Hammersmith 84

[Christopher Baines]

Theres a qoute on LAD wiki page from Bruce thats says the whole video was meant to be from London but Dave Lights was at war with lighting but the lighting was too dark at Hammy so they shot at LA. Does that mean Hammy 84 was shot too or is Bruce mis remembering and mixing it up with Hammy 82?

He is mixing it up with Hammy 82.

Are you sure? I know they didn’t like the colors for ‘82 and shelved the live album concept for later, but I thought there was some intent to do Hammersmith ‘84 as the Live After Death release that ended up expanding to Long Beach due to some business or other. Maybe I’m getting stories confused.

Hmm ive not heard it before and it is like Bruce to get stuff like this wrong

The shows in Hammersmith were all recorded (NOT FILMED by the band) with the intention of releasing them as their first live album (AKA Live After Death). The BBC did film little parts of it and conducted some interviews with Keith Wilfort and some fans but that's it.

The show that was screwed up because of lightning was the one they played at Hammersmith 82.

The band didn't film any of the shows in Hammersmith in 84 because they weren't using their full production and they wanted the video to show how BIG they were.

I figured as much. Bruce mis remembering again. Lets hope he never gets to write the history of Iron Maiden. It'll be so factually inacurate. Be good to see what the BBC filmed though
