This is terrible news for the many millions of Maiden fans all over the world. They've been my favorite band for over 20 years and will be until the day I die.

Rest in peace Paul, you'll be sorely missed.

Not every rocker has the constitution of Keith Richards.

“Killers” hooked me in when I was 15 in 1980 and they’ve been a mainstay ever since then.

I don’t know what his ailments were, but there is a very unsettling photo of his lower extremities at the link.....not good at all.

RIP

It is a shame, fan of Iron Maiden here too.

First big concert I went to as a teenager was Judas Priest with Iron Maiden opening for them. I think Iron Maiden was touring on the release of ‘The Number of The Beast’ and Judas Priest was touring on (I think) ‘Screaming For Vengeance’. Both were amazing, remain a fan today. I’d have to check my ticket stubs on when it was but also saw Iron Maiden later headline with a massive stage show.

One of the things I remember at that first JP/IM concert was people outside the venue handing out copies of the New Testament and imploring on megaphones NOT to go in there. Still a Christian to this day, in spite of a giant inflatable Eddie glaring at me.

🥲 'Least he kept at it.
I've been a fan of the Irons from the beginning thru Somewhere in Time. Kinda fell off after that.
Hardly listen to music much anymore but that reminds me I may be 'bout due another dose.

RIP, mate.. d:^)

The release of the Covid ‘vaccine’ in 2021 would not have improved his health problems.

I was a bigger fan of the music made with Bruce, but there is no denying that Paul made some good music with Iron Maiden.

I know that Bruce Dickenson has pi$$ed all over the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, but the band with both Dianno and Dickinson should definitely be in there.

One thing about the Daily Mail. It makes me glad I’m not a Celeb-U-Tard. I’m referring to the side gossip bar.

What a bunch of sad, pathetic, gross lives these people have.

My wife and kid love me, we get three squares a day. Seems a lot better than what I see here.
