I'm not sure if all festivals cut the headliners set short or not. I think that is bullshit myself. 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. Korn kept playing and playing and I thought, If you go over and Priest has to play an even shorter set, I will HUNT YOU DOWN!!!  It was really great to see so many people there to see 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!

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!

He missed the $20 bandana and the fact that the shirts were two distinct colors: white with the JP name and red.

| 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. |

That friggin' GPS... 
You know what, though? I did a picture of that bridge shortly after you drove off, so your car MIGHT be in the shot. Should look closely.
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.

But yes, as one who had joined the "posse" at the Louder than Life festival, I can also confirm that JP played a really great show (and that it was COLD AS FUCK!!! As a thin-skinned Californian, it was unbearable). I wished that it could go on, but alas, the festival staff was dead set on finishing the day on time. Kept many of us from getting the half-dozen or so guitar picks on the floor. Highlights for me this set (and first festival, I might add) include Halls of Valhalla (freakin' great!!!), Victim of Changes and Dragonaut. Heck, just Rob's singing and Richie's solo in YGATC were incredible displays of power and talent. Although I think the biggest and best part was getting to spend the weekend with some really great 'Priest fans and really aweome people. Best mini-vacation I had ever taken. Could never have asked for anything better (aside from a longer set from JP, though... and no more Korn...heh).
Here, a pic of the band in action. <---- Vail = dunce for forgetting her good camera at the hotel.

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).

Agreed about Rob (the band was freakin' out of this world as always) and glad to hear you made it back safe and sound. Next? DETROIT!!!! 
Hope to hear from others in the group. 'Twas an honor as always to be with y'all !

@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?????

For the amount of "SHIT" I gave this band ....
(claiming Saxon the new Heavy Metal kings while Priest took a break and did Nostradamus)

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.

Right so here's my Redeemer of Souls review.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this album. Standout tracks for me are Sword of Damocles, Cold Blooded and Crossfire. As I've said before, Crossfire as a definite Rocka Rolla vibe, and Cold Blooded reeked of 80s era Priest. Halls of Valhalla is rip snorter of a metal tune too.
Least favourite tracks - ROS, March of the Damned. Not terrible songs, but just missing something in my opinion.
Overall, I give this album a 7.5/10 at first full listen through, that may change lol. A bloody good effort for a bunch of old metal legends!

I'm sure they will put a bunch of Canadian dates on the second leg since they are hardly playing Canada on the first leg. Of course, it all depends on the promoters and how well the first leg of the tour goes. Keeping my fingers crossed for you and all my Canadian friends!

Maaaaan, what luck!!
Still, though. If JP ends up not making it to NZ again (Cheez-its forbid), at least you will have seen 'em in Australia.

Well, after booking our trip to Brisbane, Australia to see Judas Priest play at the Soundwave festival, it got announced this morning that they are playing here in NZ for the first time at the Westfest festival about 3 days after we see them in Brisbane! Our budget doesn't quite stretch to include that show as well (it's a 7 hour drive to Auckland from where we are, or a not particularly cheap flight) but it's so awesome they're making it to our shores. |

acolytee55, I think that they WILL add Canada dates...this album is too good not to.
I think if the longer they hold out the more tickets they sell...fans worry( for good reason) that they will not be playing thier home town... flying in fans from all over to shows ....its all $ ect... but thats understanding ....
Richie said talking to Glenn "what you gonna do now just sit at home and read a magazine?"
They said fuck it...we are touring! But although its still not a world tour...I think Canada is too important to skip...they know thier long time fans harken throughout this vast Country so hang tight and they should announce a date...
But makes you wonder if the dates they may set would be farther to travel than Seattle....we will see

@ JD @HEADBANGER That is an awesome story lol , we will see if they announce a canadian date, what has my attention right now is we are on the eve of the vote of Scottish Independence, as an emigree from Scotland , it is easy for me to say vote yes for seperating as i do not live there , but my feelings are this ...... dont be the only country to ever vote no for freedom and the right to control your own destinies and self governance, yes its scary but the rewards are worth it, SAOR ALBA !!!!
