According to Newsweek, Lithuanian authorities have banned poster advertisements for Iron Maiden’s world tour because the band’s trademark Eddie the Head skeleton mascot may frighten children, local news site Delfi reported.
The Book of Souls world tour is due to arrive in the Baltic country for a concert in Kaunas’s 18,000-capacity Žalgiris Arena later this month.
According to a Lithuanian spokesman for Live Nation, the promotion company behind the tour, local authorities had expressed concern at the effect this might have on children and ordered all posters be taken down immediately.
