@@Trygvar13 Agreed; the problem is that bassists tend to be in the shadow of leads (Blackmore especially comes to mind, and loads of others in HM) but I'm a fan of Geezer, (and of course Jack Bruce and Geddy Lee as multi-talented artists in their own right). I'm not an L42 aficionado, their type of music is usually too 'safe' for me; I much prefer something with more of an edge to it, hence the metal thing.

How it is to play that kind of shows above the age of 60. Maiden have consistently played heavy metal for more than 45yrs and have a HUGE worldwide fanbase! And they always stayed faithful to their music and fans. No compromises! Up the Irons!

So that would mean Maiden is interesting and a great live band forinterview and I don't think he is very used to it but Maiden got it's success by touring and playing live and making albums one after the other, I really don't think they needed the mainstream thing, in a strange way it worked for them.
