On September 22, during the closing song, “Aces High,” of IRON MAIDEN‘s show at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, an overzealous fan stormed across the stage and made his way to the band members.
After dropping down to his right knee and flashing Janick Gers and Dickinson the devil’s horns hand gesture. Bruce then motioned for the fan to come off before grabbing him by his hand and attempting to bring him to the back of the stage.
However, the fan apparently had other ideas and proceeded to walk forward toward the center of the stage near where bassist Steve Harris was standing, at which point he removed his cap and began furiously headbanging for the entire crowd to see.
Bruce then took matters into his own hands and grabbed him by the back of the shirt and dragged him to the back of the stage where he was escorted off by the MAIDEN stage security.
Fan-filmed video footage can be seen below.
