The four rules of musical instrument safety were not followed here... 1) Always treat your instrument as loaded, 2) Never point your instrument at something you don't wish to destroy, 3) Always be sure of your target and what's beyond it, and 4) Finger off the strings until you've acquired your target.

Bradley S Bruce Dickinson is still one of the greatest metal singers ever, still fronting one of the top metal bands ever. Wolfsbane aren't anywhere near Maiden's status. Now I won't say that Blaze doesn't sing songs written for his voice badly, but he just cannot hack any DiAnno/Dickinson songs to save his life. I have heard him absolutely mangle my all time Maiden favourite song Hallowed Be Thy Name, and it was frankly embarrassing. They guy has absolutely no range.
