Iron Maiden to Cover Ex-Singer Paul Di’Anno’s Remaining Surgery Expenses
In the past, former Iron Maiden vocalist Paul Di’Anno has not always been very nice to his ex-bandmates. However, the band have made it clear that there is no true bad blood between the two — by paying for the remainder of the costs of his long-awaited knee surgery.
The news comes from the Facebook page of the Cart & Horses pub in London, where Maiden made their live debut in 1976, and which has been hosting a fundraiser to help Paul pay for his surgery. However, in a recent Facebook post, the bar said the following:
“Announcement on Paul Di’Anno’s fundraising!
“I am very excited to announce that the Iron Maiden team have kindly agreed to cover the remaining cost of Paul Di’Annio’s operation. Not only are Iron Maiden the best band on this planet, they are kind-hearted and supported by an amazing team. As a result of this fantastic news, I will be closing the fundraising on the 21st June 2022.
“I would like to express my huge thanks to everyone that has donated, you all made a difference and made this happen for Paul. There are so many individuals and bands who have worked with me behind the scenes on this tremendous journey. I’m so grateful and thankful to you all, I’d love to name every single one of you but it would be a never-ending list as there are SO many of you, you guys are incredible!”
Damn, good on Maiden for being good dudes about this.
