PAUL DI’ANNO FINDS IRON MAIDEN “BORING.” HE ALSO HATES BLOWJOBS.

From the “I swear to God I’m not bitter” files: former Iron Maiden singer Paul Di’Anno apparently went off during a Q&A in Argentina last month, comparing Steve Harris to Adolf Hitler for his (allegedly) tyrannical grip over the band, which Di’Anno also called “boring.”

First of all, there’s a lot of things you can call Maiden, but “boring” is not one of them. You’ll only find Maiden boring if you hate having fun. Or happen to have your panties in a twist because you’re not in the band anymore. And being in the band is the only worthwhile thing you ever did with your life. And it was decades ago. And you’re nowhere near death. And people won’t stop asking you about it.

Second of all – and I’m not just saying this as a Jew, but, rather, as a rational, thinking human – comparing a former band mate who (again, allegedly) isn’t willing to compromise to a dictator who started a war and killed millions of people based on their race or religion is, y’know, in poor taste at best. But mostly it just makes me think that Di’Anno is a moron who is exactly as successful as he deserves to be. Actually, he’s probably more successful than he deserves to be.

When reached for comment, Steve Harris responded “Who the fuck is Paul Di’Anno?”

Here’s video of Di’Anno securing his spot in fanboy hell. The offending comments come around the 6:25 mark.
