Hehe listening to a 2003 Maiden gig and during Bruce's banter he talks about downloading and cameras and stuff. At one point he tells people not to take photos and says the security guard is coming for them, then laughs and says "fuck it I don't care, take as many as you want". Then he asked about people downloading and when the crowd made a noise he said "You shouldn't download because Metallica don't like it!"
Then he says that if anyone brought in a tape recorder and they want to tape the next song and send it to all their friends, because it's a new song, it's okay! He then says since there is a lot of shit music out there it deserves to be ripped off. But he'd like people to buy the new Maiden if they think it's worthy, however if they don't like it download it because he doesn't give a shit!
Such an entertaining fella

Lol that's really cool. But he might be singing a different tune if he wasn't in one of the biggest bands in the world.Hehe listening to a 2003 Maiden gig and during Bruce's banter he talks about downloading and cameras and stuff.

Actually there isn't as many as I thought. Including the new one there is only 13 official live albums and at least one of them was a studio audience for the BBC.
A quick google tells me that they are miles off the official record. Guinness 2019 says the record is held by the Grateful dead who have 167 since 1969, and 150 of them were released after the band disbanded in 1995. They are all official and not bootlegs or the like. Every album has been released on either LP, cassette, or digitally and there is apparently many other recording that included live recordings that were not counted because they made up compilations etc.

Yeah it is easy to say when you know the album you're telling people to download and share will sell a few million copies anyway.
Although I'm sure he doesn't want his pay packet stolen I do think he's got a more relaxed attitude to it all than certain other musicians, some of whom wouldn't be begging for their next meal.
But what about just metal bands? They must be up there.

I don't know I couldn't get a list of just metal bands. The best I could find was Deep Purple with 39, Hawkwind 29, KISS 12, AC/DC with 10.

With so many incarnations of the band it's probably a 'must do' thing to get a live album out there and see if it sells better than the previous ego...I mean player.
Oh now that's the real question. Which line up's live albums sell the best? Lol I don't expect you to look into this at all.

I would reckon Gillan, Paice, Glover, Lord would be on the biggest sellers. Blackmore would have had a few but he hasn't been in the band for nearly 30 years. Lord would have missed a few since he's been out 17 years. I'm also sure there would be albums with Turner, and Hughes (god forbid hearing one with Hughes), but the main three would have to have the majority and also the biggest sellers.

I never saw the Rollins show. I have collected most of his music over the years and got copies of a lot of his spoken words but the show never came here. He did come to Australia a couple of years ago and did a TV special called Tough Conversations where he drove around the country talking to people, mostly men about the "tough Aussie" stereotype and what it means today.
