Can I Play With Madness

[cftb1]

It's Tom Araya FROM SLAYER :D

[Mahiarb]

@cftb1 - Oh My God... DUde, the SLAYER fans will kill you for saying that... and will Kill me after that if I accept the compliment... he he he.

But Thank you dude.

Cheers !

[cftb1]

@Mahiarb Np man, thanks for replying, Tom Araya's a great bass player, and I have mates who like Slayer. I sent them the video saying It's Tommy covering some Iron Maiden, and they believed me. Rock on man,

P.S. Check out some of my covers, the sound quality is crap though :)

[bob488]

[Mahiarb]

@bob488 - Sorry, you got the wrong person... Not sure who dick is.

[egofed]

[Mahiarb]

@bob488 - Yeah... true... now read below and understand why... when you find the time...

[Insoniax2]

Know what? This is the song that got me into rock/metal and as a bassist myself, I've never even atempted it!

Good work.. Will try it tomorrow!

(you playing an Ibanez here?)

[Mahiarb]

This is my #1 fav song... we seem to share simillar taste... Yeah it is an Ibanez.

Thank you, I am glad you liked it... you should try this song... it ain't that tough.

Cheers !

[Insoniax2]

You're right.. Easy enough to play.

I've an Ibanez EDC700 Ergodyne. Always had an Ibanez lying about. Love em!

[Mahiarb]

Told you... :)

Have fun with Iron Maiden and your Ibanez, my friend.

[LoveStarOcean]

Youre a heck of a bass and a heck of an Iron Maiden fan you know mostly everything of the song and the meaning behind it. Also UP THE IRONS!!!!

[Mahiarb]

Thank you LoveStarOcean... This is my fav song. I have studied it more than a thesis.. he he he... Thank you for your sweet comment.

Happy New Year Bro...

[XTMRacer13]

yo love the vid, love ur style to iron maiden kicks ass

[Mahiarb]

Thank you man... 1 surprise comming your way.

Up The Irons !

[xmissxbathoryx]

Wow this is nice! I don't play bass but I think you play really well =) [and you look very happy to play that song lol ^^] Up the Irons!

[Mahiarb]

Thank you so much... like i said, this is my all time fav song. Love this.

[Huffer777]

Love this song too. You served it well :) Love the hair as well, what kind of bass is that? (probabally said it a few times but im in a rush so cant look it up)

[Mahiarb]

Thank you so much... It is an awesome song.

I have 3 bass guitars... This one is a Jackson. The other one I use most of the time is an Ibanez BTB 5 string. I also have a customised 5 string Bass.

You would see them in my other videos.

[slurpeeDude14]

i spank noobs like you for a living

[Mahiarb]

Nah, i am not into that sort of thing...

Anyway... queer way of making a living, but as long as it pays the bills.

[Harleyrida]

Outstanding job dude!!!!! You are an inspiration. Where can I get the TAB for this?? (I'm crap at playing by ear!!)

[Mahiarb]

Try OLGA for the Tabs... but it's always better to play by ear... you get better when you do it more often... that way you train your ear to pick up details and differentiate sounds.

[Harleyrida]

Thanks man, I'll keep trying to play by ear... as all the TABs Ive found are wrong! Cheers anyway! I'll get it one day!!

[Mahiarb]

OK... this is what i think you should do...

Play the video... very slow... each bar at a time... then follow what i do on your bass... i can give you the basic notations...

Verse: D | C | G | G

Chorus: B | G | D | A (then riff)

B | G | E | E (then riff)

if you want me to give you the riff notes too... i can... let me know.

[Harleyrida]

Hey thanks alot for that I really appreciate it. I've got the song now (now I just have to get it tight) Thanks again mate...you rock!!!

[Mahiarb]

Always welcome mate... let me knw if i can help in anything...

[tuningelsker]

nice playing

ive just started with bassguitar

[Mahiarb]

Thank you tuningelsker... I wish you lot's of luck on your bass studying. Let me know if you need any help.

[tdobbin]

Really nice adn clean man ! 5-Star

[Mahiarb]

Thank you tdobbin... I am very glad you liked it. Cheers !

[iownyou12234]

Very nice... i just commented on your aces high video but i forgot to say somethin haha

that was amazing! and you look like you're havein way too much fun on all your videos haha

[Mahiarb]

Thank you iownyou12234... Yeah, i do have fun playing bass... especially maiden... More videos coming up soon.

[giorgiacod]

you look like mariottide!

[Mahiarb]

Not sure who mariottide is... so looked up google... and didn't like what i saw...

Anyway, you are entitled to an openion... Thanx for sharing it.

[Headbanger124]

Nice !

[Mahiarb]

Thank you man...

[slurpeeDude14]

sorry my brother wrote that first coment.your awesome man

[Mahiarb]

Thats ok... he's entitled to an openion too... he he he...

Thank you for your compliment... I am glad you liked the track.

[slurpeeDude14]

cut ur hair fag u suck

[Mahiarb]

would that change the way i sound or played?

Anyway, Thank you for sharing your honest feedback :)

[taserthis1984]

where did you get that backing track? Is that a karaoke audio?

[Mahiarb]

No, It's actually a guitar tutorial track.

[gunners55]

you can find stuff like that by searching guitar backing tracks and going on the top link

[Mahiarb]

Yes... use limewire and search for guitar backing tracks.

[gunners55]

I find limewire unrealiable lol

[Mahiarb]

There is a Pro version... but for that you need to pay...

Also try Bear Share... seems good, but does not work on my comp, don't know why...

[Hepler633]

Oh man, that's terrible! The rhythm you are playing is wrong and that bass sounds just awful. Are you even in tune? It sure doesn't sound like it. I can tell you think you're pretty hot stuff but seriously dude. Are you serious?

[Mahiarb]

Thank you Helper633 for your honest feedback.

To answer your questions...

I am in tune, at least according to my Korg Tuner...

Yes, you are quite right with your assumption.

And, Yes, I am serious.

Looking forward to more honest feedback. Thanks again.

[cultivatedmushrooms]

what kind of bass is that? it sounds pretty good.

[Mahiarb]

i am not sure which ones you are reffering to... cause i got a 4 string and two 5 string bass guitars...

The 4 string is a Jackson...

one 5 string is a custom made bass... to my specifications...

The other 5 string is an Ibanez BTB 405

So, not sure which one you're talking about.

[NachoImperivm]

oh! i forgot! im bass player too and i love iron maiden!

[Mahiarb]

Thank you Nacholmperivm... Let me check that part up... I think i need to re-do this song... Your honest feedback is appriciated.

Up The Irons Mate !!!

[NachoImperivm]

you are good playing... but in the "groove" part, and in the solo, the bass line that you play is not the correct one

[AEROSOL2IGNKRUE]

i didnt mean you im sorry LOL

[broodhavoc93]

hes not really playing if u look at his hands

i know this whole song on the guitar and trust me thats not it

[Mahiarb]

Maybe thats because I am playing Bass... But if you still think i am faking it, Please don't let me stop you... I'm open to anything you have to say...

Thank you for your honest feedback.

[DaffydG]

you dingus hes playing the bass and you can tell hes playing because the sound is totally different and louder than on the actuall song.

[AEROSOL2IGNKRUE]

too hear the tru base sound in the base...you dont need to pluck it as you can see he is slightly tapping them trully plucking them can put your fingers into commision if your not ready NACHOIMPERVM

[danlovescake]

proberly the way you paly and everyone has there style, but your left hand keeps changing position what i find help is keeping it in one place thats works for everything i.e both fingering and even slap it can be hard to start with but will eventually help

[Mahiarb]

Hmm... danloves cake, i've been reading your comment for a whole 5 mins... and given it a lot of thought... you do have a very valid point. i am going try it out... may be tough... but i guess it will work... like you said.

Thank you dan...

[PyramidHeadX]

Awesome job again man! Like you this is also my favorite song by Maiden! :] UP THE IRONS!!! \m/

[Mahiarb]

Up The Irons dude \m/

[x2shots2urfacex]

to sum up wats wrong with this entire video u look like a moron when you play and that the song sucks and it isnt hard to play at all.

[PyramidHeadX]

Don't comment on videos if you are going to be a douche bag. This man right here is sick at bass and I bet you can't play at 1/100th of the skill he plays at show shut your cheeks and stop talking out of your ass! IRON MAIDENS GONNA GET YOU NO MATTER HOW FAR!

[Mahiarb]

Thank you PyramidHeadX... for your suport.

[Mahiarb]

Thank you x2shots2urfacex for your honest feedback. I will work on the way I look when playing... more than that, there is noting much i can do about the rest of your feedback... since it's iron maiden's song. And if it ain't tough to play then thats Steve Harris's problem or you are probably a very good bassist.

Cheers !!!

[x2shots2urfacex]

Whats wrong with you?

[Mahiarb]

I don't know... why don't you tell me, since I was not quite sure that anything was wrong...

Do I know you ???

[McBAIN1235]

yeah please do tell I think it was great bass work

[Mahiarb]

Thank you McBain... but since every one is entitled to an openion... he does have the right to express his thoughts. Thanx again for your vote of confidence.

[bertothedrummer]

Awesome i've not seen anyone play a cover that good of this song ! keep it up !

[Mahiarb]

Thank you bretothedrummer. I am really glad you liked it.

Cheers!

[dazeycutr]

awesome

[Mahiarb]

Thank you dazeycutr. I am glad you liked it.

[dazeycutr]

thanks

[prenandez]

dude never stop playng...i know is hard(i play bass and guitar) but keep music alive

[Mahiarb]

Sure prenandez... thank you for the encouragement

[xPearldrummer7x]

yo thats amazing, and can u tab like the first 18 seconds or so, just one time thru plz, i cant figuire it out

[Mahiarb]

Thank you Peardrummer... I am playing the precise bass structure that Mr Harris plays on the actual song... for the intro bit.

The improvisation begins during the chorus part, where I found i could do a lot more than what was originally played. sort of short riffss on every chord thingy. Let me know if you are not able to find the Bass Tabs on the web for this song... I will try to elaborate

[xPearldrummer7x]

actually i cant find good ones, so if u could just tab the beggining, the part that its not ur amazing improvization

and np dude, im just being honest

[Zeion97]

Dude that was incredible bass playing. One day I hope to be playing like that.

Keep rocking dude.

[Mahiarb]

Dude, with good practice you'd be playing better than this in a month... practice the right way, till your fingers bleed.

[diablodrums06]

DUDE! you are so fuckin' great we are just a few who enjoy playin' IRON MAIDEN. AWESOME JOB! I really enjoyed seeing you enjoy. I'm a drummer.

[Mahiarb]

Thank you diablodrums. I understand what you mean by a very few people in the Iron Maiden Army. Well, it is up to us to get more recruits.

Wish you the very best always.

[elihzzz]

bien ah! esta perfecto..tienes muy buenas manos!
