How the hell does he play those brilliant triplets, with just two fingers, at a blistering pace... and through a whole gig!

does he have some super android fingers that Eddie gave to him?

could he lift 500 pounds with his first two fingers on his right hand?

Maybe we'll never know....[/quote]

What bass is he using there?

Judging by the head, I'd say it was an Ibanez Roadster.

Interestingly, 'Speedy Harris' from Hi-On Maiden uses exactly the same right hand technique as Steve

Having seen both Maiden and their tribute cousins live, I can honestly say that Speedy has got Steve's sound nailed. Must be that technique.

After seeing the man himself fairly close up last night :huh: I can confirm he uses two fingers and his fingernails (the latter quite alot... and the former even more :huh:) but i saw no evidence of chalk :)

Who else was there? How awesome was Mummy Eddie? :huh:
