Today is June 5, or 6/5 -- just one number off from 6/6. That is the day on which most metalheads would like to have been born because of its nearness to the number of the beast. But today is the birthday of Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain, which earns more metal points for all who share it. Though McBrain joined Maiden a year after it released The Number of the Beast, he remained with the band through its glory years. So tonight McBrain is honored at Maiden Madness, and he does a little honoring himself. After opening sets by Ornjav, Failsafe, Threeface, and Deepset, McBrain gets behind the kit with Black Sabbath's Dave Spitz on bass and Deepset members to form Wrath Child, an Iron Maiden tribute band. The party starts at 7 p.m. at the Kelsey Club (700 Park Ave., Lake Park). Tickets cost $10. Call 561-296-1407.
