I agree,Bruce is a very excellent vocalist but he is just not in Rob's league in my opinion,but its just an opinion so it doesn't make it right or wrong.I suppose if we were at the Iron Maiden forum it would be the other way hailing Bruce.I'm not sure why Brian isn't a member of the official Iron Maiden forum,maybe he is and he still posts here? lol! I think it goes beyond this forum,Rob is the Metal God and metal veterans know it,Maiden fans "know it".

They NEVER talk about actual vocal ability because they CAN'T and they know it! Of course Bruce runs around on stage more than Rob, he's got 4 minutes per song with nothing to do! I don't know about anyone else, but I want to hear the front man SING! And NO ONE does it better than Rob!
As for Rob's outfits in Priest and Halford, they all kick ass IMO. I just happen to really love the painkiller tour.

And that pic. you posted was not Rob Halford of Judas Priest,that is Fight,a project outside of Judas Priest wich has nothing to do with Rob's aesthetics in Judas Priest. From the "end" of the 1978 Stained Class tour till 2010 Rob has supported a 100% total "metal" aesthetic (except for the Turbo tour) while he was in Judas Priest. Bruce is extremely boring from the visual point of things.
Rob looks anything but boring,even if you don't care for his modern day look,his long black leather coats with tons of studs and spikes on them,his black leather pants,vests,with studs,boots,gloves,ect...still looks "metal" and looks "cool" on stage and in photos ect...you can beg to differ but just an observation,your the only individual on this website and off that has ever disliked Rob's current look/image,we have all said we liked other outfits better,but nobody has ever complained about his "metal" image these days,your the only one so he must be doing something right.

You can look back at that pic. I posted of Rob Halford in fight and see he looked totally unmetal. Yeah I know its not Priest but its still Rob Halford.

And we were discussing how "unmetal" Bruce Dickinson looks on a consistant basis,you forgot to mention that "cracker".
