      Really happy you have this opportunity to travel and see Judas Priest 😊 l've been a fan since 1980's and the concert in Birmingham, in March was just awesome, my son was blown away and l am still on a high. Love Priest & your Channel. Have donated and bless you🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

    The real fans accept that bands change and people change in the band. They still deliver I saw them with Saxon and man Priest ruled sure I miss Glen and KK but Andy and Richie work well and know how to rock

    Dude, I've seen JP over 35 times that I can remember. They have NEVER disappointed... Not even when Ripper was on vocals.
    METAL GODS!! Love that they are still getting it done with authority.

    I saw them on this tour, after last having seen them almost 15 years ago on the British Steel 30th anniversary tour. Richie was incredible on this recent show of course, but I can't deny that there was something special about Glenn and KK up on that stage last time, which was missing.
    Rob still absolutely killed it, though I could see that it's clearly a bit more tiring for him than it used to be. Just makes me appreciate the time we do have with Priest all the more. Ian and Scott were rock solid as always.

    I flew from Portugal with my daughter to see this show not only for Judas Priest but also because it would be my first Saxon concert. I did not realized that you would be there otherwise I would certainly shake your hand an thake a selfie with you. Thank you for your incredible work in your channel and be strong

    Дивлюсь я і думаю
    1. Аж сльози навертаються бо сам ніяк не міг потрапити на їх концерт, так довго чекав. Жодного разу не був. Сподіваюсь одного дня це вдасться. А поки, радуюсь як дитина, з вами, авторе.
    2. Який же Роб Гелфорд крутий не тільки як музикант а і як людина яка проявляє зацікавленість в контакті з представниками України і проявляє бажання допомогти. Це варто подвійного рівня поваги.
    Enjoy it brother 🤘🏻

    I saw the first leg of the show in New Jersey, and you are absolutely correct! Priest looks looser, more invigorated, and like they are just having fun. What a show, great setlist, and Halford sounds phenomenal!

    I'm so happy you got to see them again. I saw them live for the first time last month (I was late on the metal bandwagon), 6th row, center. And holy shit they were incredible. The band sounded so tight, powerful and flawless, Scott Travis' drumming in particular blew me away. And the Metal God sounds better now than he has for the past 15 years at least. People were looking at each other in disbelief at the notes he was hitting, especially on "Sinner", "Devil's Child" and "Victim of Changes". Rob also wasn't relying on the teleprompter as much (probably because it was the 2nd to last show of the US tour and had the lyrics embedded in his head by then), and was moving around the stage quite well. And it was also refreshing to be at a show where the fans were singing along to the new songs too. When most bands play new stuff the audience gives a muted, polite response, like "They tried, now move onto the classics." It's really a testament to how legendary they are and the quality of music they're still producing. Sometimes you can hype something up in your head for so long you'll end up disappointed no matter what. I was dreaming of seeing Priest live for years and when that night finally came they blew all my expectations out of the water, it was a flawless, killer show from start to finish. All hail Priest and the Metal God's blessed vocal chords.

    I first saw them in 1982 with Iron Maiden. I haven't seen them since. I have mad respect for the band and cover some of their material in the metal cover band I'm in. I'm a huge fan of Scott Travis and I think he's added a lot to their sound.

    • @futureidol83
      @futureidol83 6 месяцев назад +2

      God, I hate the phone thing too. I tend to record a couple songs during shows, but I politely hold the phone in front of my own face, usually chin level. I don't hold it above my head to block the view of the person behind me. It's so annoying. I also hate at standing only venues when I get there early to find a good center spot, only for a Shrek sized man or woman with insanely bushy hair to squeeze their way in front of me.
