Speaking of Iron Maiden, original Maiden vocalist Paul Di'Anno made a rare appearance in Chicago a few weeks ago. Paul checked in with me on my show to say hello and give the lowdown on his scarcity on this side of the pond. "I've been a very baaaaad boy, and had some work permit problems!" he said with a laugh. Welcome back Paul, you've been missed.
