Hello Spa! It was a great b-day - also got the JP British Steel mug and skull earrings from my bestie - Methib, who I met here on the JP noticeboard!!!! Hellrider - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Don't kill my guitar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although after these first couple of days with "The Tipton", as I named it......the frustration level is making my feel to smash it to bits too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I got a Fender acoustic for my b-day from my hubby, cause he doesn't think I'm too old to be a Rockstar....and my daughter got me the Electric Eye DVD....more happy, I could not be!!!!!!

Part of my job is to make registration forms for seminars, and for the latest one I used the "Judas Priest" font! If anyone notices, I'll let them in for free. I downloaded the font from 1001 Free Fonts. They also have Iron Maiden. It doesn't come up in the Search for some reason, so the link goes right to the "J's".

Thanks, Becks! I'm still flying from Tuesday night. Every night when I go to bed, I keep trying to re-live the whole concert. I don't want to forget anything, or lose a single detail. But now I'm kinda down, too, because for months I had this incredible thing to look forward to, and every day was bringing me closer to the it, but now....now we all have to wait for that rush to come round again...

Dear Spa, HRMG, Acolyte, Guido and gang:
There are no FREAKING words to descrive the forever life-changing evening I spent with JP last night. Where to begin -
Thin Lizzy kicked ASS big time. Thoroughly enjoyed them. Those boys can rock. Got a guitar pick, too!
Black Label Society. Lots of talent, but not my cup of tea. Zakk is an INSANE guitarist, but it's not melodic to my ears, just a whole lot of violent thrash, which has its appeal to lots of fans, but not me. And seriously dude - what's with the spitting?????
So, after the last stage changes, Battle Hymn starts, and Priest comes out. I don't know what to say. Our seats were front row floors, on the right side, so I spent the evening gettting to know Glenn, who was pretty much parked in front of us when he wasn't bopping around the stage. It's hard to describe everything - it really was like I was in a crazy dream (and no, I wasn't stoned!!!!)
Ian - man he can rock - and he is still beautiful!! He was too far back to see that well over the speakers, unless I was on my tiptoes, but at one point while Ritchie was doing his solo, and everyone was looking stage left, Ian was just strumming and keeping the bass rhythm going, I started waving frantically to him and he noticed my arms and turned to look at me. Every pair of eyes is on Ritchie at this point, but I'm screaming "IAN!!!! IAN!!!!" and he starts laughing.
Scott - WHAT AN ANIMAL!!!!!!!!! I don't know what blew me away more - his machine-like precision or his bare arms. I don't know how he does it.
Ritchie - OK, he's not KK, but the boy can play. He fit in beautifully, and there was a great dynamic between him and Glenn, and strangely, I found he could pass for Glenn's son. Kudos to him for stepping into KK's shoes, and for looking quite happy about being up there with the rest of the Gods. But, truthfully, I did miss the dynamic I've seen in many a concert video, between KK and Glenn.
Glenn........GLENNNNN!!!!! OMG!!!!!!! From the moment he came out, I went berserk! I can't believe that this rockstar that I have idolized for YEARS was like arm's length away from me. He is unbelievable!!! He loves what he's doing, STILL, and it is sooo apparent. He loves his fans, too, and we were freaking out that he was that close and could see what we were saying - I yelled out GLENN I LOVE YOU!!!!!! and he winked at me, I thought I was going to DIE!!!!!! He was there right in front of us the whole night. I don't think I've even processed this yet...and it feels so surreal. He is a freaking axe-wizard extraordinaire. It was just like I dreamed, but BETTER! I could have watched him forever. I'm still feeling a little nuts right now!
Rob. ROB HALFORD! Holy Shit! What can you say????? I thought I was going to pee myself or cry hysterically when I first looked at him. But I behaved. Here he was - my IDOL....and he's still got it. That voice is like magic. Sure, he's aged, and the voice has changed, but he nailed everything he did. I loved how he talked between some of the songs. Does he ever own the stage when he's out there. He didn't spend a lot of time on our side of the stage, but he put on a hell of a show - the costume changes, the Harley....The audience was nuts, absolutely nuts for him. When Breaking the Law started, my husband's like - "Doesn't he sing this any of this song?" The crowd was bouncing and banging like an ocean storm. I was so glad about the setlist - got to hear Heading Out to The Highway live, and The Sentinel, etc,...there were some things I really missed, like most of DOTF and SFV, and TYRANT (Rob - next time, please!!!!) but maybe next time. The 2 hours and change went by so quickly, I couldn't believe when YGATC started, and then LAM, and then it was over. I almost thought about jumping the stage when they were all holding hands together for the final bow...but then Glenn jumped down to give out picks, and when he got to me and handed it to me, he held on to my hand for a moment, looked into my eyes, and then I blew him a kiss and he blew it back! My hubby let me have my teenage moment without any grief, which was AWESOME!
Will I see them again? Damn right I will, come hell or high water. If I had the money, I'd follow them across the globe for the whole tour. They're in Quebec for the next 2 nights.....hmmmmmm, that's only 6 hours drive or so...... But really - best night of my life. I'm just sorry I waited so long. God Bless those boys, and I just want to thank them from the bottom of my heart for keeping me young, and keeping a song in my heart. Love you boys forever!

Spa, Vail, Acolyte, Guido, HRMG, Metallo and crew - you guys all rock. Thanks for 'getting' me. I have to say - I've 'met' some awesome people on this site, and my dream is for all of us to meet up somewhere during the next tour and all go together, front row center. STAY METAL MY FRIENDS!
[metalgodess] Wednesday, November 23, 2011 3:45:11 PM
Hey HRMG and Acolyte - shucks, you two are bringing tears to my eyes right now! My biggest wish is that they do come back...if they don't, I don't know what I'll do. This was just a taste. I know at some point they have to hang up their gear, but I just truly hope that it ain't anytime soon. I pray that after the tour and a well-deserved break (albeit SHORT!!!!) they hit the studio and start recording again. WHEN (not IF) they tour again - I wish we could all go together. There's nothing like going with other Priest fans who love 'em like we do!!!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by HOT ROCKIN' METAL GODDESS from Wednesday, November 23, 2011 2:56:22 PM)

Anyone who misses this tour is CRAZY!! I absolutely LOVED your review. Reading it brought me back to '86 when I saw them for the first time myself...... trust me, you will have these memories FOREVER!! You and I will be rocking in our rocking chairs when we are 80, smiling, thinking about this tour and still listening to Priest! Next time, I need to take a road trip up to Toronto to see them again with you!! If it hadn't been so close to Thanksgiving here, I would have been there this time dang it! I'm so glad you had such a FANTASTIC time and that Glenn came down and gave you a pick. AWESOME!!

LOLOL, Heimda11! So true. Only drawback is, while the first 2 do help , they then cause their own problems that need a-fixin'. So far music is the only thing that produces no nasty side effects. Unless you throw your back from headbanging too violently. Been there, done that. Martha's just about ready for the rocking chair .

Dear Hellrider:
I am so disappointed, and truly sorry to tell you that I spoke to my cop-acquaintance this afternoon and relayed your story to him. He proceeded to tell me that there was nothing to be done about the situation. Basically, your glove WAS a weapon in their minds and in the rule-books. The fact that they confiscated it without persuing anything meant that apparently, they did YOU a favour - had they written anything up, it would've gone through dispatch, and they could have hauled you downtown under arrest. He said this way they just confiscated the WEAPON, and let you off without you getting in a heap of trouble. I tried to plead your case, but dude had attitude about it...then informed me that the glove was most likely destroyed without filing any paperwork to SAVE you. (??????) That was that...I told him you were just a great guy who liked to represent his metal appreciation in his clothing and style and wouldn't hurt a fly...but it all fell on deaf ears. I was so pissed it wasn't funny. Needless to say, I'm not going to bother calling on him if I ever need help for ANYTHING. But I am going to start carrying around my knitting needles, just to see what happens, since THEY can be seen as WEAPONS also, probably even more dangerous than a spiked glove. So very very sorry, my friend...thought I could help, but struck out big time and now have less faith in the system than I did before. People just suck moose jizz bigtime. Thought he'd have been more understanding or helpful, but dude and his posse appear to have their nuts in a vice of prolific stupidity the likes of which I've never seen or heard. Don't loose the faith though, and don't stop being the awesome metal defender that you are. Again...so so sorry.

You know, it's shit like this that pisses me off....you can just as easily use a rock or a pen or pencil to do major harm to someone. Unbelievable. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by hellrider 31038 from Wednesday, September 07, 2011 6:07:30 PM)

Your welcome, Bud! Helluva album. Been listening quite a few times this past week - Run of the Mill is worth the price of admission.
Hola bonita!
I absolutely LOVED your review. Reading it brought me back to '86 when I saw them for the first time myself...... trust me, you will have these memories FOREVER!! You and I will be rocking in our rocking chairs when we are 80, smiling, thinking about this tour and still listening to Priest! Next time, I need to take a road trip up to Toronto to see them again with you!! If it hadn't been so close to Thanksgiving here, I would have been there this time dang it! I'm so glad you had such a FANTASTIC time and that Glenn came down and gave you a pick. AWESOME!! 
, they then cause their own problems that need a-fixin'. So far music is the only thing that produces no nasty side effects. Unless you throw your back from headbanging too violently. Been there, done that. Martha's just about ready for the rocking chair
