Bubnjar jednog od najvecih, pa slobodno mogu reci, svetskih bendova, Iron Maiden. Svirao je od njihovog cetvrtog albuma, Piece Of Mind i zadrzao se u bendu do dan danas. Pravo ime mu je, zapravo, Michael Henry McBrain. Iako sam VELIKI fan Maidena i McBraina, ovo sam tek nedavno saznao. :)
Zanimljivo je to da svoje cuvene "galop" deonice postize jednom nogom.

Jedan intervju sa doticnim:

Mozda niste znali ovo ali McBrain je poznat u svetu bubjara kao najbrrza singl bas noga u rock-u :-)! U dosta starih pesama je to i pokazao ali meni je ipak najsveziji primer u glavi pesma Dream Of Mirrors sa Brave New World albuma, srednji deo pesme. Kada su ga pitali zasto nikada (do Dance of Death albuma) nije koristio double bass rekao je "pa tesko mi je bilo da naucim i single da sviram, zamislite koliko bi mi bilo tesko double". Stvarno mnogo postujem ovog coveka jer sam zbog njega i Lars Ulricha i poceo da sviram ovaj prelepi i najlepsi instrument na svetu!!!

Ajde da se malo pohvalim. Posle nastupa na Montreal Drum Festivalu u novembru prosle godine, bio sam pozvan da u "prelaznom roku" predjem iz Vater-a u Vic Firth. Poziv sam prihvatio i postao endorser, a od nedavno je u opticaju poster njihove nove reklamne kampanje na kome je 15ak bubnjara, koji su se nedavno pridruzili Vic Firth familiji, medju kojima je i NMB. S obzirom na to da sam se kao klinac przio na Maidene, cinjenica da sam na istom promotivnom posteru kao i on mi je bas do jaja!

Pozdrav!

Sa Paiste sajta:

Dear boys and girls (to begin with the classic Nicko terms) we have now fully accomplished something that was in our minds quite a while: The new Signature Reflector 22" Bell ride "Powerslave".

Nicko is way more than a regular endorser, he is an ambassador, a true friend, an honest and loving person, a Paiste family member and most of all, a truly very fun guy to be around.

Iron Maiden are now on world tour, flying from city to city with their own plane, named "Ed Force One" which lead singer Bruce Dickinson is flying personally. The plane has been spotted here and there.

Nicko joined Paiste pretty much exactly 28 years ago, when he was touring with the french rock band Trust and later with guitar legend Pat Travers. When he joined Iron Maiden on the "Piece of Mind" album, with some stunning tracks, such as "The Trooper", "Where Eagles Dare" and "Flight of Icarus", he was able to clearly set apart his playing style from a thousand other rock drummers. His sound, his fills and just the groove of this, at the time, rather heavy album, has a lot of bluesy remains, even though the genre was called "Heavy Metal". A classic that wrote Rock History.

Ever since, Nicko was always very conscious about his drums and cymbals. Through this, he gave Paiste a lot of space for the sound of the cymbals being a vast part of the entire "Iron Maiden Sound". Whether it was the Formula 602, Sound Creation (from where his new Ride cymbal was developed from), 2002, RUDE, Signature (which he was also a great part of the development team), the Dimensions or now with the Signature Reflector, he always knew his basics and could always play a show with just about any series and cymbal model that Paiste had to offer. That's why we approached Nicko and wanted to realize a cymbal that truly brand marked his most outstanding playing skill, the ride pattern! On every track, there's a different kind of feel and you can bet you'll hear his hallmarked groove on there at one time. It's just the way he feels and the band Iron Maiden writes songs. Whoever really dove into a show of theirs, will remember bells, gongs and other spherical layers of sound. And that is not something many other bands would the drummer even allow to attempt doing. But with Iron Maiden: It all makes perfect sense and we are happy to be a part of it!

Thanks Nicko for being our ambassador and true friend! This one is for you!
