Awesome. The stage show was beyond spectacular. Lights, flames, etc. Sound was phenomenal. Ripper was phenomenal. More to follow...

Patience.
Oh man, you mean I'll be reading something after Maiden play Wacken?
I think the world needs to give up on that now. IE in their present line up is as good as it's gonna get.
By the way, Pyramaze material with Barlow will sound....odd. He's too harsh a singer, so I'm curious as to what the new Pyramaze material will sound like.
I don't even have to ask how well "Ten Thousand Strong" went over. I know that is a song meant to be played live in front of, er, 10,000 people. Or more.

I know even understand the knock on Ripper, other than he's not Barlow. It isn't like Jon kicked Matt out. Matt left. Ripper is a phenomenal talent. And even though I'm the biggest Barlow fan boy on the planet, I just don't get why people slag Ripper.
Well, the old material definitely won't sound the same. However, the guy who wrote all the material claims the way he pictured the songs was with much harsher vocals. For a band as small as Pyramaze, they've been able to rope in two amazing singers.

Yeh you're right, i just have a serious gripe against ripper. I have always prefered Barlow's singing to ripper's especially after hearing the new version of the coming curse
uke: But that could come down the Jon mostly i think.

Man, even I am waiting for the pics. They're on someone else's camera and he just got back from his honeymoon.
Right then....

Watch the youtube videos I just posted. If you're a fan of Ripper then there's no doubting he can nail the songs. However, if you simply don't like his style either way, then yeah, there's no hope.
I sometimes feel sorry for Barlow. IMO he's a good vocalist, but he's always having to live in the shadow of others as a "stand in". That said, he's lucky to be where he is anyway, so he can't complain.
