"Iron Maiden not only survived the mid-90s slump that befell many metal bands, but got even more heavy and ambitious. Last year they celebrated that 50th anniversary with the Run for Your Lives tour, which continues till this November."
"Formed in London in 1975 by Harris, Maiden went through multiple lineup changes before settling on Paul Di'Anno as vocalist in 1978, and clawing to the forefront of the new wave of British heavy metal (NWOBHM) via constant gigging."
"Diehard Maiden fans will be saying: why isn't it 10 hours long? laughs ebullient singer Bruce Dickinson when I meet him alone in a hotel in London's Soho. But hopefully it's an entertaining romp."
