When DotNet asks about my favourite gig... It reminds me of one of the best in the business. Iron Maiden.
Not my favourite but a great song. Top bloke Bruce Dickinson…indeed I would be happy for any child of mine to accompany him to a slaughter. And especially if it put Cliff Richard’s nose out of joint for the Christmas No1

He owns and flies airplanes, he can do no wrong in my book.
& a top class fencer (not garden fencing) who knew

I don’t know about the fencing…. He is only going up in my estimation!

Bruce by all accounts is an absolute genuine dude. Really decent to people aswell. It's a quality some artists are lacking these days.

🤣🤣 that's a helluva explanation.

I'd find it hard to pick a favourite but for me fear of the dark just gives me nostalgia from being in that crowd and feeling that wall of noise for the woahoah bits.
Favourite wise, hallowed by thy name, fear of the dark, dance of death (super underrated in my opinion) wildest dreams, iron maiden, number of the beast, the trooper, the clairvoyant (also super underrated) aces high, run to the hills... At this point... Just throw a dart at a list of any of their songs and I could make a decent case for that to be one of my favourites. 🤣

Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills
Taken from Iron Maiden's 3rd studio album The Number Of The Beast released in 1982, which featured the singles "Run To The Hills" & "The Number Of The Beast"
White man came across the sea | He brought us pain and misery
He killed our tribes, he killed our creed | He took our game for his own need
We fought him hard, we fought him well | Out on the plains we gave him hell
But many came, too much for Cree | Oh, will we ever be set free?
Riding through dust clouds and barren wastes | Galloping hard on the plains
Chasing the redskins back to their holes | Fighting them at their own game
Murder for freedom, the stab in the back | Women and children are cowards, attack
Run to the hills, run for your lives
Soldier blue in the barren wastes | Hunting and killing's their game
Raping the women and wasting the men | The only good Indians are tame
Selling them whiskey and taking their gold | Enslaving the young and destroying the old
