We are one of the last heavy metal bands. Iron Maiden has always been unique.
The band has always stayed close to its fans and not sold out. That's a very rare thing. I can see how rare that is having been outside of the band for eight years. Maiden has integrity. I think people appreciate that.
To me, anyone with an Australian accent wielding a tennis racket is cool.
I get to fish a lot of wild and wonderful places on tour.
A band is sort of like a star. It reaches a peak and burns out. To have five guys working in perfect harmony longer than a couple years is difficult.
