I know it's been some time but I have to say it since it was intented for the fans...
In November 2005 the Greek fan clubs of GN'R and Iron Maiden did a big party together.
I contacted Merck to let him know (since he is managing both Maiden and Guns) and he gave a message for the fans:
2006 will be an exciting year for both bands.[/i]
That was in November, which I guess is way more valid than the 2005 statement which was back in June? (which probably changed cause of various reasons).

but since axl's throwing a temper tantrum, take this with a grain of salt, or whatever the saying is.
at least we'll have a new MAIDEN album at the end of the year, cause BRUCE can put an album out at a reasonable time unlike some assholes we know
