yeah fuck sharon completely.
bruce dickinson was incredible that night though. these are actual quotes from him to the audience between sets,
this was right after The Trooper:
"You may have noticed a few wise asses decided they would go down to the supermarket, buy a few fucking eggs and start throwing them at us. I guess they didn't notice but my friends, this is an English fucking flag and these colours do not fucking run from you ass wipes. Because we know, we know that there's a whole bunch of Iron Maiden fans out there that came to see us! So what I would suggest, is that if you see someone raising their hand to throw some shit at this band, which incidentally Nicko is cleaning up his drumkit at the moment so that we continue the concert... If you see somebody throwing some shit at this band and they raise their arm, make sure that it goes down in two fucking pieces for me."
this is after Phantom of the Opera: "As you might have gathered, we are not from around here, we're from England. We don't have a constitution like you have, but I do recall somewhere from the old history books and stuff that yours starts with something like, "We The People". Well the reason we're here tonight. The reason we're back on stage after some ass wipes tried to turn our PA off three or four times during the show... The reason we're back here because, oh, somebody just accidentally on purpose just happen to come out with 36 eggs to throw at us. what an accident! that wasn't planned at all was it? The reason we're back here tonight... the reason we're back here now is because you, the fucking people, and there is Nothing. There Is Fucking NOTHING that will get between Iron Maiden and the Iron Maiden audience that is here tonight! Fucking Death before fucking dishonor, my friends!"
