They changed the original name of the tour from "Metal Masters" to "Metal Masters - Invincible Shield Tour" some time after announcing the album, so I wouldn't pay too much attention to the name itself.

Reckless is an interesting case. They rehearsed it a few years ago during the preparations for the anniversary tour, but it didn't work. I know that Richie is really interested in playing it live. Before the beginning of the current tour, Scott said that they're not gonna perform it "yet" -...

No idea. It was shorter in Leeds too. The show in Switzerland started pretty early for their standards (21:00, they usually get on stage at 21:20 or even later), so perhaps some logistic issues were the reason for shortening the setlist. I guess we'll see in a few hours, they're playing in...

Dublin :) A very nice one too. I never thought I would hear Sword of Damocles live.

The gig was very good. I've never heard a better performance of Saints in Hell than the one they delivered on Saturday. I was lucky to witness one of the first shows on the tour too, so I could notice improvements they've made in the meantime. At this point, Painkiller is boring to me, but this...

I don't see why they shouldn't. This is how we count millennia. Just like the 21st century started in 2001, the third millennium started in 2001. At least that's what I was taught in school... A lot of nice LPs! To me, The Rise of Chaos is the weakest output by the Tornillo era Accept, but it's...

The best metal album of the millennium? Nah. The best heavy metal album of the millennium? Most likely. Blood of the Nations is peak Accept to me. Few heavy metal records released in the 21st century are as good as BotN, the band achieved an amazing thing with this one. Also, if we're talking...

Glenn is the reason why they became a heavy metal band. Most of the revolutionary songs from their first albums are Tipton/Halford. Hell Bent for Leather, Exciter, Sinner... And some are Glenn's only - Running Wild, The Ripper, Heroes End. Both guitarists were important, but Tipton was always...

Phil is still in the band. He just wasn't present for the photoshoot. The same thing happened with some other musician (Motnik?) when they were shooting one of the videos for Too Mean to Die.

I'm not sure if Ghost is still interested in being anyone's support. They're most likely the biggest "young" band around, they sell out arenas in Europe and in the US. Playing as a supporting act means stage set limitations, which is extremely important in their case. I did see Ghost supporting...

Exactly. I'd even say that Deep Purple (and to some extent Uriah Heep) are more important for heavy metal than Sabbath (which I love the most of the three bands). While Sabbath's music was absolutely heavy and groundbreaking, Purple were heavy AND fast. Sure, maybe not as heavy as Black...

Right, I mixed up the actual location of the gig with the one I'm going to see in a few days. However, I've never stated that Ireland is a part of the UK (I even wrote 'their Irish AND British fans').

I guess that Glenn and Jayne wouldn't have been a problem if Ian hadn't taken KK's actions so personally. At the moment it looks like he considers Ken to be some sort of traitor. As a founding member, his opinion would be crucial on the issue of Ken's possible re-joining the band. Sure, Glenn...
