So long as "band" is singular, you should be forced to narrow it down to one.

Toping my list:

Judas Priest.

[AngusMcTavish]

^ Bet you're psyched about the new Priest CD coming next month, the double-disc rock opera for Nostradamus!

[Marjax]

Not that psyched. We'll see how it is first -- lots of times, concept albums tank. I'm not getting my hopes up, but then again, any new Priest is exciting.

Growing up I never though I'd get to see them with Halford live, but thank God it happened. They kicked my ass, it was a great show.

[AngusMcTavish]

^ As far as concept albums go, I would recommend W.A.S.P.'s "The Crimson Idol."

[marvel_freak_42]

Or Dream Theater's "Scenes from a Memory"... that one's badass.

Death Metal-

If anyone out there has seen them on tour, could you please tell me...:

How does that even work? Is there just a movie screen while the actual performers play behind it or what?

Just curious.

I heard it was a like a Gorillaz concert, where the performers play on stage and there's a really big screen over them with the virtual band characters. I wish I could go see for myself, though. It sounds really cool...
