Former IRON MAIDEN Singer Explains Canadian Tour Cancellation

June 19, 2003

Former IRON MAIDEN frontman Paul Di'Anno has released an official statement regarding the recent cancellation of his Canadian tour.

His statement reads as follows:

"With the greatest regret, we have to announce that the entire tour of Canada has been cancelled due entirely to the actions taken by the Canadian Tour Promoter.

"This situation was totally out of our control and we sincerely apologize to all of the fans, venues and friends that have been let down by this promoter's actions and we promise to make it up to you in the very, very near future.

"We are now re-scheduling a new Canadian tour with a new and good Canadian promoter and details will be available soonest."

The trek, which was set to kick off June 12 at The Dungeon in Oshawa, was expected to feature a special collaboration with the all-female violin trio WRATH CHILDREN at several dates, including last Friday's (June 13) stop at The Opera House in Toronto.

As previously reported, Di'Anno recently spent time in a recording studio working on the first all-acoustic album of MAIDEN classics, due later in the year.
