I'll be attending the July 15th Maiden show, at Blossom Music Center. I saw Maiden there on June 12th, 2008, on Maiden's Somewhere Back in Time tour, and it's a pretty awesome venue. Great times. =)

BRUCE DICKINSON’S RADIO SHOW CANCELLED

Along with being Iron Maiden’s singer and a licensed pilot, for the past eight years, Bruce Dickinson has also had his own radio show on England’s digital radio station BBC 6 Music.

On the program, Dickinson introduced some classic metal tunes and interviewed big names in music.

However, according to MusicWeek.com, due to an overhaul of its digital services, the station has pulled the plug on Bruce’s program.

Bruce’s final show will air in late April.
