Iron Maiden mock the lip syncing phenomenon

submitted by xgabex

Metal legends Iron Maiden make a mockery out of a German TV show that required them to use playback and lip syncing instead of actually playing the song. I wish I could've seen the faces of the network execs once this got going.

I never cared for Iron Maiden but I gotta give them credit for this FU moment.

Awesome!!!!
Steve Harris & Nicko are doin' the singing, they sound a lot like Bruce...

Kudos for not bowing to the corporations... lol!

This is great. Comedy, anyone?

They probably weren't asked to come back. But they probably didn't care.

Ashlee Simpson breathes a sigh of relief, as one of the world's biggest acts is found to be lip-synching.

Then she realizes they were mocking it, and she takes her talentless body back to the US to be impregnated by a Fall Out Boy.
