Yeah dude. Out of the many British people I've met in my life, I can only say that one or two of them are crazy enough to throw up the horns and sing along "Number of the Beast".

Personally, I disagree. Priest is...meh. I grew up in a house where, when I was a little kid, all my parents listened to were Classic Rock (the Beatles, the Who, Led Zeppelin) and metal (Maiden, Priest, Megadeth, etc). Personally, I like Iron Maiden a lot better than Judas Priest. Call me crazy, but I also like Halford's newer band Two (which only released one album) more than Priest. John (5) Lowery of ex-Marilyn Manson fame played guitar on that record and he's one of my favorite guitarists, so I guess it's just a personal bias

Uh... Not for nothing, but I never hear much about them. Occasionally I'll catch an old vid on VH1 Classic, but other than that they're pretty much phantoms in the metal scene. It was only by mere chance that I saw their latest release from Dance of Death on MTV2. I wouldn't necessarily call them "whores of the US media," especially only if they get more press here than in the UK.

I'm saying the Osbourne family gets more attention in the US. With their TV show and all that merch they sell. I love Maiden and I know their not media whores. They don't pull stupid stunts like that. You mis-understood my comment.

I have two things to say about that. One what does that have to do with anything we are talking about? And two how can you compare a band that was at their peak in the 70's to a band that was at their peak in the 80's?

Maiden makes music about ancient times and base songs on books they read(like Ronnie James Dio who also rules),Judas Priest makes music about rockin' and rollin' ,call me crazy but instead of hearing long epic operatic Maiden songs,i'd rather hear simple metal songs,which Priest is always good for,the best thing about Maiden is Eddie. but before any fights arrise, Maiden is still cool.but I prefer Priest.

Ah I see you like the quicker more up beat songs as opposed to the slow paced long songs Maiden play. That makes perfect sense to me.

Oh, you were talking about the Osbournes. I thought you were referring to Maiden.

Sorry 'bout that.
