Magazine Number 99.5 - iron maiden FC arrived last week

Dahbis raya ke belum korang? 

The uniquely numbered 99.5 (the awaited 100th issue is delayed due to many unknown factors such as Bruce's Cancer) magazine arrived last week.
I am Only able to read it last night.
I think the 100th edition of the magazine have to be tremendously awesome as 99.5 is very very good.

56 full colour pages.
lots of interesting stuffs...
some of them are
- 16 PAGES detailed interviews and photos with Dave Murray and his tech Colin Price.
Simply an interesting read from start to finish about everything.
- 8 PAGES detailed interviews with Tony Newton on his hunts for the original master tapes of Maiden albums (and he mentioned Martin Birch so they are still keeping in touch I guess), and how he go about doing the Itunes Mastering, (and its really amazing stories he have to tell during his 6 month focus on this task, the couriers, the abbey roads, the ntsc, pal, betamax stories and Steve Harris reactions)  and also his day to day job as a Maiden crew, and the very interesting part of him doing the sound for the Rock Am Ring tv broadcast that Maiden dont even soundcheck themselves and he using a mixing board he had not even heard of and also about day to day recordings of every Maiden shows for archieves and how he and Steve actually picked some shows for future usage.

Just these two are simply amazing articles.

Also the rest, love the Bruce message on his health issues, and his photos with the special charities, the heavy metal Truants Download Fest bicycle rides, I thought 2013 was the only one as Maiden headline Donington but seems its yearly with Rod and gang.
Also Trooper sponsoring a superbike stories
and two pages on Loopy, one of original Killer Crew.
and also seems Laz are lucky to listen to the new album already and seems its going to be very good LOL!!.


and lots of other things... This is an awesome edition, really. So 100th issue must be really fantastic to overtake this one.

But one photo really stand out, Steve Harris in the studio and whats that??

Its the Maiden Audio Headphones by ONKYO. Seems Steve Harris is already personally testing them...

I WANT! I WANT!! I WANT!!!!
(and the Queen song I want it All is in my head now LOL!!)




OK these are some other tiny tiny bits of the contents...

Selamat hari raya deaf...

The Book Of Souls nanti ko ambik versi mana?...yang 3 lp tu ker?...

deaf-angel said...

Book of Soul
aku akan pilih yang dalam bentuk buku tu
dan jugak..
aku akan ambik lp dia, seems mastering dan cutting untuk LP ni kali Maiden takes very seriously, dorang pergi carik pakar or something like that, bukan biasa2nye pressing
