August 22, 2005

According to a posting at MaidenFans.com, IRON MAIDEN drummer Nicko McBrain has scheduled a drum clinic on September 26 in Brighton, England. The event, which is being sponsored by GAK, will also include an appearance by RAGE drummer Mike Terrana. The clinic will take place at Komedia, Gardner Street, Brighton, BN11UN. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. and the show starts an hour later. Tickets are £8 and can be reserved on (01273)691678.

As previously reported, IRON MAIDEN's latest single, "The Trooper" has entered the official U.K. Top 10 singles chart at position No. 5.

"The Trooper", taken from the classic IRON MAIDEN album "Piece of Mind", was originally released as a single in July 1983 and reached No. 12 on the U.K chart. It has long been a live favorite and is a particular highlight of the current tour which is based around the band's first four albums.

IRON MAIDEN recently announced that they will play a special benefit concert in aid of former drummer Clive Burr MS Trust Fund at London's Hammersmith Carling Apollo on Friday, September 2 with special guests PIG IRON and VOODOO SIX.
