IRON MAIDEN Singer Airlifts Beirut Evacuees - July 21, 2006
World Entertainment News Network reports that IRON MAIDEN singer and qualified pilot Bruce Dickinson airlifted 200 British citizens who had fled war torn Beirut, Lebanon back to the U.K. yesterday (July 20). The 47-year-old flew a Boeing 757 to Cyprus where he picked up the evacuees and flew them back to London's Gatwick Airport. A colleague says, "He was only too keen to get involved and help. "He has a strong interest in the welfare of people caught up in international conflicts and cares about what is going on."

COMMENT | BRUCE DICKINSON Saves The Day For Stranded Brits

Monsters And Critics.com (people.monstersandcritics.com) has issued the following report:
Son of Worksop, Nottinghamshire, IRON MAIDEN singer and licensed pilot BRUCE DICKINSON has airlifted 200 British citizens back to the UK yesterday from war-torn Lebanon.
Renaissance rocker Dickinson, 47, flew a Boeing 757 to the island of Cyprus where he picked up the UK nationals and flew them to Gatwick Airport.
According to All Music Guide, “he was the most acclaimed and instantly recognizable vocalist to emerge from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement of the early-'80s.”
Dickinson made his recording debut with Iron Maiden on their Number Of The Beast album in 1982.
Dickinson quit Iron Maiden in 1993 but rejoined the band in 1999.
According to his biography on Wikipedia, “his other interests include literature, writing, expert fencing, train technology and flying the Boeing 757 charter jets for the UK charter airline Astraeus where he is employed as First Officer. He was taught to fly by British Airways commercial pilot Captain Phil Dales.”
An unnamed colleague tells the wire service WENN, "He was only too keen to get involved and help. He has a strong interest in the welfare of people caught up in international conflicts and cares about what is going on."

The problem is your focusing on the things in life that don't really matter. When I was a kid I had hopes and dreams. We all did. But over time, the daily grind gets in the way and you miss the things that really matter, even though they are right in front of you, staring you in the face. I think the next time you should ask yourself "Am I on the right track here?". I don't mean to be rude but people like you I really pity. So maybe you could use the few brain cells you have and take advantage of the knowledge I have given you now. Good luck.

30 years of Maiden with only one Ottawa show to show for it in the past 15 years. You actually get played on CHEZ 106 for Christ's sake. At least honor us with a show now and then when the humanitarian crisis in Lebanon is over.......

I don't get it. Did I miss something? This is a hard rock/metal news site. Pat Roberson's 700 Club has their own site.

Why is it that none of the major news companies even brought up Bruce Dickinson doing that? Evacuating those people I mean. If Bono would have did anything we'd be hearing about it constantly. And all he would do is send a tax deductible check. I mean "Heavy metal legend flies in and evacuates people in his own fucking jet!". Is it just me or does that sound like a fucking story? Just goes to show that the media only makes heroes out of people that they want to be heroes.

Thanks for the "knowledge" wise elder.
(Where the fuck did those comments come from anyways? You were the first post, so it had NOTHING to do with anything that was said, and it also has NOTHING to do with Iron Maiden. Go have your "Dr.Phil" moment somewhere else.)

This guys is such a fucking hack.
He's got an AC/DC book and GN'R book, a My Chemical Romance book, a Maiden book and I see he's doing a Trivium book too.
Working for Terrorizer he's hardly a frontline music journalist and I doubt he has interviewed any of the bands he writes about personally. These 'insightful' pices of shit are noting more than what you or I could cobble together from the internet ourselves.
I wasted money on his AC/DC book, don't you make the same mistake with this one.

If you want to read a killer AC/DC book, go get "Highway to Hell; the Bon Scott Story"
Its a pretty good read.

the term fake is so overused. we all know what it means. but some people blow it out of porportion. someone might be fake to you, but to them. maybe you're the fake one. if they said you were fake. you'd deny it. they'd deny it too. we all deny every bad accusation made against us. we're so afraid to look bad in the light of society. so **** it all. it's ok to like a million different things. so what if you like heavy metal and rap. it can happen and it does. who cares whether you watch mtv or fuse. they're both Tv networks working for the same thing..your attention and support. and they get it. we're all fake. it's just to what extent. if you don't agree with what i'm saying. i don't care. it's a forum you idiots. say whatever you want. it's your chance to react. you can take it, or not. i don't care. call me fake and i'll say nothing. because it doesn't matter whether i am or not. i know who i am, and i know how to live my damn life. thanks for the input, but it's up to me whether i take your advice or not. have fun.
