    They sell it at the gigs, if you just want to try it.

    Or are you out to take some home?

    www.ironmaidenbeer.com has a find stockist search.

    Sainsburys, Tescos and that would prob stock it in London and id imagine available in rocker haunts as well as pubs that are of the Robinson brewery. As for Ireland a few of my local off licenses stock it decent brew dont get me wrong and might convert a few who are used to the watery sh1te but a lot better in same category that would tickle me fancy and that are cheaper. I know in Dublin Fibbers stock it but twill cost ya €6 a bottle.

    he is one fine drummer, slightly annoying to listen to him blathering on though in fairness if it wasn't for him flight666 would have been silent from the band !

    That's an understatement, putting the kit together before each show must take at least an hour

    maiden’s and esp. bruce’s dress sense has always been a tad off i’d say...doesn’t matter as long as the music is great...

    You weren't a fan of the spandex they used to wear in the 80s then?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,804 ✭✭✭Wurzelbert

    that was the 80s and spandex went...was thinking more of bruce’s more recent stage outfits, adrian’s michael jackson like gear in the late 80s or nicko’s sweaters...

    A clip from his new live DVD, what a fcukin tool this guy is, he says his voice is getting better and he hits notes Halford can't hit.

    This is just pathetic

    And he's still trying to live off the Iron Maiden name. Making reference to an album he wasn't even on!


  • Registered Users Posts: 27 Rorzz


    Hey guys, I'm new to these forums and am glad to see that there's a Maiden thread on here!

    They're my favorite band by miles, and I've been lucky enough to see them live and meet them quite a few times.


    To jump straight in, that new Di'Anno stuff isn't much of a departure from most of what he's done in the last few years, it's embarrassing to say the least! At least Blaze seems to actually have some respect for Maiden, and the desire to be creative and do his own thing. This, on the other hand..

    Anyone got a favorite B-Side? ;)

    Too many great B-sides to choose from. My favourites are:

    Twilight Zone
    I've Got The Fire
    Rainbow's Gold
    King of Twilight
    Reach Out
    Sheriff of Huddersfield

    Basically all their B-Sides from 1982-1986 were brilliant.


  • Registered Users Posts: 27 Rorzz


    All quality tunes, in particular I love Reach Out. It's a pity that Adrian didn't try out lead vocals a bit more often.

    In addition to that period, Burning Ambition has to get a mention. As far as I know it was the first song that Harris wrote for Maiden, and the production still stands up to this day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    That Di'Anno version of Running Free, 3 minutes of my life wasted, freaking terrible.
