When Marvin Gaye met his untimely demise, my big brother told me you always have to catch the greats, the legends, as many times as you can, while you can. Sound advises, imo; seeing this lot three times this month.

Up the Irons! :-\

Bruce is one of the all-time great frontmen. Saw them here a couple of years back. One of the best I've ever seen. They also do good beer

Yep. Always been my favourite band. And one of the very best of Britain; After The Beatles, The Stones, The Who (all slightly before my time) it's Iron Maiden. In fact, their longevity puts them up there with all those others.

There’s a distinct lack of metal amongst today’s youth. I often wonder what todays Physics & Pure Maths kids listen to in the sixth form common rooms ?

This is also true - not bad for a boy from Worksop

Plenty of it around if you know where to look. I went to see an Icelandic death metal band recently (only because my mate's nephew was in the band tbf - but they were quite good, and there was a decent crowd in

Indeed.

Actually, talk about "through the looking-glass"; in the middle of tennis current Iron Maiden tour he turns up at EGVN the other night. Apparently they're putting one of their old mumbo-jumbo fleets out to pasture and had put on a bit of a knife and fork dinner-dance to celebrate. They had hired a Maiden tribute band to assist the evening's festivities and Lord Bruce of Dickinson only got up and sang for them! What a man, what a hero. That's the stuff that wins world wars, gents!

Shame I missed it; that's just up the road from my manor.

Plenty of youngsters there last night. And on a school nigh too, for all love! Though I was reminded that's it's actually summer hols just now, hence the attendance of two of my own boys.

Piece of piss nowadays surely? Don't even need your big brothers' input as you might've done in the olden days.
