I am taking a break, but not a huge break because the Maiden record is actually happening right now, and I am recording it as we speak, well not right as we speak, but close.
Well, it's a nice quiet time for Iron Maiden, and I'll be releasing a new solo album next year, so this is a really good time for the managing out my solo career, which is quite well.
There are a lot of stuff on the record that I am thinking is generic but actually it is just as good as everybody else who is putting stuff out at the time.
That gives me tremendous encouragement and optimism for the human race in general, that people choose to go off and do their own things.
I'll be arriving at the last possible minute and walking on stage raging and pillaging and then disappearing immediately afterwards.
