Welcome back to the Luke and Pete show. It is Thursday, the something of something. I've not looked at what day it is. It's the 10th. Really easy. Really, really easy. Really nice and easy. July is flying by just like everything else. We're over half a pretty year now, Peter. I know. Since having a Ben like I presume you feel exactly the same It just seems to be disappearing. Everything just seems to be going very very quickly indeed Yes obscene my son has now gone from you know Amazing to have a baby in the house and to be a dad to just another person tell me what to do Love it big fan of that big fan of that. The amount of times a day I hear,

Daddy, not do that, Daddy. Not do that, Daddy. Oh right, not do that. Sit here, just a lot of sit here and shush. There's a lot of shushing going on. You get shushed a lot, don't you? I haven't had that. I get shushed a lot, yeah. She'll give us a clout a few times a day as well,

which I'm increasingly thinking I should stop. We're very down on that in our house. When our son gets exuberant and throws hands in excitement, we have to kind of say, you can't do that. We're very down on that in our house when our son gets exuberant and throws hands in excitement we have to kind of say you can't do that. Yeah, no. Oh, no. No, I mean it's It's not about it's an anger It's an anger look and she exclusively reserves that treatment to me. So any tips do let us know Considering a shout We've we've we've taught our son

a key line from each member of the Fellowship of the Ring. He's got like little toys of Gandalf, Frodo, Aragorn, Arwen, Gimli, Legolas, and maybe one or two others. And so now he just storms around the house going, you shall not pass, and stuff like that. It's quite funny. Nice, big fan of that.

Big fan of that. He doesn't know what he's doing, but it's still good fun. Did you take him to the Lambeth Country Show? I've got that on my list of topics that you at some point wanted to talk about. Yeah, do you know what? Every so often on the Luke and Pete show, I think, oh, it's great that we don't really plan what we're going to talk about, but sometimes you need a couple of cues, right? So I chuck a couple of bits on a doc. But then I don't forget, I don't talk about them for so long,

I forget. And it's pointless. The Lambert country show was like a month ago. for so long, I forget. And it's pointless. Lambeth Country Show was like a month ago. Was? Yeah. I just never got around to saying anything. So what happened? It's a very bougie festival, isn't it?

Yeah, it's free. It's a free thing for Lambeth residents in Brockwell Park. They do it every year. Although there's a load of controversy around doing things in Brockwell Park, which you may or may not have seen. Right, okay, why's that? Well, basically Lambeth, I think,

started to give permission to a load of promoters to put a festival on Brockwell Park across weekends. I see, right, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then there's some people who are upset because they're saying that it's basically destroying the park's wildlife and stuff. But Lambeth Country Show's separate from that. That's can't always happen, and it's free,

and it's like, you know. It doesn't really. It feels like there might be a tractor pull happening at Lambeth Country Show. It's that kind of thing. Well, the two things are quite amazing. I did go there once. I did go there once. It doesn't really. It feels like there might be a tractor pull happening at Lambeth country. It's that kind of thing. Well, the two things that were amazing. I did go there once. It was very nice. Did you?

Right, the two things that were amazing. One, they had a brand new bin lorry, dustbin lorry. Right, okay, yeah, nice, okay. Just parked there. Yeah. So the kids can go up into the cab. Right. And press all the buttons and stuff.

And my son was absolutely beside himself with excitement. To the point where I had to drag him literally from the cab because it was another kid's turn. Kicking and screaming from the cab. Yeah, and he wants to get straight back at the back of the queue again. And I was like, we're not doing that. I love that. But it was brilliant. And it was the most popular thing at the whole thing for the kids with the exception of

have you heard of a kind of kids I guess it's like a theme park really oh that's probably making it sound a bit grander than it is called Diggerland. Yes I've heard of Diggerland where you can play on. There's one up near where you're from there's one in Durham apparently. There is. Shola and Sammy Amiobi did a photo shoot in the Diggers once. Very enjoyable. Goodness me.

Anyway, there's one in Kent as well, which is not a million miles from South London of course, and Diggerland brought a load of diggers to the country show. Awesome. So we queued for that phrase as we jumped on the digger. I bet they didn't pay their congestion charge. I bet they blocked up arterial roads. They weren't massive, they were little mini ones. Little bad boys, right. Throw four or five and then they got on the back of one trailer probably. Flatbed is right, okay. Yeah and anyway so the point was that you can only go on them on your own

if you're over a certain height and my son isn't over a certain height so he had only go on them on your own if you're over a certain height. And my son isn't over a certain height, so he had to go on it with me, but he was furious that I had to do the controls. You know what he was doing, like, you know, what was going on. It was chaos. It was like beautiful chaos. It was funny. So the Lambert country show is the downside to it is that you just get you know and people are probably gonna say that I'm the same because I've got a mustache and you know

I live work in the entertainment industry but like there's a load of really like tragic dads there. Right okay. While they're in the IPA tent like sampling like a flight of IPAs with like a three-year-old on their shoulders because they don't want to sacrifice their enjoyment of a weekend, you know what I mean, for their own kids. So they're just like, yeah, we'll go, but we're going to be in the beer tent the whole time and we're going to be annoyed that our kids are running around and we're going to sound as many IPAs as possible. I think that's a lovely 80s experience for a child.

IPAs? At least they're outside, at least there's diggers. You know, back when I was a kid, it was like we used to have two parties, the Navy Club Easter party and the Navy Club Easter Party and the Navy Club Christmas Party. And you'd go in, you'd just got some absolutely bargain bucket eggs and there was a Punch and Judy guy and a DJ would just play a bit of Black Lace

and you'd dance around. And you'd supper on the party, get into your dad, he'd give you a sit. In a disgusting naval club, absolutely foul. That sounds roughly adjacent to, my dad wasn't in the Navy, but my friend's dads were, and I used to go to a lot of those. I remember we used to go to this pub

called the Queen's Head, right? Still there actually, every Sunday. And in the summer obviously we'd be in the beer garden, and running around, and a load of other kids and stuff, every Sunday and we in the summer obviously be in the beer garden and running around and then like other kids and stuff and they had like a little kind of family beer garden where you could climb on a tree house and stuff and my dad like really like revealed to me a few years ago that he used to every time we go they used to give me some Guinness. And then after a while, on one occasion,

I came out in a massive rash. And so he had to try and explain it to my mum. And so he didn't give me Guinness anymore after that. I'm not sure you should be telling me that, dad. No, no Guinness. I'm about four years old. Well, to be fair, you've not got the brain damaged. You probably did some good.

You know like the split in the G of Guinness that people fucking can't stop talking about. Is that an organic marketing thing or do you reckon Guinness were behind that in the first place? Probably, yeah maybe, maybe a little bit of, maybe they jumped on it and you know it's really important for them to sort of feel like they're ahead of stuff. I reckon they might have said to a load of influencers, start doing this. Do you reckon, yeah, Can you split the G? Because I because I thought I was just saying that Sarah was going,

I could fucking slam a pint of of Guinness. Like everyone sort of getting very excited. These are the conversations you have with your your partner on holiday. It's good. I would say. You just sit in there. You just go, I could smell a part of Guinness. I could get really aggressive.

Because I blow off a fucking Westlake. Fucking... To be fair, he's probably had a few Guinnesses in his time. Being from Ireland and all. But the G thing, I was going, come on now, the G thing is not something to be proud of. I could finish the whole pint in one go. I'd finish it in a few seconds. Very easy. It's a very smooth drink. Can you stop saying that?

To the barmaid. She's saying, I don't think it's like, I don't think they'd split in the G because that's the most amount of booze they can drink in one mouthful. No, it's a skill, isn't it? It's a skill of judgement rather than excess. I thought it was people were very I don't think they'd split in the G because that's the most amount of booze they can drink in one mouthful. It's a skill of judgement rather than excess. I thought it was people were very proud that they could go and get to the G first. I see. Right. I couldn't do that.

They want you to keep trying and get better at it so you drink more Guinness. Exactly. But you know that broadly quite tedious bloke who's always on Instagram feeds, big fat fella called Rory Sutherland. I'd probably know him by sight. He does a lot of chat that doesn't make any sense at all, but everyone seems to think he's really clever. He's that one of these outside the box kind of consultant marketers guy. Yes, the thing about Jaguar is that I... Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's his... I like is that I like him. I like him.

I'm cheap. I'm cheap. I like it. The thing about dirty fries is... Some of the things he says are quite interesting. Some of them are like... Some of them he just goes too far. He did one once where he was like, it was absolutely ridiculous when you think about

it. If I wanted to catch a bus, first of all I'm thinking you've never caught a bus, but if I want to catch a bus and I want to get to 159, all it says is the final destination. I want to know where it's going. Tell me where it goes. If I'm new in town, I want to know where it goes. And if they did that, it would improve the economy by about 12% every year. It's like, right, stop, right? You're making it up.

I'll tell you why you're making it up. One, right, there's the route on every single bus stop. There is a thing saying where the bus goes. Just look at that. Two, buses are for local people, 95% of the time. They know where they're going. They get it every day to work. Three, what are you gonna have,

just like a massive poster on the front of the bus at every single place it goes? And four, some of them do have them now, on the side of the bus, tells you every stop. The super loop from West Norwood tells you every stop. You're talking shit, Sutherland. But it should, but I think I do agree with him. But he's always talking, it's like an 18 year old bloke

who's just like going, mm, oh yeah, yeah, good. But you do look at the bus as it's coming towards you. I'm like, do I need this bus? Is this bus a one? Oh, got it. And you're looking at the thing going, right, where am I? And some of the drawings of the map of where the, there's the big map thing,

and it tells you where all the bus stops are. And it is completely, obviously as maps are as far as I view and you're kind of going, right, where am I? It doesn't seem to be very clear where I am. Mason is that he said the marketing genius of Guinness is that if you have a good pot of Guinness, it's because it's Guinness. And if you have a bad pot of Guinness, it's never their fault.

It's always because Guinness doesn't travel well or the pipes weren't cleaned or the guy doesn't know how to pour it or it's the wrong glass, right? Guinness never gets the blame for it not tasting very nice. Interesting, yeah. Which is quite clever. Yeah, yeah. So I rate his insight on that. While I'm at the Lambeth country shore.

Speaking of festivals, I went back and I watched all of the, since I was away, not the actual weekend that it happened because I was travelling, but the weekend after I was sort of... We haven't done the Glastonbury deep dive yet, have we? Well, I mean, some things were said. Oh yeah, we didn't do the Glastonbury deep dive yet, have we? Well, I mean, some things were said. Oh, yeah, we didn't do the Neil Young reactions, did we? I mean, the stuff for me. I haven't seen it, Pete. You haven't seen it yet.

No, I'm sorry to cut you off, but I haven't. That's when you meet the training stage. I'll be fuming with me for cutting you off. But the the just before you get into it, I'll have to take your word for it, because on the Saturday night of Glastonbury when Neil Young played, I was watching Iron Maiden at London Stadium. Oh, yes please.

And I meant to record it, but I forgot. And then of course, Neil's not let it be on the old iPlayer, so I haven't had a chance to see it. Oh, is that right? Somebody must have bloody recorded it, knowing full well what he's like. But I've seen Steve Harris doing his thing at West Ham Stadium. Yeah, that's cool. It was really cool. He was a great, he was a great, greatest hit.

It was brilliant. What did you make of... What was Hartlepool's favourite son, Janek like? Well, he's played the guitar. Just played the guitar. Yeah. I don't know if I know what he was like. Kept his head down. I was absolutely convinced he was Scandinavian, but he's from Hartlepool, isn't he? Yeah, mad.

I think, is he Polish? Polish, hardly buddly or something? Of extraction, I think maybe, yeah. What a mix. What was Neil like, anyway? He was good, but very, I think I texted you at the time saying he looks like the smell of Tiger Balm. Like he's just the general...

He looks musty. He looks musty. He looks like he smells of petrol. He's just the general... He looks musty. He looks musty. He looks like he smells of petrol. He's lived in that big ranch for like 40 or 5 years now. But he can still do it. I like his quarter of younger men

doing a bit of the lifting. The Chrome Hearts. I like that I read that he did an 18 minute version of Quite an Obscure album track from the album Greendale, which Idale Which not even I listen to On the main stage headlining at Glastonbury on a Saturday night. You gotta rate that He's still got the tunes though. That's the thing. He's still got he's still got the tunes to kind of back it up I like that he consciously goes right. I think now is the time in the evening

At a festival when there's loads of other options where I separate the wheat from the chaff Ready for the home straight. Everyone fucks off and goes and watches like Charlie XCX or something. Am I going to talk to you in the set? Nope. I'll have one barb halfway through about people watching in their bedroom because I don't like that sort of thing. It's like, what's wrong with you? Yeah, but I think to me, there's no link between being able to write a good song and perform it and white hot badinage. And I think people, artists a lot of the time think, I've written a song. Somebody's going to watch the Mattis 79. Mattis 75.

What'd you call him? Mattis 79? That's a smash your pumpkin song. You They're not on the radio now. But I think a lot of people confuse being popular with being funny. And I don't like, particularly if it's a certain type of music, I don't like to hear them talking in between songs. No, I agree. I agree. But we could have done with some razzle dazzle.

At one point the organists had an organ on some ropes that swung back and forth. And that was all the razzle dazzle. Good stuff. The 1979 slash five, he had an entire stage with conveyor belt installed. Yeah, I saw that set. I thought it was appalling. They're all right. Speaking of Guinness, he came on holding a point of Guinness but he barely touched. Did he? Right, okay. Once you feel the split in the G, you're like, oh fuck. I just find him so effective. Yeah, but he's, yeah, yeah fine, I agree.

And generally I can't be a fan of a musical artist where I can never relax because I'm no more than about 30 seconds away from some fucking impromptu saxophone. I completely agree. But I'll tell you what, I'm a little bit furious with myself for waxing lyrical about how much I enjoyed Olivia Rodrigo's music to my partner because I didn't know she was so good looking. I didn't know what she looked like. I didn't know how old she was. How she got so many boyfriends or ex-boyfriends at 21. Fucking hell. I'm a problem man. I'm into fucking

bubblegum pop girls. Jesus Christ. I like their music. And I was like, listen this is really good. And we'd listen to it in the car and stuff. And I was like, oh she's way too good looking and way too young. Oh dear. You're not allowed to enjoy an artist if they're attractive.

It's a problem, Luke. You have to- Well, she brought out Robert Smith, so that balanced it out. Fine, okay, absolutely fine. I would say that, that's a weird one, isn't it? Why would he do that? I would say that I'm very much enjoying

the new trope of six music dads. Oh yeah. Where it's basically- They're the ones I'm talking about at the Lump of Country show. It's exactly the same thing. Who are like obsessed with like going to like gigs where they've got like a female like bassist or something and spending the entire camera roll on their phone just taking pictures

of the bassist. Oh, I didn't know that bit. I just meant the six music dads were like... Yeah, there's loads. The six music dads is like the blokes who are who like, you know, indie music, but as long as there's a female in the lineup and they just spend all their time basically just looking at her. You just go straight to the source and just go on for the one of the world's biggest pop stars instead. Good point actually. Yeah. Good point. Road test. You're a capital radio dad. I'm a capital radio dad. Yeah. Do you want to hear the list of artists very briefly that I thought were good? Yes please. Bob. Prodigy. Prodigy were good. Bob.

I didn't watch Bob Villainset because it got taken off iPlayer. It's a good point actually, yeah. I saw Mecap, I thought they were good. Charlie XCX was good. Turnstyle were probably my highlight. They're brilliant. Everyone's been raving about Turnstyle. It's all about how good Turnstyle were probably my highlight. They're brilliant. Everyone's been raving about Turnstyle. It's all about how good Turnstyle were, right? Was that the band that became Pulp? Is that the one who advertised the Turnstyle and it was Pulp?

That was Patchwork. I've avoided them at the fucking play. Turnstyle was so good that Jim Campbell, a man who likes to hedge his bets, came out with a proper Luke Moore type statement when I walked into the office the other morning saying did you watch Turnstile last night, because they're on the Sunday, and he just looked at me and went, best band in the world right now. Oh, hello.

I was like, Jim, you've never been that definitive. No, exactly. You're always so polite normally. He's a coucher. That's how convinced he was of them. I'm gonna have to listen then aren't I You should you'd like a hard melodic hardcore kind of Bit of metal in there. Yeah, I know that delicious and sure take a short break and come back with some batteries and that

I'm done on my artist yet. Oh, sorry. I thought you'd done them all You just told us about the best band in the world. Why set off any others on the list? I do like it. And the final brilliant band I was really impressed with over Glastonbury weekend, Iron Maiden. Go to break. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Bring your batteries to the Luke and Pete show! Let them go! Let them go! It's the battery section of the Luke and Peach Show of a Thursday, and he's got in touch, hello Andrew.

Boyed by my near miss a few weeks ago during, I thought I'd chance my arm again. This time I let you submit a pair of Vonico Ultra Alkaline. I found the air-conditioning remote of my hotel in Malaysia, in Malacca, I think that's how you pronounce that. Hopefully I could do a bit better this time round. Thank you for keeping me company during the long bus and train journeys whilst I've been away. I don't like bus journeys but I've reached that time in my life where I think bus journeys might be for me, you know.

You just sit somewhere for ages, it gets you to where it needs to be as long as you know where you're going. If the side of the bus tells you where you're supposed to be going. I think sitting on a bus for ages, I would absolutely love that right now. I don't know why. I think that's part of the reason why I love a train journey, you know? Yeah, not that one from Glasgow we had to take together

for the Glasgow Rambler Show. Was I sat next to you on that one? I think we sort of, no, I was with Vish with some cat enthusiasts. Oh, that's right right I was with Jim. Yeah but there's something about, I mean I went up to Scotland last year, late last year and the train was amazing. Peace and quiet, reading my book, laughing stuff. Free shortbread, beautiful. Now you're talking. What's the battery? The battery is Vonico Ultra Alkaline.

How am I spelling that please, Peter? V-O-N-I-K-O Ultra Alkaline. Okay, Andrew, you are the second person to send those in. Oh my, Andy. Paul Smith sent those in in April. So they've been seen only once before. So a very rare battery. Worth a look, absolutely.

But sadly not quite a new player. It's almost more tantalising to have one that just misses out by one email entry. I think we could have a little sort of fools, you know, it's sort of, you know, the gangsters of the Lugapiccio battery daddy sort of world, just kind of like have a little sort of gallery of them, the vonocores of this world. Alex has got in touch. Hi there, this battery energy was found in the middle of a rainforest in Madagascar in the field with Q. It was far away from all paths, so God knows how it got there. Also, this moth looks like a battery. Lot of confusing situations here.

So it looks like a battery that is slightly malformed. So one might suggest it's been thrown out of a plane. It's a pretty cool looking moth, though. It's a pretty cool looking moth, and it looks like the battery in question. All the same major colours and stuff. So all the major food groups. How do you feel when you hear that someone's listening to this show from Madagascar?

I think that's fine, isn't it? You sort of, where the best lemurs, or the only lemurs come from. Yeah, fun. Yeah, true. Good on them. So energy battery. So I think this is a new player. Right.

Yeah. So I think this is a new player. Right. Yeah. There's loads of different types of battery that have the word energy in the title. For example, you know, Vata energy, active energy, XZ energy. But in terms of just energy, I can only find this one. So I think this is a new player. So I'm going to, I'm going to bestow the honor upon you, Alex. Congratulations to you. The battery you found in the middle of the rainforest in Madagascar is I think a new player. And thanks for sending the picture of the moth as well as a beautiful little moth. I'd love to know what the species is. If you could tell me that, that'd be great. If you could tell me that, if you could, you could, we could probably put it into

Google lens to find out precisely what it is. But either way, since it is a moth, since it is in, since if it ever found its way into my house, I would stamp on it. Joel says, I just would, because you'd know my fears and moths and you know, I will save. Oh, I saved a bird this morning. A bird was like just lying on the floor going, walking out and he'd flown into the window and I picked it with my hand I picked it up showed it to my daughter as if a little free zoo free bit of zoo look at his bird and then so said get that out of the house it's gonna start flying away I said it's not and as soon as I took it outside, it started flying away.

And I was like, oh, that was a lucky escape. What kind of bird was it? There was a four Jays in my back garden the other day. A little Sparrow. Oh, lovely. Sparrow. Sparrow's a delicate little thing. Beautiful bird.

We're a big magpie house. Just a lot of magpies scrapping and fighting and... They're everywhere these days. Very successful species, it seems to me. Yeah, very, very successful. Right, Joel has got in touch. I'm in a villa in sunny, sunny Spain. I was told by the TV to

Remplace las baterias. Within the remote I found these batteries. Unsure that these have been submitted before. Plenty of art has kicked around the villa as well as the Vincente del Bosque's B.A.T. battery. That's the one that Joel's kick around the villa as well as the Vincente Del Bosque's BAT battery

that's the one that Joel's found. Yeah so these are a double A battery BAT bat if you like and I can't find these in the inbox either although it is obviously very difficult to search for as well just as a phrase so I'm gonna say I don't remember seeing them and I'm sure you don't either, Peter. So I'm going to say they're a new player, and if anyone's got any objections, please re-forward an email from whenever it was you sent it, and we'll take a view on it.

But for now, Joel, you can have the honor. Why is the villa telling someone to replace batteries in their TV remotes? That's absolutely outrageous. You've got to do it yourself. Yeah, I agree. You've got to part with the service, shouldn't it? Yeah, I completely agree. So that's two out of three then for this week's batteries. Looks like it, mate. Not bad.

Cracking! That's great news. Well done, everyone. Before we go, can I tell you a... Oh, by the way, the Iron Maiden show, someone fainted right next to me. Whoa. Scary, that, innit? It's weird that your body just suddenly goes, let's just turn this all off. Yeah, hard reset. He was fine. I mean, he's led away by the St John ambulance types, but he, it was really hot.

And I think drink might have been taken. It's a shame. In fact, I'm just going to say it. He was definitely getting pissed. And, uh, and the load of people had to wave, like wave and wave from right in the middle of the standing area of the London stadium. Like it's like 80,000 people there. And eventually St. John's, St. John's Amherst came over and kind of looked after him. He walked, he managed to get up and walk away. Um, but it's quite frightening.

Yeah, it is. Yeah. Gave his head a good old bonk. It's the evil that men do. Drink too much in hot situations. Good, that's very good. Yeah, thank you. But you know what though, speaking of that, I'll tell you what, those metal, those legacy

metal artists, I mean what a kind of flex it is. Yeah I mean, like no PR, no real radio play, booking a stadium show on the Saturday of Glastonbury and selling it out to 80,000 people whilst slagging off Glastonbury. Brilliant. Yeah, well, I mean, they've always been very successful. Was it, I think it was ACDC, actually,

who used to do, between them and Metallica, Metallica used to complain about obviously the Napster and MP3s and stuff. ACDC just looked sconce at that situation and went, you know what, why don't we just find out where everyone is that is stealing our music basically and we'll go on tour there. And they were just selling out a hundred thousand fucking seated American R size stadiums and stuff. The most recent footage of their shows is not good. Right. Yes. Yeah. They should stop. Well, but mainly they can still do it. Dickinson. But their band still

sound good. I mean, ACD to the band didn't even sound good. Bruce Dickinson's 66 and his voice was perfect. I imagine he's the sort of person who looks after himself though. His interests aren't heavy drugs and booze and stuff. I imagine it's the sort of person who looks after himself though. His interests aren't heavy drugs and booze and that stuff. I imagine it's more lofty situations. Well I've read his autobiography, which is the worst, the saddest claim to fame ever. And I don't think he's ever really been into that lifestyle, even as a young man. So that's the only story. But I was with a mate of mine who's very musically talented himself.

And he was saying, and he and I were chatting about it, and he was saying that he thinks like the vast majority of the songs they did, they've not even changed the key on them. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. For his voice, which is crazy. I think a lot of, look, same with Jarvis Cocker and Pulp, except there's one song that he can't sing so high. It's not quite the same vocal style well you know it's very high isn't it I suppose yeah yeah cuz a lot of a lot of acts like I think last

time Bon Jovi was seen I think he did sort of banged it down at least to to they do they did yes I mean your voice changes over time but but no one is going look forget what I think time but no one is going... Look, forget what I think about pulp. No one is going to a pulp show coming away and going did you hear how good Cocker's voice was? Come on. Well, if you're known for being shit at it, I think more people would be talking about it to be honest. Because I remember like in the 90s, him live, he was awful. He was absolutely awful. It's like seeing... If you saw Taken Back Sunday might one of my favorite emo bands

Playing and they and the singer was good. You'd be like fuck what has happened? What's he given up? What's he stopped doing? He should you know continue that particular bit. They are known for being Atrocious, but yeah the dream my heart of the Iron Maiden shows is when Dickinson introduces pretty much every song. So you don't tend to, or you don't always hear just the opening riff or whatever, but you'll get Dickinson going, the rhyme of the ancient mariner. And everyone cheers. And then the song starts. Passion doll. Can't see the cockers not doing that. Some of the visuals as well are so good.

Some of the visuals are like so over the top. It's ridiculous. They look like super modern, really impressive 90s screensavers. Yes, I could see that. Eddie's always looked shit. Eddie came on. I don't know how they did it. So the last time I saw them,

it was a massive Eddie whose head would come out over the crowd. So it was like a gigantic 30 foot wide mechanoid head, right? Right, okay. So you can't understand how they did that. Eddie this time was like, it looked like possibly someone on stilts with a massive suit on. Right. But it was like too big for that.

Too big for that. Right. Okay. I don't know. I mean, you can do lots of things with servo motors these days, I suppose. No, it was definitely, it was definitely a person inside it. A person. It was good though. Interesting. Well, I'm sure there'll be a making of. What Eddie's got is, Eddie the mascot has also got, he is frightening, but he's also got a bit of the slapstick about him.

So at one point he came on with his laser eyes hunting down the guitarist, right? And if you're a kid, it would be frightening because he's also got a massive axe in his hand. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. But then halfway through him stalking around the stage, Steve Harris just hits him in the balls with his bass guitar and he goes, oh, like that. And it's like, yeah, it's like snapstick cover. He's like the Marx brothers as well.

Did his lasers turn off? Did his laser eyes turn off? They went, woo-woo-woo. Oh, lovely. Big fan of that. Anyway. Yes. This has been The Looking Pete Show for another Thursday. We're back
