Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden confronts a guy in the audience with a camera at a gig

[maidenfanmartin]

I thought you were allowed to film at their concerts

[timballaam]

I agree Bruce doesn't give a shit about the fans taking vids and uploading them here or anything, and that alone shows a lot of passion for the music and love for the fans. I think this, because of the time it was taken, and everything, there were more people taping shows to sell. I don't think its the videoing that bothers, but someone making money off the effort they ar eputting in. And as said, Bruce is known to dick about and banter with fans, and is what makes him and maiden special imo

[Ekiszzero]

...eh! I don't speak English.... so, I didn't understand anything! (can anybody transcribe this?) XD

[ABshookme]

Back then you didn't have a camera in your phone and it was totally unacceptable taking pictures or filming so you and your friends have something to look at. - Time has changed, because now it's okay that everybody is filming and sharing with the rest of the world on Youtube.

[thismortalcoil696]

Haha

[lute760]

Bruce confronts "a guy in the audience with a camera"? Or Bruce confronting YOU in the audience with YOUR camera?

[ausselwassel]

@lute760 he is lmfao 

[sphereballs]

Ah, how times have changed! Nowaday, half of concert goers are waving cameras about instead of enjoying the show.

[apeintelligence]

@sphereballs you are totaly right. when a saw maiden there were two guys with the camera that didnt enjoy the show because they were filming. i wanted to hit them

[pizzacastello]

He has absolutely no problem with recording stuff from the audience. He just has a great taste of humor (when not laughing is more laughable, though). Up the Irons from Hellas!

[Scarecrow545]

Guys, look at the related videos. "Iron Maiden- Dickinson objurgates a stupid fan..." he says "I dont care about anything else, you can take as many videos as you like, download what the fuck you want, I dont care", etc.

watch?v=Rdj_oEBdnwQ

[MotorheadNL]

this was funny as hell!

[DamageIncM]

Ehm, I don't think he was really kidding around cause he wouldn't call him an "asshole" if he didn't want to be disrespectful.

I wouldn't expect Bruce to be an azz about someone with a camera... geez, there are hundreds with a camera are Maiden-shows, so what the heck??

The only reason I could otherwise come up with is that when the camera moved down, the camera-guy put up his middle finger at Brice for ratting him out or something.

If not, Bruce was being weird...

[filter1996]

@DamageIncM nah, i think bruce was just having his fun, as usual

[DamageIncM]

@filter1996

Yeah, I know what you mean.

But, like I said, why did he call him an "asshole"?

I mean, it seems like Bruce was annoyed by something...

As most of us usually know him to be an easy-going guy, having no problem with such things.

Also, that when he's kidding, he would keep down his language usually.

[gutch666]

what song will play?

[SantaWithGuns]

Is this "guy" you by any chance? :)

[WildMike1234]

Oh you are so busted

[BlackenedThunder]

He doesn't give a shit actually. When he was touring with Iron Maiden in 2003, they played Wildest Dreams from Dance of Death before it was released and Bruce said "Use your recording machines, cellphones and record this song. We're no other band" to the crowd. It's just a joke.

[orlandohoward12]

Bruce doesnt give a fuck if his fans take his videos.Its just some kind of joke or somehing.I remember in one of his concerts with Iron Maiden he said take out all your cameras cell phones rocerders and record this song then upload it and make people see what we are doin'.By the way you busted by Bruce Dickinson which means your are some kind of prophet now.

[jzama85]

he was just goofing arround. when he's mad he starts cursing and cursing and more cursing.

[steveyoshi]

to all those that thought Bruce was disrespectful... I disagree!

in my opinion, he didn't give a shit and was playing around... you know when he is being serious and this was not then.

[TheAncientMetalhead]

Dude,don't give a damn!Continue with the camera!You are a fan,you don't want to make money selling the video,so,you payed your ticket,you don't want to take advantage of anything,you don't insult or bother anyone,you are a pure fan...and if all those i mentioned are true,do whatever the fuck you want!!!Metal hails!

[sweetgyy]

hi how are you doing asshole ? hahaha

[musicdork4ever]

no matter what, you never call your fans an asshole. especially when they purchase tickets to your shows. I hate it when musicians do this kind of shit

[KrossPoison1]

@musicdork4ever I agree, bruce is a really disrespectful guy to people that go to his shows. He needs to get a fucking grip and learn to have a laugh. If someone throws something at the stage make a joke out of it, don't take it as an insult because most of the time it's not.

[lionnew]

@KrossPoison1 r u serious?? if u respect Bruce Dickinson and IM you would NEVER throw something on stage, NEVER..and also what about the danger for injuries??? these guys deserve to be kicked out from the concert...

[KrossPoison1]

@lionnew Justin Beiber handles it better than he does.

[lionnew]

@KrossPoison1 ok, ur a five year old stupid cunt..i cant explain it otherwise..

[KrossPoison1]

@lionnew No..that's how it is. Bruce is a legend but sometimes he over does it.

[MegaMj1998]

@lionnew I fucking agree... I have had that happen to me at gigs before, and it fucking sucks balls.... serriously... 1 time, I had some1 throw a beer bottle on stage and i went down there and kicked his ass... it pisses u off

[lionnew]

@MegaMj1998 really? : D..he deserved it though, he deserved it...

[brakoify]

lmfao that was hilarious right at the cam "but never forget mr bootleg man with the video camera!" haha

[onizuka132]

vai,prego



[pollitobecker]

"nunca voy a olvidar al tipo con la cámara de video... hola, cómo estay weon?"

[spermatoman]

ajajajajajajajaajajajaj

[Maidenhead1996]

he was just making fun don't take this seriously. in 2003, iron maiden performed wildest dreams before the album dance of death released. and bruce said "use your telephones and record the song, because we are not like the others" to the crowd.

[rkrokberg]

@Maidenhead1996 I believe that is indeed true. Iron Maiden are not like the others. Number 148435839 reason why to love Maiden: Maiden is about music, not money. Oh gods know that those guys earns my respect over and over and over and over again.

[darkania9]

hey! somebody help me, I speak spanish, and I don't longer understand what is he saying, so, can somebody write from 0:36 to 0:50? if I read it I will understand XD!!!

[axe456]

@darkania9 "I will never forget mr bootleg man with the video camera, there is a dark side hi how are you doing asshole, there is a dark side"

[darkania9]

@axe456 I see, thanks XD

[Rangerhalt1]

That made me laugh so hard... :P

[guibillgreat]

OWNED!!!! BIG TIME XD

[Metal8909]

Haha, thats funny, he's talkin about the year 2000 and the future and shit and then he starts talkin about a guy with a camera

[51m50n]

How you doin' asshole? Hahahahah xD

[ElectroElectroxD]

yea "The Guy" was you

[2Modern4Angel2]

LOL!!!!!! that was awesome!!!!!

[sokinikos23]

Oh shit fuckin mother of all metal! I WAS THERE!!! 1998 at Milan

[IronMaidenSDABNJ]

If Bruce says "stop filming" you got to stop filming and not stare like an idiot and keep filming.

If Bruce says, it becomes law

[kualalumpur88]

@IronMaidenSDABNJ "If Bruce says, it becomes the law"

That's awesome...and true!

[psych0p4t3]

@IronMaidenSDABNJ Yeah it becomes the law, but fuck the law.

[SenyorJMEZ]

But never forget Mr Bootleg man with the video camera.

[powerslaver6]

lol thats very funny

[suckmyassitsmells]

i dont think mr bootleg man was an asshole, maybe he just wanted to bring a tape home to show his friends how good the show was

[averagenikki]

jeez you guys take it so seriously. it sounds like he's thoroughly amused by it.

[mrmahavishnu]

hhahahah noob:)

[RicardoRAVB]

what does he said in this part?: "But never Forget Mr.. ??????...man with the video camara... its at 0.38 sec..

[ToothChipNThrash]

@RicardoRAVB "Mr. Bootleg Man with a camera" i think

[MrCreepingdeath666]

I think it was a bit much calling the guy an asshole

[6Andrew6Kearney6]

@MrCreepingdeath666

Can you blame him, its bruce who looses out when his concert is broadasted all around the world free for downloading before he even gers chance to realise it properly. If everyone did that, there would be no BRUCE AND NO MAIDEN becuse money from fans is what keeps them going,

[MrCreepingdeath666]

@6Andrew6Kearney6 I guess you're right

[6Andrew6Kearney6]

@MrCreepingdeath666

[MrCreepingdeath666]

[ryanhoskins01]

[Lucasuhi]

Whats he say ?

[danimal97520]

Bruce mentions the camera and moves on. Sounded to me like he was more amused than anything.

[MrOutsider82]

@danimal97520 axl would have stopped lol

[colie577]
