Former Iron Maiden singer Paul Di’Anno will have the remaining costs of his surgeries and treatment funded by his former bandmates. The singer is in Croatia, waiting to have knee-surgery.
The operations director of the Cart & Horses pub in Stratford, London, where Iron Maiden played their first concert in 1976, Kastro Pergjoni recently raised thousands of dollars so Di’Anno can have his surgery. He shared on the Cart & Horses Facebook page:
“I am very excited to announce that the Iron Maiden team have kindly agreed to cover the remaining cost of Paul Di’Anno‘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!”
