Iron Maiden sure like to party!
 
 


Iron Maiden partied at a bar in Norway the other night and their $3275 bar tab receipt has made its way onto the internet.

78 pints o Guiness! They must have taken their entire road crew out!

Adolfo 08.19.2010 08:21 PM

This prices are fucking mad. so 1 pint of Guiness is 66 euros? these people are fucking retarded. they could have had all that shit for like less than 500.

noisereductions 08.19.2010 08:25 PM

What the hell are you guys on?
That's a pub in Bergen (Norway), the currency is not $ nor euros, it's Kr as radarmaker said.
The total is around 2400 euros (a bit more actually) or 3200something dollars, and 66kr for a pint of guinness is a LOW price for Norway. Alcoholic beverages cost A LOT there.

Toilet & Bowels 08.20.2010 03:51 AM

this isn't that impressive, a friend of mine who tends to go a bit wrong when he drinks too much went on a stag do in prague and woke up the next morning to find a bar receipt in his pocket for £3000, last year he did the same in london but for £2000

Genteel Death 08.20.2010 04:21 AM

78 pints between, say, 10/11 rock and roll people doesn't seem like that crazy an amount of alcohol consumption, even if you throw in the shots.

i did the conversion on a website and it said 254 euros?
thought that was cheap.

Rob Instigator 08.20.2010 08:41 AM

that's still a LOT of beverages!

What's a slippery nipple? Whatever it is, they had 27 of them.

Rob Instigator 08.20.2010 10:49 AM

maybe a buttery nipple with a thick loogie in it?

Get ready for a revelation, young one.

Rob Instigator 08.20.2010 11:32 AM

nicfot's got the research kickin

nicfit 08.20.2010 11:48 AM

Ha ha I used to drink that stuff a while ago, from time to time.
Wiki made things easier to explain ;).

knox 08.20.2010 11:53 AM

it sounds really good, but you'd only be able to have one or two without getting sick of it?

slippery nipple is a girlie drink, as are a lot of the drinks on that tab. Only manly drinks I see are the Jack D's, the Vodka and the beers.

Rob Instigator 08.20.2010 12:01 PM

groupies gotta drink toooo right?

As chika said it's kind of a "girlie drink", it's not devastating he he, but I think I never had more than a couple in the same night.
I like better plain Sambuca con le mosche.

I agree w/you on that, chica. To get really shitfaced, I would start off with sweet-tasting drinks then move on to the straight stuff.

How about Baby Guiness shots?

Do most men consider that a girlie-man drink as well?
 

knox 08.21.2010 12:11 PM

maybe i should try it as a meal.

doctors used to prescribe it to pregnant women because of its health benefits. i know that my dad used to give me it when i was a kid to help me sleep.

all beer is good for you.
i read somewhere that pregnant women have been holding that myth "dark beer is good for pregnant women" just so they are not completed deprived of booze for 9 months.

my mom used to give me shots of brandy, some doctor told her it'd help me wanna eat more and get stronger. I was devastated when she decided to replace that for some real vitamin formula.

chicka 08.21.2010 03:17 PM

My Mom used to use whiskey for tooth pains. We were supposed to spit it out after swishing. I swallowed my first one at eight years old talk about getting hit by a train.

knox 08.21.2010 03:33 PM

My grandma taught me how to drink red wine to ease menstrual pain. It works, you have enough of it and you'll be too numb. But I think her point had something to do with blood circulation, again, another excuse to drink.

Magic Wheel Memory 09.06.2010 10:03 PM

I'm not that impressed. How many people do you think were there, when you consider road crew, management, friends, etc? If this were a party for 50 people, that wouldn't be all that much booze.

Now, if this were just the band... Holy shit! :+)

this is what I hate the most. the lower class British and Irish flying out to Prague and Bratislava for their stag parties to get shitfaced for cheap and then get naked in public, harass our women and piss in our fountains. the best way to develop our turism industry, for sure.
