glenn says on 13/May/08
danimal-email me the site.celebink@yahoo.com.i could always go over someones house and do it.thanks.as for somewhere,alexander the great and the title track are my favorites.heaven can wait can be dreadful.and they play it still live as we write this.

Danimal says on 13/May/08
Some brilliant moments on Somewhere in Time. My fav. off that album has to be The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner. BTW Glenn, just got hold of 3 Avatar bootlegs from 1981. MY GOD, Savatage were even killer back then and they were just kids, playing outside of a 7-11 in Cleveland Ohio!! I know you don't have the net, but if you did Glenn, I could guide you to this SICK site, where there are 1000's of bootlegs of ALL your fav, bands and they are all free!!!!!!

somewhere in time has its moments.but a let down compared to their past.guitar synths ruined turbo by priest though.that went too far.the title track was interesting.

Saphientthium says on 12/May/08
When I was an adolescent I was crazy to know his true height. When I grew up (in mind, not in height, for the simple reason: I was an adolescent with an adult height, because my family develops quickly in height. My brother is 6'2" since about 16 years old, I became almost 5' 10" at the same age and I had almost an young adult appearance at this age) and became open-minded, differently from that narrow-minded and imature adolescent, I became convicted than for me Dickinson's height doesn't matter. What matters is his SILVER VOICE.

RisingForceYJM says on 26/Apr/08
Glenn I also love Somewhere In Time. They managed to be creative with the synths instead of just using them to be more commercial. It really gave the harmonies a new sound too. I was hooked from the minute I heard the intro to Caught Somewhere In Time. Adrian Smith's guitar solos also were their best on that album such as on Wasted Years and Stranger In A Strange Land.

glenn says on 18/Apr/08
bull-i listen to all that stuff too you mentioned at the end.halford is around 6ft.can look 5-11 with bad posture.im 36 and been listening to metal since i was 11 in 1983.

Bull says on 17/Apr/08
yeah Glenn, the last good album from priest was painkiller...i canīt believe itīs 18 years old..iīve been listening to that album a lot in my car lately for some reason...same thing with sad wings of destiny...and youīre right about "number of the beast"...but itīs still a great album. How tall is Halford ??? and how old are you Glenn ? cause iīm 31 and started listening to bands like priest and maiden when I was 9, but lately iīve been digging my old metal cdīs a lot....iīm talkinīabout bands like venom, overkill, mortal sin and bands like that...greatest music ever !

Johnny says on 7/Apr/08
I met Bruce in NYC when he first joined Maiden and I was in my very early 20's and working at a record store in Grand Central Station and he came in.He is around 5'5" as I am almost 5'7" and he seemed "short" to me.Angus Young is also short and "super skinny" !!!

Bill says on 19/Feb/08
Sorry, I only read now the tons of coments about your boots...

Bill says on 19/Feb/08
Oh, and Gleen, I want you to be sincere with me, I am a legit 5'9" (175cm) in the morning, and at night i go down to exactly 5'8"(173cm). You say that you are 5'8", and you mean that in the mornig, or that's your height during the day? I really want to know so I can put myself in your place in this picture and see how I would look next to this guys. Thanks a lot man!

glenn says on 12/Feb/08
i knew paul once.he lived in new york city for 6 months or a year.i had his # too.imagine,me taking a piss in bathroom club at the age of 18 and my favorite singer is standing near me.awkward.i was shocked cause i thought he was a recluse in london! he was 5-11 or 6ft.

madien says on 11/Feb/08
Glenn, have you ever met Paul Di'Anno? I just read his book, The Beast, he's a self-confessed lunatic! Great singer though!

Rohan says on 2/Feb/08
saw them yesterday in Bombay....he seemed no more than 169cm...

glenn says on 10/Jan/08
somewhere i loved when i was a kid.alot hate that album.that was a weird time when everyone went glam or used keyboards or in maidens and priests case,guitars synths.at least maiden did it tasteful.priest did invent new great ideas on turbo,but overall it backfired cause of bad songwriting.i hated when maiden did the whole new album when i went.maybe ill dig out the album and give it a another spin.

Andrei says on 9/Jan/08
saw him in a gig in London just over a year ago, i'm 5'8 and i was definitely taller than him so 5.6 or just below is about right. Still however tall/short he is, easi;y one of the best singers ever.

and Glenn, as for A Matter Of Life And Death being one of their worst albums, I thought that when I first heard it and didn't like it for months, then suddenly the whole thing clicked and I now think it's one of their best. When I saw them play the whole album on their last tour it was just incredible. My favourite Maiden albums gotta be Somewhere In Time though, it's always been my favourite, just does things for me that the other albums don't.

glenn says on 18/Oct/07
sound a little high,but maybe.my friend got the photo with on the beast tour lucky him.seemed 6ft in the photo.

Daniel says on 17/Oct/07
Maiden's ex-drummer Clive Burr seems to be much taller than the rest. I figure 6'1'' to 6'3''. What do you think, Glenn?

natalya says on 27/Sep/07
wow, i always thought, Bruce is taller!
actually, doesn`t matter is he 5`6 or 6`0, he most beatiful man and person. his figure is still far beyond compare!!!

glenn says on 27/Sep/07
a least 1.5.not much more.big and ugly.thats all.

spi says on 26/Sep/07
glenn i think the shoes u re wearing to this foto gives u 2 inches at least..

glenn says on 9/Sep/07
it wasnt him.he is 5-6.approaching someone in that situation isnt great.next time wait outside.and yes,he can be a dick.

George says on 8/Sep/07
I'm a big fan of Iron Maider.I was working out at a local gym in North Hollywood when I couldn't believe I saw Bruce on a stairmaster so I aproached him, not crazy or anything, not believing it was him I asked him but he denied it was him, well, maybe it was sombody who looked like him, later a gym trainer confirmed to me he was in fact Bruce. I thought to myself what a jerk he was with one of his biggest fans. He looked to me about the same height as I am 5'7"

Reminidi says on 1/Sep/07
always thought Harry was in the 5-6 to 5-7 range, and nicko looks abot 511??

Thrashman says on 1/Jun/07
hahahaha Franco boy u are wrong there. Harris is no more than 5'8

Kev says on 11/Apr/07
Based on this, Nicko looks about 5'11 max. not exactly a huge band in size, but christ almighty are they huge in a musical sense

sie says on 5/Apr/07
nice photograph. I wish I saw them and had a picture of them like you

glenn says on 4/Apr/07
dianno could be 5-11.

D. Ray Morton says on 3/Apr/07
I would've said 5'11"-6". He was always quite a bit taller than everyone else, except for Rod, who had to have been around 6'2" or more. Height aside, I'll say this: Di'Anno was one hell of a cool cat back in the day. Ever seen that old black and white footage of Di'Anno and Co. tearing it up in 1980? The lad was practically Elvis.

Live +One is great, btw.

Anonymous says on 3/Apr/07
dude, Live+one EP released only in Japan and in 1984 in Greece with 5 extra tracks, so yeah i'd definetely go to Japan to get it. Its pretty much like the soundhouse tapes with a few differences. Sorry Editor Rob =D

glenn says on 3/Apr/07
paul dianno is 6ft.

glenn says on 3/Apr/07
i never said technically he was the best.i know all the bands you mentioned and have all their cds.there are many great singers out there.that isnt my point.halford and dio are technically better than dianno.my point is the sound of diannos voice was the coolest and to me represented metal best.alot have agreed.halford is for sure as close.steve harris is the king of bass and the metal live concert look.but there are other great bass players.no ignorance here pal.like i said,im a music expert and a metal expert.you cant know my knowledge.im not good with band member names,but im good with owning many,many metal genres. i own everything maiden has put out on vinyl.rare ones too.do you own live +one? i doubt you do.rob,since you love this subject so much,i noticed you had terraplane up on your myspace.i love them.are you still on myspace?

glenn says on 2/Apr/07
d-ray- i think nicko was 6ft peak.i just approached him and he told me too fuck off.if i was older and stronger like now,id challenge him to a fight.has been a dick on numerous occasions to people.alot nicer now.

glenn says on 2/Apr/07
and no,judas priest isnt going strong.the last 3 cds sucked horribley and everyone i know agrees with me.they even sucked live with halford 2,3 years ago.they were better live with ripper.hopefully the new cd will be good.hopefully itll be a double.amazing.im getting lectured on metal from a kid.priest hasnt been good since 1991.

glenn says on 2/Apr/07
in fact i just realised that you got into them a year after the reunion.this whole thing is ridiculous.and you wanna lecture me? please.you dont hold a candle to me.if the shoe was on the other foot,i wouldve shut up and showed you respect.or admitted i shouldnt speak.

glenn says on 2/Apr/07
number of the beast is overated.a good,maybe great album yes,but killers and piece of mind blows it away in song writing and sound.everyone will say beast.thats a corny answer.thats like led zeppelin 4,dark side of the moon,paranoid,biggest sellers,not really their best.only cause radio latched on to certain songs and the general public is too stupid to know otherwise.and too slow to pick out the complex pieces in an album like killers or ummaguma by floyd and physical graffiti by zeppelin.i know my music.i own 10,000 albums and 10,000 cds of all kinds of music and have dealt with fans like you a plenty.you guys cant admit that longevity is knowlege with a group for the most part.24 years a maiden fan and the less im becoming one.they are becoming a joke.real
fans see this.new fans get insulted and want to fit in.no offence,a maiden fan you might be and a perhaps an intelligent one,but 7 years doesnt qualify you an expert.i almost saw them on the powerslave tour,1985.finally saw them 20 years ago today actually.and met nearly every member since 1990.bruce is great,no doubt.but paul dianno was the greatest heavy metal singer of all time to me and many old timers.he had a more sinister,dirty voice and sung a touching ballad or 2.underated.number of the beast came out right in time for their explosion,which was bound to happen.yes,dianno had to go for sucsess purposes.otherwise they mightve caved in by the 3rd or 4th album.shame.the album cover of beast is what sold them.their sleeves in general helped.believe me.before the music.this isnt the chris that was always here,are you?.

Chris says on 1/Apr/07
i've only been listening to them for 7 years and heard all their albums, and yes here goes the top 5. 5.brave new world 4. seventh son of a seventh son 3. somewhere in time 2. powerslave 1. number of the beast. hardcore fans are in no way different than newer fans just cause they've been listening to them since the 80's has no meaning to Maiden , proof is they are still around today making records and touring the world. Paul Dianno is in no way the king. Bruce is! No prayer for the dying is till a great record even though the sound changes from seventh son. it goes into a more hard rock direction keeping the melody and the metal. fear of the dark is great too. See i appreciate music for what it is and have respect for the band. i don't care if the music might change a little bit. its still maiden and thats what counts. Can't say the same about Metallica who were eaten alive by greed and it shows the crap that they've become. Judas Priest is still going pretty strong too.

D. Ray Morton says on 1/Apr/07
My top five Maiden albums would be the first five. "Seventh Son" is great, too. And "Maiden Japan." Beyond that...whatever.

Nicko seemed pretty tall when I met him - 6'+ - but then, I don't remember the footwear. So I could definitely buy 6' and maybe even 5'11".

"nicko cursed me out when i was 19."

"Mission From 'Arry"-style?

glenn says on 1/Apr/07
sorry chris.me and longtime maiden fans dont agree.ive been listening to them since 1983.their best and most real hardcore maiden fans will agree are killers,iron maiden,piece of mind,powerslave and seventh son.the worst are virtual x1,no prayer,a matter of life and death.surprise near masterpiece is x-factor.brad nicko cursed me out when i was 19.so you have to see these people repeatdly to know.he is calmer now.bruce can be the worst.and on rare occasion,he can blow you away with how nice he is.steve is always the same.never talks much,but signs away and poses forever.long live paul dianno.he is the king! up the irons!

Brad says on 1/Apr/07
I'm more shocked about this photo than any other on this site....I tower over Nikko or whatever his name is every year at NAMM in Anaheim and I'm looking at the rest. That's amazing! I remember the drummer had the strangest nose I've ever seen...sorta flat. Really nice guy.

Chris says on 31/Mar/07
glenn Brave New World is among Maiden's top 5 albums without a doubt.

glenn says on 8/Mar/07
the drummer is 5-11,6ft.

Brad says on 7/Mar/07
God lord that's a short bunch. I'd run into the drummer at NAMM and he was kinda short and he's taller than the rest. Oh man that's funny, I never realized Bruce was that short! Wow!!!! Good camera work on the videos & concert film Eddie! Bruce can't be more than 5' 5"!!

Nikhil says on 1/Mar/07
Height no bounds. Maiden is the best. No band of this sort can be born again. They are the most super band. Up the Irons!!!

Julie says on 28/Feb/07
The greatest singer ever doesn't need to be taller then 168cm.
He's a special man.

Anonymous says on 27/Feb/07
Bruce is about 5'4 He's about Ronnie James Dio's height. Look at the picture of the band in the Number Of The Beast remaster cd booklet.

don says on 12/Feb/07
small man, big voice

jason says on 28/Jan/07
the pic is no good, glenn is standing straight in the back of the pic and bruce is leaning, a bit closer to the camera, and he ground loocks like its leaning,and glenn stands where its heigher then where bruce stands, and glenn what about youre foot-wear? they lock like huge lifts, at least a couple of inches, if you compare glenns footwear with the others glenns locks most suspicious, and there is not a 5 cm difference between glenn and bruce in the pic even tho glenn have everything on hes side,bruce locks atleast 170 cm tall, and glenn are those the kind of footwear you use when you take youre pics with celebs, if you are, that gives you an advantage that isent fare, and in that case its harder to reveal the true height of the celebs. (dont mean to be mean or anything)thanks!

I agree Drozer.

Bruce used to be a fencer and I met him at a competition where I also fenced. I'm 6'3" and towered over him. I would say he stands about 5'5.5"

Danimal says on 27/Oct/06
Thanks G.!!! I'm still going to give you a heads up when I come to town!

Glenn says on 27/Oct/06
Yeah,I WAS a big fan.ironically,Im listening to Mindcrime 2 now.I NEVER listen to them.Tribe was one of the worst cds ever.Mindcrime 1,Ill throw up if I hear,its so played out.I used to hate those late 90s cds,but now I love them.most hardcore old fans name Rage For Oder as the best.same here.I bought it day of release,July 14th 1986.same for Warning.I kinda liked Mindcrime 2.not great,but not bad.some midgets in that band.Ill post one day.

Danimal says on 26/Oct/06
Glenn, were you ever a fan of Queensryche? If so, which albums did you like best of their? Any pics of you and them?

Those are steel toe boots by the way.

Hey D.how ya been?.Geoff is 5-9.

Danimal says on 25/Oct/06
Glenn, how tall is Geoff Tate of Queensryche?

Glenn says on 25/Oct/06
Yeah.its lifts.

Matt says on 25/Oct/06
Glenn is wearing some huge shoes in this picture. Are his shoes always that huge?

Anonymous says on 23/Oct/06
Hard to tell Bruce's shoes look bigger than Glenn's and they are standing far apart.

Danimal says on 19/Oct/06
5'3"-5'4"? Come one man. Be realistic. Do you see 4-5" there between him and Glenn?

Glenn says on 18/Oct/06
He claimed 5-6.5 in a interveiw I read.I say 5-5.

Anonymous says on 17/Oct/06
No way is Bruce 5'6. 5'5 max probably closer to 5'3-5'4.

Danimal says on 4/Oct/06
New Maiden CD is horrible. They've lost their entire edge and Bruce has the most monotone voice nowadays. The songs are too long, too boring and not one classic on their. Major disappointment.

Glenn says on 8/Sep/06
I like it.dont love it.Mercenary,Out of the silent planet my faves.

chris says on 7/Sep/06
nooo i love Brave New World ..songs like Ghost of the navigator, out of the silent planet,blood brothers,the wicker man..

D. Ray Morton says on 7/Sep/06
"new maiden cd came out today"

Didn't do anything for me, sorry to say. It's cool that they're still plugging away, but they lost me a long time ago. Still love their first few albums, though. And I must say that I saw a recent live clip of "Remember Tomorrow" and Bruce did sound pretty damn good.

Glenn says on 7/Sep/06
I think I agree on the cds.Brave was too polished and boring.

Glenn says on 6/Sep/06
Europe gets everything 2 days to 2 weeks early.cd is ok.same old,same old.I guess maybe a hair better than the last 2.

dang..! bruce bruce is kinda short..if im not mistaken he was wearing boots that day too..i have an Iron Maiden magazine probably shot on that same day too..they were wearing the same clothes..isnt this pic from like 2001?

D. Ray Morton says on 12/Jul/06
Hey Glenn, this is a bit off-topic, but I just got a Samson demo with Bruce from '79. He was killin' back then! I've been looking for a halfway decent-sounding copy of his Maiden audition tape (the one with "Twilight Zone")...do you know about this one?

Glenn says on 11/Jun/06
2 inches.they are just bulky looking.

Jack says on 10/Jun/06
Glenn, I believe you that your 5'8. But those shoes must have given you about 3 inches!

Glenn says on 28/May/06
Bruce told me once 5-6.5.looks more 5-5 to me.

L. says on 26/May/06
5'6 sounds about right for Bruce Dickenson.It's just that compared to the other guys he looks alot shorter then even that.

Glenn says on 29/Apr/06
Blaze is 5-6.I dont think RAGE ever played here.if they did,then it was 80s.I LOVE RAGE.RIPPER was listed at 5-10,and could look it.I also have group photo with the 1998 lineup of ICED EARTH and in 2004 had my photo with RIPPER and SCHAFFER.he is at least 6ft,maybe 6-1.

D. Ray Morton says on 28/Apr/06
Terrana is 5'7", 5'7.5".

Tim is 5'9 without boots?
Matt Barlow is the best vocalist of 90's.
what is the height of jon schaffer,matt barlow, mike terrana(rage) and victor smolsky (rage)?
thanks

trueheight says on 6/Apr/06
Tim's about 5'9 but wears boots so I can't be sure, saw him onstage w/ Iced Earth back in '04. His voice is unbelievable but Matt Barlow will always be the best IE vocalist

what is the height of blaze bayley and tim "ripper" owens"?
goodbye

Glenn says on 31/Mar/06
Nicko is the tallest at5-11.5.Janick at 5-10.harris,murray,and smith all around 5-8.Ive read 5-6.5 on Bruce.he is 5-5.I swear.oh DR.RAY,I love SAMSON too!

Priest says on 30/Mar/06
what is height of all members of iron maiden?

Anne says on 10/Feb/06
I remember reading an interview where Bruce said that he is "only" 5'7 and how people usually think he is taller... but maybe I am imagining this. It seems accurate though.

D. Ray Morton says on 5/Feb/06
Bruce has always appeared slightly elfin in stature, so 5'5" wouldn't surprise me. An unbelievable singer back around '81-'82, but lost his voice within a couple of tours. He was great with Samson.

The only one I've met of the lot is Nick McBrain. Nice enough - though uncharacteristically reserved - and tall. Around 6'1".

Murray, Smith, and 'Arry seem a bit shorter here than I thought. I was under the impression that Steve, in particular, was closer to 5'10". And, of course, Rod Smallwood always dwarfed all of them, even Nicko.

Great picture.

Glenn says on 4/Feb/06
he's one the worst.huge fan.but he's usually rude.

trueheight says on 29/Jan/06
glenn is the man, i'd give anything to meet bruce

Glenn says on 25/Jan/06
yes,funny looking shoes.nothing else.

trueheight says on 24/Jan/06
Never met the guy but i have all the Maiden DVDs. I think he is a strong 5'7. Doesn't Glenn's boots look a little bulky?

Danimal says on 21/Jan/06
5'6" looks about right to me. I'm surprised no one else is commenting on Glenn's pics? For once we have a legitimate guy stacked up to like a 100 superstars already and isn't this why we are all here on this site in the first place? I know that's why I am here! Keep them coming Glenn ;).
