Sad Wings of Destiny - Judas Priest album art but tinted blue, well cuz reasons.
Great band. Saw them in ‘91 on the Pain Killer tour.

Sad Wings has The Ripper and Victim of Changes on it, IIRC.

Loved the late 70’s stuff. They were good in the 80’s, but the heavier stuff from the late 70’s was really good.

Beyond the Realms of Death is probably my fave Priest tune.

What is your avatar? Explain yourself!

Mine used to the The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy thumb, but changed it to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway 'wheel and wings' cause I love the 500 and just a few min from the Speedway.
Mine is a picture from the Atkins Travis Traveling Show album by Chet Atkins
And Merle Travis.
My guitar heroes!

Priest Rules. Stained Class through Screaming for Vengeance is as good as it gets and there’s plenty that’s great before and after that stretch too. So sad Glenn Tipton can’t perform any more due to Parkinson’s setting in.

I think Catphight, the photoshop wiz we all love on this board is a big Priest fan too. His avatar is the Hell Bent For Leather album cover.

Painkiller is probably my least favorite Halford album. It’s absolutely fantastic speed/thrash metal proving they could compete with the best of that era, Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, Anthrax, Slayer and their ilk, but to me it wasn’t really what I loved about Priest. However A Touch of Evil is classic Priest and killer. To me they peaked in the 80s on Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of the Faith. The Sentinel and Hellion/Electric Eye are two of my favorite metal songs all time.

I do really love the old stuff too though. The Ripper is nuts, Exciter felt like one of the first power metal songs with that driving double bass. And who can forget Delivering the Goods, The Green Manalishi, Sinner, and Dreamer Deceiver/Deceiver.

And for all the flak it gets Turbo is awesome, Turbo Lover is unabashedly 80s and I love it.

Yes, Electric Eye is the greatest. Love me some Dissident Aggressor, Grinder and Metal Gods along with those you mentioned as well. Now I know what I’m listening to in my workout here in a bit!

I get told I look like Jim Halpert. Plus, I like the show and the practical jokes he plays on Dwight

I really don't need to explain mine but best coach behind Rupp, played the most exciting basketball I ever witnessed, and assembled the best team ever to win the NCAA championship in 1996. Plus it also has my all time favorite player 00!

Used to just have a UK logo with the wildcat behind the UK logo. I switched it up and am now on the Seattle Sonics since I kind of miss their presence in the NBA. I wanted to do their older logo, but this one fit better in the avatar circle. Not sure what I'll do for my next avatar, which may be coming soon lol

I am a mix of 90% Foghorn and maybe 10% little egghead on a good day.

It is a constant struggle, though.
