  • Bruce Dickinson not only sings for legendary heavy metal band Iron Maiden, he's an accomplished writer, fencer AND pilot. Robert got to meet and fly with Bruce, when he split the summer touring with Maiden AND flying "Ed Force One" for Iceland Express. The subject isn't "Rime of the Ancient Mariner," or even "Flight of Icarus," but travel trips from the air. And what he does about jetlag.
    See how Bruce lives to fly and flies to live here.

    This legend was there at the end of my tour. unfortuntely his aircraft went U/S but he flew us back in another aircraft. He was totally pilot mode and non condescending. He was there for us. I really thank him for his work and of course his music . but this person really brings himself to showing he is human. had a great time but he knows exactly where his feet are...

That isn't to say that I haven't found other bands to support with my dollar votes (Amon Amarth, for one)...but Maiden is near and dear to my heart. I encourage any Maiden fan who hasn't, watch the "History of Iron Maiden" someone posted here on youtube...great documentary filled with facts that you may or may not know!

I sat and chatted for a while, but he said he likes to avoid using his voice even to talk on show days. I let him hear some of the Moncton bootleg I made as well. Still remember a lot of the chat we had-good memories. Can't wait to see him again in Van. 7/29!!!
