Ghost are always entertaining so I'm sure you'll enjoy them. We've got Shinedown supporting Maiden in the UK next month, a band not too enamoured by to be honest, but Maiden will put a a great show as always.

STATUS QUO AQUOSTIC 2017 WINTER TOUR DATES ARE HERE Status Quo are to undertake a full UK Winter Tour, performing hits from across a five decade career, in their celebrated Aquostic style. The tour will hit nine venues across Britain in November and December and tickets will be on sale very soon at this link. These shows will be fully acoustic and feature additional musicians, including female backing vocalists. This 2017 Winter Tour will be the second such set of dates to take place without guitarist Rick Parfitt, whose tragic death at the end of last year shocked and saddened Quo and their fans, but left the band newly motivated to perform and honour these songs to a fan base that remains equally enthused.

IRON MAIDEN BEING SUED BY FORMER LINDISFARNE MANAGER OVER 'HALLOWED BE THY NAME' A story appeared in British low-grade tabloid The Sun over the Bank Holiday weekend which claimed that Iron Maiden's Steve Harris and Dave Murray are being sued over the lyrics to 'Hallowed Be Thy Name'. The song, considered a definitive Maiden number and one of their very best songs by a large number of fans, is the closing track on 'The Number Of The Beast' album, the band's third and very first with Bruce Dickinson and the songwriting credit is Steve Harris only. It is common knowledge that Dave Murray is not a prolific songwriter with the band having joked about this in official publications on several occasions throughout the years. Dave has no songwriting credits on the original 'The Number Of The Beast' album and his name appears only on 'Total Eclipse', a track that was added to the 1988 remastered version of the number one album.

I like Dave Murray; he's always smiling & a very good guitarist. He & Steve are the only original members. If you enjoy what you're doing; you'll never have to work another day in your life. Thanks for sharing John.
