Sources: Too many to mention, but Mick Wall's awesome Iron Maiden biography, Run To The Hills, and Martin Popoff's excellent Judas Priest biography, Heavy Metal Painkiller, were both used as references.

Other publications such as Loudwire, Louder Sound, Metal Injection, Kerrang!, and of course, Wikipedia, were used in sourcing interesting anecdotes and quotes from bands.
