And this was the gayest Rob Halford clip I could find. It's 1978 but I loved this era of Priest. Right before the leather and spikes.

I was in Columbus, OH in 04 and was going to see Damageplan at the Alrosa Villa but something came up and I couldn't go. I was pissed.

That was the night Dimebag Darrell was shot. Crazy Shit.
 
Blackie Lawless - the perfect metal voice

A lot of goodies posted already, but let's not forget W.A.S.P.
The raw and evil-sounding voice of Blacke Lawless is arguably the best in all of 80's metal:

Crank up your volume to 11 with these...

Also, Bruce Dickinson (the lead singer) is a certified bad ass:

"Paul Bruce Dickinson (born 7 August 1958) is an English singer, airline pilot, radio show host, fencer, author, swordsman, and songwriter best known as the vocalist of the metal band Iron Maiden."

I'm gonna be seeing a bunch of the bands on this page on one bill in Germany in August later this year.

If you're into metal to HAVE TO make it to Wacken at least once in your life... it's like Muslims having to go to Mecca.

The lineup isn't finalised yet but confirmed so far ar Iron Maiden (headliners), WASP, Motley Crue, Alice Cooper, Raven, Slayer,VoiVod, Overkill and about 70 others so far (Check out the full line up so far)

There are 4 stages and the festival is 3 days long. There is always at least one top band playing on one of the stages at any given time and sometimes 2 or 3 at the same time so you have to make some heartbreaking descissions about who ya gonna watch. Yes - there are a few "un head ofs", but most of the bands have some sort on international following so there's no real shite.

Tickets are only 120 Euros (when the full lineup is finalised that works out to about 1 or 2 Euros per band!) fully inclusive of entrance, camp site etc... it's practically free so you will be able to afford a LOT of beer... and German beer is goooood!

I was over there in 2002 and I'm super hyped to go again - it's the biggest metal party in the world!! \m/
 
Would love to do Wacken sometime, although I'm doing Donnington for the third time this year.

ACDC, Aerosmith, Rage, Megadeth, Motorhead and plenty more to come.

Can't fucking wait!
