Up the Irons Vocals: Jos Severens Guitar: Sam Lemmens Guitar: Laurent Schijns Bass: Joey Bruers Drums: Tom Heijnen Up The Irons Vocals: Jos Severens Guitar: Sam Lemmens Guitar: Laurent Schijns Bass: Joey Bruers Drums: Tom Heijnen www.UpTheIrons.nl Bio English Up The Irons is a well-known name in both the Iron Maiden realm as in “tribute-land” worldwide. Packing more than 15 years of experience, the band has done loads of shows everywhere in the world. Up The Irons consists of five very experienced Maiden maniacs, which is a guarantee for an explosive, high-energy performance. All the Iron Maiden blockbuster hits, combined with other fan-favourites, makes Up The Irons the ultimate Iron Maiden Tribute band for both the casual rock-fan as well as the hardcore, rabid Maiden fans that the bandmembers are themselves. Make sure to witness the best you can get, and maybe Eddie will join you for a snack as well Some examples of the more memorable shows are tours with Paul Di’Anno, playing Graspop Metal Meeting in 2006 and 2015 (for an estimated crowd of 25.000 metal maniacs!), touring Italy, France, Belgium, Germany and the UK besides Holland, being supported by Lauren Harris and many more. Not by any means downplaying the fact that the band still massively enjoys playing gigs anywhere, anytime in any country! Highlights: Up The Irons was founded in 1999 in Tilburg, the Netherlands. They have toured with former Iron Maiden singer Paul Di’Anno as a special guest to their shows, and Dennis Stratton (guitarist on the first Iron Maiden album) played a full set with Up The Irons on the Maiden Day 2016. Lauren Harris, daughter of Iron Maiden bass-player Steve Harris, supported Up The Irons with her ‘Lauren Harris Band’. Up The Irons headlined a couple of Iron Maiden Fan Club Conventions in Holland. Steve Harris (Iron Maiden Bass-player) visited an Up The Irons show (Nov. 2006) and gave lots of compliments to the band. The band got invited for the regular Maiden football-matches, which are organised by Steve Harris himself, for a couple of times when Maiden was playing in Holland. Bio Dutch Up The Irons is de grootste Iron Maiden Tribute van Nederland. Een show boordevol energie, met decor en uiteraard Eddie, benadert Iron Maiden tot in perfectie. De nummers, tot op de noot nauwkeurig uitgevoerd, in combinatie met het enthousiasme van vijf die-hard Iron Maiden fans, staat garant voor een spectaculaire avond voor jong en oud. Alle hits, aangevuld met minder bekende Iron Maiden krakers komen voorbij. Up The Irons komt uit Tilburg en bestaat al sinds 1999. De band heeft veel (inter)nationale ervaring, waarbij podia als Graspop (25.000 bezoekers), 013, Spa Tributefest (Belgie) en podia in Düsseldorf en Dortmund al voorbij zijn gekomen. Ook heeft Up The Irons getourd in Engeland, Duitsland, Frankrijk, Belgie en Italië. Ook met Iron Maiden zelf heeft Up The Irons contact. Zo is er getourd met oud-zanger Paul Di’Anno, heeft Dennis Stratton (gitarist van het 1e album) shows meegespeeld, en is Steve Harris in Eindhoven zelfs de show komen bekijken en heeft backstage zijn complimenten uitgesproken. Met enige regelmaat is Up The Irons gast en deelnemer tijdens de voetbalwedstrijden die Iron Maiden in verschillende landen organiseert. Kortom, de verbinding met Iron Maiden is enorm sterk, wat je terugziet op het podium! Bio German Up The Irons sind nicht nur innerhalb des Iron Maiden-Universums ein Begriff, der Name ist auch in der internationalen Szene der Tribute-Bands allgemein bekannt. Mit mehr als 15 Jahren Bühnenerfahrung spielte die Band bereits jede Menge Konzerte auf der ganzen Welt. Up The Irons besteht aus fünf routinierten Maiden- Enthusiasten; eine explosive und spannungsgeladene Show ist daher garantiert. All die bekannten Iron Maiden- Klassiker, kombiniert mit weiteren Lieblingssongs der Fans, machen Up The Irons zur ultimativen Iron Maiden Tribute-Band – sowohl für Gelegenheits-Rocker, als auch für eingefleischte Maiden-Fanatiker, so wie es die Bandmitglieder selbst sind. Verpasse ja nicht die Chance, das Beste vom Besten live mitzuerleben. Vielleicht kommt sogar Eddie vorbei und leistet dir bei einem Snack zwischendurch Gesellschaft Tourneen mit Paul Di‘Anno, die Auftritte beim Graspop Metal Meeting 2006 und 2015 (vor einer Kulisse von rund 25.000 Metal-Fans!), das Touren durch Italien, Frankreich, Belgien, Deutschland, das Vereinigte Königreich und natürlich die Niederlande, sowie die Shows mit Lauren Harris im Vorprogramm sind nur einige Beispiele für unvergessliche Up The Irons-Erlebnisse. Dies soll jedoch nicht den Eindruck vermitteln, als würde die Band nicht nach wie vor jeden Auftritt, zu jeder Zeit und an jedem Ort enorm genießen. Highlights: Up The Irons wurden im Jahre 1999 in Tilburg in den Niederlanden gegründet und tourten bereits mit Ex-Iron Maiden-Frontmann Paul Di‘Anno, der als Special Guest der Band auftrat. Dennis Stratton, als Gitarrist auf Iron Maidens erstem Album zu hören, spielte beim Maiden Day 2016 sogar das komplette Set mit. Außerdem eröffnete Lauren Harris, Tochter des Iron Maiden-Bassisten Steve Harris, einige Konzerte mit ihrer ‘Lauren Harris Band’. Up The Irons traten schon mehrfach als Headliner bei Iron Maiden Fanclub-Treffen in Holland auf. Im November 2006 besuchte sogar Iron Maiden-Bassist Steve Harris ein Konzert und war ebenfalls angetan – seine Begeisterung drückte er mit lobenden Worten und vielen Komplimenten gegenüber der Band aus. Weitere Höhepunkte waren die Einladungen zur Teilnahme an den regelmäßig stattfindenden Maiden- Fußballspielen – organisiert von Steve Harris persönlich – während Iron Maiden auf Tour in Holland unterwegs waren. .

Iron Maiden, of course, have a number of memorable songs – with strong, melodic choruses – like ‘Run to the Hills’, ‘Fear of the Dark’, ‘Aces High’ and ‘2 Minutes to Midnight’ – quite unusual for a metal band.
