Metal May Be Limited
British Broadcasting Company had decided to close it’s famous music program “Friday Night Rock Show”, which was hosted by the Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson. As The Guardian says, this show should be knocked out from existence by the end of April this year. “Friday Night Rock Show” was aired on every Friday from BBC 6 Music digital station since 2002, but now it’s organizers have other plans. While hosting the show Dickinson is talking with his colleagues from the music world, tells listeners about studio work and after all puts on his favorite music. Practically, the newspaper notes that Dickinson’s show is going down due to some steady close up of the BBC 6 Music, so it will get totally closed by the end of 2011. In other words it’s not just Dickinson’s program which is being pressured, but the whole radio station. At the same time, company’s representatives have underlined that heads of the BBC 6 Music are planning to change the music and general song list from heavy metal that was the only dominant style during “Friday Night Rock Show”. However, BBC is not going to get away from heavy metal and hard rock, this music will stay in, but with some limitation. So far there was no reaction on the side of Bruce Dickinson to BBC’s plans on closing of his program. The next airing will take place today with new guests from legendary Nazareth. Surely, Dickinson will not really like the idea of limiting his favorite music, there is absolutely no question about it.
