"Iron Maiden: Flight 666", the feature-length
documentary film
which follows the
IRON
MAIDEN bandmembers on the first leg of their
"Somewhere Back In Time World Tour" in February
and March of 2008, will be released on extended Blu-ray and DVD
formats, alongside a double-CD soundtrack album and limited edition
double-vinyl picture disc. It will be available Monday, May 25 on
EMI Records in Europe, and Tuesday, June 9 on
EMI Records Canada and
UMe in the
USA.
For
"Iron Maiden: Flight 666",
IRON
MAIDEN was accompanied everywhere by award-winning
documentary makers
Banger Productions from Toronto
in Canada, who have received international critical acclaim for
their previous movies
"Metal: A Headbanger's
Journey" and recently
"Global Metal".
Producer/presenter
Sam Dunn and his team bring an
intimate, behind-the-scenes view of this remarkable journey, with a
close look at the logistics involved and following Team Maiden in
the cockpit, on the plane and on and offstage, getting to the heart
of this global adventure of a band that has very rarely even let
cameras backstage before.
Shot in high definition and with superb 5.1 surround sound, mixed
by the band's producer
Kevin "Caveman" Shirley,
"Flight 666" brings to the screen all the drama,
excitement and hysteria that followed the band around the world
every time Ed Force One (the band's plane) touched down in a new
country. The film documents the intensity of the punishing show
schedules, the struggle with the time zones, the pressures of
ensuring that every performance matched the energy of the many
thousands of ecstatic and expectant fans from many cultural
backgrounds, unusual angles from the spectacular shows... and, of
course, the fun had on the way!
A special international "Iron Maiden Day" is being planned for
April 21 with simultaneous showings of
"Iron Maiden: Flight
666" in selected digital cinemas around the world.
As a very special bonus for the fans,
MAIDEN has
included a second disc of the entire set from the 2008 segment of
this tour with the DVD (and as a long-play Blu-ray). Sixteen songs
from sixteen different cities in eleven countries around the world,
for the first time ever encompassing such varied places and
cultures in one concert. (See full track listing below). In
addition to a standard double DVD,
EMI will
release a special souvenir limited-edition deluxe DVD with 30-page
booklet. The soundtrack audio version of the live show will be
available on two CDs, as a limited-edition vinyl set with two
picture discs, and a digital download especially for those fans who
do not have DVD access or just want to enjoy the show as a great
live album. All are lavishly packaged as an ultimate memento of a
tour to remember!
To recognize the global phenomenon of
MAIDEN, the
Blu-ray/DVD are also subtitled in Hindi, Japanese, Dutch, German,
Spanish, Brazilian, French, Italian, Portuguese and Swedish.
Comments band manager
Rod Smallwood; "It's been a
mammoth undertaking. From the first twinkle in
Bruce's eye it's taken about three years to put
band, crew and equipment in a giant flying 'splitter bus', to go
through all the long and tiresome prep and safety regulations and
planning, to the actual filming and of the tour itself, through to
post production and right up to putting together all these items in
the very best quality possible for our fans."
"It's great that with Maiden Day on Tuesday April 21, we can give
our fans the opportunity of seeing this digitally on big screen in
Hi Def with the full-on 5.1 sound experience with other fans around
them. It was also very rewarding that it has won the prestigious
SXSW Film Festival Award for Best Music
Documentary.
"The
'Somewhere Back in Time Tour' reached almost
2 million fans in 39 countries and, if there is one thing l know
from managing
MAIDEN all these years, it's that
our fans are not happy to wait too long, so we are delighted that
EMI (
Ume USA) are rush-releasing
the DVD. This closes the chapter on an absolutely brilliant
experience delving into the past for the band, myself and my team,
the crew and hopefully all of you fans out there. After the summer
and some deserved time off, we will concentrate on the 'new,' with
the band starting to put together material for a brand new studio
album due sometime later in 2010. And, of course, after that we
will look forward to seeing all our fans again!!"
