Yes . The 1st time I saw them was in Charlotte NC for the RAM IT DOWN tour, a great night. The 2nd was at the Alltel Pavilion in Raleigh NC on the OPERATION ROCK & ROLL tour in 1991. I had good seats , maybe 10-12th row, and after Alice Cooper gave us a hell of an opening show the PRIEST came out and blew everybody away. It is definitely one of the best concerts I ever been to. It was hot as hell and the audience was wild, drinking beer and taking their clothes off, and the boys were playing like madmen, The last time I saw them was again in the same place in Raleigh as part of OZZFEST 2004. They played a great show " opening" for BLACK SABBATH....but...after that...nothing.
They never came near for the ANGEL OF RETRIBUTION or NOSTRADAMUS or the BRITISH STEEL ANNIVERSARY TOUR.
SO yeah, I'm super happy with my 4th row tix and will keep hoping that they schedule some more shows maybe in Charlotte, Virginia. South Carolina or somewhere close so I can go see them again.
ISN'T IT STRANGE THAT THEY HAVEN'T SCHEDULED ANY CONCERTS IN HUGE CITIES LIKE BOSTON, CHARLOTTE, ATLANTA, DC, ETC WHILE THEY HAVE A BUNCH OF SHOWS IN CANADA & TEXAS ???? MAYBE THERE WILL BE A SECOND USA TOUR LEG?? ANYBODY KNOW?? LET'S HOPE.
