Poll Of The Week....Maiden or Priest

Welcome to the Poll Of the Week kids. You know what to do.

'Scope

Upscope's a Judas Priest kinda guy.....Always has, always will. However, IM puts on one of the better live sets you will ever see. Upscope's vote still is w/ Priest though.

'Scope

I agree...Judas Priest is my favorite......

Maidens got Eddie!

I like both pretty much equally so I'd have to flip a coin or somethin.

The Poll Of The Week is results oriented Rev. What did the coin say??

Tough call, but good question Scopey..

Both bands are priceless when you think what they've done for Heavy Metal, just listen to Maidens "Number of the beast" & Priest's "British Steel" albums, & you get the picture!

Priest gets my vote, but only just! - What swung it for me is Rob Halford, possibly the best "Metal" voice in the business!

I never guessed all those years ago when Rob was wearing all that leather & studs he was gay!..It makes no difference to me his sexual orientation, but when i look back on those old vid's & watch Halford strutting his stuff, it still makes me smile that i didn't see the obvious..

Smart coin.....

'Scope

Maiden, but purely for the CD's up to Fear of the Dark...lost interest after that...

I was raised on Priest. I often forget they are one of my favorites until I'm listening to them..Rob Halford hits them high notes.....and had quite an innovative style. Saw them twice and loved it. I like how Halford rides his Bike up on stage!!!

Later in life I've been listening more to Maiden. I like the second singer in Iron maiden.

I voted for Priest because they have more tunes I am familiar with!!! I totally wore out my Unleashed in the East 8-track in High school!!!!!

I voted for Maiden, and this was a tough one. I'm not huge on either band, but they're both legends, and have MANY classics.

Priest

"You've Got Another Thing Coming" gets cranked to 11 every time I hear it! Rob's got the pipes, although I have to give props to Maiden as well.

I grew up on Priest. First saw them in '78 and was blown away. Any band that can write an album as good as 'Sin After Sin' is OK with me! Some of the best gigs I've ever seen. Unfortunately they've turned into a rock parody...the Download gig last year I was actually embarressed watching them.

Still...they'll never be as awful as Maiden.

Like them both, but when it comes down to it I pick Priest!
