At long last! I will finally get to see Judas Priest live! Priest were one of the first serious Metal bands I got into when they released the ‘British Steel’ album in 1979. I played that sucker to death (still do!) and now finally, they’ve announced an Australian tour with Cavalera Conspiracy as the support! Oh happy days!
The dates:
September 10: Brisbane Entertainment Centre
September 12: Acer Arena, Sydney
September 13: Hisense Arena (formerly Vodafone Arena), Melbourne (see you there!)
September 14: Adelaide Entertainment Centre
September 16: Burswood Dome, Perth
And a week earlier on the 5th, I’m off to see Opeth! Yeah!
Man It’s so exciting, George is getting tickets tomorrow in the pre-sale. My brother back in England was just dogging me about seeing them at The Download festival next week (Donington to the old school) Like you said John O happy days. Freewheel burning my friend \m/
I think I saw ‘Priest 5 times as a teenager. As long as they are Turbo and not Painkiller, it should be pretty fun.
I saw them in 2001 and have been hoping ever since that they would return one day very soon with Rob Halford, well 7 years later they are. I can’t wait, booked my tickets last week on the net!!
