Bryan Reesman of
Attention Deficit Delirium reports:
IRON MAIDEN frontman
Bruce Dickinson recently attended the New York premiere of the
IFC documentary
"Monty Python: Almost The Truth (The Lawyer’s Cut)", for which he was interviewed. It is airing through Thursday and comes out on DVD next week.
MAIDEN fans have long known that after their concerts are over, the group puts on
"Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" from the film
"Life Of Brian". The late
"Python" member
Graham Chapman appeared in the video for
"Can I Play With Madness?", directed by
Julian Doyle, who also helmed
"Crowley" (the movie written by
Dickinson and inspired by his
"Chemical Wedding" solo album) and edited the
"Monty Python" films
"Life Of Brian" and
"The Meaning Of Life".
There's always been a cheeky sense of humor that
Dickinson and
MAIDEN have possessed that certainly mirrors the absurdity that
"Python" embraced in their heyday.
Attention Deficit Delirium caught up with
Dickinson on the red carpet of the
IFC premiere to get his take on the legendary British comedy troupe.
