Flight 666 and Iron Maiden touch down at Odeon Kensington for the films premier
Monday 20th April sees the premiere of the Iron Maiden ‘rockumentary’ ‘flight 666′, as filmed by acclaimed Anthropologist Sam Dunn, director of the well received documentary ‘Metal: a head banger’s journey’.The band members will be at the showing themselves, with a guest appearance from Maiden’s zombie mascot Eddie.
The 2 hour film is a look behind the scenes of 2008′s mammoth Somewhere back in time tour, which saw Maiden travel abroad via their own plane, dubbed ‘Ed force one’, which was flown by Maiden’s licensed pilot and frontman Bruce Dickinson. The tour saw Iron Maiden go into their back catalogue and play what was considered to be one of the greatest tours ever, featuring songs from Powerslaveto Seventh son or a seventh son. That tour lasted for a good few years, which nearly sent the band mad, but it was worth it -i think so anyway.
The film has taken the prestigous ’24 beats per second award’ for best music documentary at the much respected South by South West festival in Texas. For those who cant make the premier, the movie is being shown hopefully at an Odeon cinema near you on April 21st -for one night only in 42 different countries. Any maiden fan unlucky enough to miss out on both screenings need not worry -the film will be available on Blue Ray and DVD from may 25th in a months time. Which can seem like a very long time for anyone missing out on the showing. The movie’s soundtrack is also being released, with live tracks from the tour dates featured on the movie -which can be brought on CD or vinyl on the same date.
The film premiers at the Odeon Kensington on Monday 20th April at 7pm. Need a venue for your London events or events? Look no further.
