** And caipirinhas seem to be a RunningGag with Bruce and Brazil since that gig- at the 2013 gig at Rock in Rio, Bruce tells the crowd that he only knows 4 Portugese words, one of them being "caipirinha", which results in a hilarious mixed reaction from the audience. During his usual pyro banter during "Phantom of the Opera", one of the things he shouts is "too many caipirinhas!!!".

* In a concert at Brazil, a banner reading "Play 'Alexander the Great'" was thrown at the stage. Bruce's response? [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEIgAJm03ZM This]]. Hard to pick what's funnier: an EpicRocking song played it in the ''kazoo'', or the crowd showing they don't know the lyrics.
** Speaking of shows in Brazil. During their gig at the city of Belém, Pará, Bruce Dickinson told the tale of how he almost didn't make it to the show because he suffered from severe diahrrea after drinking ''caipirinha'' earlier that day. For those not in the known, ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caipirinha caipirinha]]'' is a ''heavy'' typical cocktail.
