Iron Maiden has posted the following update on singer Bruce Dickinson’s health:
“Over the last few days, Bruce has been to see his specialists and following examinations, including visual, we’re delighted to update everyone that the situation remains extremely optimistic for a full recovery. We will still not have final confirmation that the cancer has been completely eradicated until Bruce can have an MRI scan in May, as previously advised in Rod’s recent message to the fans on this site, and the period to full recovery will continue for a few months yet.
Typically Bruce’s immediate reaction to the specialists’ good news was to be as active as feasibly possible, taking in a couple of visits to the Maiden office, one to the Hybrid Air Vehicle hangar to see latest progress, and a brief trip to his local pub, much to the surprise and delight of all his friends there!
We just wanted to share this latest piece of good news with all Maiden’s fans and, as usual, we’ll continue to keep you all updated officially on Bruce’s progress, here on the Iron Maiden website.”
Just before Christmas, during a routine doctor’s check-up, a small cancerous tumor was discovered at back of Dickison’s tongue.

get well bruce,we need you.up the irons
This shows how regular checkups can save lives. It’s good he’s going on with his normal activities. Get well soon Bruce!
Of all the veteran singers out there, this is the one guy that never mails it in and always gives 100%. This guy has many more solid years and I can’t wait to check out one of their shows again. If you look the way that Ozzy and Paul Stanley simply run out the clock and go home, this guy is still tops after all these years. Ditto for David Lee Roth. Live long and prosper you son of a gun….
