What is this, a film or some kind of charter 'For Maiden Fans Only' that takes you to a mosh of some descript?

You can't fault Bruce, he's an absolute superstar: during his weekly Planet Rock stint, his recounting of the tale re the listener who once (allegedly) turned down a post concert 'nightcap' with Stevie Nicks "because he had to get the train back to Nottingham, sorry luv," some years ago was hilarious.

Maximum respect.

Awesome effort - lead singer for a satdium filling band and a fully qualified Boeing pilot.


Bruce has LIVED his life.

Slightly miffed they never mentioned the European leg and the Twickenham gig. Guess their home country is insignificant nowadays.

The film crew only followed them on the first leg, which was the bit with the plane. It wouldn't really have made sense to include anything from the second, third or fourth legs of the tour as the story was essentially about touring in Ed Force One.

What about the fantastic picture and sound quality? To quote my daughter "it's like being there"

A little annoyed that out of two cinemas in Swansea (Odeon & Vue) neither were showing it, so had to go to Bridgend Odeon. Does this mean they do not have the equipment or they thought there was no demand?

Picture Quality was great - but the sound in the Trafford Centre Odeon was clipping badly during the concert footage, which was a shame.
But overall i really enjoyed it. But I do wish they would slow down the camera cuts during the live footage - just give me slightly longer than 1/2sec per camera to be able to see whats going on. Not as bas as Rock in Rio but...
