Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson will relaunch his late-night BBC 6 Music Saturday rock show on September 9 with maximum rock on the display and American metal titans Slayer as his first guests.
The network rock show will offer three hours of the best contemporary hard rock, alternative and metal between 9:00 p.m. and midnight every Saturday, produced by the Manchester- and Cambridge-based independent production company Smooth Operations.
Joining Bruce on the second show (September 16) will be Florida ska-punk legends Less Then Jake, fresh from a critically acclaimed new album.
Bruce Dickinson's radio show can be heard live on BBC 6 Music on digital radio and also online at http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music.
guys, dont forget it says "rock show" not "metal show" and for all genres associated with rock taken together, a thrashlegend isnt really much more important then a skalegend
Dunno whether I should stay up all Saturday night or get up early on Sunday for this. Can someone in the UK, PM me with the time they see for me posting this?
edit: So I got up early for once. Kind of a waste since the audio stays linked for a week, ah well. Jolly good show.
