I've never seen this before. 1999 VH1 clip from New York with Tommy Vance.

There's a couple of extended interviews from the same show.

Shared by a fb page - handwritten answers to questions from Steve, Bruce, Dave and Nicko from 1983 (Steve also from 1982). No Adrian, unfortunately. Such stuff is always curious.

[Murder of Rue Morgue]

Not exactly a band-related news, but I think this one's worth a spot here.

Guy, better known through his nickname Maverick (or Mav), the writer and curator of The Iron Maiden Commentary, sadly is no longer with us. He passed away on Christmas' Eve, aged 60 (he was born in 1964).
Mav had taken over The Iron Maiden Commentary from the original founder Baeleron and managed both the website (updates stopped in 2011) and the Facebook page.

I spent hours on the IM commentary using a poor dial-up connection. I hope someone keep the page online as a tribute.

RIP

Check out the Adrian Smith thread in the Solo/Side projects section of the forum. We have chatted about it there.

I imagine they have chatted about his awesome double-necked Jackson.
