Iron Maiden "killers" was a fantastic LP
I think I've always been more of a fan of Paul Di'anno

I started singing this song on a tour bus in Reno once and the beautiful older women on the bus made me sing the whole song! And started clapping!
What makes this country "The Greatest Country in the World!" is we love to make you laugh and sing! "Take that away and your life will SUCK!"
