Anyone familiar with this project? Joker, I'm looking in your direction.
I just read about it on Blabbermouth. Damien Wilson, the lead singer of Threshold and some other guys are putting out their 2nd album of acoustic takes on classic Maiden songs. Listening to some now on their website...launch the media player to hear some

Sounds pretty cool. They've taken some liberties with the songs, adding piano, female vocals and stuff. Very mellow, but sounds pretty enjoyable for a different take on some classics.
Here's the info on the new album due in September...
