Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden and Skunkworks performing in Sarajevo in 1994

My recent conversation with Jed Parle who was the soundman for Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) and his solo band Skunkworks, when they played a concert in war-torn Sarajevo in 1994 during the Bosnian war.

We talk about all the craziness that went into pulling this off, how you mix a show knowing the venue could be bombed at any time, and more.

  

Be sure to check out my previous Blog where I talk to Chris Dale, who was Bruce's bass player at the time, about the film 'Scream for me Sarajevo' which recounts the events leading up to and following this very unlikely and incredible concert.
