Fixed it for you Jezza - you just had some of the words in the wrong order. 
Who went to see Iron Maiden last night? |
nah, saw em last time they were in Melbourne. Took my son along and that was fun.
Not long turned 18 he'd never seen that much flannelette, beards and mullets in one place, ever (half of Adelaide had flown over for the concert) 
Never stuck that close to me since he was in primary school. |
Yes, the Boy told me when he got home that there was quite a bit of actual violence near the front (of course, this is all relative - he never stood on the outer wing at Victoria Park at a Collingwood-Carlton game). He suspects that there may have been a fair bit of ice used by a small proportion of the people who attended.
His report is that the performance was stunning, both musically and visually - apparently Maiden are very entertaining and engaging live. No "Aces High" (Dickinson, of course, has a brilliant, operatic singing voice, still - but there are limits to what is humanly possible, at his age), no "Two Minutes to Midnight", no "Run to the Hills" and only one song from Powerslave. Maiden played about 6 songs from the new album and the Boy considered it more interesting to hear all the stuff that hasn't been done to death, although his view is that "Children of the Damned" was the best performance of the night. |
I can vouch for Maiden being entertaining and engaging. A musical and visual feast!
The riff in Children Of The Damned just before the solos truly goes off😎 I'm pleased and surprised it's in their set again!

I'm thinking I should have gone, though by the sound of things I might not have lived through the moshing. |

'Since I've Been Loving You' is my favourite song of theirs, too. Perhaps our musical tastes aren't so incompatible after all.

Mine change with my mood but When the levy breaks, Immigrant Song, Ramble on, California, and Black dog are copping a fair pasting at the moment...
Also listening to a lot of Flogging Molly and The Rumjacks at the moment and a bit of Dropkick Murphies...much to my 6 year old's delight and wife's horror....Something subversive about a 6 year old singing kiss my Irish arse as we cook together...👍 |

Dropkick Murphies aren't bad at all.
Love Rose tattoo and also the boys are back. Rose tattoo more. Their Xmas song is brilliant.

Wilson and Duane.
The guitar playing on this comes with Eric's special recommendation, so it's worth a listen.
No, it really, really is.

It's hard to grasp that Wilson has been gone for more than a decade, now.
The Muscle Shoals studio band on this is quite incredible, too. I'm reasonably confident (but not certain) that the bass and drums are Hawkins and Hood - one of the greatest rhythm pairings in the history of recorded music.
Here's Duane (playing his famous slide guitar on this number), this time definitely with David Hood on bass and Roger Hawkins on drums and King Curtis on tenor sax with the Muscle Shoals guys, backing Aretha on her version of The Weight, also from 1969:

Whitney Houston's more talented Mum is singing backing vocals, along with her niece Dee Dee Warwick (Dionne's talented sister) and Sylvia Shemwell. |

In breaking news, you may all put down your black texta and put your old vinyls of "IV" back in their sleeves - the writing credit for "Stairway to Heaven" is not going to be amended (this time).
Whilst the jury reached the obviously correct conclusion (I previously posted my view that there was nothing novel about the opening passages that was capable of copyright and I see that seems to have been the defence's primary closing submission), I do marvel at the lunacy of having musical copyright decisions made by a jury. Imagine the uproar if questions about scientific matters (eg, whether or not the earth is flat, how old the universe is etc etc) were left to be determined by asking 12 people brought in from the street (in the knowledge that if any of them actually knew anything about the subject, they'd have to be replaced by someone who didn't)! |

A friend of mine's son in his new band called "The Melting Caps"
More NSW related & possibly how 25 years olds feel about politics in some respects - more NSW related but pretty good I thought.

The song of the 1966 British summer.
Two World Wars and One World Cup.
And The Kinks, with one of Ray Davies' most atmospheric songs.
"It was [5]0 years ago today ...."

Better a jury than these dime-a-dozen DICKHEAD magistrates clogging up precious courtroom oxygen, like turds clog up your s-bend.

It's just criminal IMHO how damn under-rated Ray Davies is.
For goodness sakes Ma'am, give 'im a bloody knighthood!

PS: As for Zep, I just love The Rover. But, as much as I love them, the more I listen to The Who, the less I listen to Zep.

For some unknown reason, I had a post deleted on here before the Zeps decision that asked people to look at an acoustic version of 'Carolan's Dream' on youtube, written almost 300 years ago. [I don't know how to post links, if someone wants to do it for me, go for it], but this where the tune came from. |

For another great keys player other than the ubiquitous Nicky Hopkins, here's Ian McLagan with some Scottish lad on vox:
