IRON MAIDEN's VODAFONE Nomination For 'Best Live Return' Is Withdrawn

August 7, 2008

Jason Gregory of Gigwise.com reports that British heavy metal legends IRON MAIDEN have asked for their nomination in the "Best Live Return" category at the Vodafone Live Music Awards to be withdrawn.

In a message on their web site, the band told people not to cast votes for them because they "are not quite sure where we are returning from.

"We have asked them to remove us from the nominations and they have done this," the message adds.

The band was nominated alongside THE VERVE, SPICE GIRLS and LED ZEPPELIN for its concert at Twickenham stadium in London.

The Vodafone Live Music Awards ceremony will take place at the Brixton Academy in London on September 18.
