Title: GNR/Iron Maiden Post by: GNR4LIFEJD on March 31, 2023, 04:11:29 PM I don't post many topics here but seeing the combo of GNR & Iron Maiden the same night at Power Trip had me thinking what songs in a fantasy booking situation like to see the other band cover. For Example Id love to see GNR do a cover of Fear of the Dark and Iron Maiden do a cover of Civil War I know alot of maiden songs have to do with historical events such as war times and think that would be a cool one of Iron maiden to do. Others thoughts? I also picture Axl singing Run to the Hills.

Title: Re: GNR/Iron Maiden Post by: jarmo on April 01, 2023, 06:56:11 AM That's an interesting question. The musical styles of the bands are quite different. At least they sound different to me.
So it's hard to come up with songs. :hihi: /jarmo Title: Re: GNR/Iron Maiden Post by: rebelhipi on April 01, 2023, 07:53:02 AM I want Iron Maiden to do Absurd.

So it's hard to come up with songs. :hihi: /jarmo I definitely agree 2 different styles. I should have prefaced my original comment to state that these are 2 of my fav bands and obviously there is a history with GNR/Maiden maybe not the best based on the stories from back then. I mean you have seen Axl cover slither & black hole sun so this was just a for fun topic I don't see an Axl/Bruce collaboration happening anytime soon lol. Title: Re: GNR/Iron Maiden Post by: Oliver on April 03, 2023, 01:23:25 PM I could see GNR doing something form the first two Maiden albums with their punkish sound. Or Maybe "Be Quick or Be Dead", it has a "Right Next Door to Hell" - "Perfect Crime" feel.
