Are you ready to ROCK???!!!

Or do you seek oneness with the universe and enlightenment?

***along with giants such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Slayer***

How does it get bigger? Add Exodus, Testament, Motorhead, Dio, Alice Cooper, and maybe Queensryche.

But sharing the stage with Maiden and Priest... if I could do that, I’d die a very happy man.

>Hard rock and heavy metal have, over the years, been criticised as the work of the devil.

It’s a claim which Brother Cesare, also known as Brother Metal, says is nonsense. <

Obviously. I grew up listening to Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, napalm Death, Cannibal Corpse etc and still attend Sunday mass. And no, I haven’t sacrificed a virgin at the altar after listening to Slayer.

BTW, his videos suck. Judas priest?? How gay can you get?

Have you heard Nostradamus yet?

Dickinson and Halford Maiden era and Priest or post Dickinson and Halford Maiden and Priest?

Would you jam with Ozzy?

Dickinson and Halford-era Maiden and Priest.

As to Ozzy, probably not.

I love Iron Maiden.

I have all their studio albums, Live After Death on 3 formats (CD, DVD, LP), Rock in Rio on CD and DVD, Death on the Road on CD and DVD, their Early Days package, and I have the Sanctuary single, Maiden Japan, Killers, Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind, and Powerslave on vinyl. I also have Eddie’s Archives, as well as about 13 Maiden shirts.

For Priest, I just have Screaming for Vengeance, Painkiller, Priest... Live!, Defenders of the Faith, Angel of Retribution and Live in London on DVD.

I don’t have Nostradamus yet. And I also don’t know how Iron Maiden is going to one-up A Matter of Life and Death. But I’m waiting to find out.

And let me not get into how many Maiden songs I can play on guitar.

I only own a few albums (for money reasons) but I have heard nearly everything from both bands.

What haven’t you heard from either, if you can think of anything?

Only the very early Priest stuff which is hard to find anyway.

They're still recording/touring. I'll be seeing them in OR and WA in 2 weeks.

Is it me or does the article go out of it’s way to not even mantion the name of the band? They mention that festival they played with all of these supergroups and they can’t even mention this bands name? Anyone else find this odd?
