This poll is very one-sided therefore it is useless :P

Didnt vote, as never seen them. (Though a bit of a pet hate of mine, as a young lady I was crazy about was a big fan. Come to think of it, it was this time last year..............)

Anyways, you cannot beat Iron Maiden. The way Bruce Dickinson works the crowd, 'Scream for me *insert location here*', Eddie putting in an appearance, the sheer energy of the band and above all the MUSIC. The icing on the cake is if it takes part at the Hammersmith Odeon, the UK's home of rock & metal (now the Glasgow Apollo is no longer with us).

That's it conclusive, by an overwhelming majority- yes they are.

Dickinson's a great frontman, when you leave aside the cliches and the pantomime. But when you do that, you're looking at an empty stage Still a great live show, mind.

I haven't seen the lips live. I'd love to tho. I reckon they'd be very entertaining and that's the point of seeing any band live and in the flesh.
