It's never too late for a Iron Maiden obsession !
Seems like that there is a lot of that going around on youtube
Maiden is just too damn good
Amen, I thank God I grew up in an era of great bands and massive concert arenas.
Up the Irons 🤘🤘🤘
for an iron maiden Lesson :D
Rock in rio 2001... maiden Headliner infront of about 250.000 people... must have been one of the most impressive musical rock events ever...
metal bands are huge in brasilia. when german thrashmetal band SODOM went over to play and they where here in germany playing for 1000 people venues or so, they got an absolute rockstar greeting, their hotel was STUFFED with fans like it was Justin Bieber playing in highschool near you
@@IH8YH yea I know, I’ve seen sodom in my teenage years as German with Tom I’m actually living right by their hometown gelsenkirchen 😜
i was there, epic show! 2013 too!
@@IH8YH sorry, just you to know. its Brasil. Brasilia is the capital of the country. The concert was at Rio de Janeiro
Metallica and Pantera played in front of a million people in Russia.. but 250k is still impressive for real
We are slowly but surely turning Ken into a metal head and I'm here for it.
Since you wasted your youth missing out on Maiden, you should react to Wasted Years by Iron Maiden.
A song, I don’t think, is reacted to enough
That whole album is kick ass. Alexander the Great is my favorite Maiden song along with probably 15 others. Asking a Maiden fan what their favorite song is is like asking what is their favorite steak.
🤘🤘UpTheIrons🤘🤘
Clever🤘🤘
Oh excellent choice👌🏻
He should do the live version from Flight 666, he’ll get to hear Adrian singing.
Ken, you were killing me in this one. "Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce" - "Band, Band, Band, Band" "Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce, Bruce" - "Band, Band, Band". And a Beaker reference. I didn't see that one coming. In fact, I think that was the first Beaker reference I have ever heard in my entire life. Classic.
“I sound like Beaker. When Bruce sings it, it sounds manly and awesome!” Classic!!
😆 lol
Haaaa! Yes I loved that, absolutely hilarious. Ken was spot in with that tho 😂 the battle of Bruce and the band - epic!
🤣🤣
This same concert had what I consider to be the best rendition of Fear of the Dark. The way he commands the crowd is just beyond description.
Oh totally agree. One of my absolute favourite maiden songs👌🏻
Agreed
@@Kelly-pp1et he’s ass hole. Live ing under rock 🪨 remove the video thanks god we. Live. A world were rock is sill alive that guy live under a rock that guy voice. Sound like a baby 🍼 rock a. Roll ✌🏼 out
Blood brothers from this concert is one of my favourite live performances of any band
My personal favorite live fear in the dark is from Stockholm Sweden. I listen to it so much my wife has to tell herself that Stockholm is not in the lyrics.
Nico McBrain is one of the best drummers in the world, and he makes it look so effortless.
I swear people sleep on him. his work on the powerslave album is still some of my favourite drumming of all time. hits like a hammer every time
@@Brandon-cv9uh He never tries to hard. He just walks up on stage in a bathrobe and flip-flops. He goofs around, always smiling and doesn't look like he even breaks a sweat.
His style is so unconventional, but he beats a lot of other drummers who "play by the numbers"
And he's always so happy!
Fuck my old boots!
I love when vocal coaches try analyzing Bruce's vocal range and are amazed that he starts songs at such a high note, then end up realizing that he sings THE ENTIRE FREAKING CONCERT with the same high notes and energy. 😄
EDIT: Not even taking into account that he flies their freaking tour plane and still belts out a full concert...
i dont think coaches realize that bruce can hit FIVE octaves pretty easily
Don't forget he flies their plane (or leased) and almost made it to the GB Olympic fencing team plus a survivor of THROAT cancer off all things. WOW comes to mind would you not agree?
I'm over 50 and still love them as much as the first time I've heard them.
Me too, favourite moment has to be front row in Manchester and every one of them looking down directly at us
Me to!
Im young i love them. Hate the music my age listen to nowadays!
Same here, UP THE IRONS
Me Too!
Best live touring band that there’s ever been.
Nice reaction! Fun fact: Bruce Dickinson is a qualified 747 pilot and regularly flew Maiden's chartered 757, "Ed Force One", specially converted to carry their gear. He was also an international fencer.
Don't forget Olympic level clay pigeon shooter
Pffft, is that all he can do?! 😉 Well Bruce, I see your pilot licence , fencing awards and clay pigeon shooting rank, 40 year musical career and I raise you a certificate for swimming 25m front crawl from when I was 7.
Beat that, Dickinson. 😬🤣
He also piloted the 3rd incarnation of Ed Force One which was not a 757 but a 747 during the Book of Souls world tour
He is also rated to fly the 737.
@@Echodolly6 he also flys ww1 planes like the one the red baron flew and wrote a jet plane training manual plus 2 novels and is a university grad in history, though by his account not big on studies.. and was a professional passenger airline pilot
Merry month of Maiden? Yeees please! This makes me so happy right now!
Nicko ( the drummer) seems that his joy is infectious
Low key Iron Maiden are on of the most successful musical acts of all time. They regularly sell out soccer stadiums world wide. Their fandom is truly cross cultural and intercontinental.
My favorite interesting tidbit about Bruce is that he was an Olympic level fencer (he still fences, I believe), and was ranked number 7 in England. He's all round a pretty impressive man.
I worked local crew on a Maiden show in 2018 and i can say, they use a shit tonne of monitors, which is usually the case with older bands who don't use in ears at all. Also Nickos UK drum kit is absolutely Gorgeous up close.
I think only Adrian uses inears
I, and I'm sure everyone, is very happy you're going to take this plunge....
Honestly, if you did "only" Iron Maiden reactions, we'd still be here for months...
Perhaps even years......
Maiden's catalog is ........vast......and impressive and you well know.
This concert is what made my brain light up to metal music, and I have been a metalhead since! 2001!!
If this pandemic is putting Iron Maiden on the spotlight of the younger ones, let's bring the plague back!!! Merry month of Maiden, what a terrific idea!!! (and The Daily Doug has the Maiden Monday)
Empire of the Clouds. True masterpiece.
Saw them in 2019 and they were just as energetic as ever. Such a good show.
Likewise!
I disagree for Dave though. He barely moved the whole show in Quebec City.
I saw them 12 times. Great every time. I saw the Legacy of the Beast at Barclays center in Brooklyn as the Last show. Epic!
I haven't gotten a chance to see them live but I did see Judas priest at Rock on the range whatever year that was, and Rob halford still has it. We were joking that he was hitting oxygen backstage between songs but he's still got the pipes!
Even rode out onto the stage on the motorcycle
I'll send you a note: that opening high B that you were so impressed by. How's that for a note 🎶 🤣 🎤
I would speculate that they've pitched everything to his new vocal range. From what I know he had to learn how to sing all over again. That is testament to his dedication to his craft.
What a great morning treat! Now I'm going to be alternating between using 'Bruce' as replacement lyrics and Beeker Meep singing... AND got to hear Ken say 'ass'! 😱 A truly blessed Month of Maiden 😆
never too late for maiden! i don’t even know what to recommend anything from their first 7 records and even their 2000s material is incredible
Agreed. I just heard Dance Of Death in it's entirety for the first time today, and the album is criminally underrated. I loved Paschendale among other songs. I have dodged their newer stuff for years, but now I realize what I've been missing. Also, Brave New World is one of my favorite Maiden albums.
Up the Irons!, this is one of the few bands I would argue is better live than in the studio.
He is actually using audio blockers in his ears. Thought that was crazy as well when I first saw this. And I believe there were 250 thousand in that crowd.
I’ve really enjoyed your Merry month of Maiden! 🙌🏾 Such fun watching you experience the magic of Bruce Dickenson and your very funny and educational reaction. I loved hearing you describe how Bruce reaches the notes and understanding his style of singing. I’m obsessed with him - he’s just phenomenal! In fact it goes without saying the whole band are sensational. Their showmanship and musicianship on stage is so incredible. I’m blown away by this performance ❤️🎤🎸🥁🔥
Ken - please do "No more lies" and "Dance of death" of Iron Maiden - these are greatly build and composed pieces of art :) cheers!
Lifetime Maiden fan here. I can't describe how much joy I got out of watching you get blown away by the band and Bruce's antics. It really took my back to when I first discovered them as a kid and just couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. You got a sub. I am looking forward to the Month of Maiden!!
Oh yes sir, let's heavy metal the May ⚔💋
To answer your question, that wasn't the last song of the concert. That was like the end of the first half of the set. They were just quickly catching their breath before moving on with the night.
Live watching your videos, especially the maiden ones. Would love to see you do more maiden reactions
I really really love "The Clansman" from the same concert. What a blast! Besides, great video :) !
I believe this song is about the "charge of the light brigade"
They do speed up all the time. The crowd loves it. Rock in Rio show had 250K in attendance.
Because that's what a cavalry charge is like, you increase the speed the closer you come to the enemy.
@@darkiee69 I was referring to all their songs in general, but yeah, that also woeks.
@@darkiee69 It's because Nicko gets excited and plays faster. It's not uncommon for drummers. Nowadays I think he plays to a metronome, so the tempo's are more consistent nowadays.
No, I absolutely hate that. "Fast" does not necessarily equal "better."
@@Nghilifa That, I didn't know. But they're used to it.
Thats what ya gotta love about Maiden, you come for the metal, and leave with history lessons!! 🤘🤘
Love the Maiden Month idea. You should cheat a little and do Tears of the Dragon from Bruce’s solo career. I think you would love it and would make for a great vocal reaction.
Hey Ken, just jumping in on your comment about Bruce being so far away from his monitors and still staying in time and not over reaching with his vocals or getting lost. I'm a touring tech myself so wanted to (with all respect) explain how an act like Maiden can move around the stage so much and not get flustered or fall out of time. In addition to each member having there own monitor rig and sometimes in ears as well (believe it or not) bands like Maiden have what we call side fills stage left and stage right which is essentially a feed from FOH - (Front of house - the audio the audience hears). This is also sent to additional fold backs on stage in required areas such as infant of drum kit and on stage risers. Hope that helped! Love your videos and your down to earth reactions especially of Maiden.
This is the song that hooked me on Maiden!
Based in the poem "The Charge of the Light Brigade", this song is AMAZING
Maiden is a love for life ❤️ 20 years listening to them
Hey Ken, i recently stumbled upon your channel and i have to say, you are by far the most humble and charming vocal coach react to - chan on YT. Some of the others are so condecending or even mocking styles they dont like, but you are enjoying music in its true form, in all forms. That brings me joy! Thank you!
By the way, check out the polish Black Metal Band Behemoth, they are awesome and definitly not something you have seen so far!
Keep on rocking Ken, rain or shine!
Behemoth is shit, I am polish and telling you this, I never listened to them at all only heard some bits but hate Darski and his behaviour. Maybe people like their music and they are the only polish band that is famous outside our country, but he is not respected in Poland. Some of his behaviours are tearing up the Bible, breaking up with his ex wife after she help him fight cancer, ratting on other people, or shitting on his own country and its patriotic elemenents. Even if his shit is satanic he should respect other views also he had a lot of court cases about those incidents. For me he should change his nationality and leave our country if he hates everything about it.
Your f-ing right there tight ! And don't forget this is 20 years into there career . THATS HOW GOOD BRUCE IS
Thoroughly enjoy binge watching all these videos from alot of my favorite metal bands!!! I've been watching for about five or six hours now. This channel rocks, and I'm so glad I found it.
They did speed up, most metal musicians do it when they play in front of a huge crowd. It's the adrenaline, it's not something they do on purpose.
According to Nicko, sometimes he and Steve do speed up on purpose for shits and giggles - if for no other reason than to wind up Bruce...
I saw them live when they came to Mexico in 2013 and it was one of the best experiences of my life! :D
I recommend you react to the swedish band Avatar, you're gonna love their stage presence, especially the singer Johannes Eckerstrom :)
Hi Ken
as someone else here has already pointed out, the Live in Rio version of "Fear of the Dark" is one of the most remarkable live performances ever. Definitely watch it!
You said it man! Iron Maiden and Bruce are always about the show. It's not just the music. It's also the performance I've seen Maiden 3 times between 1996 and 2016 as well as a bruce Solo performance and wish I was old enough during the mid 80s to have seen a few more!
Ken, your appreciation of Bruce makes my day. Every time.
If you ever get the chance to see Maiden live, Do It! Bruce is such an amazing front man, that you could be at the back of the arena, and he'll still connect with you as if you were right up front.
That band changed my life on what I was capable of doing THANK YOU FOR THAT
MORE MAIDEN! Awesome reaction as usual
BRUCE BRUCE BRUCE BRUCE BRUCE BRUCE forever when i listen to this song. Thanks for that...lol
Rock in Rio shows generally have 200K plus people attending.
The first one ever was so crowded the bands (Iron Maiden included) had to be flown to the stage in helicopters.
I saw Maiden back in 2008 an Bruce did not stop from beginning to end.
He is a machine!!!!!
I think one of the best things about this is that you can clearly see how much they all really love being on that stage.
I started listening to them when I was 13, back in 1985.... There's no metal band with such a bunch of talent all in one place as far as I know... It's in the league of superband 😁😁😁😁
Best crowd from Brazil!
Rime Of The Ancient Mariner. It is their best song, no matter live or studio. Do the Live After Death version, that was a monstrous tour and Bruce was worn out, but it´s still amazing performance, as he bulldozers it through by pure stamina as then a young man. Another good one live is 2008 version, but you will do the Live After Death from 80´s, trust me ! And the song is only 13 minutes short, I know you can manage, Ken !
I am so happy to have found You at this point in time. Your reaction to the craftsmanship feels genuine and honest. I can't help but feel a bit jealous about the amazing journey that is Iron Maiden 'pon which you are about to embark, but at least this new subscriber will be here for the reactions. Be well, stay safe and take care👍.
These guys don't get enough love .. looking forward to this month
its defo alot faster live than it is on the recorded version , but no less as good :D
I love how much you love Maiden. You fell into it and it grabbed you hard!
Some 200 thousand people. Rock In Rio festival is huge. This was Rock In Rio 3. Iron Maiden frontlined the "metal" thursday.
Back in 1985, it was their first time in Brazil, they opened for Queen.
I was lucky to see them on this tour. They still sound great, go see them while you can \m/
It’s great you can see the fun of Iron Maiden - seeing in Greensboro next week!
You have to do Iron Maiden - The Talisman (Live En Vivo), probably Bruce's best live performance! He doesn't even move around for that one because of how hard it is!
It's always awesome to see others broadening their musical taste catolage. Love these videos you do as well as your original music! Thanks for being awesome!
We cover this song and our drummer speeds it up also. It's got a drive that's hard to play slow.
Brilliant! The maiden fans will find you this month for sure
it's very simple for me: as I see that the video is about Iron Maiden - I upvote!
Maiden are my first metal love because of my older brothers in the 80s. I hope Run to the hills is on the list for the month
as far back as I can remember seeing Maiden live they've always had wedges as monitors and they're famous for using their wedges as footrests for their poses.
Just look how everyone seems so happy and joyful, band and crowd. Such a great band.
This is the only reaction I've looked forward to watching all day! Thanks Ken.
MONTH OF MAYDEN!! UP THE IRONS!
The only thing better than iron maiden is iron maiden live up the irons
Rock in Rio 2001, I was there and was the best Iron live performance I´ve seen.
you're gonna have a great month!! im obsessed with them
All I can say to this Month of Maiden idea is, UP THE IRONS!
For what it's worth, Beaker will be singing this in dreams tonight, God willing...
I was very young when I played the "forbidden" game Carmageddon. The game was fun, but what I loved most was the Iron Maiden tracks included with the sound track of the game. It made everything so much more epic.
I am so looking forward to this month, great choice!
Finally an authentic vocal coach on youtube. Great review.
Right on Ken! A Merry Month Of Maiden it shall be! Love your content man!
Up the irons Good for u looking at Maiden and enjoying the masterful Bruce and the boys of metal
Ok beaker! \m/
Up The Irons 🤘
Very excited for a month of Maiden ! !
Great performance, and reaction ! !
THAT WAS ROCK IN RIO 2000, OVER 70.000 PEOPLE WERE THERE, AT THE TIME IT WAS THE LOUDEST RECORD BREACKING CROWD EVER IN A CONCERT, I KNOW BECAUSE I WAS THERE, AT THE TIME I WAS 16, AND IT WAS AWESOME!!!
Mama mia, the double solo!!!
They have a like 10 hour documentary on their official TH-cam channel and it's really good
I subscribe.
I spent the entire video going. Hey welcome to maiden. Oh yeah that’s just Bruce. Just Bruce. Say hello to Bruce.
And this doesn’t even give you an idea just what Bruce’s stage presence IS.
As far as the inner ear monitor, it’s likely Bruce doesn’t need it. After 20+ years of doing this together it something they’re well rehearsed in. Always recommend seeing them live. I’ve seen them 7 times now, never gets old.
glad you could join us.
Just simply amazing!!! WOW JUST WOW!!
in an interview Nicko said, that they play the trooper on stage way faster as it was in the original version from 1983
No problem, I just listened somewhere in time album, cause i had nothing to do... and i have been listening to these guys since i was 15
The thing about Iron Maiden that made them so awesome I think is how they performed live
Every now and then listen to the recorded versions also not just live
The audience are killing it
An awesome fact about Bruce is that he's a licensed commercial pilot and he pilots the bands 747 from gig to gig. The 747 has Eddie on the fuselage.
Up the irons indeed. Welcome to the experience.
Iron Maiden-The talisman ...Please!
Good choice! As all the rest of their songs. Preferably live.
Merry Month of Maiden? Love it!
May is going to rock ... up the Irons!
I’m a new fan and i’m so glad i discovered them right before their new album comes out
This guy is awesome, great singer himself too.
