For his audition, Janick Gers had to learn 'Iron Maiden', 'Children Of The Damned', and 'The Trooper' in one night.
- The first secret gig by Iron Maiden was on December 23rd 1981, at the Ruskin Arms when the band played as Genghis Khan.
The infamous t-shirt "Powerslave-Now That's What I Call 'Kin Music" was originally created because Powerslave would have got to #1, if it wasn't for a dodgy EMI hits compilation called "Now That's What I Call Music". The band were quite annoyed, so they printed shirts for everyone who worked for EMI saying "Powerslave-Now That's What I Call Fucking Music!"
- "I designed this character with punky hair, and I thought I'll put a corpse in a T-shirt, because I had a picture from the 1960's of this dead American's head stuck on a Vietnamese tank... that's what they said it was... but it may not be true... anyway, I painted this head with punk hair on..." - Derek Riggs talking about the origins of Eddie.
- In 2002, Iron Maiden sold £33,000 worth of merchandise at the first night in Brixton. A record for the venue.
- There are two songs called 'The Wicker Man' - one is from 1997 by Bruce Dickinson, and the other is on Iron Maiden's "Brave New World" album.
-
- When the band recorded their performance at Donington in 1988, the tape was running fast, so the tracks were remastered before being used for B-sides
Most of the albums the band release have messages scratched into the run-out groove part, between the grooves and the label.
- The infamous killing of Eddie at Westfalenhalle, Dortmund, Germany actually went slightly wrong. Before the song Iron Maiden, Dave was supposed to switch to a cheap imitation stratocaster, but got annoyed when he frequently played a chord wrong in another song, so he decided not to switch, and smashed up his favourite, most valuable guitar instead.
- Dave Murray threw his guitar into the crowd at a free festival in Chicago, IL. Of course, he forgot to take his lead out, and hit a guy in the back and it cost $50 to make sure he was okay.
- The first appearance of Nicko in an Iron Maiden video was in 'Number of the Beast', where he fooled around as the "devil."
- At the age of 17, Bruce was expelled from his school for urinating in his headmaster’s dinner.
'Genghis Khan' was a filler written on short notice for the "Killers" album, and was given the working title of 'Jenkin's Barn'.
If Adrian had refused to join Maiden in 1980, the second guitarist Maiden would have asked was Phil Collen, nowadays a Def Leppard fame.
- In 1978, a London barman said, after Steve refused to play when he asked, that he'll make sure Maiden never play in London again.
'Reach Out', 'That Girl' & 'Juanita' were all tracks performed at a secret gig in 1985 as The Entire Population Of Hackney, and were later recorded in the studio by Bruce, Adrian & Nicko. Adrian sang lead vocals on 'Reach Out', and Bruce sang the others.
- The first 100 copies of the Iron Maiden logo were rejected because the 'N' had it's corners shaved into straight lines.
Janick Gers also wrote 'Bring Your Daughter', but wasn't credited.
- 'Mission From 'Arry' is a real argument that was recorded backstage at the Allentown Fairgrounds on 18th August 1983, and was recorded by Bruce. It started when Nicko would do his drum solo after Dave Murray's guitar solo, and Steve was changing the battery in his transmitter However, Steve wasn't ready, so he told the first bloke he saw to go tell Nicko to extend his solo. But this wasn't the drum tech and he stood behind Nicko's drum riser, started shouting to Nicko to get his attention, and eventually caused Nicko to make mistakes in his solo. Nicko went offstage fuming about him, and an short argument took place between him and Steve. Bruce later re-started the argument and recorded it, trying to keep it going for as long as he could. At the end, Steve found the tape recorder, and said "Some cunt's recording this!" Allegedly, there was a big fight about this, which started because Bruce had ideas for the "Powerslave" album on the other side, and Nicko had tried to destroy it. The track was eventually released as 'Mission From 'Arry', written by Harris/McBrain and engineered by Bruce Dickinson!
The band's equipment was stolen in 1978, along with their truck. The band cancelled a few gigs, and placed a desperate advert in a few newspapers around the country. The equipment later turned up in London, and was all there except for two amps, which had been sold.
Rod Smallwood moved to Los Angeles for a while, but had his mushy peas and brown sauce flown-in from a cafe in Huddersfield to LA every morning, and had the English County cricket scores relayed to him wherever he was via his London office every day! The band wrote 'The Sheriff Of Huddersfield' about it. He moved back to London, and the band did a track called 'Bayswater Ain't A Bad Place To Be', which was a 9-minute hidden track on the "Be Quick Or Be Dead" 12" single and CD single.
The "Number Of The Beast" artwork was actually drawn originally for the "Purgatory" single, but the band decided to use the drawing for the NOTB album, and Derek did the other Devil cover on short notice.
