ready for take off ??







well the new iron maiden double live album is finally out....flight 666.....what a treat it is.....fine performances from the boys....i especially like the backing vocals of adrian smith on his self penned classic Wasted Years....nice touch that is ;).....but the ultimate song on this album has got to be the rime of the ancient mariner.....the band make it sound has if it had been written yesterday....nicko mcbrain's drumming on this song is just fantastic ....and the guitar solos are awesome.....and also bruce has never sounded better...what a vocalist he is.....and kudos to mr steve harris for his tight and precise bass playing...keeping the band on time....i would say that this betters live after death by a country mile....the band sound energized like never before...must of been the great crowds they had at these shows that inspired them on....



Can't wait for the new studio album ....coming soon






up the irons
