...not sure if this is going to be the video or a link but it's "The Eagle Has Landed" by Saxon in Pittsburgh PA Thursday night. My wife took it. It doesn't sound too bad but she's right next to the speakers so there is some distortion. It's worth listening to or I wouldn't post it. She did mess up a little on filming the solos but you guys should still like this.

Since you mentioned me I'll chime in. The thing is I can't really comment on new Maiden. I"m guessing you might remember a post of mine a few years back about a show I went to that had Halford opening for Maiden back in 2000. I mentioned that Bruce went on an anti-gay rant and all I could think of during is Rob backstage maybe hearing this shit. Never liked Bruce Dickenson since. Some here doubted that happened but I can say in all sincerity that I've never lied about anything on here. I've been wrong or mistaken but never lied. It's been 15 years since that happened and I still refuse to purchase, listen to, or acknowledge anything Iron Maiden because of it. Also (and on a different note) ... @ JD specifically, sign up for facebook. Just do it for the Saxon page. I know what you think of them and I'm telling you you would love it. The band is always on there and constantly interacting and posting. I went to the Pittsburgh show last week. I am not saying this for you I'm being serious. I was totally amazed at just how good they were. It had to be close to as good as their early days. They said they haven't played Pittsburgh since 83' so that helps explain why I've never seen them. After the show I was bummed I've never seen them before especially in their prime. They concentrated on three albums(my favorites) for the most part but did play other stuff. Crusader, Battering Ram(new), and others. Biff took a video from the stage to post on facebook. My wife is on it but you have to know where and hit pause to see her but it was still cool. She took some awesome videos for me. I'll post 2 or 3 of them here for you. She got a drumstick and I got a guitar pick. They didn't throw much out so both of us getting something was cool. Probably not the answer to your question but you ask me so...?? Anyway, take care!

I only heard "Speed of Light", and it's.....okay. It's got the same feel as The Final Frontier album. Hence, why I have not rushed to the nearest Best Buy and bought "Book of Souls".
Most days I feel that the Eddie artwork has cheapened the band's music quality completely. Have you seen the music video to Speed of Light? That's some visually impressive stuff marching to the sound of an okay song. At this point they could make an album of them just farting and burping on the mike, slap on some awesome Eddie-related artwork and the fans would gobble it up and claim that it rivals the classics.
Ok....guido....HRMG....spa.....Head Banger....Budred....Vail......Iron Maiden's new album "The Book Of Souls" is #1 in 24 countries......this BY FAR crushes the numbers Redeemer Of Souls album has achieved......this doesn't bother me because we all know Maiden is BIGGER than Priest in popularity much due to "EDDIE" and artwork packaging ect...
what bothers me is that I listened to this album twice and I really wanted to like this album and wanted a great Maiden album just one more time but the only song on the entire album that is decent is the 2nd track "Speed Of Light"....the rest? The rest of the entire album is "FLAT BORING".
Nostrodamus beats this BY FAR.
What bothers me more is that there is a STAGGERING AMOUNT of fan comments hailing this album as BRILLIANT......all different places like blabbermouth...youtube.....I just dont get it? My god The Final Frontier was terrible and even THAT I this is more interesting.
I think the new Maiden album The Book Of Souls "SUCKS". Guys......what do you think?

J.D., I honestly have not heard the whole thing as I had to go to Memphis the past couple of days but did hear one song on SiriusXM. "Eh...." was exactly what I thought. I'll report once I get a chance to see the whole album (stopped by a Best Buy and SAW it) but, as you say, cover but heaven help us if this is another 8minute / track album as has been the norm since I tuned out after "Fear of the Dark." Sure, good song here and there but few and far in between.
Same thing went for WASP. You know I was a fan and was really hoping for a good comeback but the DJ on the Boneyard gave the only track I heard such hype (even said that it was on par with Blackie in the 70s? - yeah, 70s?!?). Again, nope. No hit with the only song I heard. Cannot believe the hype around that one either. Hell, WASP was more an 80s - 90s band! WTF was that guy smoking, I wondered. 70s?!?
I'll say what I think once I get a moment to listen to both albums. I'll say that I even wondered about the Scorps. Goodbye tour that lasted a year+ and now a new album finally released in the States (same album released in Germany 6 months ago). Is this on par for the Stones or Ozzy who had a "goodbye tour" back in the 80s?
At least I have a good feel that when I go see Alice / Crüe next month that they mean it! Crüe says "goodbye" and I am sure it will happen due to the Vince / Tommy hatred.
Time will tell but Tommy isn't even signing for the VIPs. Sad to have three of four but better than none.

Just got back from Memphis, Auntie B. Hall and Oates! Second row! Expensive but what a jam!
Too damn hot, though. Outdoor event and they were to give me a wristband to get into the pit (ha! Hall and Oates) when I walked in the gate. Had to jog back to the entrance to get one but good time all around.
Hope all is well with y'all. See some 40+ spam messages (all on ignore) so I see not much has changed here. Only with you and your snoring mate! LOL!!! Always a pleasure to read you and N.T.O. Counteracts the idiots to a certain degree!
Absolutely, without a doubt, have developed a crush on the artistic prowess of John5! I stumbled across a video clip of a time on stage when MM kicked him (couldn't really tell if Manson did it on purpose or the freaking Frankenstein clod hoppers he was lumbering around on stage in were too much for his nimbly form to manage ). J5 went on the defensive. He seems pretty passive. But neither will he take shit \m/ I like that in the objects of my adoration!
So, Uncle G, how's life?

@Val, the backwards button on your turntable was your finger. Hold on the record and spin backwards. Good luck getting the speed right though. I remember doing this a few times as a kid. I think Led Zeppelin was the first band accused of doing this. Believe they even had a term for it. Backward masking. If you really wanted to hear something this way you could probably trick yourself into thinking it's there but basically just a mind thing. Dismissed this stuff as ridiculous a long time ago and still hate Al and Tipper because of it. I even voted Nader once just because it was that or go with Gore. Sorry but I can never vote conservative. People like me probably gave G.W. his first term. Thanks Al you f***ing piece of shit.

Apologies for being the Whippersnapper of the 'Board, but CAN you listen to music backwards? Was there a "listen to music backwards" setting on the tape player/record player?
