All 3 of them are, but Dave, along with Steve Harris on bass, is the one who carries that rhythm in that band. The other two guys add some power chords to thicken it up and play solos, but Dave's holding it down. Then when takes his solo's, it's next level shit. Guy is crazy good. He's also been in that band longer than anybody but Steve. He seems to not have an ego about it. I've seen them live from the front rows several times, including this last Sept. I never realized it till I got an up close look at what they do. Janick came on when Bruce and Adrian quit in the early '90's, and he stayed on when they came back in 2000 (bye bye Blaze). I get the sense that he's a super sweet guy and they love having him around. He's a fun entertainer to watch. I saw them play that 1st tour back together in 2000. Metal was dead at the time and Maiden forgotten. They played a 3000 person auditorium on the UM campus in Minneapolis.. They had the huge stage, giant Eddie, Bruce's costumes and flags,, etc. It all barely fit in the room. I don't even think it was sold out. /csb
