WhoDarestheMAN gamer it really isn’t. He’s a phenomenal drummer and everything he plays isn’t “fucking easy”. He can do crazy things on the bass drum with only one foot. Wicker man for an example. That song is far from easy to play. And remember everything is recorded with a single pedal.

@WhoDarestheMAN gamer I've been playing for years and I still can't master his techniques. His masterful bass playing and his amazing fills are still such a wonder. You may be able to play a basic heat over an iron maiden song but by no means does that make his drumming "fucking easy" and yes, he ain't the most technical out there, but he doesn't have to be. He needs to be the drummer for the band. He plays well to the song, not lots of solo work. That's the mark of a great drummer, he helps the song sound better. Someone like Scott Lang wouldn't work as well because he's way too technical and wants to shove so much shit into one song, while Nicko plays the music to make the song better.

Your opinion is kind of "popular" and "cool to have" nowadays. I appreciate it, however it is a matter of perspective and taste really. If it fits - it fits. I personally think some Iron Maiden songs would have sounded better with double bass drums - here and there. Again - matter of perspective. "Less is more" - another widely used cliche is not always true - but sometimes. It is a bit subjective, but yeah. Cheers.

Just listen to the opening track from "piece of mind" "where eagles dare" that drum intro is brilliant, and instantly sets the pace for what is known as "IRON MAIDEN"!!!! If you can even play that intro on drums yourself, your a liar if you can say it's not hard to duplicate....

7:40 I can feel this is like Nicko's style on something like John Bonham's Moby Dick solo. So cool how these guys were both born within 5 years of each other but Nicko's been able to carry on some of the great rock drumming ideas.18:21 this is some of the best of Nicko's playing I've ever heard in isolation. 40:45 Where Eagles Dare is so damn gripping. Amazing drumming.

This is partly what endeared Nicko to Iron’s fans right from the start - as well as completing the set for the single most ugly band in metal history at the time. They matured well though, some would say - makes no difference, his workshops and passion for his craft coupled with the discipline in recreating Clive’s drum parts with little or no improvisation showed fans that he respected Clive’s work and tried his best to faithfully stick to the patterns that Clive had obviously immortalised in 99% of his drumming - aside from Hallowed, which did evolve and for the better, he clearly had no desire to be pretentious about the role and is why he’s an absolute legend with a 40 year solid contribution to Maiden as a whole - he’s a remarkably grounded man and I’ve rarely heard a bad word said against him. He’s an incredibly humble man who has been justly rewarded for his dedication by a lifelong cult-like following of the world over. They’re all passionate about what they do and still give the crowds a thoroughly energetic performance considering their ages - Nicko is an old man playing well into and beyond the average retirement age of most of us mere mortals mortals. At 54 there’s no bloody way I’m anywhere near as fit and I’m a veteran of the British Armed Forces - I feel like I’m 72 already, I’m falling to bloody pieces - my knees are shot to buggery, my right eye is constantly looking elsewhere of it’s own accord, or point-blank refusing to work in harmony with its counterpart on the left. I love them all and have done since first hearing them in 1987 when they were already dominating the genre. They’ve been accused of sounding repetitive but I fail to understand how that’s a legitimate criticism considering they’re still able to fill arenas and stadiums across the globe even now. Shit I rant on like a bloody war-time fishwife yapping away all day with the latest in gossip. Long live Nicko! Long live Maiden, and long live their fiercely loyal following - still bringing new young fans into the fold year after year! 😉👍🤘🏴

He doesn't play a double pedal unless it's a very recent addition to his set up. I saw something as recent as his Book of Souls set up and it's a single bass drum and a single bass drum pedal. Plus, if you pay attention to this video at 37:00 to 42:00 and beyond it becomes very evident in his words and playing that he uses a single pedal.
