Iron Maiden disgraced
Mood:  surprised
Now Playing: Los Angeles Ozzfest may have been the straw breaking the camel's back.
Topic: Heavy Metal
Metal legends Iron Maiden were disgraced on August 20 when the crowd had thrown anything and everything at the band. Beer cans and eggs were thrown at Maiden, and Black Label Society interrupted "The Trooper" when they came on stage with their bikes. "Big" Dave, from the Black label society, s tarted to make fun of Bruce (frontman Iron Maiden) over the PA, and Maiden's drummer had to ask Bruce to stop so he could clean the egg off of his drums. Bruce then ran to the front-row and started to call names at the people who had thrown the eggs, saying, "That a**wipe right there, with the curly hair, the f**king glasses, and Ozzfest laminate throw his f**king a** out of here right now. It's gonna take more than eggs to stop IRON MAIDEN, and if it wasn't for a lawsuit, I'd rip your f**king head off right now, you piece of s**t!!!!"

What happened? Supposedly, Sharon and Kelly Osborne approached the side stage bands to "'join them in throwing eggs at IRON MAIDEN this evening.' All the bands were encouraged to rally the other side-stage bands to do so. Members and/or friends of the hardcore band BURY YOUR DEAD were seen actively trying to encourage other side-stage bands to 'join in the fun.' Thankfully, many side stage bands angrily declined," said one bands manager who reported the story.
