PauloBarnesi Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Who was the best? The weightlifting leotard wearing Freddy or leather man Rob?
maqroll Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Never been a huge fan of either group, but Freddy nicks it for me. Did you also know that these men are/were homosexuals?
PauloBarnesi Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 shame on you Ian; you never heard of Jüdas Prïest?
ianrobo1 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 never been into their music and it is an unfair comparsion surely ? a camp act vs heavy rock ?
rjw63 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Although I like Freddie as a great frontman, I'd rather listen to Halford
PauloBarnesi Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 never been into their music and it is an unfair comparsion surely ? a camp act vs heavy rock ? Did I say anything about music?
ianrobo1 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 no Paul but Freddie Mercury was just camp and I never understood their appeal and frankly shite music so voted for Rob Halford as the local band
Pelle Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 This is strange. According to the posts, the votes should be the opposite or at least Rob should have more votes than he has. Anyway, I'm a pretty big Priest-fan too and in most polls Rob would've got my vote but of course this time. The only thing that Rob has that could edge it for him in this one is that he can sing so f**king high it's almost untrue. But as an entertainer and allround singer Freddie is of course the better and bigger one. Wonder if they ever met in the bed... And Paul, please, it's Freddie, not Freddy. :nod: :wink:
Croatian Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Rob Halford "came out" a couple of years ago. For what it matters......
rjw63 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Rob Halford "came out" a couple of years ago. For what it matters...... It was actually 10 years ago - how time flies............
Designer1 Posted May 21, 2008 VT Supporter Posted May 21, 2008 Theres just something so over-the-top and tongue-in-cheek about Priest and Halford that it makes me warm to them. Saw them live years ago and Halford was a very, very good frontman. So Halford for me.
Ikantcpell Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Never heard of Rob Halford so Freddy Mercury for me
rjw63 Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Never heard of Rob Halford so Freddy Mercury for me WHAT??? And I thought you Scandos were heavy metal mad!
Pelle Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Never heard of Rob Halford so Freddy Mercury for me WHAT??? And I thought you Scandos were heavy metal mad! Have to admit that I were a bit surprised by this too. Oh, those youngsters...
Ikantcpell Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Never heard of Rob Halford so Freddy Mercury for me WHAT??? And I thought you Scandos were heavy metal mad! Ive heard of Judas Priest but i didn't know the names of the guys in the band
thetrees Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 To be fair Rob Halford was so camp he made Freddie look like Warren Beatty. I liked some Priest and pretty much disliked Queen, but Mercury was far and away the better performer.
