around me was drenched."

| Trivium
on Maiden V Sharon |
Blabbermouth reports: In the latest issue
of Metal Hammer, TRIVIUM's Matt Heafy and Corey Beaulieu discuss the Ozzfest
debacle in San Bernardino which culminated in IRON MAIDEN being pelted
with eggs while performing and Sharon Osbourne publicly berating the group's
lead singer, Bruce Dickinson, as "a prick."
When TRIVIUM played in Albuquerque following
the San Bernardino incident, all the bandmembers wore IRON MAIDEN shirts.
It was their way of making a point. "All the bands and all the crews knew
what we were trying to say," Heafy stated.
"There were gangs of people from the bands
on the second stage [where TRIVIUM also performed] trying to recruit people
to throw eggs at MAIDEN. Man, I wouldn't dare throw anything at MAIDEN,
not even money. I watched them from right at the front at one show and
I did everything, every gesture, that Bruce asked of the crowd. I was too
afraid not to. That's how commanding that band are, that's the kind of
presence they have. And people want me to throw eggs at them? f*** off!"[see
