a drum kit.
8:14
Notice how he surprises himself with the grooviest stuff you've ever heard :)
That is what you call a Drummer
Yes indeed!! In Finland we have Lacu Lahtinen!
Master percussionist I'd say
That wast effing tremendous. I don't care what anybody says. I'm 47, played in many bands back in the day on Bass.

Nicko could make a couple of buckets and trash can lids sound good.
HailRider He sounds like a couple of buckets and a trash can. Totally overrated drummer.
@@robphilpott43 You're right ..Clive Burr would kick Nicko's arse any day of the week. Sacking Burr was a huge mistake. Dickenson said as much years ago.
Jason Murphy 100 percent agree, mate.
He started with his mom's pots and pans. It probably did sound good!
@@robphilpott43 You're obviously a professional 🤔
Nicko is a monster on the drums.
ppffff PLS do not exaggerate. He s just a decent drummer but not fantastic. Always the same fills on high toms and that's it. Just my opinion.
I think he's one of those drummers that's just all over the place. Kind of like Frankie Banali. A Neil Peart type but not nearly as technical.
ffs wise up lads would like to see you play with the same carisma
he is an octapus on drumming.......
@@drevdh7645 i dont care.he is humble man.up the iron \m/
MONSTRO !!!!!! Rock in Rio 2019....🙏🙏🙏
Talvez seja a última oportunidade de ver o Iron Maiden ao vivo no Brasil. Não dá pra perder.
Whoever disliked this should have their accounts taken away! the mans 60 ffs and more life than some 20 yolds
Rob Crawford ah ya know. It’s trolls. Nicko is amazing.
Amazing!!
Rob Crawford fucking true....
I think it was Paul dianno lol he hates Nicko
Holy shit, this vocalist sounds almost like Bruce in his best (at least at fragments that i was able to hear)
Well,to us maiden fans he's definitely not underrated in the slightest
nicko be like... this set need more toms hahaha good video
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Far too less toms and cymbals also :D :D :D
Right, but it goes to show how good he is.
He had TEN TIMES that drum kit back in the 80's, but he can kill that tune on a kit 1/10th the arrangement.. Nicko is the best percussionist, hands down.
I hate you, I peed a little when I read this. 😂😂😂 LMFAO absolutely true!
That stage is tiny. The kit looks like a miniature or a travel kit
singer is fucking great, too 🤘
That's how you're supposed to look playing the drums. Like you're having a fucking Blast. Nicko is going off and having fun. The band sounds pretty damn good too. Of course they sound exceptional on the Drum end... hahaha
Niko makes eight-piece sound like a 24- piece...
That was awesome. Credit to the singer. He sounded a lot like Bruce. Niko killed it on that kit, comfortably, while not playing his own set up. Great lil gig. Looked like fun.
nicko is heavy metal god of drumms
Toca muito , e tem gente que não toca e põe a culpa na bateria 😂. .olha ai o sonzaço que o cara tira com essa batera simples 👍
toca muito um dos maiores de todos os tempos , humildaço toca no meio de gente comum baita batera .
Dolph Lundgren's brother?
Nah but he may have been in Die Hard, ha
😂😂😂
A mixture of Dolph Lundgren and Iggy Pop
Man....what a treat that would have been!!! I couldn't sit still smiling and watching!! 🤟😎🤘
Thanks niko for all the hard work sweat and tears you have put in over the years I am 50 now and grew up with you guys as a kid . You are true guiding light for the kids of the future and future past . Long may you rain !
Amazing performance from everyone in the band, great singer. It must be really something being able to play with such a legend.
The dude on drums sound almost like the guy from Iron Maiden
He looks a bit like Nico but his name is Brian.
Acho interessante ele tocar descalço, deve ser pra sentir de verdade os pedais, o Nicko Macbrian é fóda, e o cara já é um " idoso" e está detonando na batera, e tem sua simplicidade e humildade em tocar em vários grupos fora do Iron Maiden, tocando só para se divertir, bacana demais. 🇧🇷🥁👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Muito talento pra um ser humano só....imagina a dificuldade pra montar essa musica.....fantástico o iron maiden . .
Absolutely Flawless Nicko. Nicko and Neil Peart best drummers ever.
Man, watching him play drums is awesome! His bass drum play is unbelievable! Even double bass players can't do what he can do!
I can listen to Nicko all day fluid drummmer and awesome lad
Toquei bateria por 10 anos em uma banda de Rock no Brazil...já fui em various shows do
Iron Maiden, um no Brazil a mais de 25 anos atrás e various aqui nos Estados Unidos....tive o prazer de ver eles de bem perto...
Isso que eu chamo de BATERISTA....quem dera no meu tempo tivesse RUclips :)
Abraço a todos brazucas!!!!
Saudades do Brasil !
He is such a cool guy. What he does for the youth is awesome. Cant name any other musician who is so giving of their time.
Let's face it: it's not easy to be the singer in a band with Nicko in the drums. Power, sync, rhythm, he's got everything!
Four piece kit and he still crushes it! Improvises fills just like the jazz greats!
Nicko makes it look so easy. Like no big deal. He is a great drummer. Cool dude as well.
Nicko plays (with no excuses), we plays amazingly well, we plays within time and he SMILES. All what a musician / drummer should be. Thank you Nicko
Nicko e seu jeito inconfundível de tocar bateria.
monstro
Nicko toca pra caralho! Fodasso o som que tira em uma bateria totalmente simples ...
It’s absolutely awkward to see Nicko behind such a small kit. 🤣
SCREAM For Me Rib JOINT !!!
Que placer ver tocar a Nico. Bonzo y Nicko mis ídolos.....los dos made in england....salu2
Seen Maiden 3 times and his playing always blows me away. Love it!
One of the most underrated drummers out there. He is amazing
Nicko's starter kit? 😂
Mestro de maestros......impresionante......Idolo........
Nicko fodásticoooo....não se prende,cada vez q toca uma música é de um jeito diferente...inspiração para muitos,inclusive p mim,com seu jeito único de tocar....animal.
He must have played that song a million times by now but still enjoys playing it! I could watch Nicko all day, he just makes me grin ear to ear when I see him play. Such passion!
Nicko continua com seu estilo original de tocar , grande baterista , tanto em altura como em musicalidade
Vocals sound killer!!!!!
One of my most favorite Iron Maiden songs.
He did an awesome job with the size of kit he was using!
I love how the singer is trying to get the crowd to clap at the beginning.
yet nobody Falls for it.
FAIL
half of them dont know who is Iron Maiden lol
I love that your just a dumb RUclipsr while he is out there doing something with his life.
Mr. Roman You think? It Rock and Roll Ribs, and its owned by Nicko McBrain. You really think people go there without knowing who he is?
Mr. Roman Also you can clearly hear them singing along at parts.
Because he's clapping on the upbeat ... crowds always go for the 1 and the 3... slack jawed troglodytes.
One of the nicest drummers.
Viva nicko um verdadeiro monstro do mundo do heavy metal 😎😎😎
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting this… Kind… No ego down to earth GIANT GIANT!!!!! Monster of a drummer … Three times in my musical career… regular dude like you and I👍👍
Absolutely up there with the best… Buddy Rich Jean Krupa John Bonham Neil Peart… and Nicko McBrain… My opinion all tied for number one spot!!!!!!Xdrummer Toronto Canada🇨🇦🇨🇦.. thank you for inspiring millions and millions of drummers and musicians around the world my friend👍❤️
unos de los más grandes bateristas del heavy metal de la historia , cómo hizo demostracion de magia con una batería mediana en este video
Anyone else get the impression he's ad-libbing a lot of this? Or as well like to say, "keeping it unique and interesting." And on a much smaller kit too. Sick.
To adlib would be to not know it.
Nicko re-wrote Clive Burr's original parts to suit his own style so jamming the song isn't alien to him.
Tequila patrón jeje hello from Guadalajara -the land of tequila- to all iron maiden fans!
Nicko is a CLOCK !!!!
Sign of a great drummer...effortless!
The singer is a powerhouse as well, he is Colombian and if I am not wrong his name is Pablo
F T correct!
Know his Gram or whatever?
El Juancho ghostofchange on Instagram
Nicko is such a good sport for sitting in on the drums like this.
Pablo(singer) is amazing too. 🇨🇴
Master the drums
Wow. Thanks for sharing. Thanks to Utube I can watch this performances so close.Damn! . Even with this drum set Nicko sounds enormously fantastic.
Awesome drummer! Truly a great guy. God bless him!
que sonzeira desses pratos. o batera então nem se fala.
Ele se diverte, seja com bandas novas ou com os amigos do filho, toca sem frescura.
5:30 he misses the cymbal.
segundo video que eu vejo do niko tocando com outras pessoas parabéns pela simplicidade e humildade monstro da bateria
É banda dele se não me engano os antigos entregantes
Nicko is a MASTER GOD BLESS HIM
O melhor baterista do mundo que usa pedal simples, uma lenda, mesmo sem ser o seu set completo, ele dar um show, para os fãs e um sonho ver isso, viva ao heavy metal tradicional....
I would love to go to that restaurant. Meet that drummer .he pretty good . 😉 eat listen to iron maiden cool sounds like heaven . Up the Irons !!
Nicko,
You alright with me. You're one of my favorite metal drummers!!!
Always smiling. The best single bass drummer out there.
Can you share an amp? It’s alright it’ll go away. Dude your playing with Nicko Mcbrain, fix the problem man!
Simplesmente o melhor do mundo pra mim.
