Darryl Sterdan of the QMI Agency recently conducted an interview with vocalist Bruce Dickinson of British heavy metal legends IRON MAIDEN. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.

Q: What does it mean to put out a 15th album? It can't give you the same thrill as the first one.

Dickinson: Well, it's not really a numbers game. Not for us, anyway. Every album you put out is important because it could be the last one ? especially when you get up to 15. I'd like to think this album would be a great starting point for our next album, or an equally great finishing point if we decide never to make another one. Not that we think of it as our last album. But never say never at this point.

Q: This record has some of your longest and most complex songs. Is that about challenging yourselves? You, in particular, seem like a man who not only likes challenges, but needs them.

Dickinson: Yeah. Without them, I'd get bored very quickly. But I think you have to find what challenges are appropriate. It's like the Clint Eastwood thing: A man's got to know his limitations. Once you know your limitations, then you can exceed them.

Q: Speaking of bringing people in, you literally fly planeloads of fans to and from shows as part of a VIP package. What happens on those flights?

Dickinson: We try and make it special. The flights are all Fight 666 ? that's on the boarding passes and everything. And we make up goodie bags ? you get a hat and Bruce Air sunglasses and flags and all kinds of good things. And the only way you can get this stuff is if you're on the flight. You can't go and buy it on a website. And I dish out signed photographs as well, and I chat to everybody. I come back and take pictures, I hang out with the cabin crew and sign stuff.

Q: "American Idol" needs a new acerbic Brit judge. Interested?

Dickinson: Absolutely not. You couldn't pay me enough to go on that show. I find it a bit sad that people enjoy it. There's another show called "Britain's Got Talent" which is clearly just an exercise in laughing at people's inability. It's sad. Reality TV leaves me completely cold. I couldn't tell you who won any of those shows. I've never watched them for longer than 30 seconds, which is sufficient to go, "I can't believe people sit and watch this shit."

Singer Bruce Dickinson, drummer Nicko McBrain and guitarist Adrian Smith of British heavy metal legends were interviewed for an episode of "Hard" on the AUX music channel out of Canada when the band played in Toronto, Ontario on July 3, 2010. The segment can now be viewed below.

Rod Smallwood, IRON MAIDEN's longtime manager, told The New York Times that more than 800,000 copies of the band's latest album, "The Final Frontier", had been shipped to retailers around the world by the end of August, with the group having sold about 85 million records in its 30-year career.

"A lot of bands could learn a lot from MAIDEN," Smallwood said. "MAIDEN is essentially about the relationship with the fans, and nothing comes between that. They don't want to be rock stars. They just enjoy playing for the fans."

According to David Kassler, chief operating officer of EMI for Europe, digital tracking services showed only small levels of illegal downloading of "The Final Frontier", which is attributable in part to the fact that IRON MAIDEN's songs do not fit the mold of a radio single ? three of them, on the newest release, are more than nine minutes long.

"You'd expect some people to be pirating, but they don't," Kassler told The New York Times. "They want the physical album. They love the artwork, the lyrics. It's something they want to show their friends and family."

I have two spare tickets for Iron Maiden's show at the o2 Arena, next Sunday (4th August).

These are in block 101, just off to the left of the stage, so an excellent view is guaranteed!

Will accept an offer of ?60 for one ticket, or ?115 for both.

Note that these are electronic tickets, so the buyer(s) will need to meet me at the arena as we will need to enter the arena together (the credit card of the original buyer -i.e. me - is needed for entry).

I will accept offers by Private Message up until 1400 on Sunday 4th August.

Thanks for reading.

One of my favorite bands just released a new album and while I was going through their old catalogue I forgot that a few years back they did a cover of Invaders.  They definitely did it 'their' way.  You'll see if you give it a chance Smiley

I'm a big fan of the Paul DiAnno era. Sad that he royally screwed up and got fired.

Surprised no one has mentioned this yet on here. Then again,  this place is much quieter than it used to be....

One of my favorite frontmen, he was more punk than metal and it was a great combination. Not that I don't love Dickinson, it was just a different sound with DiAnno and very unique.

He had health issues last several years but he kept at it. RIP  Cry

Former Iron Maiden Frontman Dies at 66

Paul Di'Anno, who fronted Iron Maiden's first two albums, has died at age 66. The news was confirmed by his label, Conquest Music. An immediate cause wasn't announced.

"Despite being troubled by severe health issues in recent years that restricted him to performing in a wheelchair, Paul continued to entertain his fans around the world, racking up well over 100 shows since 2023," Conquest Music said in an official statement.


Di'Anno's first career retrospective album, titled The Book of the Beast, was issued in September, spotlighting recordings made since leaving Iron Maiden. An upcoming documentary on his life was reportedly in the works with producer Wes Orshoski, who also helmed 2010's Lemmy about Motorhead's late frontman.

"Conquest Music are proud to have had Paul Di'Anno in our artist family," the label added, "and ask his legion of fans to raise a glass in his memory."

Born Paul Andrews on May 17, 1958, in Chingford, East London, Di'Anno sang in several British rock bands as a teen. He joined Iron Maiden in 1977, replacing short-lived former singer Dennis Wilcock, at which point he also adopted the Di'Anno stage name.

With Di'Anno at the helm, Iron Maiden released their self-titled debut album in 1980. Deftly combining metal, punk and progressive rock, Iron Maiden influenced countless bands over the next several decades, while songs like "Iron Maiden," "Sanctuary," "Running Free" and "Phantom of the Opera" became fan favorites and set list staples. Iron Maiden quickly followed up their eponymous debut with 1981's Killers.

Di'Anno's second outing showcased beefier production (courtesy of Martin Birch) and even more labyrinthine song structures. "Murders in the Rue Morgue" and the title track rank as some of the band's earliest and most promising mini-epics, while the urgent, hook-filled "Wrathchild" features one of Di'Anno's most iconic, skyscraping howls — foreshadowing the direction Iron Maiden would take with successor Bruce Dickinson.
