Nicko McBrain – drums (1983-present)\nMichael Henry McBrain (born June 5, 1952 in Hackney, London, England) is the drummer for heavy metal band Iron Maiden. The nickname "Nicko" is from Michael’s childhood, where his favourite stuffed animal was named ‘Nicholas the bear’ – which he apparently carried everywhere. Due to this, his parents called him ‘Nicky’. “Nicko” was spawned when Michael was meeting a manager from CBS Records, with the keyboard player Billy Day. Billy introduced him as ‘My Italian drummer – His name’s “Neeko”’. Michael liked the moniker, so he decided to use it as a stage name, having first adapted the spelling slightly.\nIn the 1970s, he appeared on some Pat Travers albums, and also played for Streetwalkers from 1975 to 1976; he also appeared in the band McKitty in the early 1980s. It was during a McKitty gig in Belgium that he first met Iron Maiden bassist Steve Harris. He joined Iron Maiden in 1983 for the Piece of Mind album, replacing Clive Burr, after his previous band Trust had supported Iron Maiden on the road during 1982. He has been with Iron Maiden ever since.\nHe has been cited as a major influence of many modern drummers over a wide range of styles, and often holds drum clinics for fans and would-be drummers alike.\nStrangely, unlike most heavy metal drummers, McBrain has refused to use a double bass drum, since he considers it to be "too complicated", and "un-drummerish". Instead, he has developed an incredibly fast technique on the single bass drum, following Steve Harris' gallops with no problem whatsoever. The first (and last) song Nicko McBrain recorded using a double bass drum was "Face in the Sand," on the Dance of Death album, 2003. As Nicko could not grasp the technique of the double bass pedal, the track ended up being pro tooled. One of his feet was going faster than the other. He subsequently announced publicly that it had been one of the hardest things he had ever had to play and that, for that reason, the number would not be included in the track list of the Dance of Death World Tour. On this album Nicko McBrain also contributed, for the first time in Iron Maiden history, to the songwriting, writing the bass line for the song "New Frontier."\nHe has filmed several short videos for Iron Maiden fans on the band's official website and keeps a diary of the band's latest tours. These diarys reveal his endearing, wacky sense of humour and also his immense affection for his fans - often referred to as "Boys and Girls" or "Kids", told to "take care" and wished "God bless".\nNicko was converted to Christianity mid-2000 (?) after an experience in the Spanish River Church, near his Boca Raton, Florida home. His wife Rebecca, a Christian, had been praying for him, and on entering the Church Nicko found himself crying as he experienced a "calling". Recounting the tale, he said: "I just sat there thinking, 'I didn't drink last night…why can't I stand?'" "I had this love affair with Jesus going on in my heart."\nOutside of Iron Maiden, Nicko is a keen golfer and continues to play live during Maiden downtime both in his drum clinics and his McBrain Damage band.

Are you asking about Black Sabbath's "Iron Man" or the Marvel comic book superhero Tony Stark who is Iron Man?  Regardless, I happen to really enjoy both.  It's not my favorite Sabbath song, but I do like it considering they are my favorite band.  Tony Stark, billionaire playboy that he is, especially in recent story arcs is fantastic.

Woo hoo!! Do you know how long I have been on here waiting for someone to ask a question about Jarvis or Pulp? I thought I was the only one who liked them anymore. Anyway, he had a parody band called Relaxed Muscle with Richard Hawley but they used the aliases 'Darren Spooner' (jarvis) and 'Wayne Marsden' (Richard). They had an ep & an album but I don't know that they'll do anything else. As far as I know Pulp still plan to return eventually. I hope so anyway.

Good evening, Ireland calling...\n\nRonan here, im diggin the new album, although i have to say that i wasnt too sure about the almost electonic-ish edge to some of the songs, however, i have listened to it numerous times now and i have very much warmed to it.  Ive always admired their pioneering low end sound and if you got a good sound system there is no better band to listen to in my mind, the crunchy chalky low end is just awesome and gets into every part of you.\n\nIn "Coming Undone" i really like the Queen - Rock You" beat thats in there.  Can you imagine that with 6000 people booming along with them?  Stomp stomp clap, stomp stomp clap...  Awesome...  And in "Getting Off", 10 seconds into the song, have you ever HEARD something so low and powerful as Fieldys bass?  Awesome squared!\n\nI have to say that im slightly biased in favour of them because they are my favourite band anyway, but thats fine i reckon.  Cant wait to hear some of the new album here in Ireland in 2006, bring it on!  Are you ready?
