i saw iron maiden somtime in 1982-3 does that count as cool or messed up ?

by **jkhuri44** » Wed Sep 12, 2007 9:04 pm

"does that count as cool or messed up ?"

Definately counts as cool....it means:

a) you own a REAL crusty maiden shirt.
b)you watched them before it got cool to like old bands again.

:twisted:

to like old bands again???

Back in 1982, Maiden weren't "old". They were only 7 years into it in 1982.

But given the fact that "Physical" by Olivia, Newt & John was the number one song of 1982.... well.....

Maiden were on "Live @ Abbey Rd" this week... great show btw.

I'll bet Rick is doing a complete remaster of the entire ONJ back catalogue for an upcoming box set.

I saw them for the Powerslave tour (around '84 - my memory doesn't go back that well!!)
Dave Murray was an awesome player.. His black modified strat was just how I wanted my guitar (back then).. except he got his from Paul Kossoff :-(
Now I have 4 and a custom strat, so I ain't complaining... :-)

a few of us around here were born those years, i still remember my neighbours kids wearing the shirts when they were in their early teens and i was into lego!

that said, sounds like its gonna be a very cool gig, a friend of mine flew over to the UK to see them not long ago and loved it

VH have been a few yrs back. Not sure about DT..
I saw VH with Gary Cherone (he was disappointing)
Eddie was great..

why is it that so many aussie metal bands have iron maiden as a huge influence in their music but know where near are able to even recognise that metal must have a groove too.

run to the hills rocks and grooves like a MF

by **Kris** » Mon Sep 17, 2007 11:32 pm

That's Gold grooves...... lol..... I was working on the footy show.... wondered who's was the SSL.

by **mark rachelle** » Tue Sep 18, 2007 8:02 pm

I trust your tongue was firmly planted in your cheek as you typed that.

by **Kris** » Wed Sep 19, 2007 8:42 am

oh yes.... of course. I wasn't having a shot, I do a lot of stuff for those guys and always have a good time.

by **Ausrock** » Wed Sep 19, 2007 2:01 pm

Oh please, have a shot.......have a dozen.......................while I tend to like my footy and respect most of those guys as (retired) players, I have little or no time for what they pass off as "entertainment" once they stop talking specifically about the game itself.

by **jkhuri44** » Wed Sep 19, 2007 2:39 pm

LOL! nicely put Ausrock!

by **Roy** » Thu Sep 20, 2007 1:35 pm
