Iron Maiden want boss Slaven Bilic …and no it’s not a joke!
The band are have a gig in Split for a gig on 27 July and want Slav the Man on stage with them – he is after all one of the City’s famous sons and a keen metal fan.
Slav has been a member of bands and is a great guitarist so there’s a chance it may happen.
West Ham supporting founder member Steve Harris is a friend of the boss and trying to make it happen.
He told the newspaper Slobodna Dalmacija:”I have known Bilic for a number of years now – the first time I met him was when he played for West Ham – my son, George, was the mascot when we met at the game and we have stayed in contact.
“We saw each other over Christmas and chatted – I know he is one of our big fans.”
Harris was then asked if they’d thought about inviting Bilic up on stage to perform a song with them…
“Bilic is really a great guy and is doing a fantastic job at West Ham. With regards to being a guest at the concert, I’m not sure if he will be in Split – but if he can make it, we will see… he is a sought-after man and he has to do his job first.”
if it were to happen in London, i’d really like to see that.
The day before our first game of the season?? I don’t think so…
