Iron of the Beast? I suppose even Beasts need smartly-pressed chinos. I
cannot see the point of Iron Maiden. I just can't connect with that shrill
falsetto nonsense. All sounds like Saxon to me, and I always thought that
spandex trousers on brickies from Solihull were something of a faux pas. Rob
Halford coming out was a surprise, though.

Had someone in the back of my cab* extolling the virtues of Mr Lee Roth's
Diamond Dave abomination. Where do you start?

Will admit to an extensive King Crimson collection, however, but I'm a
guitarist, so that's to be expected.

True story: My friend Pat just went on a trip to Bollivia --- of all places
-- and managed to catch Paul Di'anno playing live. Somewhat tragically, he
now plays for  `Maiden tribute band called "Iron of the Beast" (what does
that even mean?) and they're HUGE IN BOLIVIA!
