I was fortunate enough to be able to see Judas Priest in concert tonight (11.22.2014), which apparently was the last show they were going to be playing until they left for Australia. I'm going to be completely honest off the bat, I wasn't the biggest fan of Judas Priest prior to hearing the news that I would be able to see them perform live. I did have a good knowledge of what they sang and how they sounded, but was never really a huge fan as most other people are. That did however change within this last week including seeing the show. Prior to seeing this show, I did express excitement to a few friends of mine and told them i'd be seeing them in concert, I heard nothing but good things from what they've heard and from people who have seen them before, all the time saying that they really know how to put on a show, and that was proven tonight from a personal point of view. I want to say that this is probably close to the top of my list of all time favorite concerts that I have seen in my life, and I do feel very fortunate that I have been able to see them perform.



Rob Halford did not sound like age has gotten to him at all. In fact, he sounded better than he does on any of Priest's albums, and that's saying something. Being 63, you wouldn't expect him to still be able to pull off what he has been able to pull off, however he was able to pull off the high notes, the long-lasting notes, and do them with so much passion and energy, it just sounded natural, and it was a fantastic thing to witness.

I'm not really going to get into the opening act "Steel Panther", because...well there's not a lot to say.

Here are some pictures I took of the show:





I did get some videos as well, however they are huge files, and would take forever to upload. I will say though that the live performance of "Breaking The Law" is flawless, as was every other song they performed.
