That would be something new - a product that no metal band has branded yet, as far as I know. And there aren’t that many of those around these days... Although “Vigor Mortis” itself isn’t exactly original. It’s a book, a game, and even a metal band with a self-titled album...

Bruce really hates breaks and not having any appointments scheduled, doesn't he? The part about the solo album might be interesting. https://comiccon2026.sched.com/event/2QZxA/bruce-dickinsons-the-mandrake-project-year-two

But that's exactly what I asked. Are you planning to initiate this pushback?

So what can we expect now? That you'll start an online petition and present the results to Steve Harris? :D

That’s actually an important point. Sometimes musicians make a fantastic impression in videos they’ve recorded at home, but when they rehearse with the band, they can’t quite pull it off anymore - let alone perform on stage. However, of course, they could have figured all of this out during a...

I've heard this rumor about a special bonus show in London that's supposed to be filmed. But that doesn't make any sense. Why not film in South America instead? I'm just wondering where that rumor comes from, since I just saw that it's mentioned here, too.

However, we'll actually indeed find out which bands are in the first wave of bookings when the advance ticket sales begin.

But I heard from people who were there he also said: "Like James Bond, we will return."

Noooooo! Can someone please discover that there are other reasons for this? He has kids who live in Paris and kids who live in Lyon, and he wants to take them to see Iron Maiden. Maybe a girlfriend who lives in Paris and in Lyon? Please!

No, that's not what I would call a rest. You have no idea when it will resume, or if it will resume at all, and when you're suddenly asked to go back on stage, it's very hard to refocus and put all that behind you.

That answer confused me, too, because you always pick some songs that slow down the set, introduce a different tempo, a break - only to pick up the pace again. That’s perfectly normal, and I actually thought that Maiden (Bruce/Steve) saw it that way, too.

I find this interview interesting as a comparison to Iron Maiden’s approach, since Rush actually made the opposite decision in every respect: Iron Maiden chose someone who was already familiar with the Iron Maiden repertoire, who is English/speaks English as a native language, and they don’t...

When the local press (not the music press) writes about Rock am Ring, it can sometimes be amusing: - The band Iron Maiden sports a wide variety of clothing styles - from band T-shirt to beach-ready outfits. - Bruce Dickinson delivered a slightly confused monologue about water. - Unfortunately...

You can explain the contradictions: Other cities might indeed see them again sooner, but Iron Maiden will never play a show in Nürburg - unless they’re booked for Rock am Ring. And that most likely won’t happen again for a few years.

The Rock am Ring live stream will feature “A Perfect Circle”. 18.10 Uhr: Social Distortion (Mandora Stage) 19.40 Uhr: Alter Bridge (Mandora Stage) 21.20 Uhr: A Perfect Circle (Mandora Stage)

IEMs are so common and widespread. I wouldn't call them unnatural. I can't believe that if Bruce really wanted it and didn't give up after a brief trial, he wouldn't be able to sing with IEMs. He could have a pair custom-made exactly to his specifications and needs. After a period of getting...

How about the theory that they’re more influenced by Rod’s or management’s opinions these days than they used to be when it comes to what would make for a good live show? Sure, Bruce could have refused to sing a song, but with Bruce, you could also imagine that he wanted to take it on as a...

It's very likely that it is actually a live recording that was chosen for the soundcheck.
