i played the drums in a punk band and i know what its like when your soaking wet trying to play a gig covered in ale and your feet are slipping and your sticks are slipping out your hands and your in a blind panic not to fuck the song up haha.
NICKO IS A LEGEND CANT WAIT TILL 27JULY ME AND MY DAUGHTER HAVE OUR MAIDEN TICKETS FOR THE NOTTINGHAM ARENA SHOW.
@miyomix Steve says something like: It was so hot, we would al have done the same if we got the chance too. The strings and part of his guitarelements were extremely hot that he could barely touch it. And Nicko is only saying that he took a swim during the non-drum part of Rime of the Ancient mariner, but he makes it way more longer by all of the sounds he make. :p
Haha, I was there I remember how hot it was. So That's where he disappeared to, I was thinking "bathroom break?" lol. We were all crammed up against the barricade and it was HOT, so much so that they started hosing us down with big hoses, aah that was nice because man the heat was intense, but no way were we gonna let the heat win. I remember looking back at Nikko and thinking "whoah, Nikko must be hurting more than me, he is so sweaty it looks like he just got out of a swimming pool..." LOL!
Nicko is definitly the funniest person in Metal!! Always like to listen to him and his stories! This just another epic piece of him! Nicko you are Metal!!!!
I don`t know which one he`s doing better, drumming or making people happy with those funny comments! It is shame that i cant find any videos from 1985 expect LAD nd Rio which i have seen 20 times :D
It is from the "Live After Death" DVD. It doesn't appear on the Early Days DVD which is the first part of the Iron Maiden History documentary, this one of Nicko appears in the second part (which is on the Live After Death DVD). You should buy it man, it's fucking great.
He's talking about their concert on July 4th 1985 at Cal Expo Amphitheater. I was right outside the arena with my parents at the horse track waiting to see a fireworks show. I remember I could hear the show and was paying more attention to that then my parents.
The funnyest guy on the planet and one of the best drummers... I can watch this video for 6010101010231513525 times and i will still laugh... UP THE IRONS
Haha they could record a song with the sounds he makes...'digity digity da dada dun dada dun sladadadada' haha I love nicko
