I can kinda see why the record label forced a change for the "Power of the Night" cover though... that original one is kinda dorky... hahaha

Like to see some more of that collection!!

I will post some more when I get a chance! When I first walk into this house and me and three others walk into his living room and saw the Gutter Ballet painting, I was floored. I went to see some of his Maiden stuff, but when I saw that I was blown away. It looks beautiful hanging in his living room!

I'd kill to get that Savatage stuff.

Incidently, where exactly does this guy live?

One of the walls with me holding a certain stage prop from 1982 used during a certain song about a 3 digit number............. Check out all the stuff on the wall in the background, original paintings and other stuff......

A greatest hits album!!!!!

Diamond head anyone?


Any Led Zepplin fans in the house?

Ever wonder how the Dressed To Kill LP cover was pressed?:

Official Iron Maiden photographer shot:

Awesome!

The sheer diversity of Maiden's fan-base is just awesome.

So those are the original paintings of the Savatage covers? Wow, would have thought Gary Smith or the Oliva boys had kept those themselves.

Needless to say, you're pm'ing me that guys address for an unexpected nightly visit, NOW!

I would have thought that they would be in the Oliva's hands, but they original artist kept them and sold them years later. Don;t know the address, we were blindfolded so we wouldn't know the location LOL!!!!!

My wife and me took a trip to Dublin last week. We saw Bruce Springsteen perform a fantastic three and a half hour show and had a great holiday. I have always wanted to visit Ireland so this was a dream come true. It was awesome to visit Grafton Street where the Phil Lynott is placed, a great tribute to a great man!
We also spent a half day at the Guinness Brewery

nice on all accounts!!

I would love to visit Ireland some day. I love their music, their beer and the country looks beautiful.
