Iron Maiden’s vocalist Bruce Dickinson will be joining Tim Burgess for the 666th episode of ‘Tim’s Twitter Listening Party’ set to take place this Friday.
The listening party will see Dickinson tweeting commentary and revealing a “few interesting secrets” around the 1984 classic album ‘Powerslave’.
“We started these listening parties at the beginning of the first lockdown and thought we’d do a couple of weeks of them until everything got back to normal.” Burgess told NME. “Nick Mason hosted our Saucerful of Secrets listening party to celebrate our 500th and someone tweeted that we should mark the 666th as a special occasion. Naturally, we tweeted Iron Maiden and they said they’d love to join us.”
Bruce Dickinson took to the band’s social media to announce the listening party, saying “Right, where are you going to be at 9 pm on Friday, the 12th of February? Yes, Friday the 12th of February, at 9 pm, it is Tim’s Twitter Listening Party… number six hundred and sixty-six.” Pointing to a copy of Powerslave, “This album [1984 – Powerslave]. This person. That time. Be there…and I will let you in on a few interesting secrets. And it’s gonna be fun. And what a great album.”
