Eddie Lands In Newport Saturday Night

Iron Maiden (or a reasonably close facsimile) is about to hit Rhode Island.

We have to admit, it’s highly unlikely that Bruce Dickinson is going to touch Ed Force One down at Newport State Airport and Iron Maiden is going to play an impromptu show in Queen Anne Square. We’re also kind of guessing that an invitation from the Newport Folk Festival isn’t in the cards.

Fortunately, The Cafe at Parlor is getting us the next best thing:

Maiden New England

Created from the stolen parts of a bunch of other Iron Maiden tribute bands, Maiden New England (a play on the Maiden England tour movie released by the actual band back in 1989). The band has been touring since 2013. RSVP here.

Robot Clean

Joining Maiden New England is Misfits tribute Robot Clean!

The Televisionaries

The clear winner of “Which of these bands isn’t like the others?”, The Televisionaries are a surf rock band out of Rochester, NY.
