... I'm all out of ideas for a clever birthday thread title. Happy Birthday @Brigantium :cheers::hbd:

For on this day, while Iron Maiden were still up and coming and Jphann Cruijff was ruling the football pitches of Europe ... something great happened in the country of tulips and speed skaters. @Forostar was born! Happy Birthday :cheers:

It is time to speculate. And feel free to request more options!

While we wait for new music, how about this: Over the years, various artists have covered Iron Maiden. Other heavy metal bands, but also bands and artists from other genres. We have Thomas Zwijsen's acoustic covers, Scott Lavender's piano covers and many more. Some songs translate well into...

... or @Brigantium wants nothing of this birthday nonsense and has used her moderator powers to delete the birthday threads. Happy Birthday! :cheers:

He's a @national acrobat and he's one older today. Heavy Birthday!:cheers:

... Happy Birthday @Ariana! Have a good one and may H bless you! :cheers:

When you use the @username n/a function, a space is automatically added. If you use backspace to remove this space, the @ doesn't work. A bit annoying if you want to use the name right before a comma or a period. After all, we all want proper punctuation, don't we? (If my idea that removing...

Paul had some. Bruce had a lot. Blaze wisely didn't try to replicate them very often. Those vocal parts that transfer the horror of Killers, the despair of The Number of the Beast or the relief when that poor mariner finally feels the rain coming down. Which one is your favourite? Since I'm...

In my job I sometimes have to make documentation like user manuals. The review of one such manual contains a comment which might or might not be correct. The issue is that of listing several words. One place in the text, I write "Critical temperature and pressure", meaning "Critical temperature...

If the fact that Priest are going on a farewell tour this year wasn't jaw-dropping enough: KK Downing has decided that he will retire from the band already before the tour. Official statement from the Judas Priest homepage...

Once upon the time, there was a thread where we combined words from song names just for fun. So, run to the village and post yours!

The upcoming world tour will be Priest's last ... http://judaspriest.com/news/fullstory.asp?id=05E3D999-903B-49F0-A8D2-C4A2431C9B2D Too bad the Nordic dates are all in June ... I won't have time to go  :(

http://edition.cnn.com/2010/LIVING/10/08/nobel.peace.prize.win/ This year's Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to a man currently serving an 11 year prison sentence for his opposition against the regime in Beijing. Will this in any way influence on the way this regime oppresses any political...

We all have some cover songs we hate, don't we? Here is a list of 10 abominations. Any physical medium containing any of those should be shredded to pieces and sunk in the ocean. http://www.thevine.com.au/music/news/top-10-_-worst-cover-songs.aspx The obvious follow-up question is: What cover...

I'd rather have a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy. What about you guys?

http://www.ironmaiden.com/index.php?categoryid=8&p2_articleid=1258 Gothenburg, Oslo, Helsinki and Roskilde in the beginning of July 2011. That is great news. :yey:

As we all know, Fear of the Dark has been nearly ever-present since it first was played. Some other songs are also played on nearly every tour. But what do people think, will any 2000s songs join FOTD, Hallowed, and the other ever-presents in future setlists? And if so, which ones? People...

I'm not a fan of the band, but I thought I'd share the news anyway. http://www.desmoinesregister.com/article/20100524/NEWS/100524023/Police-Slipknot-bassist-found-dead-at-Urbandale-hotel

You are gonna die, no doubt about that, but who would you rather have doing it? Inspired by this SMX poll. The Ripper: Well, if you are walking a dark London street he might surprise ya. Never turn your back on The Ripper! Tyrant: Tyrants have a tendency to kill people, don't they? Especially...
