Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman Attended An Iron Maiden Show

Who doesn’t love Iron Maiden? Metalheads and the uninitiated alike would be surprised to discover how many people are absolutely bananas over the biggest metal band on Earth. Case in point, country star Keith Urban and actress Nicole Kidman attended Iron Maiden’s show on Monday night in Nashville, Tennessee, and it was so amazing that Keith posted a passionate confession to them on his Instagram, including a group photo featuring Maiden, himself, and Nicole.

Keith's post reads: “To the entire @ironmaiden team-

where do i begin?……. You were ALL beyond hospitable- and quite honestly it was a surreal dream come true for me (us) to meet you guys- AND then when u hit the stage….???- HOLY SHIT…… I told Nic [Nicole Kidman] ‘you wanna see THE MASTERS?- here they are’… and you delivered a fucking ATOMIC EXPLOSION of EVERYTHING that makes you THE GREATEST. The playing- the arrangements- the set list- the sound, the lighting- EDDY!!!!- and BRUUUUUUUUCE- good God man- you’re super human.

ALL HAIL THE MATCHLESS, THE PEERLESS IRON MAIDEN.”

A lot of fans were taken aback by Keith's uncensored zeal, insisting in the comments that he should “stay classy” and “watch his language.” Sadly, not everyone can understand the power of Iron Maiden. Their loss.
