Dead Planet

Mystery Road came out on ABC Australia and Brokenwood was on Prime NZ....

Another tough pick....loved Scorpions, Crazy Lixx, Bach, Gotthard, HS and the Poodles but I have to go with PC69....

Some very good releases ....Vains Of Jenna, Wig Wam, Poodles, Brother Firetribe and House of Lords....have to go with HOL as it is my fav release by them but the others are very close.....

Lift U Up is my favorite song off Lipservice....

My favorite Kiwi show is The Brokenwood Mysteries and favorite Aussie show is Mystery Road.....

Most of the shows I watch are US or UK (about 50% each) with the occasional Aussie and even Kiwi show thrown in.....

Gotthard....

Tough one ....PC69, Brides of Destruction, Exodus, Edguy, Velvet Revolver, Wig Wam, Tesla and Frontline... all could win one of these 'best of polls' for me.....if I have to pick one right this minute, I'll go with Exodus....

McQueen Street....

Jaded Heart...although LA Guns, Dark Sky, Lordi are very good....

It's one thing to have a small conflict in Afghanistan or in some other shitty little country but it is a much different thing to have a conflict with a nuclear power that could lead to a significant confrontation....the US will not confront Putin unless he attacks a NATO country and then they will have no choice....

That deployment is to Poland or Romania I believe and it is to calm the fears of several former Soviet states that are concerned that the Russians might attack more than just the Ukraine.....all American troops in the area will be in NATO countries unless they change their mind and I would be shocked if that happened as Biden does not want direct conflict with Russia.....and neither does anyone else....

Say what? My understanding is that the US is not sending any troops to the Ukraine....as far as I know Canada has more troops in the Ukraine than the US does...

Thunder - All The Right Noises

Giant....

I had to google TC&TS as I had no idea which release it was....lol

Damned Nation....

Steelhouse Lane.....

Big Bad Wolf....

Tower City edges out Gotthard.....

Hammerfall.....

D.A.D.....as it is their best IMO....
