Funny Maiden Story

Invader
I was watching an old collection of interviews from Maiden back in the day on MuchMoreMusic Canada, and it stumbled upon quite a funny accurance that happened at a Toronto show. Turns out a guy wearing nothing but a gstring thong got on stage and started dancing. Apparently bruce didn't like this guy stealing the show from them, and ripped the thong right off him, making him run off stage in embarrassement wearing nothing but a birthday suit [!--emo&:lmao:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol.gif\' /][!--endemo--] [!--emo&:lmao:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol.gif\' /][!--endemo--] [!--emo&:lol:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol[1].gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol[1].gif\' /][!--endemo--] [!--emo&:lol:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol[1].gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol[1].gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
There is video footage of this to prove it, but it was blocked and it was of bad quality, however i'd love to get the unedited version as a bootleg!!! EXTREMELY RARE!!! you would probably have to contact Chumcity HQ in Toronto to get a copy of it. If they'd even let you [!--emo&:p--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/tongue.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'tongue.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Wait a minute, let me get this right. Some idiot was perfectly comfortable wearing nothing but a thong in front of thousands of people, but turned chicken when a few more square inches of flesh were exposed?!?!? Sounds quite strange to me, though I don't doubt the fine folks at MuchMusic (the only good music-on-TV network on this continent, or at least it was last time I saw it).

I suspect a case of tiny genitals. After all, if you got the goods, flaunt it! [!--emo&:nana:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lambada.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lambada.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
LOL, i didn't get a good look at the video, i saw it ONCE on MuchMoreMusic, recollections of ebarrassing moments or something.

Was that the episode of Powerhour, co-hosted by Bruce? If so, I missed the beginning. [!--emo&:(--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/sad.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'sad.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

When was this, I've never heard about it on Much More Music [!--emo&:unsure:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/unsure.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'unsure.gif\' /][!--endemo--] I wanna see it
 
Bruce seems to like ripping off peoples clothes on stage. I recently read that on his birthday, the guys hired a model to dance on stage for him during a concert, and he ripped her top off!!! WHO WILL BE NEXT?!?!?! [!--emo&:unsure:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/unsure.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'unsure.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
I don't think it was POWERHOUr on muchmoremusic, even though they dedicated a whole show to maiden once. It was a collection of Chumtv interviews back when MUChmusic didnt even exist. Anyways i think it was a case of bad interiews or something, like one with Iggy Pop that wen't wrong when he called the interview a shall i say "Vagina"/. Anyways if my memory isn't failing i believe it was on muchmoremusic recollecting old interviews and funny things that happened in some of them. Anyways they added a short clip of the Toronto show from Maiden when the guy got on stage and bruce ripped the thong off him (censored of course)
One more funny thing about an interview collection was they were interviewing Bruce Dickinson when he had his long LONG hair and he was using an ionic charger that is at the Toronto Science museum or something. Anyways he was being interviewed while ALL his long hair was sticking STRAIGH UP in the Air!!!! FUNNY [!--emo&:lmao:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol.gif\' /][!--endemo--] [!--emo&:lmao:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/lol.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'lol.gif\' /][!--endemo--] [!--emo&:rock:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/headbang.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'headbang.gif\' /][!--endemo--] [!--emo&:rock:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/headbang.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'headbang.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

Someone has a "Bloopers of the Beast" DVD listed on eBay. I've never heard of it but I'm sure its in some people's collections. Most of the clips seem to be in Canada, though I don't see the aforementioned incident on the track list. It sounds pretty funny though.

Any boot collectors have it in their collection?

2. The "put that cigarette out" incident in Toronto 2000
3. Heaven Can Almost Wait - Nicko scraps the song in Quebec 1996

5. Eddie's rope breaks and colapses Montreal 1998

Possibly some of them are just clips, and some are the whole incident?
