My telly is safe.

It would have gone out the fuckin window if the other shite had won.

pet shop boys were awesome

Bollocks to all the others – Up the Irons !!!

MAIDEN RULEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. UP THE IRONS.

Lol @ Coldplay miming there set

FUCK YEAH I FUCKING VOTED….thanks hammer…
up the irons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
scouting for girls are the gayest wankers ever next to the hoosiers.

as much as i dislike coldplay they werent miming you fool xD they had a backing track for some of the sounds like most bands xD and i sat smiling for ten mins straight at maiden winning

SO WELL DESERVED. This was a brilliant shock. They’ve been the best live band for some time now! Voted for by the fans as well which is good. X

IRON GAYDEN SUCKS A LOT!!!!!

FUCKIN A. THE ONLY OTHER METAL MOMENT OF THE BRITS WAS BACK IN THE 90′S WHEN METALLICA OPENED UP, SUPPOSED TO PLAY ENTER SANDMAN OR SOMETHING BUT PLAYED SO WHAT, AND YES, IT WAS LIVE. FUCKIN UP THE IRONS.
I’M PLEASE I VOTED NOW.

Absolutely brilliant, glad I voted too, and Coldplay walked away with nothing. It’s about time the music industry realised it’s not all about Indie shit bands who’s name begins with “The” and churn out the same crap time and time again!!!

Coldplay suck more than Madina Lake… Fact!

Up the Irons!!!

I signed up on that shitty Brits website to vote for Iron Maiden, I’ve recieved dozens of emails about Duffer or whatever her name is, I had to sit through a whole night of watching Coldplay and Tom Jones (who now looks like Morgan Freeman), but it was worth it! CONGRATULATIONS MAIDEN!!!!

I am so utterly glad. I was having an arguement with all my friends – who are so ‘indie’ and ‘unconformist’ – and they were saying Iron Maiden are outdated and old.

Well a big Fuck You to them eh?

Up The Irons – finally, a well-deserved win.

Kick ass. Maiden won. Shame about AC/DC though, they deserved an award too. It just shows that metal will reign supreme for ever.

HELL YEAH!

Nobody sucks more than Madina Lake dude…not even Madina Lake.

UP THE IRONS!!!!

So Glad the Irons won coldplay are not Rock,truthfully they are shit

In the words of Jack Black: You Can’t Kill The Metal!
So awesome they won such a huge fuck you to those mainstream faggots. Especially Coldplay, Corey Taylor said that Coldplay is music to wipe your ass to. Couldnt agree more. Even more laughable is the fact that those cunts didnt win a single award. Iron Maiden rules all!

Heavy metal is truly back in the UK with this victory. Congrats Iron Maiden, truly, truly deserved!

Did anyone read what that fuckhead hack from the Sun had to say? He thought it was a slap in the face to Coldplay after the “incredible” tour they had.

The Sun – you wouldn’t wipe your arse with it…

That has to be the best acceptance speech I’ve seen!

Well done Maiden, it’s nice to see a real, talented British band get a Brit for once!

FUCK YESSSSSS,congratulations guys its well overdue but WELL deserved,everyone who voted should feel so proud,UP THE IRONS? FUCK YEAH

Maiden earned it! Congrats!

mainstream music is fucking shit, and fans havent got a fucking clue, which was proved by Duffy (who??) winning THREE awards, not one, not two, bit THREE awards

where are the decent bands in the award categories??
avenged sevenfold never got a sniff for best international artist, bullet for my valentine would of wiped the floor with the british awards, they should of got at least best british single for either scream, aim, fire or waking the demon.

but if you think any of the above is funny, then prepare yourself for the biggest joke in music ever, now who would you expect to pick up lifetime achievement?? my choice would be slayer, or maiden, or metallica, or ac/dc, but know, the winner of the lifetime award went to none other than the fucking pet shop boys!!!

kings of leon (who??) beat ac/dc to two awards and you just think, what the fuck is going through peoples minds when they vote for things like this?? the only decent thing about the two hours of piss taking was the fact that iron maiden won best live band

end of rant, for now

Wooooh go maiden! fuck coldplay!!

FUCK COLDPLAY

Maiden really deserved this one, I’m so glad I voted. That’s one in the eye for the so called mainstream. Also it’s good to see someone else notice the pish indie bands all begin with “The”. Coldplay suck big time. Someone needs to sort out the twat columnist for The Sun showbiz section because he thought it wasn’t deserved and thought Coldplay’s “epic” tour should have won it. FUCK OFF SUN!!!!!

Now we’ve just gotta wait until Flight 666!! Anyone have any more info on this? Please tell me it’s filmed on their plane!!?

I saw Iron Maiden Live last night in Christchurch, New Zealand, it fooken rocked!!!! BIG TIME!!!
UP TH IRONS
Well done boys…
You deserve more…
please come back and rock with us again

Just found the press release to follow this and their Brit win and World Maiden Day…

World Premiere of ‘Flight 666’ in Rio de Janeiro
North American Premiere at SXSW
World Maiden Day – April 21st

Metal legends Iron Maiden last night pulled off a stunning victory by a reported landslide at the UK’s prestigious Brit Awards when they were voted ‘Best British Live Act’ by the public and their fans ahead of Coldplay, Elbow, The Verve and Scouting For Girls.

Maiden are one of Britain’s biggest International acts ever, selling over 70 million albums and breaking ticket records around the globe with their enormous live following. Last summer they staged a spectacular British show at Twickenham Stadium, one of 90 shows in 38 countries on the current “Somewhere Back in Time” tour, playing to almost two million fans.

Bruce Dickinson says, “We are delighted to receive the Brit Award for Best British Live Act, especially as this is a testament to our fans. I’ve often said Iron Maiden’s secret weapon is our fans and they’ve proved us right all along. Anyone who’s been to one of our shows knows that they’re the most passionate and devoted fans on the planet, making the atmosphere at our shows incredible. So this Award is for them as much as it is for us. It is they who voted in huge numbers. It’s a shame they can’t all get a Brit statue!”

Manager Rod Smallwood adds, “This has to be good for Metal, l don’t think many Brit Awards have been given to Metal so it’s about time it was recognised for the creative force it is. Metal and Maiden have long thrived outside the mainstream media and radio so l am sure our fans will be very pleased about this and, let’s face it, they are the ones who voted in droves and the ones we have to thank. The black sheep finally invades your lounge!!”

Iron Maiden’s legion of fans will be getting the chance to see the band in full close-up on and off stage sooner than they think. Maiden’s very first feature film ‘FLIGHT 666′ will hit digital screen cinemas on Tuesday 21st April for a global one-day spectacular MAIDEN DAY event, where fans will be able to experience the adventures of the first leg of the band’s sensational Somewhere Back In Time World Tour – and all this in High Definition, big screen with full 5.1 surround sound.

‘Flight 666′ finally lifts the lid on life in Iron Maiden. The band flew their Boeing 757, christened ‘Ed Force One’ by their fans and piloted by vocalist and Airline Captain Bruce Dickinson, on a 50,000 mile journey literally around the planet. ‘Flight 666′ (the flight call number of ‘Ed Force One’) takes in five continents and 13 countries from India to Australia, Japan to Brazil, Mexico to Costa Rica, Argentina, Colombia and Chile to Canada and the USA and beyond in just six weeks of gruelling jetlag, enormous concerts and fan pandemonium, pulling off the most ambitious rock tour ever attempted in the process. It’s a fascinating, revealing and close-up portrait of the six members of Iron Maiden and illustrates just why the band have been crowned BEST BRITISH LIVE ACT at the Brit Awards.

‘FLIGHT 666’ is a document of one of the world’s most legendary bands at a truly historic point in their career and is must-see viewing for fans and anyone with an interest in music and live touring.

Maiden have also announced that the World Premiere of their movie ‘Flight 666′
will take place at the Cine Odeon cinema in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on
Saturday 14th March, followed by a North American premiere at the prestigious SXSW festival in Austin, Texas on March 18th at the Paramount Theater.

Says manager Rod Smallwood, “As the band are away from the UK touring throughout February and March (go to http://www.ironmaiden.com for details) we elected to have the World Premiere in Rio during the tour so the band can all be there. Following our appearance at the legendary first Rock in Rio Festival in 1985, Brazil has always been a very special place for us and we have since visited a number of times. The premiere will be in the early afternoon prior to our concert in Rio that evening.

“On the Somewhere Back In Time tour we will have toured in Brazil more than ever before, visiting eight different cities and playing in Sao Paulo twice. Having sold out the Palmeiras Football Stadium there a year ago we are going back again to play in the Interlagos Grand Prix circuit where last year Lewis Hamilton won the Formula One Championship. With over 40,000 tickets sold already over a month up front, other than motor racing this is expected to be the second biggest event there ever – after His Holiness the Pope! With the movie appearing in cinemas worldwide on
21st April and being back touring round the World on Ed Force One it’s a very exciting time for us!!”
