Bruce Dickinson is Awesome
So Bruce is the lead singer for this heavy metal band called Iron Maiden, which was pretty big in the 80’s but is still rocking out today. As if being the lead singer for Iron Maiden wasn’t awesome enough, Bruce was also really into fencing and competed internationally, and started his own fencing equipment company. And as if being the lead singer of Iron Maiden and being a top international fencer wasn’t awesome enough, Bruce also decided to become an airline pilot and now flies Boeing 757 jets for a UK charter airline. Then, in a final coup de awesome, he had a 757 painted with the Iron Maiden logo, climbed into the pilot’s seat, and flew his band on their world tour. Bruce Dickinson, you’re awesome.

“Easy, guys.. I put my pants on just like the rest of you - one leg at a time. Except, once my pants are on, I make gold records.”
ok, so wikipedia says that the bruce dickinson portrayed in the SNL skit by christopher walken is NOT the same bruce dickinson that you are talking about here, but to me the name rang a cowbell, so to speak.
