Spain's Monsters Of Rock Festival - IRON MAIDEN's Headline Show Tonight Cancelled
July 12, 2008, 16 years ago
As previously reported, the Monsters Of Rock Festival in Feria de Muestras, Zaragoza, Spain this weekend (July 11th and 12th) has suffered major damage from a violent fifteen-minute wind and hail storm that also disrupted the 2008 international exhibition cultural programme.
IRON MAIDEN - tonight's headliners - have issued the following update: "Due to massive storm damage to the staging and PA and lights in the the last 24 hours or so, today's (Saturday) Zaragoza cannot take place. At this stage it looks unlikely, due to the extent of the damage, that the Metalway Festival can be rescheduled. Maiden are sorry that it seems unlikely that they can appear for their fans in Zaragoza. Maiden's equipment had not arrived on-site when the storm occurred so this has no effect on continuing Maiden's shows in Scandinavia and elsewhere."
