What am I Looking Forward To..... Iron Maiden, Bloodstock, OC/DC

Iron Maiden
Notingham Arena, 27th July
They are supported by Airbourne, who put on a helluva show.  I am however a bit gutted that Trivium, who are supporting them on one of their London dates, aren't supporting them in Notts.  Still, this is an evening I am very much looking forward to.

Notley Crue and OCDC
The Running Horse, Nottingham, 30th July     
OCDC are so spot on as an AC/DC tribute band.  Notley Crue should be awesome to photograph. 

Bloodstock Open Air Festival
August 12th to the 14th, Catton Hall, Derbyshire
To be the opening support band on the Ronnie James Dio stage at Bloodstock on Friday 12th August, must be the ultimate support slot for The Defiled.  In the two years I have been following them, they have grown from a support band, to gathering a young following of their own.  Still, it must be the ultimate honour to be playing on the same stage as established heavy metal bands such as Exodus, Wasp and Motörhead. 

The Defiled
There are three stages at Bloodstock, which cater for every taste in Heavy Metal, Black Metal, Death Metal and Power Metal – the emphasis being on METAL.  It’s the one festival where you know Biffy Clyro will NEVER be on stage, let alone a headlining act.

Playing alongside bands from all over the world is Derbyshire’s own one man metal band, Foul Body Autopsy who will be playing on the New Blood stage on the Saturday.
