Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson: Singer, Pilot and now Doctor
. Dickinson has some familiarity with the University and vice versa: he earned a degree in history there back in 1979. Turns out young Bruce was using college as a way to buy time while he pursued his real passion: music. While his parents wanted to see him in the army, Bruce told them that he wanted to get a degree first. "That was what they wanted to hear so that was my cover story," he later explained. "When I got down there, I started immediately finding and playing in bands." Beyond his skills as a musician and song-writer, Dickinson is also an author, film script writer and TV broadcaster, a champion fencer, entrepreneur and commercial airline pilot. Bruce currently flies Maiden around the world in the band's customized Boeing 757 called Ed Force One. more on this story hennemusic is an official news provider for the Day in Rock.
