When I was 13 I didn't have the money to go see Maiden live, so my friends and I went to a fortress wall outside the venue to watch them play. The only sound I could hear clearly was the monstrous clang of Steve's bass rig. A fond memory to this day
That's a wonderful memory! I was 13 when I got Live After Death on cassette tape. I wore it out on a Sony Walkman. We had one rock station, every night about 12am, they would play 2 Minutes to Midnight, I would wait every night for them to play, I was 13. I did not get to see them live until I was 19. Good times
I love how Steve is all "Yeah, I bought this in the beginning of time, and I'm going to use it until the end of time".
he's...caught somewhere in time.
@@independenceltd.😖
Not like mustaine who changed brand and 5 differenct colors every 2 years
🤣🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤣🤣🤣
Until it doesn't work.
I love that Steve is such a creature of habit; he knows what he likes, and if it ain't broke, don't fix it! 😄 Thank you for this very neat video!
And if it is broke, pray that you have a backup. And a backup for that!
And if it is broke, never send a roadie to talk to Nicko while he's playing, it wouldn't end well
@@alessandropileri4405 TRUE 😂
🤣🤣@@alessandropileri4405
I like how he didn't switch to amp modelers.
Apparently, Michael Kenney who was Steve's bass tech and the band's keyboardist for 34 years retired after last year's tour. I'm glad I was able to hear him live before he called it a career.
I was wondering where he went
Right, I had no idea that Michael Kenney retired either. Good to know he has a worthy replacement.
Michael Kenney was the 6th member, wait, is that 7th? Which one was Martin Birch? He was always the 6th? Hehe. Either way, Michael was an important piece of the touring band.
i didn't think this guy's name sounded familiar.
Michael Kenney also played keyboards backstage for the band…and also onstage if they played Seventh Son.
He definitely earned his retirement…Steve kept the man busy.
MASSSIVE respect for you man. Playing 10 songs with the band while also being Steve’s tech 🔥
So humble "oh, and I also play kb on almost every song" 😂
Bro should be onstage!
Proper band. Proper musicans. Proper sounds.
No playbacks and mimics😉
They use a playback to open the show with the intro of Aces High or Caught Somewhere In Time so they can enter the stage running with fireworks.
I would like to hear the live intro once.
Steve's bass tone and rig is like the secret recipe of a well known brand. It works, and has always been successful, why ever change it?
Hey Oliver, your channel is one of the best bass channels on youtube.
@@mouthbreatherinc5597 thanks man, hopefully I'll be able to put out some more Steve Harris content soon 😌
I'm extremally happy to see such a an oldschool rig. This is the tone that got me into the metal music 28years ago and it's still unchanged.
Remember Steve is the founder of the band since 1975
48 fucking years of Heavy Metal with the best musicians/singer of the Earth🤘💪🌟⚡️🔥
Awesome work Brent: Balancing all of that must be fun but demanding! Steve made me want to play bass - watching "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" from "Live After Death" when I was 12 years old 🙌
Greatest bassist in the music history
Awesome! Can’t wait for Janick and Adrian!
Totally agree about Adrian...Sean Brady needs to star in his own video!
Thank you Bret, to you and all crew behind the courtain as you said! we love you too
Steve Harris = the greatest metal bassist of all-time!! Maiden = the greatest band of all-time!! Steve paved the way for all future metal bands from back then and still to this day. Love his lyrics, songwriting, and charisma on stage. Steve is life, and Maiden is life! UP THE IRONS!!! 🤘🤘🤘
P.S. Iron Maiden's gonna get you, no matter how far... !
PLEASE DO ALL OF THEM
Meu deus!! Um vídeo sobre o equipamento do Mestre Steve Harris!! Como baixista assisti o vídeo inteiro com olhos brilhando vendo como funciona o motor do som do baixista que é meu ídolo e minha maior influência!!
Obrigado, Mr. Brent Diamond, por fazer o som do Master Harris soar tão incrível para nós!! UP The irons!! 🤘😁
Amazing to see that much of the rig has been toured for decades! Also amazing that Brent plays keyboards from his tech station. That's a lot of work before, during, and after the show!
Iron maiden is the best 🤘
Thanks for that.
Rush is also the best.
But Maiden is also too the best.
Love how attainable the fallback gear is, and still sounds great!
Always nice to see the people behind the scenes adding to the musical presentation. Up the ivories Brent!
I’ve been waiting to see a video on Steve’s rig, even though it’s fairly minimalistic you can’t go wrong with the classic setup
I watched it with great interest. It's great that Mr. Harris has been using the equipment for so long. thank you.
You are a very busy man behind the scenes. Thanks for your efforts.
Hope we're getting ones for Janick and Adrian🤘
Nice. My favorite bass part from Steve is the intro to Blood on the World's Hands.
that's how you do a rundown. less than 5min. efficient and informative. didn't know 'arry's bass tech was also the in-concert keyboardist.
Here you can see again: the sound is in the fingers of the musician 🤘
Thanks for the amazing video. Steve is the reason why I play bass. He has the best tone.
Can't wait to see what special surprise Bruce was hinting at hopefully new live album?
Probably. Still have Bruce's solo stuff coming out as well. Up the Irons!! \m/
Hopefully Gers retires.
@@hugolafhugolafDude he brings charisma and energy to the band, not to mention a great guitar player. Don't understand the hate on gers.
I bet they will. Especially bc they never did a live album back when Somewhere in Time first came out and they’ve regretted it ever since
Nothing wrong with Janick. He's also written or helped write some excellent tunes over the years.
Great video! I love these behind the scenes look at musician's gear. Tech guys...the unsung heroes of every great rock band!
My god, he still has that Peter Cornish switching unit. I remember seeing it in their Compass Point photos when they were recording Powerslave. You would think that electronic gear would burn by now.
Well, think he takes the care of his equipment very seriously...and also has access to the best technicians/companies out there🤷♂️
Best Band Of All time and you tube reports😊🤟🖤🔝
So he is responsible BOSS OF THE GODS guitars?!?!!? Also the keyboardist?!! Really killer crew!!! UP THE IRONS!!!🤘🤘🤘
Adrian's rig please!🙂
I like his new tech. The guy seems genuine and professional
Stev Harris y Cliff Burton, la razón por la cual escogí tocar el Bajo hace 20 años.
Like númber one from Brazil !!! UP the Irons
There are a lot of missing pieces in this interview. I will try to explain as much as I understand: All the oldschool rack units (dbx, Aphex, 81 preamp etc.) are actually for Steve's onstage sound (for his hearing). So the Marshall cabs on stage are not actually miked. He says they send DI and Tech 21 signals to FOH. So the sound the audience hears may actually be a blend of these two: To elaborate a bit more, the FOH engineer applies a hi-cut filter to the DI signal to fill in the low-end and the Tech 21 gives Steve's characteristic ding ding tone. I don't understand what the Kemper is there for, though. Because he says he uses GK units as a backup rig.
Thanks for the rundown!
Indeed my thoughts. Anyone have an idea what the kemper is for?
@@ovanderbeekhow else is he gonna make toast
@@ovanderbeekI haven't watched the whole vid yet but at a guess it's a back up if everything else fails
That was awesome. Would be nice to see Adrain’s setup as well.
Steve is a legend among legends
Thanks for sharing! Best of luck with the rest of the tour.
Amazing!!! Same tone, same gear, same high level!! Steve Harris, a true legend!!
Davey: "this guitar has well over 20 years, it's time to change it"
Steve: "I bought this bass when I was 17 and I'm gonna use it untill the day I die"
FINALLY!!!! AFTER ALL THOSE YEARS....NOW WE KNOW THAT HE STILL USES PRETTY MUCH THE SAME THING...FANTASTIC!!
I think he should get some time on stage, maybe during Hell On Earth, just to get some credit, because the fact he plays all those keyboard parts live every night as opposed to just activating backing tracks is amazing.
Steve’s previous tech, Michael Kenney, had a little time on stage during Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, but overall he was backstage too, and agree keyboards gives a dramatic atmosphere during those song
my absolute band 💪❤💪
Just after me!!! Just kidding! Maiden is for everyone!!! U0 THE IRONS!!!🤘🤘🤘
didn't know there was another musician in the band, thats great
Pretty sure steve plays all the keys on the albums, but I always thought they had the keys as backing tracks live!
@@liammews2375 their keys have always been live. Don't think they've ever had a set where 10 songs had keys before though.
Kinda disrespectful to have him off stage, but what can ya do, these older bands need to keep their image up...
@@ileutur6863 He has to keep his eye on Steves sound thats his main purpose
image? Maiden has been the same forever and doesn't change for any image or anyone. He couldn't be running back and forth playing and taking care of Steve's bass sound if he wasn't back stage.
1:18: "Steve how much treble you want to have?" Steve:"Yes" :))))) upTheIrons - Steve is THE MAN!
Wait! You're Iron Maidens keyboardist!?! What the hell. That's amazing!!
It's insane that Steve has been using the same Bass for every recording and live show since the start. He was like this is my baby it works I ain't changing.
They are awesome Live! Saw them with Bruce Dickinson back in the day!! Great show
Sweet! I love these insider tells . It's nice to be getting to know the people in one of my favorite bands ever. I've had a few but wow❣️❣️❣️🤘🤟❤❤💖
Desde aquí un recuerdo a Michael Kenney , el mítico roadie de Steve y que se jubiló en la anterior gira. Up the irons!
Tech 21 sounds amazing in an effects loop.
Como sempre profissionais ao Extremo.
LLLLLOOOOVVVVEEEEE I MAIDEN
Just utterly amazing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Up the Irons!! \m/
I was torn between buying EV speakers or Altos for my setup. And this just solved it for me haha thanks Brent!
STEVE IS SO AMAZING 🥰 I love that man so much!
Brazil!!!
I love that he runs his signature pedal!! I have one of these, it's the dog's bollocks!!
Purely Awesomeness 🤘
Love this kontent!!! Keep em coming we NEED Adrian next! He shouldve been before Dave as he uses a bunch of different gear
Wow, that Korg tuner is vintage. Steve obviously doesn't like change. He knows not to stray from what works and is proven
I bet Steve had the folks at Fender Custom Shop clone that Precision Bass neck for him down to the micrometer, there's no way he toured with the original neck that many years...
The main thing he loves about that bass is the extremely heavy body and how the thing sounds.
Agree, sh-t happens on the road to risk that bass🤷♂️, think he mention that his original its use for recordings only, in the making of AMOLAD documentary🤔
What we're really missing is more interviews with Steve.
One of favorite bass players of all time outside of Getty Lee and the late Chris Squire!
Thank you so much Maiden 🙏✨
And thank you so much Brent Diamond!
If Bill Bailey was a Pokemon, Brent is what happens when you give him a moonstone.
Tks for shoring! Up the Irons \o/🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Would be rad to see him on stage!!!
Man is quite busy filling Michael Kenney's shoes but Brent landed a dream gig.
Crazy how such a straight forward rig is still a load of gear. 😅
Classic Maiden sound!
The Red and The Black came about instructing Brent on which cables to connect. True story.
I don't get why bands don't just say "This cool guy over here on stage left plays keyboards / synth for us and he's awesome! Let's hear it for Brent!"
Steve sticking to what he knows best. That stuff will retire when he does, clearly. But we need at least one more studio album before that happens.
I'd be so thankful if they managed to produce one more. I'm sure they have it in them but as they aren't getting any younger I just hope things align for all of them to get it done.
Finally, I've been waiting for it for a long time. ✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌✌

Finalmente! Obrigado!
I was surprised it wasn't Michael Kenney, I had no idea he retired last year. Big shoes to fill!
I love iron maiden come to Belfast again!
That guy is a literal Swiss army knife back stage 😄👍👍
Legend group, love group 🙏🍀❤️🎼🎶👌🎵✌️🎸🎤🥁
I have to be honest, Steve Harris is one of the most insane and yet simple bass players.
I can play like this guy with one bass and one amp which it is super inspirational.
Up the irons!
I really liked this video, I'm learning to play bass, I'm also going to have a band! I really like Iron Maiden!🤘
Great stuff! 🤘
Magnifico.⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️
Love it!
We play a few maiden numbers in our set and I use his preamp.pedal and it's really good at replicating his sound using a P bass with his massive flat wounds. Interested to know what you use the Kempers for?
3:02 Steve fait ses courses à Super U !
Oh man, when Steve eventually stops playing, how nice it would be to have his speakers in my living...
Very informative i wish acdc would do things like this go back stage and meet the crew they dont get the recognition they all deserve the hours they put in all men and women working the sacrifices they make its not a 9 to 5 job. Very very long hard working crew. I really hope the long term crew really do get a bonus and able to take some time off and spend it with families. I hope that the crew iron maiden crew are looked after i know they really do work such long hours
Meh
1. TH-cam->
2. Premier Guitar->
3. AC/DC
AC/DC is very mediocre
really need to get myself one of those Tech 21 pedals
🙏😁
UP THE IRONS 🤘
All the best!
I'm seriously thinking of buying one of those Tech21s as a DI.
It's a toss-up between the classic SansAmp, Steve's or Geddy Lee's signature model.
😎🙏
I wish someone would film Steve's right-hand at 1000fps so that I can just properly witness it at work.
🤘🏽Up the Irons🤘🏽
