Why Iron Maiden?
Johnny: I learned all the songs from Killers as a kid so when Donny and I found each other and realized we had the same goals in mind, it just made sense to get together and rock some Maiden. Lorenzo: I was looking for a different band, something challenging. When I found the advertisement, I had never played Iron Maiden before but had always listened to them.
