(siN's metal news) IRON MAIDEN manager Rod Smallwood has left the following message on the band's official website: ....I find it staggering that this ambush would take place in front of any audience, let alone in San Bernardino, the biggest audience of the tour. Didn't that audience merit any consideration? They pay an awful lot to be there in terms of prices for tickets, parking, food, beer etc. Surely if they spend this sort of money they deserve to watch the bands they paid to see be able to put in a full unhindered performance. Free of danger and intimidation. If I had paid I would ask for my money back!

And this audience really were outstanding, giving the band incredible support and many voting with their feet in disgust after the set and the speech, which to many was the final insult.

... We will have no more to say on this matter except that l do think the band deserve an apology from a number of people, and you know who you are. [we only printed a small part here, click the full story link for the full statement] - Click here for the Full Story
