Plenty of time between Melbourne and Sydney to go for a short detour to LA with the screen saver background on a USB stick! If it's too tight to rehearse, they can even "re-imagine" the infamous 1986 German TV-performance of Wasted Years!

As Bruce likes to put it, it surely is complete bollocks but interesting nonetheless. As already said, they are inducted in the Performers category which is voted among 1200+ individuals. The fan vote only represents one ballot. I don't know if that makes a difference for the band and how they...

A really nice segment with Mariner. I'm getting more and more interested in this...

Now let's go full circle and do a feature film on one of those articles!

Who let the bot in?

If Nicko is at Knebworth, it's not because it's "near him" (Nicko lives in Florida).

It DOES feel strange even in the trailer not having cuts of band memebers talking. If the whole docu is like that, well.. It's going to be very strange indeed.

A few pages back, I tried to elaborate what "Burning ambition" could really mean in a broader cultural perspective if you want to portray a band that's been doing it for more than 50 years, but this trailer pretty much gives it all away: it's the story of Iron Maiden (again). You won't be...

It's the Red, but also the Black.

It's not just swapping out one or two different songs for band to rehearse. The stage production needs to change with the whole flat screen TV and the Power Point presentation. I don't know when they did this interview but if there are any changes, it would have been decided already. Not that...

This is what I'm trying to say: Anvil - The Story of Anvil: A story about lifelong friendship, passion, and the resilience of the underdog. About holding onto a dream long after the world has stopped listening. Some Kind of Monster: A study of the existential reality that unfolds when success...

I don't know much about the director (Malcolm Venville) and if he has an angle or scope that he wants to explore, but the title "Burning Ambition" does at least give some room for this film being a documentary with an actual topic. A phenomena that is being represented with IM as the subject...

With this latest statement, I'm more optimistic about the future too. Why would they even offer the idea of further tours "until at least 2028" if there wasn't a chance of that happening? They have obviously not decided, and there's still a possibilty there won't be any more shows if age shows...

Original press release: You know what would have helped with that? An actual trailer from the freaking documentary! If you wanted to get the hype going with this kind of announcement, actual footage is a no-brainer. I'm getting a little worried that this won't be much different from the History...

Would it hurt to have a minute and a half of actual film footage? I could even settle for 45 secs.
