Good review. Thank you, Marktheshark.
Nice of Glen to share his germs with you all.

Could have been a little longer, but I guess this was the shorter 90 min. set they are playing at The Metal Masters Tour. The crowd was great and the band was in great spirits the whole show. From the second row, you could tell Glen had a bit of a cold as he kept wiping his nose a few times and it was a bit red. That didn't stop him from really getting into the show though. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen Glen so animated and into it. Rob was great and his singing was spot on, even though he does sing some songs in a lower register than the albums (Dissident Aggressor being one). Highlights were many-Devils Child, Rock Hard, Ride Free (including crowd sing-a-long), Hell Patrol, and of course the classics-HBFL and GMWTTPC. Only one song (Prophecy) off Nostradamus (2 if you count the intro Dawn of Creation) which kind of surprised me. I thought they were playing Death on this tour but I guess not. Overall, this was a great Priest show-great crowd, great setlist, band was into it. Got to meet the band prior to the show- great bunch of guys. Let's hope they stick around for a couple more tours at least.
I want to give a shoutout to soylentgreen4U and dambanker and his wife for keeping me company throughout the day. Hope you made it home ok sg4U. |

Priest kicked ass at the Toronto show. Rob had some interesting outfits, his voice ripped through the whole show, he was very friendly with the crowd, looking at individuals in a really familiar friendly way, kissing the Canadian flag at times. Scott's cymbals were flyin' all over the place and his thundering double bass roared and made the entire arena tremble. KK & Glenn were an explosive duo, particularly Ken oozing out some aggressive shredding solos, and Glenn rocking out hard as usual. Ian Hill really made himself present this time around. The only little problem we had was some asshole of a guy in the crowd booing at all Painkiller and post-Painkiller songs deeming them as not real 'Priest, eventually another guy got angry with him and I hope he bashed the shit out of this asshole. I moved down to the moshpit when security guards weren't looking. Simply to say...the night fucking rocked. See you in Sydney Judas Priest. |

PNC art center NJ, setlist cut short by 5 songs Because of Holmdels bullshit noise ordinance. Less than an hour and a half of Priest? WTF? PNC's security sucked. How could I miss most of 4 songs from the second row center? Answer! a bunch of drunken idiots trying to get to the stage that were trampling everyone in site including Me and my Wife as security is watching this happen and shrugging his shoulders as I'm telling him to do something about it. And then 4 idiots get past security and get on stage during the concert. Nothing against Priest this was out of their control , But alot against PNC art center, This was the Worst Priest show ever at PNC and I've seen them in concert Here in the past few years and had a Great time. I've seen them elsewhere and had a Great time. I've been a true fan for 32 years and have always enjoyed their concerts. I have to agree the sound was Great . The meet and greet was a cattle call at best. Don't bring a camera, we'll post the picture on our website for you, OK ,went to see my picture with the band and low and behold it's not there, Nor are alot of fans pictures who paid their good hard earned money. Would I ever pay $400.00 for a ticket with a meet and greet again? NO F--king way. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best, I rate this concert at PNC a -2.
