Your 5 favourite bands.

[Nigh Invulnerable]

1. Blind Guardian
2. Avantasia
3. Demons & Wizards/Iced Earth
4. Sabaton
5. Helloween (during their years with Kiske)

I have a lot more, but it was hard enough just choosing five out of the lot, so I won't bother trying to list more favorites.

Avantasia
Masterplan
Power Quest
Angra
Heavenly

Someone else who's heard of Avantasia? You've knocked my socks off, sir.

I find your choice of Legolas for your avatar very appropriate considering your musical taste. POWER METAL!!!!!
