Saw the (St. Louis) St. Charles, MO show last night after driving in from Kansas City. WOW! Whitesnake was good, but Coverdale's vocals are strained and his range is capoot! Nothing like when I saw him in 1984 ad 1986. Enjoyed several of the Slide It In tracks, but TOOOO much pop crap from there...
Judas Priest DID NOT dissapoint! After seeing them 6-8 since 1984, I would have to say that this was by far one of the most energetic and lively shows I've ever seen them play. Seeing British Steel in it's entirety was absoltely amazing. LOVED seeing Victim of Changes again, Rock Hard/Ride Free was great. Wish they would have played Touch of Evil or some other 70's goods, but the band was truly amazing! Wish I could afford to go out and see them at Red Rocks. That will be THE show of the year!
Go see the Mighty Priest! After 32 years I still LOVE this band!!!! |

| I was there at Indianapolis. They did play Prophecy, not Nostradamus. |

Thank you for the review! Are you sure they played Nostradamus and not Prophecy? Many people cnfound this two songs....
I hope they played "Nostradamus"! If so- how was it?

| Nothing from any of those albums. I was really surprised they didn't play anything from the Painkiller album. Still an awesome show. Steeler was awesome to hear in concert. |

Thanks for the info... Did Priest play any Turbo, Ram it Down or Painkiller songs or maybe Desert Plains?

| A week and a half until the first show of the tour...still no word on supporting act(s)! Will Priest entertain us the whole time? That would be awesome to have an extra long set instead of an opening act! |

Hey everybody,
I have 2 extra tickets, front row and sixth row, to the Cleveland show on 7/14. I am selling them at face value to Priest fans.
The front row ticket is in section 3, row A, seat 1, and costs $144. This is in the right section on Glenn's side and the seat is on the aisle by the center section.
The sixth row ticket is in section 2, row F, seat 3, and costs $90. This is in the center section and the seat is on KK's side.
I can accept PayPal or a money order. I will send them for free using USPS priority mail with a delivery confirmation number.
Please send me a PM if you're interested in one or both.
Thanks.
Markus

That's an awesome story and great you have been able to catch them so many times. Kentucky is not exactly the metal capital of the south (lol). I had other opprotunities but at the time the travel made it cost prohibitive (I was young and broke).

well, i waited and waited and there was no mention of the holmdel show on TM or the venue's site, even though the shows immediately before AND after were already listed on TM and on sale.
LUCKILY, the second round of shows (including merriweather post in MD) was announced before the holmdel tickets went on sale!! had i bought tickets to that shithole PNC center in holmdel, and then 'they' announced a closer better venue, i would have been ROYALLY PISSED OFF!
ALL DATES should be announced at the same time, period. i dont' wanna hear "that's the way the music industry operates" excuses. MAKE IT HAPPEN. the whole process is utter bullshit, and THE FANS are the ones being screwed.
in the past 25 years, concert ticket prices have risen 1000%!! and what have the fans gotten for all that extra money? ticketbastard, ticket brokers, and the end of 'first come-first served' ticket availabilty for the best seats. everybody involved in the process is getting rich and the fans are getting shit on.

sorry, bluddy, the word "they" in my first sentence wasn't necessarily referring to the band or this website. it was referring to whoever is responsible for the mess that i described.
another reason i'm so pissed off about the whole 'buying concert tickets' runaround is this: the first dates announced for this tour did not include any shows near my home (Lancaster PA). the closest was the PNC Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ, which i was reluctantly willing to travel to in order to see JP, even though everything i saw on the net said that venue sucks with a capital "S".

| Atlanta! Yes! Thank you! I can't wait, haven't seen them since '05. C'mon Mid-South metal maniacs, let's pack the place for the Priest! |

Judas Priest doesn't have any control over what TicketMaster or LiveNation include or exclude. If the basic deal for the show has been set but the details are still to be sorted out, the venues and ticket agents can't post such info until it's complete. JudasPriest.com is doing you a favor by letting you know that a show is planned, even if ticket info is not posted.

i'm so sick of all the bullshit runaround when buying concert tickets. on sale dates are always announced at the last minute, making it extremely difficult to assemble your crew and get confirmation from everyone. prices and purchase limits aren't available until the tickets are on sale and you're "on the clock".
i'd like to see a CONCERT FANS' BILL OF RIGHTS:
- on sale dates will be announced well in advance, at least 2 weeks. this announcement must include ticket prices AND purchase limits. fans should be able to view seating/pricing charts in advance. it's next to impossible to get confirmation from friends when you can't tell them ticket prices, seating charts or how many tickets can be bought together.
- ticket brokering must end now! first come, first served must be the rule!

Joe,
I haven't heard who will be opening. My ticket just says Judas Priest. I've been watching with some anticipation about who the opening act will be, too. |

Does anyone know where I can find JP setlists that span their entire career? (Or most of it) |

| Do you get Pre-sale tickets only by subscribing to Ticket Rush? That's what it seems if you go to LiveNation. How come JP doesn't explain Pre-sale tx details on this site? LiveNation blows. I didn't realize that Blockbuster made this deal with LiveNation to promote this Tour! Fat cats and Corporate blowhards. |
