on a different topic, I was half watching top chef duals last night while working on my laptop, when I hear something about heavy metal, I look up and they introduce not some twit from Korn or Poison but Scott Ian, Gary Holt and Rob Zombie. Very cool

I went twice to the portapotty and stopped drinking altogether!! No chance I was going to miss being up front for Priest because I had to wait in a ridiculous line to pee!! Well, I wouldn't have. I would have done like the one girl and dropped drawers in the corner with the guys! Now THAT was a sight!! Actually, I would have gone BEHIND the portapotty so my ass was only visible IF someone drove by behind them It was quite hilarious to see the guys peeing in the corner while Steel Panther was being interviewed on the other side of the curtained fence!! Perhaps they were giving their review of their set!

Back in the day they would have given 1/2 hour for those lesser bands. KORN WOULD NOT STOP!!!! I remember Pine Knob when they had Metal Church on the main stage. Only a few of us there but, hell, I moved from the hill into the front seats with the 50 others who really liked them. What about the good ol' days?!?

Why should Priest get the same amount of time as Limp Bizkit? FUCK THAT!! Seriously, I can't believe how many people were into that set. Definitely NOT my thing! Stone Temple Pilots was GREAT and the only band that I truly enjoyed seeing other than Priest.

A lot of people in their 20's. I really think ROS has brought in a younger crowd which is awesome to see. The people around me knew ALL the songs too, not just the radio songs.
Yes, we definitely needed MORE PORTAPOTTYS!!! But with VIP, the food lines weren't as bad as the regular crowd had to endure and our line for the bar was almost non-existent AND we had somewhere to sit down to eat/drink/chat away from the wind. But the "gourmet" food? WHERE THE FUCK WAS THAT???!!! Like Spa, I would rather have had fried food on a stick than that overpriced crap they called "gourmet"! WHO THE FUCK puts an EGG on a GYRO??!!! BLEH!
The best part for me besides seeing Priest was hanging out with everyone - Ron, Bev, Vail, Randy, Spa and others that are not here on the board!! I truly love each and every one of you!

HRMG I have to agree, ROS definately has caught the imagination of the younger generation....people up here young and old seem to LOVE the album too...ROS is a masterpiece.
There are far far more people who love it vs. people who dislike it......THAT is obvious.
I dont see how one COULDNT like it if they claim to be a fan of quality Judas Priest.

| sounds a lot like the first, and last monsters of rock festival in calgary. Priest played, it was mostly a ozzfest lineup, with priest added. 90 min line to get in, missed the first band. bathrooms were ok just 20 min wait. Beer line over 2 hours. Burger 90 min, thankfully we went just before a thunderstorm, so were undercover for that. |

Acolyte. Yup, that was the setlist. And yes, the VIP experience could've been better. More port-a-potties, to start. Took every fiber of my being not to squat and go while in line.

Delays when your exhausted. REALLY REALLY SUCK!
I know the feeling. Once lost the connecting flight home in NY after our flight out of Greece made us too late to catch it. Spent 8 hours in the airport all jet lagged trying to get a room assignment from Olympic. Finaly got a room at midnight and had to be up and ready for our next flight by 5 am. Sucked bad.
Good to see you finally made it.

I'm finally awake and able to function. It was a great weekend and I really enjoyed meeting up with old friends and new and enjoying our time together. Loss of sleep and freezing my ass off were the negatives of the weekend.
The show was incredible but too short. Nothing Priest could do about that though aside from sending a hit squad to bump off Korn. That would have been a good idea. lol
Rob was in great form! He moved with an ease I had not seen in years and it was truly a blessing to see it. Glenn was fantastic, Scott was spot on, Ian was smiling and seemed at ease, and Ritchie was incredible too. I was shocked to hear Turbo Lover, but I found I didn't mind it. Valhalla was great! Rob nailed the part from low to high on that song! I'm not so good with breaking a set list down for individual reviews so I'll just say It was an awesome show and I just wish we could have heard them for another hour. I'm selfish that way.
This was the first Live and Loud Festival and it might be the last if the people who put this shit together didn't learn a thing or two. I have a list of compaints about the VIP experience there. I could care less that they hung chandaliers from the tent tops. What matters is this. Is there enough bathrooms to keep people from standing in line for far too long? NO. Is there enough casual seating in the eating areas? NO. Is the food advertised as Gormet good? NO I'd rather have state fair things on sticks. I know what to expect from that. Not a suprise gyro with egg. (yuck).

He really wanted to talk to the crowd but was unable to due to time - they only allowed Priest to play for 65 minutes. At one point, Rob looked over to the side stage and asked if he was allowed to talk saying, "Do I have time to talk?" Rob seemed dead set on proving just WHY he is THE ONE AND ONLY METAL GOD! He went for the highs with everything he had. Did he hit them all? No and I don't expect him to, but he hit most of them and when he did, the crowd ROARED with appreciation!! Rob was constantly moving - the back surgery obviously has done him wonders and he is able to move pain free again which is wonderful to see! He did not stand in front of the teleprompter, rather glanced at the words if he needed to and then looked up at the crowd to sing the words. I have always been impressed with Rob's humility and the fact that he is always a gentleman. He never puts others down in order to build himself up because he is strong and confident in himself and he lets his performance speak for itself. So for me this performance was a direct answer to both Paul Di'Anno and Bruce Dickinson's negative comments about him. All I have to say to Paul and Bruce is: JEALOUS MUCH??!!
It was a FANTASTIC weekend! We had an absolute BLAST! It was an honor to be a part of such a great group of people. We truly are a metal family here on the Board.
We made it home safely, stopping at a Waffle House for breakfast and Bilbo's in Portage for dinner. Damn I miss my Hobbit Stix and dill dip being so close in East Lansing!! Glad to see you made it home safe and sound!

To the 11 or so of us who made it there, I hope you all made it home safely! Whatta blast!!! Great show, all in all. Can't wait until Detroit to "hopefully" see the full NY set.
JD. Could be your phone. You should see the link that says "Inbox" right above "Member:.... /Emai: .... " If you don't see THOSE, then my money is on the phone causing the error.

@Nupe, they have announced in Sweden i believe , finland i am sure will follow , if they are celebreting 30 years of DOTF then do it right , give us freewheel burning and the sentinel again, also it says "defenders of the faith" as a song , the last time i heard that was 1990 when it was the song that played when the lights came on , do they mean the "heavy duty" intro to DOTF?????

Maybe this setlist is their way of celebrating the 30th anniversary of DOTF... man, there's some great live songs there! Can't wait for when they confirm European dates (they've visited Finland on every major tour since 2005 so I don't see why they wouldn't come here again).

guido I saw your request for them to play Dragonaut....hell yeah Im stoked too!
Fuckin Dragonaut man...no its not Priests best track(what is?) but damn it has one of the best "riffs" especially the riff played right when Rob kicks in...its fuckin head banging material man....
For the amount of "SHIT" I gave this band ....
(claiming Saxon the new Heavy Metal kings while Priest took a break and did Nostradamus)
......and every shit thing I said inbetween...
Redeemer Of Souls made me eat my words BIG TIME!! Shame on me and hail the almighty Judas Priest!!

This doesn't surprise me one bit. Rob was NEVER the one that wanted to retire. I was at the HALFORD show in Grand Rapids, MI the very night Priest announced their retirement. It was clear to me that Rob was NOWHERE near ready to retire. People were pinning the retirement announcement on Rob and I came back from that show and put that idea to rest - saying there was NO WAY that it was Rob!! I was right. Rob isn't slowing down anytime soon!!

You know I've been checking out the comments left behind about the new Judas Priest album since the album came out in July and at first the comments were very negative about the production about the title track even before July when I came out but now two months after the record is released it is hard to find negative comments about this magnificent glorious album.
30 years from now even this record will be deemed as one of the top three albums of Judas Priest.
I remember 30 years ago in 1984 when defenders of the faith was released there were some people skeptics that were calling the album a commercial failure but that was only a few and now 30 years later it's deemed as one of the best Judas Priest records there is.
