Not like in the old days, but still today one of the greatest frontman and singers. An seeing it from a perspective of all his carrier and metal history, in my opinion, the best vocalist of all time !
It’s doesn’t show how good ST and DH are/were. Both drummers can pull off much more complex drumming than this. I agree with another comment, this sadly shows how bad Lars has become.
All these people talking about Lars having gotten 'bad' : IDK ; this sounds decent to me. As far as his killer drumming is concerned, his furious double-bass assault on 'Fight Fire With Fire' never ceases to amaze me. He still kicks ass, IMO. @CharlieWielowski
The rendition of this is mind blowing! There's multiple reasons for that. You've got two amazing entities coming together with Metallica and Halford. On top of that, when Rob and James sing together, it's amazingly demonic! They need to collaborate some vocals together pronto! I can't be the only one that feels this way?
Well, I guess that this was before Rob had his hernia surgery. That's why he's having his walking stick. Just look at Judas Priest's new gigs, no walking stick and Rob is walking like he used to in his best days. He still have energy and passion inside. Thanx God.
It's sad that he carries a cane. I know of nobody else in metal history that is so respected as Rob Halford. He's a gay man, and many in the metal community might call kinda frown on that fact, they won't call him "fag!!" They respect this man, as i do, and so many the world over do! Even after Judas Priest is no more, he says he will continue with Halford. He also said he wants to do some black metal stuff someday. Can you imagine? Rob doing a black metal album? WOW!
no latrs doesn't suck man ur a follower man not a leader stand up and say lars doesn't suck and fuck all the people who think ars sucks he's a great drummer he is brash, but who cares except for the haters great job lars,kirk,james,robert,and rob halford ty man
John Smith You probably know by now but during 2012-2013 Rob was having major issues with his back and was pretty much in constant pain for a long time ( I believe he suffered from herniated discs) . He had corrective surgery to repair it and no longer requires the cane and has said he feels good as new. Funny thing......an interview I read about it he stated this very show was the trigger for him to seek out finally having it surgically repaired
rob!! i fucking love you!! everybody can say i'm gay, but i'm not!! i'm just love his music! his voice! his personality!!! good lord!! halford is the REAL GOD!!! Pd:if Metallica did a cd with halford, q would be best could do throughout his career bitch!
Dear god, since when is the whole RUclips community (haha.. community..) dedicated to bashing Lars? Don't get me wrong, it isn't a great drummer and he's getting lazier by the year, but come on.. then just watch the old damn video's (or none at all) if you don't like current day Metallica.
James please don’t sing with the Metal God, just play your rythm guitar and be thankful your on stage with a pioneer of heavy metal and a one of a kind singer in the genre, back vocals do the song nothing
Only Halford could make a cane this badass.
Great version Rob still sounds awesome!!!
Not like in the old days, but still today one of the greatest frontman and singers. An seeing it from a perspective of all his carrier and metal history, in my opinion, the best vocalist of all time !
you could tell he was in a bit of pain here yet still killed it..
Metal God!
The Teacher!
Forever in my heart!
Great classic Priest track. Ulrich is trying like hell but can't quite pull it off. Shows you how good Scott Travis is and Dave Holland was.
S2Kjeffrey totally agreed this is one of many where Holland really nailed it!
There are other songs with FAR more complicated drumming. This doesn't really show how good they were, it shows how bad lars has become lol
It’s doesn’t show how good ST and DH are/were. Both drummers can pull off much more complex drumming than this.
I agree with another comment, this sadly shows how bad Lars has become.
headbanging to Rapid Fire on stage with a cane like a motherfuckin boss
Rob & Judas Priest gave me all "Heavy Metal" I need in 33 years!!! \m/
0:58 lars is like, "yeah its too fast i might not make it" but he fucking did great
He looks like he's about to explode haha. Love the guy though
Nice to see someone respecting Lars' effort! Lars created Metallica 42 years ago in October, 1981. It's like people don't acknowledge that
All these people talking about Lars having gotten 'bad' : IDK ; this sounds decent to me. As far as his killer drumming is concerned, his furious double-bass assault on 'Fight Fire With Fire' never ceases to amaze me. He still kicks ass, IMO. @CharlieWielowski
METAL GODS!!!....2nd to none!!
Con panza y baston aun asi sebe jenial esa voz es la mejor y con su actitud de yo soy el jefe 🤗💪puro poder
ROB CAN STILL ROCK IT AT HIS AGE!!! \m/ \m:
great performance from mr. halford
The rendition of this is mind blowing! There's multiple reasons for that. You've got two amazing entities coming together with Metallica and Halford. On top of that, when Rob and James sing together, it's amazingly demonic! They need to collaborate some vocals together pronto! I can't be the only one that feels this way?
You cant say that that would be one of the Best bands ever if it were real
If my friends ever say there isn't enough metal, I send them this video.
awesome...masters !
Metal God, enough said!
HE IS!!!!!
The Metal God with The Four Horsemen 🤘
I was waiting for that collaboration to be a train wreck... but it's actually pretty good :)
Great performance by Grandad Simpson!
excellent
Rob may be old but his voice is second 2 none
Second to noooooooooooooooone
REALLY FUCKIN´ AND ROCIN´ AWESOME
Grande Halford!
very good
Outstanding version. Well done boys!
Happy Birthday Rob...
Rob Halford is a trooper, the real motherfucking deal. Hail Rob Halford!
Kirk is beast!!
Well, I guess that this was before Rob had his hernia surgery. That's why he's having his walking stick. Just look at Judas Priest's new gigs, no walking stick and Rob is walking like he used to in his best days. He still have energy and passion inside. Thanx God.
I think it was "Back Surgery"
Thanks.
metallica is back, what metallica is THAT
love halford.
Now thats a kik ass jam, better than anything Metallica could ever wish to put out.
WAAAAAAHHHHH
actually Rob is theeee numero uno, Dio comes next
yeaaaaaahhhhh
Motherfucker's gotta cane!!
Rob is so awesome! :D
priest songs are really hard to play. Like, no joke
Maybe these days. Metallica were untouchable in the '80s though.
Ripper Owen kicked killed it
The only good thing about this performance is Rob. The crowd is just weak, Lars is a flounder ( 3:40 - 3:55)... At least Rob T. is keeping up
He looks much older than he did just a year ago on the Epitaph tour. That's kinda sad.
I think he said it was just wear and tear on the hip joint from years on the road.
It's sad that he carries a cane. I know of nobody else in metal history that is so respected as Rob Halford. He's a gay man, and many in the metal community might call kinda frown on that fact, they won't call him "fag!!" They respect this man, as i do, and so many the world over do! Even after Judas Priest is no more, he says he will continue with Halford. He also said he wants to do some black metal stuff someday. Can you imagine? Rob doing a black metal album? WOW!
What did Rob say in the beginning? Being german I didn`t copy.
Lars is struggling
James took a riff from this song for Motorbreath
He visto públicos malos, pésimos y después está este
O sea tu
He said he feels like a spare prick at a wedding.
no latrs doesn't suck man ur a follower man not a leader stand up and say lars doesn't suck and fuck all the people who think ars sucks he's a great drummer he is brash, but who cares except for the haters great job lars,kirk,james,robert,and rob halford ty man
Cane or no cane metallica guys looked older than rob and will spend the rest of their lives trying to match up good luck
and mr.i don't practice drums anymore,i only want tpo make more money!...behind the drums!!!!!
LOL! Lars is dying back there. He could barely keep up. I think he needed oxygen & lessons after the show. Sad!!
:D
damn why the hell was he using a cane even when leaving the stage? hope he´s doing great ....
It's not his cane, it's his pimping stick
That HATE amp is still working lml
What happened to Rob? Is it just his age getting older? Cane :-/
John Smith
You probably know by now but during 2012-2013 Rob was having major issues with his back and was pretty much in constant pain for a long time ( I believe he suffered from herniated discs) . He had corrective surgery to repair it and no longer requires the cane and has said he feels good as new.
Funny thing......an interview I read about it he stated this very show was the trigger for him to seek out finally having it surgically repaired
haha You saw that too but then again, he's on stage with the metal god so I wouldn't doubt he's having a fap.
Now go play Judas Priest
Live doing this song and it absolutely destroys this, better drums,
Better guitars, better bass,
Look it up
Hahaha look at the 80s rockstar head look on lars!
Lars is out of phase. 😀
Look those kids playing with the priest...
He's 61
Lars gets a workout
bruh what is lars doing
/watch?v=KemoHBBTdPc
what what what !?
look at halford cane and gay and nobody cares he rock out with the best
Damn. Kerry King lost weight.
Dug this cover w/ Halford
Lars is suffering there
rob!! i fucking love you!!
everybody can say i'm gay, but i'm not!!
i'm just love his music! his voice! his personality!!!
good lord!! halford is the REAL GOD!!!
Pd:if Metallica did a cd with halford, q would be best could do throughout his career bitch!
Dear god, since when is the whole RUclips community (haha.. community..) dedicated to bashing Lars? Don't get me wrong, it isn't a great drummer and he's getting lazier by the year, but come on.. then just watch the old damn video's (or none at all) if you don't like current day Metallica.
Damn Rob's getting old
Rob Halford looks like a grandpa!!!
And still - he can beat shit out of you any time he want to. :)
i hate it when james joins in with the vocals. he did it with king diamond too. kinda ruins it for me.
I think sounded good and brutal
halford is great lars sucks but all in al sounded great
He's also 12 years older than Lars and even using a cane appears to be in better shape than that Danish girl
Metallica was amazing back in the old days. Undeniably. But these days their lazy and meh...
he has a broken leg, stop say he got aids...
James please don’t sing with the Metal God, just play your rythm guitar and be thankful your on stage with a pioneer of heavy metal and a one of a kind singer in the genre, back vocals do the song nothing
Instrumentally not even close to Priest.
that crowd sucks
Underwhelming
Metallica sucks . PRIEST PRIEST 🤟
Who is the chubby little bald kid on the drums? Musr be a thrill for the little guy to play with a band.
