Musical Interlude

How about a double dose of Iron Maiden to brighten your day!?! One of the best rock bands EVER!



"Stranger in a Strange Land" is by far my favorite track from Somewhere in Time.


Seventh Son of a Seventh Son is second only to The Number of the Beast as the best Maiden album. This one was shot at the legendary LA Forum, and that world tour was probably one of the best in terms of visual effects I ever saw.

Ah, to be in high school again. . .

God i loved Maiden and Megadeth in high school. Personally i thought seventh son of a seventh son was the better album, but number of the beast and powerslave came real close. I really loved the theme of seventh son with prophecy and predestination playing very prominent. Over all Maiden albums rocked with their themes...

MAIDEN RULES! "Number of the Beast" or "Piece of Mind" are my two favorites. I've seen them in concert a few times, as recently as last summer and they haven't lost a beat.

Greatest. Band. Ever.

One can never have too much Maiden in their day. Bless you Pat, for upping the Irons on a mass scale for us nerdy band of misfits.

I fully support this. My favourite Maiden is "Killers", though, but "Seventh Son" isn't far behind.

Up the Irons!

Good timing. I was just thinking about Maiden this morning.

My favorite Maiden album is Powerslave, but I love any of their older stuff and even some of their newer work.

Some of Dickinson's stuff is great. Check out The Chemical Wedding.

Maiden has their place but, "the best visuals ever"? Sorry I've got to disagree with that, Pat. If you've never seen The Musical Box doing the Gabriel era Genesis, you need to go. It's incredible. Been a while since this though, thanks for putting it up.
