  • Chuck Norris is shit.

  • Chuck Norris plays the bass with 6 fingers

  • Steve's and Nicko's voices remind me the Brithish airmen's (from 'Allo 'Allo) one. Do you feel the same? No offence of course :)

  • Nicko is the worlds most funny man. I love him!

  • not bad but Chuck Norris do this with his tongue ...

  • of course he plays with two fingers... coz if he played with three a dark hole would probably open and swallow the universe

  • @darkangelzephyron LOL! I've always known he plays using two fingers, and you may be right...

  • @Marshallsatten CERN aint got nuttin on steve!! lol

  • @darkangelzephyron LOL! And I was watching a show on CERN just last night...

  • Britsh people love to say You know as american people love to say f***

  • hahaaha fuckin Niko....

  • words of wisdom

  • Who cares, Marcel Jacob plays with a pick and both of them rock!! little kid's stuff.

  • @Oswah Yeah you're right, they rock that's the important! But don't say it's kid's stuff. We're talking about different techniques. It's a nice discussion ;)

  • i would kill for bass lessons from him

  • BUT - they are the two fingers of MURDERED CHILDREN!!!! (Part of the sound.)

    Remarkable band in every respect. They seem like one of the most professional, no-nonsense acts and seriously, from the 1970's?? It really is like a Led Zeppelin you can still go see play live.

  • @TubeFreakJonas It's been broken.

  • whats with niko's nose anyone know?

  • @bryceman25 he was born that way.

  • he plays with two fingers, you know...

    ;-D

  • So he's addmiting his bad technique... He's got tension in his two

  • @KISSANIMALIZED there is no good or bad technique. there is only what makes the individual comfortable

  • Time Warp did some Metallica, now I'd love to see Maiden. Seeing Aces high in slow-motion!!! :D

  • Lookin old now.

  • NICE PROLOGUE BRUCE.....

  • fake... you can see its a joanet

  • every bass must be played with 2 fingers nobody plays like that just THE FUCKIN CREATOR OF IRON MAIDEN!!

  • @MrFrancox44 Billy Sheehan plays with three fingers. I'm just saying. Some bass players play with four or five.

  • @Valagnar BUT BUT BUT!?

    who has five fingers? :P

  • @Thebudgeismetal I have five fingers per hand, four fingers and a thumb.

  • Best bassist in the world !!!!

  • Does anyone actually know how if Steve plays with the bottom of his fingers or with his fingernails ?

  • @OhzSwix I don't think that he would still have nails if he played that fast with them xD

  • @johnthegreek178 All right thanks a lot !!

  • @guitarbridgecleaner it's a British saying meaning fucking it iup

  • @guitarbridgecleaner It's a British expression, if that's what you're confused about. meaning to ruin something.

  • I always play my bass with 2 fingers, even in fast metal songs...I always thought that was normal o_O I guess not? XD

  • Now I get It... Steve Harris owns a Jaguar !!!! :O

  • The Greatest metal band ever... PERIOD.

  • most people got it wrong.. steve doesnt use , the three finger technique..some goofball who thought he knew what he was talking about had people fooled . hey ,its a good and easier technique for galluping, although definetly not the steve harris technique.

  • Nicko plays with one foot!

  • Ok, i know everyone here is a Steve Harris' fan... but i think his overrated.

    Give me the same equip that he uses and i'll play even better.

    Thumb it down as much as you want, but that's my opinion.

  • @Fredrockroll Steve harris's fan don't say he's the best bass player because he plays better than everyone on earth. But because he plays very well, and, themost important, because he can compose masterpieces. I don't know if you can do that.

  • @MrStayCoul i wasn't talkin about his musicality, i was talking about his hability in playing bass. He does writes masterpieces and i don't.

    He is a great musician, not a great bass player.

  • @Fredrockroll I don't totally agree with you. I don't think he's particulary excellent, but I don't think he's as bad as you say

  • SKIP INTRO @1:54

  • best combo in the universes

  • cause ... "you knowwwwwwwwwww"

  • Steve Harris, the never aging man

  • he looks like his hand isnt moving when he plays! hes made a pact with the hoof footed one

  • Steve would be an amazing paintball player. lol.

  • but this one goes to eleven

  • Comment removed

  • Bruce have said around 13 'youknowses'!! That's epic for just one minute of talking ..LOL

  • @ranXerox09 i didnt even notice that lmao

  • such typical British blokes!

  • up the irons from PUTA QUE PARIU!1!

  • "Nicko" McBrain has the voice just like Dave Mustaine

  • @NaachusS45 southern mustaine lol

    

  • WHAT!? someone finnaly realizes drums are one of the hardest instruments to play continuiously

  • you know?? --fuck,i dont wanna know bruce!!

  • 33 years, I'm a fan, and not to be bias, but who else in their 50's could take on tours as they do, with the energy they put into each show. Is that silence........well yes, it would be, as fact is fact.What you've got here is gripey spotty little teenagers trying to talk about something they know fuck all about...Life...for one, and anyone more intelligent than them.The members of Maiden are not just musicians.Do your homework and you'll realise that they are all very intelligent people.

  • @TheClairvoyant777 ozzy is in his 60s and hes still touring

  • Everybody wants to have a pop at Iron Maiden.They are from London, thats the accent, whats the problem with that.Jesus wept, they seem to nothing right by some people.They travel around the world, to places none of the other, so called Rock stars would do.why, because they appreciate that the fans put them where they are.Plus, a lot of hard work.if its not that reality, x-factor money grabbing whippet, its somebody else agrieved at what Maiden do, and do well!!!!!

  • lol they should rename to Iron ''You know'' Maiden

  • Yes, we know...

  • @jermalwashington187 he may be the leader,but you are the creator.I would feel ashamed of myself if I was you...

  • 1:58 a lot of people think its three or four fingers because *lightning fast finger motion* you know xD

  • You Know (bruce) = entende (pelé)

  • ''You don't get into bands becouse of girls !''

    Agreed ! :)

  • Unless it's a rental, does the fact that they just showed Steve Harris' number plate escape everyone?

  • If I didn't know who Steve Harris was, this title would really freak me out.

  • These guys are almost entirely in their 50's, and they're way cooler than half the young "gangstas" you get on the music scene. Maiden rock!!!

  • Iron Maiden members fucking loves to say "you know"

    Write a song named "You Know" or something.

    XD!

  • Bruce dickinon fucking loves to say "you know"

  • this is as english as rock music gets

  • 24 people are Justin Bieber & Rebeca Black fans.

  • Me mints getting away xD 1.36

  • 24 people are haters

  • I started out with two fingers because that's what steve and most bassists do but my teacher said it may pay to go for three because you use less effort playing the same notes in the same time and if your good you can get faster still, the coordinations a pain though

  • 24 people doesn't know

  • Is Dickinson drunk to say YOU KNOW like this...

    looooooool

    he is funny & YOU KNOW Iron maiden's fans like him

  • And yeah, Steve plays some songs with a pick.

  • @MaxPayneIzRudog like what??

  • You Know You Know :D lol :D I am trying to play with 3 fingers my whole life, and like 1 month ago I was watching Steve's videos (the Rio ones) when I discovered that he plays with 2 fingers..

  • im so glad i found that out before i switched to 3

  • Where can I see the rest of this ? you know ?

  • (you know) if (you know) you're (you know) proud (you know) of (you know) what (you know) do (you know) (you know) (you know) (you know) that's (you know) ... (you know) ...(you know)

    This vid has last 2 min. (to midnight) more than it should because of all of those "you know" -.-"

    He prefer sayin' "you know" rather than take a breath after some words...what a man! ....you know!

  • @punkmetalrock77 aaaaahaha rofling :D you know..

  • i wanna be atleast the bands' truck driver or cook or the laundry boy. maybe the towel boy during shows

  • Nicko Rules!

    [It's a steering wheel]

  • Since when Qui-Gon Jinn plays in Iron Maiden? lol xD

  • de donde es este video ????

  • NO SE OLVIDEN DE FRANK BELLO DE ANTHRAX

  • HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE HARRIS!!!!!

  • Steve Harris is my god.

  • Son momias :O

  • What Nicko is saying at 1:38?

  • THE RIDDLE HAS BEEN SOLVED. i've been trying to figure out for years by watching him but its too fast.

  • @cliffburton333 I tried to figure it out for a long long time, and when I got it by watching, listening and reproducing the differences between 2 and 3 fingers sound, it took me even more time to convince people about the fact that harris plays with 2... :D

    Until I found this video. So, I'm happy it's been useful.

    UP THE IRONS!! |,,|. (=_=) ,|,,|

  • @Fran666 He doens't always play with two: sometimes in some arpeggios he uses three fingers (e.g. Revelations' intro part) to give an effect that with two wouldn't be the same.

  • Steve Harris could kick Chuck Norris' ass with those two fingers!

  • 20 times- you know

  • You just blew my mind...the whole reason I started playing with 3 was because I thought he did...I'm a little stunned right now.

  • @JLittleBass

    >.< Ouch! Well, it must be a little shocking but it's not more than a curiosity... i mean no matter if you started playing with 2 or 3... you started playing inspired by him. And that's good enough to feel proud and keep on your job. Good luck!

  • @JLittleBass it's not like playing with 3 fingers is a bad thing...

  • @JLittleBass its also all the more reason to admire this man because playing that shit with 3 fingers is hard enough. with 2 its insane.

  • @JLittleBass Me too! Oh well...

  • @JLittleBass as did i lol

  • @JLittleBass Les Claypool plays with 3, so just start claiming that ;) hen again hes mostly known for his Fleming and slap-pop

  • Bruce = Matt hayes

  • Bruce alone said "ya know" 10 times :P Up the irons!

  • @tokorev747777 maybe more

  • While I sometimes question whether Janicks guitar is even on with the amount of dancing around and stuff that he does, it does prove that Maiden is a real class act for keeping him on board after Adrian returned. All the Maiden guys seem like real good guys.

  • Why in the hell did they add a 3rd guitar player?

  • @ten8goa They didnt add a 3rd guitar player, Adrian left the band, so Janick replaced him, then Adrian came back and they kept Janick

  • steve harris is my idol!!!

  • steptoe mc brain waffles on & on & on

  • WHROOOWHM, you see!? this is a steering weel mate! hahahaha i lol'd!

  • the drummer is a flat face :U but that doesnt matter he is a awesome drummer anywayz

  • you guys have way too much time on your hands 

  • @xMrxJoeyxQx

    says someone who is watching it when its not relevent to there intrests?

    grow up.

  • Using the "hook" (one finger, it's just to quote The Late James Jamerson, if someone don't get it) or the walking technique or going with three or more fingers, it depends a lot on what you really want to come out from your bass, on what rhythmic figures you play and how you want them to sound; however, it seems Jaco once said he spent a life learning to play with three fingers, until he found out he could do the same things with two :-)

  • He said "you know" 12 times in one minute and 10 seconds..

  • @CmdkyL You know he is epic though you know because Iron Maiden is god you know? lol

  • Having those three amazing guitar players and having that bass-god and having those drumming skills and having that stunnishing frontman with that mind-blowing voice, should be enough to declare them the masters of the world!!!

  • i like to pee pee

  • I carry cucumbers in my trousers.

  • Wow, they all seem like such nice people..

  • para q maiden suene bien al 100% deverian sacar a dave murray es el peor de la banda a los unicos q son realmente buenos y y se nota en los discos en los q estan ausentes son a dickinson,adrian smith,nicko y a harris y a janick solo para decir q hay una segunda guitarra y aunque tiene temas y solos buenos se mando muchas cagadas

    y dave murray ni un solo punteo me gusta de el y de canciones escritas por el deve aver una o 2 cuanto muchoel the number of the best es uno de los mejores cd por smith

  • you know you know

  • ummmm....... this one goes to 11........ sounds totally like Nigel...

  • @Fontoxx its like Mr. Mackey just with the " you know" instead of "mkay"

  • i like playing bass.... and my girlfriend loves it "if you know what i mean ;D

  • I just want to say: if he says... if you want to be part of a band its because you want to be part of band (or anything you want o be part of), not because of girls (or anything), he is so damn right if anything you want to be part of something... just because thats what you want...

  • @Fontoxx u steald words from my mouth xDDD

  • @mateosivi hahaha if you want them back, you' ll have to pay

  • @Fontoxx you know i dont pay money for my words you know you know .... xdDDD

  • @Fontoxx I have noticed that every rocker interview can't be without these :)

  • Adrian,Dave and Janick just sitting there chillin',the awesomeness-meter blew sky high! \m/!what's with the Janick hate here?sure he jumps around and dances on stage so what,that's called ''having energy'' for crying out loud!when Adrian returned I was actually worried Janick would go I wanted all 3 of them!

  • What song starts playing at 2:45?

  • @wazza32295 Lord of Light

  • I played in a metal band in the early 80s that did a lot of maiden ,I never used 3 fingers to play any of it you can gallop with 2, Billy Sheehan , Victor Wooton and guys who do a lot of tapping use 3 but not Steve Harris.

  • "ya know"

  • you know,you know :))

  • adrian kinda looks like a hippie but his beard and guitar playing are cool XD

  • Metal pretty much began from the new wave of British metal :D

    Proud to be from the UK :)

  • janick is as good as any of the guitarists. a true maiden fan likes everything they've done including the blaze years. fuck off if you dont,.

  • Coolest band in the world! : D

  • yes bruce, I know!! you know?

  • How much fun it must be to have Nicko McBrain as a friend!People around him are blessed!

  • This has been one of my favorite bands since 1982 and this is the first time I've heard any of their voices (other than Bruce, of course). What a cool piece of footage.

  • HUMAN GODS!!!!!

  • You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know.

You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. You Know. I have the same problem :( But he rules, I don't lol

  • I've loved this band since in 2000 I bought a new tape of brave new world. I'm 21 now and I still love their music as much as I did when I heard them for the first time. They had millions of fans before me and they'll have millions of new ones 20 years from now.

    THAT's called IMMORTALITY.

    And it's due to music and pasion not some MTV bullshit.

    Cheers mates. Up the IRONS!!!

  • you know you knoW xD bruce yes we know

  • Dave Murray...one of the worlds best guitarists. Just dont talk so much

  • If Nicko wanted to be seen by the crowd more maybe he could play on a smaller bass drum so then the toms will be lower.

  • I love Niko! Kick ass drumer, good bloke!

  • 1:22 Nicko = Legend. End of.

  • you know, you know, you know.... xD

  • Yes, Bruce. We know.

  • I LOL'D at 2:00.

  • hahaha i fucking love nicko!

  • McBrain is so freaking hilarious all the time xD

  • I perfected my style of playing bass from watching and listening to Steve. I sometimes had said that he was my bass teacher. Only because back in 82. I got ahold of "Killers" and would not stop until I could play every song on that album. I saw early on that Steve played with 2 fingers so I did. I cannot play any other way. The other two fingers just get in the way. LOL

    It is just that when he is moving his two fingers fast. The other to move also and give the look of all of them going.

  • and I always thought it was a 3 finger attack...I'm even more impressed now.

  • Such an inspirational band. Hands down the greatest band in the world.

  • The best fuckin band of Metal History ..

  • @Bru878

    100% true.

  • TO EVERYONE SHOULD BE OUT OF IRON MAIDEN LISTEN UP: i am still waiting for a legit reason he should be out. everyone is still in because they are pretty much best friends, and they love the music they are playing. janick is no exception. they dont care about the fuckin money fame or shit, they like to HAVE FUN.

  • I didn't know there was a debate as to whether or not Harris used only two fingeres.

  • Janick can do brilliant tricks with his guitar :P..

  • Hahaha... "You see, this is just a steering wheel mate"

  • It doesn't matter how you pick as long as you can hit the notes on time with the right dynamics. Steve pulls it off with the two finger picking, some use the "box" technique, but three is necesary for guys like Billy Sheehan and Steve Digeorgio.

  • nicko is like a little kid its funny
