    The latest Iron Maiden album is a masterpiece. Bruce, now 63, is performing better than ever, even after having throat cancer! An amazing person, incredible performer and long may he continue to create and inspire.

      Well, to be honest, people like Dickinson are the exception. Rock Stars might be a bit more conscious and educated or open minded than the average teenage pop star, but they are very often just heavy drinking outcasts or high school drop outs.

As for the BBC interviewer: for God's sake, do you really think being patronising with and speaking over your guests will make anyone really buy into the sophisticated image you are trying to portray for yourself?!

    I have met Bruce on several occasions and used to live above a pub that Nicko drank in. I was also a manager in a pub in New Southgate,London when the band came into play "Crystal Maze" on the video machine and I can tell you they are the most approachable and nice guys all round. Bruce is a true gent and will give anyone the time of day, just don't take the piss.

( that's a reference to guns/rifles that used a flint firing.. ahh... nevermind that ). Anyway, yes - I said " Bruce is a brilliant man ". I was wrong. I should have said - Bruce is totally FUCKING BRILLIANT!

    I started being SERIOUSLY interested in Rock N' Roll only during 2013 because of my office mate at the time. For nearly 4 years I could not listen to Maiden's music. It was too rich in music and very moving.
    Until a dramatic event took place in my life in the fall of 2017. The first of their songs I got attached to is DANCE OF DEATH. There is a small boy in the plot of the song that escapes from that dance of death that was the Black Death plaguing Europe. I am still so emotionally attached to that song that when I play it I get on my knee as the boy in the song plot does. And I used to escape problems, like the boy in the plot. Maiden and their character Eddie have been so instrumental to me that I stopped running from troubles and I started facing them in 2018. In this process, Maiden also unleashed that 'trapped' boy inside my soul. And since then, that boy has also become a writer of kids' short fiction stories, among many other things that I could not even dream of a few years ago.
    Regarding Bruce's business ideas, I think it is laudable. Others have succeeded in this. One name that springs to mind is Niki Lauda.
    The world needs big companies, no doubt about this. But the world needs more entrepreneurs who start small with bold ideas and then change the games.

    I did find the interrupting slightly annoying but I'm glad she did it. Bruce clearly has a lot to say on many things but given that most of his interviews are solely about music (with the occasional WOW you're a pilot/author/fencer too!? bit) it was good of her to move him along and cover the range of topics. I would love to interview Bruce, from this it seems like we would disagree on some 'world issues' but he's also very insightful and thoughtful.

    She interrupts him because the show has a time limit, and there other things shes wants to ask him. Also, Bruce is a really good talker who tends to go into tightly knit details about what ever he is discussing, which is awesome! He is a very intelligent guy. What really needs to happen is that he needs to do a 2 hour documentary called: Bruce Can Do It Better for Cheaper! He is correct, the governments of both the US and UK, are black holes, laced with corruption. Nothing new really, it's just how human nature plays out. The civilized world is just going through what Rome went through (history repeats). It's just happening at a faster pace than the 500 years for the decline of the Roman Empire. Bruce should look into running for office. He may be able to slow the decline down a bit, Lol. Up The Irons!

It is is refreshing to hear a rock star admit to being a conservative instead of the usual rock start patter with them banging on about how left wing they are because it is a fashionable attitude to have at the moment and at the same time raking in millions and living in mansions. Always respected you Mr Dickinson and this interview just adds to that. Thanks for keeping it real and not being a fake just to appeal to the masses.
