The Unrestrained Memoirs of a Founding Member of the Killer Krew, the Legendary Roadies of Iron Maiden. An Insider’s Look Like Never Before at the Formative Years of the Most Important Heavy Metal Band in History.

Welcome to the world of Loopy, the first roadie of the Killer Krew, who followed Iron Maiden nearly every single day from the time singer Paul Di’Anno joined until the recording of the masterpiece Powerslave.

Sex, drugs, and rock’n’roll narrated like never before in an official document about Maiden. Thanks to a childhood friendship with Di’Anno, Steve “Loopy” Newhouse ended up almost by chance in the dusty cellars where a legend was born, a band that at the time was still virtually unknown, but already promised great things. From there began his career as a roadie that would take him everywhere with Iron Maiden, from their first shows with the new singer to their establishment as a leading band on the international heavy metal scene.

From endless rehearsal sessions in a tiny studio, to concerts at the Ruskin Arms and then all over England, bouncing from one pub to another and crossing London in rickety cars or cumbersome vans, Loopy’s memories tell us about musicians and roadies coming and going, beers, laughs, tears, troubles, beers, tours, records, and more beers.
