I lost my voice at the Maiden show last night so the video-blog of the day is gonna have to wait.
Maiden were amazing. They were on fire and the audience reacted in a way that I haven't seen in LA in forever. The LA Forum was more akin to a sold-out show in Europe than the usual seen it/done it bored LA audience. The crowd was singing everything. And not just the words, the melodies as well. The energy in the room never waned and Maiden kept delivering knock-out blows. Rime Of The Ancient Mariner was my favorite song of the set. Lars leaned over to me and said the great thing about Rime is that we never have to worry about if our songs are too long!! The rabid crowd ate up all 12 minutes of it.
I was at the sound-board with Lars and we were 21 again singing every word. I have been going to Maiden shows since they opened for Judas Priest in 1981. Anthrax has played over 100 shows with them. What I'm saying is, I've seen a lot of fucking Maiden shows and last night was a special one. The band is at the top of their game, arguably better now than ever. Steve Harris, whose unwavering vision for his band has carried them in to that rarified air that only a few bands ever get to breathe, is an icon and an inspiration as a musician and a person. Ever the gentleman, and at the same time the embodiment of all that is metal. And Bruce, holy crap, what can I say? The "air-raid siren" nickname still holds true. He hits every note. Every fucking note. Not an easy task even if he was just standing there concentrating on the vocals. Fuck that. The man rules that stage like Wolverine in a fight. He must log as many miles onstage as he does flying the Maiden jet!! It just goes to show how full of shit all these acts are that run backing tracks because they can't sing and move (or god-forbid dance) at the same time. I was completely blown away by Bruce and can comfortably say he is the best frontman alive. He showed me last night. Dave (let's play poker buddy!), Adrian and Jannick were ripping (i loved when there were 3 Strats onstage) and the triple harmonies were perfect.
I'm still buzzing from the show and I'm going to crank Powerslave as soon as I finish this. Lucky for the rest of the U.S that they're coming back in May and June for a full tour (i am officially submitting Anthrax for the opening slot!!!). I'm jealous of my friends in NJ that get to see them in a few weeks. Wear your diapers because you're going to crap your pants.
Was last night the re-birth of metal in LA? It's like KNAC never went away.
Up the Irons!!!!!!!!
Cheers,
Scott
Jeps,vi vil ha Anthtax som opvarmning

Dette er muligvis den bedste ”anmeldelse” af en Maiden koncert jeg nogensinde har læst. Ikke så mange dikkedarer og krumspring, men bare ren fascination over dette guddommelige band. Ventetiden føles nu dobbelt så lang som før, så tusind tak Scott!

god andmeldesle. det er rart at læse noget en andemeldelse fra en
metal musiker istedet for en eller anden tilfældig rock journalist.
JA! Anthrax som opvarmning lyder perfekt i mine ører!

Det er en super andmeldelse.. Anthrax som opvarming, det kommer så lidt anpå hvem der synger i Anthrax, og hvad de vil spille Live! Hvis det er "Old School" sa er det

Hvis vi er så heldige at de kommer på,
så kunne det være fedest hvis der blev spillet
materiale fra 80'er pladerne.
Der havde på et tidspunkt været rygter om ham
fra slipknot ville blive ny forsanger.

Ja med sån en anmeldelse fra Scott Ian, så kan man sku kun glæde sig til sommer når det går løs, Så dem på Sweden Rock i 2005, hvor Anthrax jo havde Joey Belladonna på vocal og kun spillede det gamle shit, og det var fanme helt kanon, men eftersom de har fået ny forsanger og er ved at lave ny plade, tror jeg sku ikke det sker. Men hold da kæft det kunne være fedt med dem som opvarmning

Fed kommentar fra Scott, der. Det er jo ærlig snak, når det kommer fra en som ham.
