This 2011 has been a great summer for Iron Maiden. Following the release of their last compilation album "From Fear To Eternity", the British Heavy Metal heroes embarked for another big summer tour which saw them protagonists in the main European festivals and stages. Useless to say, it has been a great success! But news from Maiden's side always keep coming; a new book on Iron Maiden history is coming out soon, it's a photo documentary by their official photographer entitled 'On Board Flight 666', with a forward by frontman Bruce Dickinson. And for Bruce Dickinson himself this summer was very pleasant: we all know Dickinson is a multi-talented person, not only a great singer-songwriter but also a great airline pilot and entrepreneur (he actually often drives the whole band and staff with his airplane from venue to venue), a champion fencer, author, film script writer and radio/TV broadcaster. This summer 2011 he also received a honorary Doctorate in music from Queen Mary University in London, a leading research-focused institution which Dickinson attended in the 70s, achieving a degree in history in 1979. He was presented by Professor David Baker of the Centre For Neuroscience And Trauma, "in honor of Dr. Dickinson's contribution to the music industry". Well deserved indeed Mr. Dickinson and congratulations from MusicAdvisor!!!
