Notes de l’épisode
Legendary Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain shares stories from his new memoir, Hello Boys and Girls, his book tour, and 42 years behind the drum kit for Iron Maiden! Nicko reveals the emotional conversation with Steve Harris that led to his retirement, how his stroke affected his drumming, why he gave replacement drummer Simon Dawson his blessing, and what he misses most about being onstage with Maiden. He shares the story of joining the band, the drum intro to "Where Eagles Dare" that Steve Harris kept rejecting, and what it was really like keeping up with Steve's bass playing! Plus, why he was furious when Bruce Dickinson quit Iron Maiden, the conversation they had when Bruce returned, what he remembers about the Blaze Bayley years, and why the band's reunion took them to even greater heights. Nicko also talks about the making of “Piece of Mind,” his favorite Iron Maiden album, the childhood moment that inspired him to become a drummer, and the Maiden songs he loved playing most!
