It's a 16 sec movie of Maiden at Earls Court; taken on a compact digital camera, so alas there's no sound. But it's pretty cool, anyway

In Quicktime format, I think, but should play in anything that'll play .MOV files.

It's during Can I Play With Madness.

Is this some kind of jo... Oh you did it during Can I Play With Madness, it must be...

 

[spawn]

I thought it would be funny to film Rock In Rio on my digital camera and post the file, but im too lazy.

 

[Mark]

What the samhell are you on about, boy?

 

[spawn]

I thought you were making fun of us Maidenless saps, but now I realise you were simply trying to ease our burden

 

[Mark]

I would never make fun

 

[spawn]

And ill never see Maiden Except on the video clip where it looks like a really awesome show

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Having no sound on that clip improves it I am sure. Bad, bad song...

[Blitzkrieg]

Oi, that is exactly how I feel about you not liking DoD!

 

[Spiff]

Shut up Blitzy, you're stupid, go and listen to some nu-metal you big jerk! You're not my father! You idiots, you blew it up! Damn you all to hell! I'd like to think that if I was the devil you're the only one I'd tell! It's a question of money?

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Spiff, you don't like DoD either, your opinion is void.

 

[Spiff]

Yeah, and you don't like Led Zeppelin. Discuss.

 

[Mark]

Your opinion is a vacuum. It sucks! Hahahaha! haha. ha. ahhhh...

I wish I'd filmed Janick 'Gandalf' Gers' amazing magical skills on the big screens, but alas.

Thankfully I was on Adrian & Dave's side of the arena

 

[Blitzkrieg]

It isn't that I don't like them, it is that I think they are overated. They have some good songs, but some of the best albums of all time? No, I don't think so.

 

[Spiff]

Did you film the latest state-of-the-art Eddie? I hear Peter Jackson is looking for pointers for when he makes King Kong, and Maiden's stage show might give him a few ideas.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Janick 'Gandalf' Gers' amazing magical skills

LMAO!

Bastard..

 

[Mark]

Alas, no. You know how in movies when the big monster comes on screen, and the explorer type lowers his binoculars to see if this huge amazing thing is really what he sees? That's what happened.

Except the Eddie was pretty crap, in all honesty.

I must say, though, that seeing the shots and editing on the big screens during the gig, the 3 or so cameramen and whoever was piecing it together on the night did an AWESOME job - 100 times better than RiR.

Bastard...
