Listen to this, I’m not sure if I’ll like the new power metal singer on this, but maybe sometimes …

Maiden is good with Diano and Dickinson, this Blaze Bayley don’t fit …

Personally, I'm quite fond of the two Blaze albums, I wouldn't call them classic Maiden albums, but some good tunes on there.  His voice was decent enough but he tried to follow an enormously popular singer and Maidens popularity plummeted (I vaguely recall them back to playing 2000 - 3000 capacity venues in the UK) so it's no surprise that Maiden got back with Bruce...

True story - both Paul and Blaze played a club just two minutes away from where I was living at the time in their post-Maiden years.  Both played cracking good shows and were both lovely guys when I hung around to meet them afterwards, they chatted to anyone who wanted to meet them and signed many autographs and posed for many pictures.  I said to Paul that his Maiden albums were my favourites and it still makes me laugh the way he said 'aw, you soppy c**t' and gave me a pat on the back that nearly knocked me over...  ;D

Nice story … I like personal contact to bandmembers … for this reason I love the Hardcore scene … in my hometown we have some people who organized many very good Hardcore gigs in the last years
with bands like Sick of it all, Yuppicide, Walls of Jericho, Ignite, Angelic Upstarts, Dog Eat Dog, Terror and many more … often talked and laughed with the bands. The often play in a very small club placed in a 300 year old house — the stage is on normal level, so you are with the band … it is so personal, just unique … Hardcore community is like a family — just as NMA …
This year — just one gig in februar, than …
I hope, that the club will survive these months of being closed … live music is so important!

Yes... one of the things I love about NMA is that they often play much smaller clubs than they usually do, in the UK anyway.  They played a great gig in Bilston a couple of years ago, the only venue I've ever been to that you had to access via the kebab house next door!   ;D

Anyway, back to the original point of the thread - Catherine Wheel, Happy Days.

And me, I`ve got a black place in my heart
Still got this hole in me
Perhaps - I am the master of nothing?

The video made me smile. I do like their sense of humour and their integrity. The song sounds like a standard Levellers track to me. It did make look up the other new songs, though. They sound good. I might give the new album a shot. Thanks for sharing.

Here is the link to the video for those too lazy to look for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-XdYdVXTvI

Only 5 Minutes of Therapy? this night, but some TBA the next days, so there is a rest of  hope ....
And me, I`ve got a black place in my heart
