I'm not a 12-year-old schoolgirl so I don't consider any of the musicians I listen to my 'heroes'. Sorry. And the list of the ones I hate would be far too large to bother typing up.

OH NOES HE LIKES A DIFFERENT GENRE OF METAL THAN I DO HE MUST BE A GAY

Do you guys discuss metal in this forum or do you just make shitty lists to stick on your myspace.

P.S he listed one power metal group (Stratovarius), three heavy metal/NWOBHM groups (Rainbow, Maiden and Priest) a vocalist who has sung in Iced Earth (a power group) and Judas Priest (a heavy metal group) in Ripper Owens and a guitarist/vocalist from a thrash metal group (Dave Mustaine)... Oh and a progressive metal group(dream theater).

WOW one and a half power metal icons
 
Don't have many "heroes", actualy. Some people i just like to listen to, but not praying at them... From the one's, who interrest me as humans also, i can point out Vintersorg, maybe.
And i don't have any "hated list". Don't have so much energy and time to waste on hating :)) But from the unrespected ones i can name Ozzy Osbourne. He used to be a really good musician, but now he's just a dumb old guy with a stupid show and a tyrrant-wife.

Btw, it's rather funny to find the same persons among ur "Heroes" and "non-Heroes" =D
