Iron Maiden fans are fucking rich

Some rich sonnofa bitch spent $3,350 on the item above. It is a Japanese ‘2 Minutes To Midnight’ promotional EP, and it’s apparently very rare (only five in existence, apparently).

You can read the full article here.

Who the hell spends that much money on some Japanese EP? I do understand collectors, but 3 grand? In this economy? Jeez. I’d rather use that money to fly to a couple of Maiden gigs, but that’s just me.

Congrats to whoever got it, I guess. Also, go fuck yourself for having more money than me.

U.D.O. go all Big Four on Sofia, Bulgaria

The title is a bit misleading, but that’s what we do here. We mislead people.

U.D.O. will also film their Bulgarian performance for a DVD, much like the Big Four did last year (and I was there, in case you haven’t read that before).

I’m talking about their November 16 show in Sofia, which will take place at the ‘Hristo Botev Hall.’

Go there if you can, then get the DVD and go frame by frame trying to see your face. Then take a screenshot of that frame and prove to the world what a virgin you are.

Anthrax and Kirk sitting in a tree…

Kirk “The ball-to-little-girl’s-face kicker” Hammett, Metallica‘s guitarist, joined Anthrax on stage in San Francisco.

It happened last night and he did guest vocals (huh?) on “I Am The Law.”

Then he remembered he sort of plays guitar, and played “Whiplash.”

The audio from the clip above is awful. There’s another clip after the jump, audio is just as bad. So yeah, don’t watch it.

Trivium go acoustic

Is that Iron Maiden? Yes it is. Is it Iron Maiden‘s “Iron Maiden’? Yes it is.

Trivium like acoustic guitars now, apparently.

Chris Broderick gets interviewed

Megadeth‘s Chris Broderick just got interviewed. Sunday, slow news, lazy writer, I might as well post this instead of trying to think of a worthy post. I’m not even at home, so give me a break, okay?

Jeez.
