Ronnie James Dio.
I know he's cheesy, but he's awesome.

He won't retire, according to wiki anyway:
In July 2007, Kanye West changed the release date of Graduation, his third studio album, from September 18, 2007, to the same release date as Curtis, September 11, 2007.[11] This forced the albums to go head-to-head and compete for higher sales against each other. 50 Cent claimed that if Graduation sold more records than Curtis, he would stop releasing solo albums.[12] However, he later dispelled his comments.[13] When asked again about his threat to retire, 50 Cent stated that, if he were to lose, he will release an album every time a major Def Jam Recordings artist releases an album.[14]
Although Graduation topped the Canadian, UK, United World Chart, and US album charts, Curtis debuted at number one on the Irish and Swiss album charts, claiming the top spot on the Billboard European Top 100 Albums chart. Curtis also topped the Australian and New Zealand album charts (however, Graduation was not released in time to compete on the Australian chart).
Graduation's first week sales of 957,000 and Curtis' first week sales of 691,000 meant that the competition resulted in only the second time ever (since Nielsen SoundScan began collecting data in 1991) that two albums sold more than 600,000 in a week in the United States. The first occurrence of such an event was when Guns N' Roses released Use Your Illusion II, which sold 770,000 copies, and Use Your Illusion I, which sold 685,000 copies. The first week sales totals of Graduation and Curtis have outsold the first week sales totals of Guns N' Roses' two albums.[15]
I'm ashamed of my country.

Both of them should retire.
Agreed
Indeed, that is a true word.
-
Megadeth is awesome.
And Dave Mustaine has wicked hair. I'm letting my hair grow until my hair looks like his.
And I love their new album.

thought I need to make another one of my series: originals against the covers.
This time it's Iron Maiden against Baz.
In my opinion both are awesome. I can't really say whom I prefer. Baz' voice is so incredibly powerfull. So I'll go again with a tie.
I used the option mulitple choice, that's why I voted for both.
Iron Maiden

Who cares if he's any good. With that name he's cool anyway.

Les Paul.
I have never played a Strat, but the Les Paul looks cooler.
But Ibanez owns both of them.

leave the beatles alone or i'll kill you, plain enough?
(the beatles is where reason breaks down for me)
Seems like you're Beatles' Chris Axl.

Greenday. But RHCP is way overrated, too. Everyone of their songs sounds exactly the same.

anyone that said michael jackson, jump off a fucking cliff, right now!! :xmasssanta: is this even a for real question? im hanging on for the punchline...
I know you love the beatles a lot (saw that with the Paul Gilbert version of While my gutiar gently weeps.
), but man, MJ nails that song.
that song is SOOO fucking Lennon, if you read his writing, his sort of nonsense prose you can see what the songs constructed of, its so very Lennon that it just sounds...silly coming from other people. it just sounds odd...and not in a good way either. he just jacksonises it. its so very specific to Lennon and his sound that to me it dont work well any other way. its like the sex pistols, inimitable, its a very specific very british very working class very accented form of music and it fits them and not others, its like asking someone to cover Ian Dury.
Yes, but you yourself say he jacksonises (what an awesome word
) the song. Therefore he makes it his own. I mean, it really sounds like an MJ song rather than him covering someone elses song.

So, which is the best? I know there's a shitload of versions, but I picked the "good" bands.
I think Michael Jackson owns that song. Haven't found a complete video of the version he put on HIStory on youtube but I used the version from the Moonwalker movie, which is awesome, too. I think The Beatles come in second and then Aerosmith. Not a big fan of their version.

Not a huge fan of both of them, but the Stones are better.

fav album: Tales From The Strip
bought that album, and I don't think I ever listened to that again in the whole enteryity after the first few times.
I was thinking about going to see LA. guns, but then Paul Gilbert came to Switzerland and I went to see hiAwesomece concert. Awesome concert.

Saw them in June. First row on Lemmy's side.
the crowd went fuckin' mental. I've never seen so many people been picked out by security. I thought it rocked, though it was like they had played one song throught the whole concert.. The Whorehouse blues was awesome.

if chinese democracy comes out february 11/12 I will eat a glove!
You know what, I'll support you. If CD gets released by then I will eat a poppy seed pretzel and post a video as a prove of me doing that.

That whole registering for the opportunity to
buy tickets sounds ridiculous to me. I like the old fashioned first come, first served routine.
General public never stood a chance. Since its a charity event big buisnesses will have donated literally thousands to buy up tickets. Its a once in a lifetime opportunity for them to please their clients!
Shame but thats how things work in the world today
Jonx
not entirely the case apparantly..
I think that's what he meant. It would have been like this if the tickets would have been sold normal.
