justice is blind

This expression means that justice is impartial and objective. There is an allusion here to the Greek statue for justice, wearing a blindfold so as not to treat friends differently from strangers, or rich people better than the poor ones.
No matter who you are, you must respect the law. Justice is blind!

Blind optimism

Thinking everyone you like will also be someone you can trust would be blind optimism, and at some point reality shows somebody that not everybody you like will be someone you also trust.
The charming guy/girl was hard not to like, but after years of being around this guy/girl, the blind optimism that started the relationship (friendship) ended up getting a bit more realistic when one party knew they'd never fully trust the other, attempt after attempt at trusting the other party had shown them that. When life was not a party, the people they liked the most were seldom the ones they could continue to trust.

Blind Guardian

What can I say? A great Power Metal band liked by great people.

I would argue than Nightfall in Middle Earth is their best album, but again, they all rock. With amazing voal talent by Hansi Kursch, Andre Olbirch on guitars, Marcus Siepen on bass, and Thomas "Thomen" Stauch on percussion, they just kick ass. They originate from Krefeld, Germany.

Curse of Feanor and Bright eyes! WOO!
Alec: Dude, did you see Blind Guardian at Bloodfest?
