Carlos, power metal can be a beautiful thing, only if
it's done correctly. It can be very monotonous
sometimes, but there are bands that manage to keep it
fresh, despite them all having double bass drumming on
many parts of the songs. Bands like Kamelot,
Helloween, Gamma Ray, Rhapsody, Angra, Symphony X
(although they're a mix between prog and power) make
excellent music that always sounds fresh, with
excellent melodies and musicianship.

Those bands you've mentioned are pretty cool, but they are just the
tip of a mighty big ice berg.
European power metal is still the best, bands like Sonata Arctica
[Ecliptica] have breathed new life and kicked the ass of several of
those old stale sounding bands you mentioned.

In case anybody missed it, 2 guitar legends made an 'appearance' in the latest issue of the Onion (theonion.com):
>> Steve Vai Impresses The Hell Out Of Neighborhood Kids
GLENDALE, CA Rock guitarist Steve Vai wowed a group of neighborhood children with his spectacular guitar pyrotechnics Monday. "His behind-the-head guitar solo was so wicked," said Jimmy Hetzel, 11, one of six children blown away by Vai's fretboard wizardry. "He also did this thing where he held the guitar between his legs and played it with a bow." The impromptu performance is believed to be the most impressive display of its kind since September 2000, when Joe Satriani "showed off a few licks" at a Southfield, MI, bar mitzvah. >>
