Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden and Dee Snider of Twisted Sister, Halifax 1984 World Slavery Tour
Lead singer Bruce Dickinson talks to the CBC as the British heavy metal band is supported by Twisted Sister on its 1984 World Slavery tour.
When Iron Maiden came to the Halifax Metro Centre on the World Slavery tour in support of their album Powerslave in 1984, some Haligonians were nervous.
The British heavy metal band was touring with Twisted Sister, then riding high on the strength of their single We're Not Gonna Take It.
What do today's young people really want? asked earnest CBC reporter Melvin McLeod, introducing his piece on the concert.
You wanna rock. You wanna rock, growled a young bearded man ahead of the show. Fans at the arena also waved a homemade Iron Maiden banner.
Contrary to popular opinion, 10,000 kids aren't going to ruin Halifax tonight, said Twisted Sister lead singer Dee Snider backstage before the show. They're going to go home and have a good night's sleep ... because they really enjoyed themselves.

Bruce Hyer: Get Canada Back on Track
Bruce Hyer, Member of Parliament for Thunder Bay--Superior North and Deputy Leader of the Green Party of Canada will be embarking on a rail trip from Halifax to Montreal this Sunday, in order to push for a national transportation strategy and to raise awareness of funding cuts which could mean the end of passenger rail in the Maritimes as early as this summer.
Hyer will begin his Save Maritime Rail tour with a rally at the Halifax Train Station at 10:00 AM on Sunday morning. The tour will include stops in Truro and Amherst, Nova Scotia, as well as Sackville, Moncton, Miramichi, Bathurst, and Campbellton, New Brunswick.
With CN Rail abandoning a 71-km stretch of track between Bathurst and Miramichi, New Brunswick that is shared jointly with VIA Rail, passenger rail service in the Maritimes will likely come to an end this July.
Since Confederation, our coast-to-coast rail network has served to unite our country and streamline our economy, said Hyer. But today, we're facing the cancellation of passenger rail service in places like the Maritimes, we have too many tragic accidents and freight derailments, especially with dangerous DOT-111 rail cars shipping bitumen, and we have a government that puts oil company profits above the public interest.
A long-time rail transportation advocate, Hyer has also worked extensively to restore passenger rail service along Lake Superior's north shore, in his home riding of Thunder Bay--Superior North.
Right now, we are the only OECD country without a national transportation strategy, said Elizabeth May, Member of Parliament for Saanich--Gulf Islands and Leader of the Green Party of Canada.It's time for this government to show some leadership and work to improve rail infrastructure and safety standards.
Halifax (Part 1) - Mount Olivet Cemetery
Halifax is known as the City of the Dead and for good reason. We'll be taking you on a tour of the various Titanic sites in and around the city from cemeteries to memorials and specific locations. This footage was compiled while Matt and Tom were in Halifax in June, and when Tom visited a second time in September, 2017.
In this episode, you'll learn about the 19 graves at Mount Olivet Cemetery, as well as hear the stories of the Halifax Explosion of 1917. You'll also get to see a replica hearse, similar to the ones that carried the Titanic victims to their rest.
In the next Episode, we'll visit Fairview Cemetery, where over 129 victims lay.
Special thanks to the Titanic Society of Atlantic Canada

Dream Of Home, Alan Doyle, Bruce Guthro's Songwriters Circle (Tuesday), Halifax
Alan begins the Tuesday Songwriters'' Circle in Casino Nova Scotia's Schooner Room with the first of his five songs of the evening, this a song he wrote for the 2010 Ridley Scott film Robin Hood in which Alan also acted, alongside such luminaries as Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett, Oscar Isaac and William Hurt (When you've been in as many movie as I have...) Sharing this Circle with host and longtime friend Bruce Guthro, another longtime friend and songwriting collaborator Gordie Sampson (all but invisible to me due to the vagaries of the Circle seating setup) and Canadian Country Hall Of Famer Michelle Wright, Alan was, as he always is, delightfully charming...and a prodigiously accomplished Songsmith. As he always is. Halifax, Nova Scotia. December 11, 2018
Nova Scotia Road Trip, from Ontario to Nova Scotia
I've got this new camper...
After my hikes in Scotland and Wales, I returned to Ontario, Canada to visit my mother, and from there I set out on a road trip to Nova Scotia. I'd bought a camper at the beginning of the summer and this was my time to travel with it. It took 2 days to get to Nova Scotia. Initially, I stayed in the New Glasgow area and took day trips exploring the area, then I headed to Cape Breton Island.
