Davey on Bruce's shoulders

[Rikstewart]

Does anyone know when Bruce stopped carrying Davey around on his shoulders during NOTB as seen in the Maiden England and Live After Death videos?

Dave started eating too much.

 

[Rikstewart]

Ha ha, either that or Bruce got too old for it

 

[SinisterMinisterX]

Most likely, it just got old.

But no, I don't know when the last time it happened was.

 

[Ranko]

Well, it seems to be between the Seventh Son tour and No Prayer tour. Check out Maiden England (Bruce carries Dave during Adrian's NOTB solo) and then on some video bootlegs from the NPFTD era he doesn't do that anymore.

Like SMX said, it just got old. They still have other 'traditions' though, like when they all run to the edge of the centre stage during the main riff of The Trooper!

I was just curious because everytime i watch Death on the road or Flight 666 i keep expecting him to pick him up right before H's solo in Beast

Bruce is 25 years older. Plus Dave has put on some weight.

Nowadays, Dave could carry Bruce.

Look at NOTB on Live After Death, then NOTB on Flight 666. Did Dave quit smoking? Because that will make you pack on some weight.
