axlslash Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 http://youtube.com/watch?v=UEgUXXbSFIQI'm a bit biased....I was there. Roger Daltrey's voice gave out durring You Better You Bet. It turned out he was having an alergic reaction. He went backstage to get oxygen and clear his lungs. Pete wasn't really sure what to do (Daltrey walked over, wheezed in Pete's ear that he was leaving, and walked off), so he just went, "well we're gonna do this anyway!" This was the result. Pure excellence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevdo242 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Can't find the version with the spoken introduction to the song but heres the song itself:Rock N Roll SuicideTo set it in context, Bowies just played an amazing set on the last show of the tour and hes about the round things off with a final song.He looks to the crowd and says "Not only is it the last show of the tour, but it's the last show we'll ever do. Thank you."Unknown to fans at the time, he wasn't retiring, he was just retiring his Ziggy Stardust persona.Yeah, I'm obsessed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnrrulz Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I've never been able to like Iron Maiden. I've never really liked Bruce Dikinsons voice and their songs have always just come off as a joke to me. The whole time I watched that video I just thought about how hokey the whole thing is.
