Description
“I was spotty, wore an anorak, had biro-engraved flared blue jeans with ‘purple’ and ‘Sabbath’ written on the thighs, and rode an ear-splittingly uncool moped. Oh yes, and I wanted to be a drummer...” Bruce Dickinson, Iron Maiden’s legendary front man, is one of the world’s most iconic singers and songwriters. But there are many strings to his bow, and larger-than-life lead vocalist is only one of them. He is also an airline captain, aviation entrepreneur, motivational speaker, beer brewer, novelist, radio presenter, film scriptwriter and international fencer. In this memoir, Dickinson reflects on the rollercoaster of life in his uniquely anarchic voice, recounting the explosive exploits of his eccentric British childhood, the meteoric rise of Maiden, summoning the powers of darkness, the philosophy of fencing, brutishly beautiful Boeings and firmly dismissing cancer like an uninvited guest. Bold, honest, intelligent and funny, this long-awaited memoir captures the life, heart and mind of a true rock icon.
