Only five more years to see Iron Maiden live as many times as humanly possible

Posted by SeanB on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 at 8:27 AM (PST)

They say all good things must come to an end, but why this??? It looks like Iron Maiden bass player Steve Harris has been quoted as saying that the band probably only has another five good years until they hang it up. While it’s understandable what he’s saying about getting older and not wanting to sell the fans short, I think everyone is missing the important question that this whole thing is raising. AREN’T THE MEMBERS OF IRON MAIDEN IMMORTAL?!?! What’s next, Manowar are mere flesh and blood? The world is coming apart at the seams people.

If you think you can do it without crying and would like to read the entire quote from Harris you can do so by clicking here.

The band issued this statement:

He has played key parts in some of the biggest, most legendary movie franchises of all times. He has played kings, wizards, evil forces and shining knights. He is worshipped by movie and theatre fans all over the world. He speaks multiple languages fluently and is an accomplished singer of opera and metal as well. He has been knighted by the Queen of England and honored with numerous awards.

And now, he is joining forces with The Kings Of Metal to rewrite Heavy Metal history: The legendary Sir Christopher Lee will be the narrating voice on ‘Dark Avenger’ on ‘Battle Hymns 2011′!

Sir Christopher Lee is a brother of true metal.
