âI was spotty, wore an anorak, had biro-engraved flared blue jeans with âpurpleâ and âSabbathâ written on the thighs, and rode an ear-splittingly uncool moped. Oh yes, and I wanted to be a drummerâŚâ
Bruce Dickinson â Iron Maidenâs legendary front man â is one of the worldâs most iconic singers and songwriters. But there are many strings to Bruceâs bow, of which larger-than-life lead vocalist is just one. He is also an airline captain, aviation entrepreneur, motivational speaker, beer brewer, novelist, radio presenter, film scriptwriter and an international fencer: truly one of the most unique and interesting men in the world.
In Bruce contemplates the rollercoaster of life. He recounts â in his uniquely anarchic voice â 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.What Does this Button Do?
Bold, honest, intelligent and funny, this long-awaited memoir captures the life, heart and mind of a true rock icon, and is guaranteed to inspire curious souls and hard-core fans alike.
