Iron Maiden Demand Nomination For Best Live Return Is Withdrawn

Iron Maiden have asked for their nomination in the Best Live Return category at the Vodafone Live Music Awards to be withdrawn.

In a message on their website, the band told people not to cast votes for them because they “are not quite sure where we are returning from”.

“We have asked them to remove us from the nominations and they have done this,” the message adds.

The band were nominated alongside The Verve, Spice Girls and Led Zeppelin for their concert at Twickenham stadium in London.

Last year, the award was given to The Police for their reunion tour, which ends in New York this month.

The Vodafone Live Music awards ceremony will take place at the Brixton Academy in London on September 18th.

Check back with Gigwise later for Vodafone's response to Iron Maiden's request.
