Iron Maiden legend Paul Mario Day dies aged 69
The original Iron Maiden frontman Paul Mario Day has passed away at the age of 69 and tributes are pouring in. A statement confirming the sad news was shared by the band More, the group Paul was with after his time with Iron Maiden. The heavy metal icon played a key role for the genre in the 1970s, being with Iron Maiden for their launch and the beginning of the movement dubbed the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM). Paul Mario Day and bass guitarist Brian Day (left) of heavy metal group More in1981. Pic:More stated: 'We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the great MORE vocalist Paul Mario Day. 'Paul was a huge part of the NWOBHM from his time in an early version of Iron Maiden and of course his fantastic performance on the Warhead album. He was a well loved figure in British rock music and played many memorable shows not least the legendary 1981 Monsters of Rock show at Castle Donninton with AC/DC Whitesnake/David Coverdale as well as tours with Iron Maiden Def Leppard and many other legendary artists. 'Mike Freeland remembers him fondly as a 'bloody great vocalist!' 'It's an honour for us to continue to play his music and we will always think of him every time we hit the opening notes to 'Warhead'. 'We send our deepest condolences to Paul's family and friends and also the many fans around the world who love his music. 'Play his music loud and sing along! 'Thank you. Rock in peace Paul.' Paul was born in London in 1956 and became the first singer for Iron Maiden at the age of 19 in December 1975. He was with the group for 10 months before they replaced him with Dennis Wilcock, who also had a short-lived stint. Paul formed More in 1980, and the band released its debut album, 'Warhead', the following year. Paul (centre) with his fellow More band members. Pic:The iconic frontman also went on to lead the band Wildfire from 1983 to 1984 and in 1985 he joined a reformed version of the band Sweet alongside guitarist Andy Scott and drummer Mick Tucker. Andy also paid tribute to Paul on Sweet's social media accounts. He shared: 'In 1985 Mick Tucker and myself put together the first new line-up of Sweet after the hiatus of the original band. 'We needed a singer and when Paul arrived for the audition we looked no further. Our first dates were in Australia, total sell-outs which boded well for the future. 'Europe followed suit and 3 sold out nights at the Marquee in London produced a live album, video and DVD. ''Live at the Marquee' did well in various charts around the world and Paul's vocal performance has stood the test of time.' Heavy metal fans have flooded social media with tributes to one of the main faces of NWOBHM. One fan wrote: 'I saw Paul with More at Ayr Pavillion in April 1981 then a Donington a few months later. I also saw him with Sweet in Nov 1985. Great vocalist. Sadly missed.' Another commented: 'Just finished a play along session with the first album to honor Andy, Kenny and Paul. R.I.P. all of them. Some classic tunes these guys made. Now to bed trying to forget.' A third added: 'RIP Paul. I love the two Wildfire albums too, it was Paul's band.'

Barack Obama's Freedom of Dublin City would bestow him with ancient privileges
The former US President and his wife, Michelle, were awarded the Freedom of Dublin City in February 2017, soon after he left office, and have now been formally invited to accept the honor, which would bestow upon them a number of ancient privileges Former President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle are set to visit the capital in September, where they've been invited to formally accept their Freedom of Dublin City honor. The prestigious title was bestowed upon the couple by Dublin City Council back in February 2017, following Obama's eight-year tenure as US President. However, due to time constraints, they were unable to officially accept it at the time. Now, Lord Mayor Ray McAdam is extending an invitation for them to receive the official grant and sign the honor roll. While the Freedom of Dublin City is largely ceremonial in contemporary Ireland, historically, it came with specific privileges and responsibilities.

Other notable figures who have received this honor include all four members of U2, Nelson Mandela, Jim Gavin, and John F Kennedy. More recent recipients include Kellie Harrington, Greta Thunberg, and Dr Tony Holohan, reports Dublin Live. In a letter to the Obamas, Lord Mayor Ray McAdam expressed his willingness to host a full meeting of Dublin City Council to formally present the honor.

In May 2011, President Obama visited Moneygall, where he received a warm welcome and even poured a pint of Guinness at the local pub.
