I would assume any Canadian dates would be mid-late April as opposed to early April. I'm going they do a proper UK tour and not just one big (festival) date in England.

It's a long flight back to the East from L.A when they'll be in Detroit on the 5th which is about a 5 hour drive to Toronto. I would say Toronto between April 1st & 4th. Make sense to you? We'll soon find out. Cheers!

Exodus have announced a European tour for next February/March. I've already bagged tickets for the Glasgow show - it's been nearly ten years since they last played up here!
-
Exodus are a solid band I've had the pleasure seeing open for Megadeth and Slayer numerous times. I may be in the minority in saying this but I loved the Rob Dukes era albums. I bought the last one but have not spun the cd very much since it's Oct 2014 release. I've give it a listen again.

I've got "Bonded by Blood" on my MP3 right now. Great work-out tunes!

Skynryd's Gary Rossington is recovering after a Heart Attack Lynyrd Skynyrd's Gary Rossington is recovering at home after suffering a heart attack. The guitarist ? who's the band's last remaining original member ? underwent surgery and his family asked fans via a Facebook post to pray for him. Also on Facebook, the band have issued an update which says Rossington, 63, is expected to make a full recovery. However, two shows have been cancelled as a result. Skynyrd say: "As Gary recuperates after suffering a heart attack late last week, the band regrets to announce that they?ll be cancelling two upcoming performances. Full refunds are available at points of purchase for Friday?s show in Terre Haute, IN, and the Mt Pleasant, MI, show will be rescheduled in 2016. Gary is currently resting at home with his family and is expected to make a full recovery." Rossington's daughter Mary Elizabeth broke the news of her father's condition in a post on the Ronnie Van Zant Facebook fan page. She said: ?They went in to repair and unclog the two stents they did previously in the year which had a blood clot, added a third stent to one vein and in two weeks we will need to go in to do a fourth stent in one of his bypassed veins from 12 years ago. We were very close to losing him this time and just pray that they will develop even better techniques soon to deal with heart disease." Skynyrd are next scheduled to appear live at the Alabama National Fair in Montgomery on November 7. They released live package One More For The Fans in July.

Bruce Dickinson Memoirs Due In 2017 HarperNonFiction and Dey Street have just announced that they will publish Bruce Dickinson?s memoirs in autumn 2017. His book will be a rock memoir like none other, taking in his thirty years with Maiden, his solo career, the weird and wonderful places and situations he?s found himself in, and his recent battle with cancer. Bruce says: ?It was flattering to be approached to write a book about my experiences and it seems an appropriate time to do this as I will have plenty of time on tour next year to work on a book. I am sure flying the 747 out round the World on tour will add to the tale with some unusual scenarios!? Source: http://www.ironmaiden.com
