One of the first albums I ever bought was "Piece of Mind." Though I don't listen to metal anymore, it's easy to say that Iron Maiden is one of the most intelligent bands out there. It's kick ass that they continued their set and wouldn't let it get to them in the way the Osbournes apparently hoped it would. In fact, from what I read from the link, this incident actually made their set even better. I'm sure this is not what the Osbournes had in mind when they planned this stunt.
I enjoyed reading that the audience booed Sharon off the stage then left in droves. They couldn't have sent a better message.
