PIT REPORT Judas Priest 7-22-08

Testament and Judas Priest!
The Priest in full form hitting the USA after their European leg of 2008 Tour.
Not every hit but they have so many there is no way you can hear them all in one night.
KK and Tipton, I do not believe there is a better twin guitar assault in the history of metal. Glenn Tipton is 100 % after his recent illness it looked like Halford was a little under the weather.
But a classic performance I saw them last in '82 Houston, Texas it is incredible they are still brining it full throttle. Met some great foks but I would have to say WAMU security and staff for the most part-SUCK! They did everything but taze a wheel chair guy and his pal out of the place, we were not impressed.

Judas Priest -- Seattle, WA -- July 22th, 2008
Hi All,

First time poster, long time lurker. Priest started their U.S. tour in Seattle tonight...

Two Words: Fucking Epic!
Three Words: Kept European Setlist!
Four Words: Better than Iron Maiden!

I know, I know - that last comment will probably generate some controversy. But hey, I've seen both bands plenty of times going back 20+ years and this gig was the best Priest gig I think I have ever seen (and that's a bold statement). Here's the particulars:

01. Dawn of Creation
02. Prophecy
03. Metal Gods
04. EAT ME ALIVE
05. Between the Hammer & the Anvil
06. Devil's Child
07. Breaking the Law
08. Hell Patrol
09. Death
10. DISSIDENT FUCKING AGGRESSOR
11. Angel
12. The Hellion/Electric Eye
13. Rock Hard, Ride Free
14. SINNER
15. Painkiller
----------------
16. Hell Bent for Leather
17. THE GREEN MANALISHI
18. You've Got Another Thing Coming

A dream setlist to be sure. I'll be interested to see if Priest keeps this whole set on the "Metal Masters" tour. This is a must see show - don't let it pass you by...
