Metal frontmen are awesome as people I think. there's obvious exceptions of course but people like Dio, Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson have a real professionalism and intelligence about them. I have nothing but total respect for them. I dunno. It's easy to take the piss out of them. They are over the top and absolute egomaniacs, but you always get the feeling that underneath everything they'd be the first to take the piss out of themselves. They certainly don't need some twat like Jack Black to do it for them. A lot of people in showbiz could learn quite a bit about conducting themselves in public by following the example set by the likes of Dio and Halford. Metal guitarists are, of course, quite the opposite. Irony free morons with the dignity of a crack whore.
