The Iron Maiden cover of the Beckett song Rainbow's Gold really give the woofers a workout.

Yeah, that's quite a career.

He's earned that retirement. He'll have plenty of time now to spend with his family, and take his daughter to the slaughter.

Saw them 20(?) years ago. As expected, scattered fights broke out on the parking lots, before and after the show, when people brought their daughters to the slaughter and came to pick them up again. I have one particular vivid memory of a young man stomping on the hood of someone's mother's, car still in motion, and the lady immediately exiting the vehicle and pulling the imp away and straight to the ground, taking absolutely no prisoners in the process. For some reason he didn't see that coming, and boy he went down like a sack of potatoes.

:facepalm:

That sounds like quite the dangerous evening! I would definitely not want to bring my daughter to any such slaughter. But if there was another reunion tour then I might bring my niece to The Police.

Talking about reunions, I guess Mercyful Fate would be great for a first date.
 
On the topic of Mister McBrain: Suppose we counted the individual drum hits he has been responsible for throughout his career, do you reckon there has been more snare hits than kicks, or the other way around?
