Metal legends Iron Maiden were recently announced as 2026 inductees into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, and the group has also been in the news surrounding the release of a new documentary, “Iron Maiden: Burning Ambition.” Singer Bruce Dickison talked about changes in the music industry while on the red carpet of the documentary’s premiere.
“The problem you have is that costs keep going up and everything else,” he said. “But that’s not an excuse for doing crazy, crazy ticket prices. We’ve always tried to keep our ticket prices lower than the general norm because, frankly, we don’t want a bunch of very rich people standing in front of the stage. We want real fans to be standing there, and they don’t always have loads of money. So it’s really important for us as a band to have that facility. We want young kids at the shows, and they don’t have loads of money. They’re gonna get their money from dad. But dad, these days, money’s tight. So it’s important to try and keep ticket prices within the bounds of reason.”
