Jon rocks!! Seen him and Iced Earth in Vienna in February, its one thing to watch him play in videos, but when you see (and hear) that perfection live, its just breathtaking!
BTW: Love that scream at the end from Paul Stanley :-)
i love the song too.. ripper did an amazing job. actually i like jon's vocals too there. but the album is a bit weaker.i dont know, i still like it though..
Sometimes poltical messages are necessary - like his: 1776, Ghost of Freedom, Declaration Day, Valley Forge... we need more Jon. Please! Now more than ever we need more like that!
This guy is pretty insane playing rhythm:) I love listening and watching him play! In my mind, along with Hedfield he is one of the very best in the world:)
Bad questions posed , but still good interview... always nice to get a look inside the minds of the gods...

I didn't know that there's such a sympathic person behind Iced Earth.
I think he could be an idol for me.
Well, I like if songs have lyrics with contence. It don't has to be political, because politics are transient and change from day to day.
I liked the Something Wicked Saga, which criticizes today's society and I want more of this stuff.
