Sounds to me like he could see what was going on up front as well as what was happening on the fringes, maybe he was backstage. Turns out it was a review from the Wacken Open Air Festival so after a couple of days of hard out moshing maybe the crowd were exhausted. Ozzy had the benefit of playing to them 24 hours earlier when they weren't so tired, hence the energy levels were higher when he played. He never at any point says that Priest played badly. He just says the crowd weren't as into it as they were the night before. More to the point, what I want to know is, with the back catalogue Priest have, why the fuck are they playing Prophecy of all songs? Tedious, unimaginative, standard metal riffs with annoying screechy voacls, stupid lyrics and the dumbest chorus ever a five year old could have thought up. If they are gonna crank out 15-20 songs that one doesn't deserve to be in there when thay have so many awesome tunes to pick from.

You could be right JJ but what was this guy doing off on the fringes? Eating Bratwurst and drinking beer most likely? That was his review from the bratwurst/beer table.

What he actually says is that they played a "pretty great gig" it was some of the fans (not all) who were a bit apathetic around the fringes. He says they did a great set that their fans would have loved but the crowd reaction paled in comparison to Ozzys show the night before. This is understandable, I think, because Ozzy has a much wider audience than what Priest has and even people who weren't diehard Ozzy fans would be familiar with the majority of his set. Hence the reason they perked up a bit when BTL was played. To tell you the truth I, as a big Priest fan for 20 years, would probably use Prophecy as a reason to go and grab a beer too. Also by the sounds of it this was a festival show so it's understandable that the crowds enthusiasm might have waned a little after however many hours moshing. And being a festival not necessarily everyone is there to see Priest anyway. I actually thought it was quite a favourable review and maybe it was taken as part of a review from the festival as a whole rather than a critique of Priests set alone.

Well, from the picture that Richie posted on FB of the crowd taken from the stage, it was a sea of people watching and loving Priest! Not to mention, the "reviewer" calls Prophecy "I am Nostradamus". Obviously NOT a Priest fan and can't even bother to get their facts straight before writing the review. Of course out of 77,000 people there, there are bound to be people that aren't there to see Priest and would hang out at the edges of the crowd with all the drunks.....  And the last remark I find interesting: Judas Priest played a great set, for Judas Priest fans.... well, NO SHIT! So were they supposed to only play their radio stuff and then leave, would that have made it a good set for this "reviewer"???

I find that hardly beliveable coming from none other than "Germany" the greatest place in the world for all styles of  metal.
Halford could have his worst night on the tour in Germany and they wouldn't care in the least,sounds like a fake report to me.

Sorry to hear this...

 

 

A two and a half hour headline set would be a lot for any band, but for Judas Priest – it’s just not worth it. The density and passion of those at the front made for a pretty great gig, but the telltale signs of apathy were to be seen around the edges where scores of tired and hungry rockers were ignoring the music in favour of bratwurst and a sit-down.

Acting every bit the metal gods they are in music history, covered in as many spiked studs as can fit on an entire suit made of leather and sporting some natty head tattoos, frontman Rob Halford spiralled about the stage swishing his fringed arms at the crowd during newer song ‘I am Nostradamus’. The on stage flames and laser displays weren’t enough to make this the epic headline performance it should have been, despite the talent and sheer classic metal high regard in which they are held.

Halford screamed into the night “Are you ready for Judas Priest style heavy metal?” to which one sleeping metal-head lifted his hat to say ‘Nein’. Fans perked up for ‘Breaking The Law’ and arrival of the huge black motorbike on stage. Ending the show wearing German flag, Halford sang them out in style.

Judas Priest played a great set, for Judas Priest fans. For everyone else, it paled in comparison to Ozzy’s previous nights’ performance.

I'm not there yet. I'm waiting for the word from the admins.
A second step in registering.
I suppose it's a good way to keep someone who's pissed off about something from just making an account and coming on the Q and starting a bunch of shit. Hopefully, I won't forget about signing up before they get back to me.
When/if I finally get registered, you'll know it's me.

So, why don't you just keep ignoring me instead of reading my messages, because that is what your ignore button is for? Sure you are on the Q, what a load of bullshit. You don't know squat about Priest or HALFORD and they would tear you apart for it! Why don't you comment over there about how great TOMMY Iommi is! LMFAO!!!

I signed up there for an account a long time ago. I can't log in though. Only logged in one time. Don't think I even posted anything. The email associated with the account is no longer active, so maybe that is way?

OK, so out of curiosity, I went over to the Q and signed up under my current email and got a confirmation mail right away but then this part shows up when your redirected back to the Q.

I still can't post. I don't care if they don't want me but I wish they would

Mushroomhead around the same time. Got on after a few days. I deactivated
my account there and went back about 2 weeks ago. It took them about 8
days but they let me back on. Can anyone clue me in to what I have to do
to be able to post there.

[HOT ROCKIN' METAL GODDESS] Monday, August 01, 2011 11:50:52 AM 
This was just posted this morning on the Q by Metal God Records:

Dear RH.com Visitors:

I withdrew my comments last week, for I chose not to sit on the sideline.

I have resolved all matters, and I will share general details of the resolution once the lawyers clean-up.

Rob Halford's participation in the tour was never an issue, and he will continue to tour with Judas Priest on its Farewell Tour.

Regards,

John Baxter

I registered a long time ago at the Q and sent many emails until the email box was full and they still did not register me. So all I can do is lurk.
[Eternal Servant] Monday, August 01, 2011 11:24:49 AM 
@HB, why post in the Q? In my case,  I love Rob and show respect to him. If someone trashes the shit out of him, I'll say my opinion to defend him even if my fanboy attitude makes me look like an idiot. It's a fun place full of hilarious dudes such as the original bassist of Vicious Rumors, Dave Starr who loves Judas Priest / HALFORD.
If one is thin-skinned and can't take criticizms on his/her opinions in public, then lurking is good enough. 
I've been attacked by trolls but I'm OK and actually mended misunderstanding through pms. 

On top right of the site, there's Contacts section. Try sending a message if you can. Many mention it takes time to get registered. I waited for a while and I almost forgot
about registering.

Perhaps if I typed in green, you would understand the first point of my message you seemed to miss: "I don't mean to stir up shit..."

I got your reference to "soap drama." Did you understand the first part of my message? That I didn't intend to stir shit? Why on Earth would you bring it up? 

I do appreciate your reference to me as a "marathon man," though. My last was actually in support of JAPAN! WTF? Please make all correspondence to me in the future in the name of "SCUBA man," ok? That is my latest interest.

As for the Q? You obviously have no idea who I am there. Look closer. How about that? Done with this topic. RATT RULZ!

What I meant "natural" is to think the message from JB was deleted because he didn't want it there.
Soap opera = drama = JB message-gate
Meanwhile I'll work on my English, you'll keep updating on that pendant situation.

While the scenario you describe is, indeed, "natural" at the Q it has certainly not always been the case. You could certainly give as many examples as I could.

As for the rest of your message to me, I frankly don't understand what you are trying to say (save for forget the uhhh .... "soap" .... drama)? An English problem, to be sure. Believe me, though, I keep my soap on a rope so there is nothing to drop. LOL!
