LOVE BITES  is the other song they didn't play. They could have not done the sing along whoa whoa whoa and played Love Bites. Rob seemed unhappy about being rushed through the set. 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!!
