Iron Maiden Win Brit Award! (Much To The Crowd’s Bemusement)


About time, too.

Justifiably, Iron Maiden scooped the Brit Award for Best British Live Act last night ahead of Elbow, The Verve, Scouting For Girls and, most importantly, Coldplay.

Classic Rock would like to offer out hearty congratulations to the Irons and pay tribute to them for all of the amazing live shows over the years.

There was a downbeat vibe at the actual ceremony, however.

Classic Rock’s spy at the Brits reports that Maiden’s gong was greeted with bemusement, with the majority of the Duffy-obsessed audience failing to applaud and, indeed, not even seeming to be aware of Maiden’s existence.

Not to take away anything from Maiden’s achievement, but the muted reaction was rather disheartening…
