I was the guy who "asked who narrates NOB", actually, I asked who narrates on Rime and Alexander, since we all know who narrates on NOB... Nicko started mumbling sth about McGoohan, then he mumbled the tune to Alexander the Great, he obviously didn't know... so he pointed at me and shouted... Who knows?!! It could Have been You! I think I'll remember that moment for the rest of my life 
and that stupid reporter says I asked about NOB... 
Moved to Iron Maiden news and slightly edited. Thanks!
I was there too
Nicko was FANTASTIC....with his humor and a lot of talking....it was good for Maiden Fans ONLY!!!!
he even trade one of his kit's cymbals with a fan from the croud.....
Anthenora played well ,but the singer was terrible!!!!
anyway....it was a kind of Maiden dose for as because we didn't see Iron Maiden live for the Dance of death tour...
and , as Nicko said, they will be invited to Rockwave Festival on summer!!!!
UP THE IRONS NICKO!!!!!
