[HOT ROCKIN' METAL GODDESS] Thursday, May 26, 2011 6:32:23 PM
Put the free publicity they just got aside, think about it like this: here is this young singer that absolutely LOVES Judas Priest, so much so that he sang a Priest song for the first time ever on American Idol. James has been flying the metal flag on that show, exposing people to metal that never would have listened to it otherwise. Then, for the finale show, they ask the contestants who they want to perform with. James says Judas Priest. Now, knowing how much Priest loves their fans, I don't see them turning him down. How could they? No matter how you see that show, and I NEVER watch it by the way, it was a big honor for them to be there with megastars from all genres of music. I see it more as flying the flag for metal proudly rather than selling out, but I can see that it may look like that.
