Bryan Beasley* Talk about a rock crossover we didn’t know we needed. On Thursday night at San Francisco’s Comic-con weekend kick off party, Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson surprised fans and joined Billie Joe Armstrong‘s the Coverups onstage.
The rock icons dove into an impassioned cover of Mott the Hoople’s classic “All the Young Dudes,” with Armstrong playing his signature red Les Paul as he and Dickinson harmonized. Both Dickinson and Armstrong have a storied history with the song: Dickinson recorded a version for his 1990 solo album Tattooed Millionaire, while Armstrong credited David Bowie, who wrote track, on Green Day‘s 2009 hit “21 Guns,” which shares a similar melody.
