Xerox Kills Iron Maiden Show

Iron Maiden fans that were hoping to catch
their heroes perform tonight (Jan 27th) during their forth scheduled concert
at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City, are out of luck. Turns out
the hall was double-booked and will be filled tonight not by metal heads
but by Xerox heads.
Promoter Clear Channel Entertainment booked
Iron Maiden into the venue but the venue had a conference for Xerox Corporation
already booked.
The group posted the following announcement
on their official website:
The IRON MAIDEN show on Tuesday, January
27th at the Hammerstein Ballroom has been cancelled due to an error in
the confirmation of the venue between promoter Clear Channel Entertainment
and the venue. The band made every conceivable effort to reverse the scheduling
error which would have allowed the fourth sold-out show of their four night
run to go ahead.
IRON MAIDEN is clearly extremely disappointed
with this situation and greatly regret not being able to perform on Tuesday,
especially as the first three nights have been such great shows to such
terrific audiences.
Clear Channel Entertainment very much regret
the obvious inconvenience this cancellation has caused to IRON MAIDEN and
their fans.
Refunds will be available at point of purchase.
