    Rammstein will win easily, but had to give it to GIAA

    I voted for Rammstein. I've been waiting a long time to see them, and the gig more than lived up to my expectations. It was a great show and a great set.

    But having said that, both Steve Vai and God is an Astronaut were amazing gigs. They definitely made it a harder choice. Steve Vai in particular.

    But we all knew who was going to win this one :P

    I've heard that the Vai gig was 'Wankology' of the highest order ;)

    Think they only got 1 nomination so didn't make the poll.

    If you'd all come out to Lamb of God instead of staying home to watch Corrie these results would be looking mighty different :p

    Voted for Rammstein in the end, but GIAA pushed it very close!

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test
