Iron Maiden | Bruce’s Rant | Pittsburgh, PA | 11.8.24

[@wussupitsmeyaboi1210]

Respect. Thanks, Bruce. Concerts are supposed to bring fans together, not divide them.

[@jimdub8361]

Depends on the show. Maiden no mosh zone

A real rock star. A proper gentleman.

[@ghastlynavigator]

Bruce is the greatest!

[@jonkotick5233]

No violence in the audience ... alright, our next song is about war 🤘 Bruce, you crack me up.

[@jerryflick7187]

I was there about five rows deep center. I got pics of Bruce making faces while that was going down. Another video showed a guy crowd surfing behind the altercation. Thanks for sharing. 🤟

[@aaronsarchive82]

THANK YOU for capturing this!!! I regretted not having my phone out when this happened. Definitely a highlight of the show. Hope the idiot in the front row who threw the punch was embarrassed as hell.

[@guitarjunkie7124]

Love Bruce!

[@Bigfoot-px9gj]

Git after it, Bruce!

[@CoffeeMatt10]

As soon as I saw the title I thought “what has the crowd done this time?” Seriously, go to a concert, enjoy yourself, be a good person and allow others to enjoy themselves, and allow the band to get on with their performance without having to stop and address you for doing the opposite of any of those things!

[@Coconuthut1]

I was there lol. Love Bruce

[@enclave4625]

I was there , they played death of the celts after , great show

[@TheAKfellow644]

Me and the old man had a good laugh at that

[@kenbrown5449]

He did the same thing at a concert in Sacramento a looooonnnnnggg time ago. Somebody threw a firecracker on the stage and he went frikkin OFF! People pointed out who did it and he was kicked out of the concert. I was standing right in front of him, and you should have seen his face! He was PO'd!

[@michaeldean7220]

Entirely justified but Bruce has always liked a little onstage rant

[@MarkAffeltranger]

Crap! I missed this show. I must not have heard the ads on DVE

[@kevinhennessy1615]

Well Done Bruce 👏👏 LEGEND

[@SolarSailor1967]

Moshers : " I'm going to pay for tickets to my favorite band so I can barely pay attention and stomp around flailing my arms & legs at strangers. "

[@grantzelenick8200]

Not an Iron Maiden fan at all but dude is right

[@AldoTurco-v6v]

Great BRUCE!!!!

[@jerzeydolphins]

lol bruce dont like the mosh pit,makes me wonder if he was in one back in the day and ate sum haymakers lol

[@stepsgaming]

I am getting older and I appreciate Bruce...I was at this show... on Steve Harris side... pretty sure the issue was on the other side over by Dave Murray. Yeah I don't like people trying to Mosh now and most of the people at a Maiden show are not young, though there is a lot of young... just well... the band is older and so is 60 percent of the crowd.

[@molasorrosalom4846]

People are still fighting at Iron Maiden concerts????

[@Chris-lz1fs]

Bruce for President! Maybe he could have a word with Vladimir Putin...

[@mandolore_the_glorious7049]

Nah man. Putin just doesn't tolerate people's B.S.

[@thefonzkiss]

It was Blaze trying to get on stage.

[@gabor222]

Blaze made a record with Wolfsbane in 2022 that kicks the whole post-2004 Iron Maiden discography in the ass. :D He doesn’t need to climb back to Maiden.

[@MetalDrumr]

I can understand some moshing and pushing but throwing punches crosses the line for sure. People just want to enjoy the concert no need to make it a bad experience for anyone else everyone wants to have fun.

[@JamesDCornette]

It's an arena show. There's no need for moshing.

[@derekzicari2181]

No moshing just because it's an arena show? I'll mosh at Metallica next year, thanks anyways​@@JamesDCornette

[@JamesDCornette]

@derekzicari2181 have fun "moshing" during Nothing Else Matters lol.

[@angry_mouse]

I remember back in the 80s when thrash metal and moshing blasted their way into the youth culture of the time. All the heavy metal old ladies and classic rock grannies got upset and used to bitch about it a lot. Few people remember that thrash metal and death metal came to life to wipe heavy metal rock stars and rock and roll geezers and their ways from the face of the earth once and for all ☠️

[@fbomb7184]

Did it work…? Nope.

[@angry_mouse]

@fbomb7184 It worked for me and many more. I don't give a flying fuck about you

[@gradybrown9745]

He said the same thing about Cannabis smokers... God forbid people may fire up a joint at a Iron Maiden / Heavy Metal concert.. He had security drag them over the barracde and humiliated them about their weight if front of the entire Arena because they don't like the smell of Cannabis at a Heavy Metal Concert. Karma is a bitch Bruce'y boy.. couldn't give me Ticket to their lame as hell show

[@joshd3192]

@@gradybrown9745 What gives you the right to expose other people to your smoke?

[@gradybrown9745]

@joshd3192 exposed to smoke...?? you youngsters are just a bunch sissies nowadays always crying about 1 thing or another.. you wouldn't of lasted 5 minutes at a KISS Concert back in their prime trust me.. my 1st gig was KISS DYNASTY Tour '79. I seen GHOST back in 2016 in Bloomington, Ill and the place was soooooo packed with bud smoke PAPA III about shit a brick when he hit the stage.. he just pointed his finger at the crowd in disgust be never brought it up.. ROCK N' ROLL.. 🤘🤪🤘

[@gradybrown9745]

@joshd3192 1st off, I don't smoke.. I am more of a Pilsner person...secondly that's the silliest thing I have heard today. What gives you the right to say they can't..?? and unless they are blowing it in your face, i don't see any exposure happening..For the singer of a Heavy Metal that quite honestly wouldn't of ever gained any traction in the first place if it wasn't for Pot Heads to have somebody dragged over the barricade and humiliated about their weight because they smoked some Cannabis at a Heavy Concert is the most absurd thing I have ever witnessed and a definite black mark on Iron Maiden.

[@Lemmon714_]

He didn't mind when I saw them for Piece of Mind. There may have been a few kids that weren't chain smoking cigarettes and weed, but everyone else was. Everyone that I was with were enjoying weed, Coca Cola and my screen name. Greensboro NC, 1984 or 1985. Fun times

[@joshd3192]

@@gradybrown9745 How could you not be blowing it in the face of others when you’re in general admission in a packed arena, genius? People like you lack any self awareness.

[@thevenin2]

Is he a liberal or something? Not sure what happened here, but I do remember when Billy Corgan told the crowd to stop moshing lol.

[@spaz-egotthatlongmoney3112]

Who fucking cares and what does that have to do with anything he said?

[@mondoseguendo6113]

are you worried his hands are bigger than yours?

[@thevenin2]

@mondoseguendo6113 No, not really. I just think sometimes entertainers think their opinion means more than it's worth. Kind of like celebrities telling us how to vote. I think they should stick to what they're good at, singing or acting. I love Iron Maiden by the way.

[@thevenin2]

@spaz-egotthatlongmoney3112 Well, I care. I don't go to a concert to be lectured like I'm a juvenile. Entertainers needs to stick with what they're paid to do, and that singing. Not wax poetically about how another man should or should not conduct himself.

[@juresaiyan]

Is so much swearing really necessary?

[@TheAKfellow644]

Yes it fucking is and if you dont fucking like it dont go to a damn metal concert and probably stay off the fuckin internet
