TOPIC: Rob Halford or Tim Owens

While I appreciate the "Mr." moniker / address of respect, nope. You are not going to convince me with that video. Watched it all the way through which reminded me that I have the whole concert bootleg! Watched it ONCE. The odd thing that even reminded me that I had it is that he laughingly has "Ripper" written on the back of his shirt! LOL!

Don't get me wrong. I like Owens as a singer just not as the lead of Judas Priest (OR Iced Earth, for that matter). The fact that he is younger and can sing falsetto does NOT put him in the same league as the Metal God himself. Even in the lower registers he uses today, Halford can convey more pure emotion in both voice and stage presence today than screechy / hoppy Owens could ever hope in his days with Priest. Compare Fight and, my personal fav, Halford band.
