@dirtyrottenimb steve is my favorite bass player of all time. he mabye not a crazy as say les claypool but he writes almost all maidens songs and drives their whole sound. it takes a real man to wear those pants infront of thousands of people
Iron Maiden, all members are great musicians...when jannick gers came into the picture I was skeptical at first, but jannick fuckin rocks too!!!...their songs generally contain more notes, rather then cords. GREAT live band, they can replicate what you hear on the CD live on stage...a testimony to their musicianship
The whole band comes together and produces a very unique writing style, but Steve Harris's bass picking is very prominent to their sound. Seems like I can always hear him beating the Hell out of it. HES SUCH A GREAT BASS PLAYER!
part of his sound comes from a combination of using flatwound strings and a Badass 2 bridge. i love how the lows are nice and full and the mids and highs cut through everything else! and believe it or not he only uses 2 fingers! i use 3 and i have a little trouble with the faster stuff
Here's an odd thought to dwell on: have you ever thought it might be creepy to the band members that someone who's never met them before can know almost everything about his past life just because they're famous? I'd be creeped out if some 'fan' I'd never seen in my life knew everything about my childhood and my personal life. That's the REAL problem with Internet, it's a gateway
Ok. But what I meant is that it is very different from the studio version - at least the vocals is - so it sounded like another person was singing. (and you cant exactly see whos singing behind that mask).
He wore it because he thought it resembled an Eagle, or bird actually. It goes along with the theme of the tour/song. He got it an S&M shop in California. lol
i was 15 years old in my freshman yr. of high school,,,damn those were the days ,,fucking Maiden..

If you can only tell bruce's voice when looking at him. You're not a real fan.

Thank you very much for that - I just spent £27.5 on membership in the Iron Maiden Fan Club.
And I just want to inform you that when I wrote that comment, I was pretty new to Iron Maiden.

I just saw on the insert of the live album. There you can find all dates of the shows from the tour "Live After Death".
This live concert was recorded in Los Angeles, on the Long Beach Arena, between March 14th and March 17th from 1985.
