  • The Maiden Fanzone

    Great show for Maiden fans. Less of the deep dive and more of a fanzone air. Focuses on ranking albums and songs, maiden stories from fans, historical background to some of their biggest hits and general banter from the team. Excursions into other bands from time to time such as Ozzy, Kiss and Megadeth.

    Steve is a cool dude that knows his Maiden. Hes joined by some people even cooler. I’ll overlook his fascination with Kiss. Kirsty and Matt are invaluable contributors. The waffle are my favourite episodes
