Not only did they have their own plane, but the singer, Bruce Dickinson, was often the pilot of Ed Force One on world tours.

[@jonlate4581]

I was so ready to point this out!👍🤘

[@ESUSAMEX]

Bruce gave up flying the plane for the current tour because legally he is close to mandatory retirement as a commercial airline pilot. Once a commercial airline pilot reaches 65, he or she must retire. Bruce said that he decided to retire early due to the riggers of the road. He can still pilot his planes but he can no longer do so for pay.

Watch their live performance of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. It's a big must watch.

[@sanjinn0311]

Bruce is a commercial pilot and flew for Astraeus Airlines & he also pilots "Ed Force One" their passenger jet. This song came out in 1982 and is the last track on the the "The Number of the Beast." album. Steve Harris, the bassist & song writer, created the band in 1975. We have all been wanting Bruce to turn his mic up since forever, lol. My second concert ever (First was Kiss) was Iron Maiden, we drove up to Seattle (Portland had/has a ban on pyrotechnics so a lot of bands did not play there) to seem them in 1884 I think. I have seen them quite a few times since then.

[@nahnotsomuch2292]

Just saw these guys 2-3 years ago. Hard to believe they were still at the top of their game after this long. They were outstanding.

[@cyberdan42]

Iron Maiden has been around since 1975. Hallowed be thy Name was on an album released in March 1982. The Flight 666 concert DVD was filmed at concerts between Feb and March 2008 (the Toronto show here was on 16 March 2008). In reference to the time between the release of the song and this live performance, it is a period of almost exactly 26 years (a period that Iron Maiden was continually active, touring and releasing new material). So I'm betting a significant number of fans in that Toronto crowd were listening to a song released before they were actually born. Iron Maiden and the quality of their live performances is justifiably legendary; they are hugely influential for setting the benchmark (rarely achieved) for what is expected of a live heavy metal band in a concert performance.

[@metalmaster4930]

"Live After Death" is still one of my favourite live albums, ever. They where in their "prime". If possible, check a few songs from that album. There's great footage from that album/performances, too. Hope to see more reactions from Iron Maiden.

I went to see them in 1984 at the Philadelphia spectrum. Twister sister opened for them. It was the craziest concert I ever went to. I went with to the concert with my friends Joe B. Jerry P. who just passed away last month, Frank C. and my cousin Todd I. Joe brought a 1/2 pound of weed and rolled a join every minute or so and lit it then passed it down the row. We had a blast. Dee Snider from Twister Sister got the crowd going wild. It's a night I will never forget.

[@jcvdo8455]

another song you will like from Iron Maiden is Rime of the Ancient Mariner, you will love it! By the way, the singer Bruce Dickinson is also a commercial pilot, he is the pilot for this world tour.

[@ronnieicard]

The original studio version can be found on the 1981 album "The Number Of The Beast" IRON MAIDEN was originally started in 1975 with a different lead singer. Bruce became the lead singer in 1980.

[@vonanstetten2355]

Thanks for your great reaction video of this fantastic song! Iron Maiden is just one of the greatest band on this planet. I love them like i never loved a band before, and i believe that all theyr fans not just love them, it's a huge passion. Listening to maidens music is breathtaking, something you never want to miss anymore. It's really worth to listen close to all theyr albums and all these great songs. For me personally there was a gap in the whole 90's when blaze bayley was the singer, until bruce dickinson returns to the band in 1999. It wasn't really good, but brave new world (2000) was a great slbum again.

[@headhunter8106]

I was at this concert in Toronto. It was their Somewhere Back In Time tour. A documentary was filmed based on this tour, and it was done by another Canadian named Sam Dunn. And yes, they prefer as even a sound mix as possible.

[@James_Russell]

That was a great reaction. You get it! Camaraderie, energy, passion... It's a recipe for perfection when you combine that with awesome musicians, songwriters, and a great vocalist/front man. It's why they are the greatest. Check out Hallowed Be Thy Name (Live) Hammersmith for a better vocal performance. It's the best version in my opinion and many others. You'll appreciate the vocals more with that version. :)

a video you should definitely check out is Fear of the Dark from their 2001 Rock in Rio concert. 250,000 fans singing along is amazing.

[@sumonjamal1653]

Although Iron Maiden was formed in 1975, Steve Harris (bass) is the only member (being the band leader + primary songwriter) from that original pub band from the West End of London... From the current Iron Maiden, Dave Murray (guitar) joined in 1976 and became a permanent member in 1977 (after some changes involving an early vocalist)... Murray was friends (and bandmates) w/ Adrian Smith (guitar) who had his own band Urchin; Smith declined to join Iron Maiden, but finally joined in late 1980 as Urchin folded. Bruce Dickinson (vocals) was in a band called Samson in the late 70's/ early 80's and had done shows w/ Iron Maiden (when Paul Di'Anno was the vocalist)... When Di'Anno parted ways w/ Iron Maiden in the fall of 1981... Bruce Dickinson joined Maiden and made his debut on their 3rd album 'The number of the beast' in 1982 (which 'Hallowed be thy name' is on) In 1989, Adrian Smith left Iron Maiden, burned out by a decade of touring... Janick Gers (guitar) played on Bruce Dickinson's first solo album in 1990 ('Tattooed millionaire') and Gers replaced Smith in Iron Maiden that year. Bruce Dickinson left Iron Maiden in 1993 for a solo career... he was replaced by Blaze Bayley (vocals) for 2 albums. However, Maiden did poorly w/ Blaze as the singer... Dickinson's solo career also tanked... So, when the offer was made to reunite both Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith to Iron Maiden in 1999, they both accepted... Murray, Gers and Smith became a triple-guitar team in Maiden. This video was from their 2008 tour ('Flight 666') which revisited their 1984/ '85 tour for their 5th album 'Powerslave'.

[@ryant3600]

They formed in the 70's Bruce was not with them at that time, however he was in another band called Samson and Maiden opened for them in 1980 and that's how they met. Bruce joined Maiden in 81.Which this song was originally recorded on the 82' release The Number of the Beast. This performance is from the "Somewhere Back in Time World Tour" My wife and saw this show on her Birthday in Phoenix, AZ what an amazing night it was. Anyway, this song was 26 years old at this performance. However, they're back on tour right now and still playing it. Which it is now 41 years old. And they're still killing it out there live.

[@Manson1990]

Iron Maiden was one of my first bands to listen when I was introduced to rock and metal...It was 2003 and I was just a kid to become a teenager. They just released Dance of Death, my first album from them and my third one in general (The Golden Age of Grotesque from Marilyn Manson first, and then Fallen from Evanescence) and it marked an important moment in my life, my golden age of discovery of rock and metal music, what a time to be a teenager, lots of bands in their prime, Maiden, Manson, HIM, Nightwish, Slipknot, Rammstein, Stratovarius, Muse, gosh, I miss the 2000-2010's...But Maiden is always going to have an special place in my heart, and if you have the opportunity, go to a show from them! It's absolutely worth it, it what you said, the energy, they have great and amazing music, of course, but it's all about the vibes, the feeling of being surrounded by various generations of fans. Unique. :D Last year I saw them for the second time, and WOW, you can't say that all of them have more than 60 years (the drummer passes the 70's) they sound like always, even better! Ah! and by the way, the singer, Bruce Dickinson, have a solo project that it's very worth to listen at! I suggest Tattooed Millionaire, Shoot at the clowns, tears of the dragon, killing floor, Inertia, Man of sorrows and abduction!

I saw Maiden for the first time when I was 13 - I saw them for the 6th time last year - almost 38 years to the day from the first time (I,m 52). They are incredible live even after decades and they give 110% to their fans every time - they thrive as a live band on stage more than anything. They are starting a new tour in the next week or so and will be back on the road just a few months after finishing a super long tour that was interupted by the pandemic. PS - love your shirt - saw the Phantom performance at the Pantages Theatre in Toronto in the early 80's and a few more times since. Iron Maiden also has a song called Phantom of the Opera - nothing like the Lloyd-Webber version tho. You should check it out!!

Bruce Dickinson is one of the most talented guys around. He has done so much in his life. One of his skills/jobs in the 'off-season' is professional pilot. He flies for a small company in Europe and when he asked if he could use one of their planes for their tour, his bosses agreed and even let the livery be added, so yeah, they have their own plane, piloted by their lead singer. and, in one case in the US, when he heard there were fans in a nearby city that could not get to their concert, he flew over to pick them up and flew them back to enjoy the concert. AMAZING guy, not just an awesome singer.
