Hard to choose between G'n'R and Metallica. I don't really like Metallica at all but their video for Whiskey in a jar is one of my faves.

Do you think there'll ever be an At home with the Iommi's tv show?

Easy - Sabbath, I guess GnR are more rock, but I just don't wanna vote for them.

damn this one is hard.

I grew up on GnR. Like Metallica but they turned into prissy prima donnas over the whole music online thing.
Love Tool, but to be honest they are on the slide towards emo. Sabbath I only picked up on after growing up.

I guess it has to be GnR given their influence on my childhood.
AFK.

My GnR tolerance wore out many years ago. I just don't see what the fuss is/was about anymore.

Oh damn. Theres no way I can possibly make a decision. I like all four of those bands A LOT. But all for different reasons. :cry:

I'm going to actually go for Metalica, not becasue they are better, but because they were the band that inspired me to pick up a guitar as a teenager.

Black Sabbath. Iron Man and War Pigs are great songs, fun to play. Don't know Tool well enough and the other two are kinda boring...
