Incredible performance. I love the Live in Anaheim performance too! if you haven't seen that one, check it out. That whole Show just like live insurrection was unbelievable! When Rob is on he's on, and when he is it's monsterous. His name was well earned when they named him the Metal God. Rob! I'm still waiting for my chance to Join you onstage like Bret Kaiser got to at Desperado's in 1991. It would be worth a flight to Mpls. :)
@JohnDoe66669 It was a grow he doesn't usually use this technique but i am sure he wanted to do it now.I think the vocals,guitars,bass and drums were perfect on this gig.
@ThisPerfectKaos I see we have a troll in our midst, and a particularly stupid one at that. Just remember that metal wouldn't be anywhere without priest, and priest wouldn't be anywhere without halford.
You talk shit about Rob Halford and you listen to metalcore which is waaay more gay than rob. Go back to masturbating to your gay metalcore and lamb of shit videos. Priest is not priest without Halford. If you don't like rob halford then stop posting stupid-ass comments and go back to listening to faggots. And just because Iron Maiden and Judas Priest are my two favorite bands because they make actual music, unlike the shit you listen to, doesn't mean that they are the only bands I listen to.
@ThisPerfectKaos Go fuck yourself closed minded asswipe. You don't know shit about metal. Rob Halford and the rest of Judas Priest is the reason why most metal bands exist today. It doesn't matter if he's gay, unless your looking to hook up with him or something, which apparantley you are since you even give a fuck.
@ThisPerfectKaos well, you are really pathetic, you lowlife scum. and in terms of gayness - the ones from deadlock along with some other bands you mentioned on your profile look a lot more gay than rob has ever looked. the music is also pretty crappy, i call it NWoAFMCTPTBA. new wave of assfucking metalcorish crap that pretends to be ambitious.
@ThisPerfectKaos You know that making fun of Rob's homosexuality will bring you a shitload of negative replies. Then does your search for attention make you pathetic? I THINK YES!!!

It's a pitty for KK. These are the last tours and the world must see the PRIEST in their original line up. I'll be there anyhow Athens,Greece, July the 5th.
I like Scott because he is the complete package on old school tech drumming. His hands are as skilled as his feet. I liked Dave, but think Scott is better in every way. But I do think Dave was excellent; his style was curbed as Priest went in a different direction drum wise in the '80's. He was a wizard in the early '70's, so I'm not knocking him.
I was at this concert and Eddie Trunk from That Metal Show was there at the start of the show trying to get the crowd to chant PRIEST PRIEST PRIEST and the crowd was so dead I cant believe they made this dvd in south florida
This album was one of our food groups when I was a teenager.
Played incessantly with the speakers outside our house on our quaint street in Thunder Bay - declaring to the world that 1980 was the year of Heavy Metal.
Very interesting comments regarding Dave Holland/Scott Travis. But let's face it - what we see here is the best possible Priest lineup. So the absolutely classic Priest era is RIGHT NOW! Luckily for us :-)
I think Dave Holland could get into a groove, and fucking out rock everyone. I however, think he was alot more limited then say Les binks, or Scott Travis who are both much more consistent and technical drummers. all three are good, the later two are my preferance though as far as Priest drummers go.
what does someones criminal record have to do with how good a musician he/she is?, courts/juries/judges have been wrong before, its like discussing pro wrestling, talking about the best performers, mention Chris Benoit and some idiot says " he killed his family", why can't some people just look at someone for their talents
I'll agree with that, I think Scott's a pretty awesome drummer, but I just wish he'd take more liberties, do some of the crazy things he clearly can do but never does.
Musically, yes, this kicks ass, but Halford has lost it totally. He can't scream at all anymore and his vocals have seriously degenerated. Maybe in his prime he was the Metal God, but these days he just doesn't have it any longer, and it makes me sad to say this, contrary to what you all may imagine. It grieves me to say so, in fact. I discovered JP in 1983 with "Screaming for Vengeance", so I've got some room to talk, here, I think.
@KamenRiderNecro yea he lost a step or two but i would rather have this than nothing at all but for 60 he still a whole lot better than i could ever dream of being long live the metal gods.
@KamenRiderNecro Mate, sad, but I agree re Halford. Seen them on EVERY UK tour since '77 and until the 90's, he was as good as it gets. His vocal AND physical energies have deteriorated year by year IMO. I actually enjoyed Ripper (and the 2 albums, especially jugulator), his vocals live excellent, his stage presence unfortunately wasn't and he didn't write. Sad to see the band finally split as they were THE metal band that upped the tempo's, innovative with every successive album different!
Respond to this video... How about this, Dave is in prison for rape, and Scott is there current drummer. Enough said. And to all u dave lovers, who created the legendary drum intro to Painkiller, SCOTT TRAVIS!!! Oh and judas priest are metal gods!
It's so unbeliavably weird how Rob is struggling with his final C#5 note in this performance, while he easily pulled off F5's and E5's during his latest performances with his solo band. What's happening?
I've seen Judas Priest 16 times since 1980 when they 1st Headlined in the US and each time they just kicked the living shit out of me.....Both Dave Holland and Scott Travis are the best drummers that the Priest has ever had Both have Two different Styles as well but the one thing you have to look at is NOW.....They're in there 60's and still kicking the shit out of everyone in Metal.....Judas Priest was the 1st and will always be the 1st 1974 to the present day.....(36 years)
@LonnieMark Correction, not all of them are in their 60s. Glenn is...KK is 58. Scott is obviously in his late 40s, not sure about the other two--late 50s I'd assume. But, anyway, you're right about them still kicking all kinds of ass!! Rob sounds amazing, and they're all stil headbanging away! Judas Priest are to metal, as the sun is to light.
@tncl85 Yeah I wasn't sure if they were all in there 60's or not? I knew that Scott Travis wasn't....He's the youngest....I took my Niece to this Show and She's big on Metallica and other Dark Metal like Slayer and when she seen this show with me, She walked out of the Arena and Say's "WOW Uncle Lon.....They Fuckin Rocked".....Pfft!!.....LOL....And she's only 19 and has never seen Judas Priest!!!
As a Priest fan since the mid 80's and listening to all of their albums I can say(IMO) that their best creative and most influential music was the pre Dave Holland days. From Sad Wings of Destiny to Hell Bent for Leather they created metal as we know it. Everything after just solidified their status as the leaders of the genre. Holland kept a steady beat especially on Desert Plains but Travis returned them to their roots with his style.
@MrScottcat No doubt, a down record for Priest is Point of Entry and Turbo but those two records are still better than most bands entire catalogs around at the time.
@Logik426 I think that only Rage and Metal Gods are awesome in todays concert versions. It has a lot of power now. Especially Rage - it obtained a fantastic sound of the rhythm guitar in some concerts, what is defiicent on the 1980 album version - it sounds so poorly there. Now also the Metal Gods have excellent bass and power of the guitar riffs in the live version.
Soon I'll sent my strengthened version of Rapid Fire - the most often listened JP song by me
This is a professional release, and compared to bootleg recordings, it reeks of overdubbing, but I couldn't be bothered to care. What a hell of a rendition of such an overlooked song. Now go watch Steeler.
@PDXCHawk In defense of my own offense, maybe the recording gear is so good on this video that it just SOUNDS like it was overdubbed. Either way, looking forward to Screaming for Vengeance 30th Anniv!
@guitartur He's a fuckin piece of shit pedophile too.-Check out Wikipedia. Even if he wasn't, I still think Scott can drum circles around dave. Compare live versions of Victim of Changes, you'll see what I'm talking about.
@guitartur I think Dave Holland is better with his feet too. Or rather, has a drumming style i like better. Listen to the original studio version, DH is playing the bass drums more dynamically, varying the power of the strokes (in a controlled way, keeping some kind of "sub-beat" within the double bass beat), while this guy is playing more evenly, more "modern powermetal-ish".
(Sorry for crappy explanations, English isn't my first language.)
DH is probably one of my biggest drumming influences.
@guitartur Hate to break it to you, I love Dave Holland also, and agree he is a bit more interesting. However freewheel burning and the rest of Defenders is a drum machine, so you are saying you like the sound of a machine over Scott. Devils child is dave though. Screaming for vengeance is the last studio album with real drums until scott joined. That happened a lot unfortunately. Pyromania from def lep also. Defenders, turbo, ram it down... All Drum Machines. Still love Priest!

@guitartur les binks was they're best drummer as far as technique goes i reckon, this scott travis dude is good, but his drum beats are pretty boring, mostly all just double bass, les binks did double bass, but he did some pretty creative beats instead of just double bass the whole time
Don't see Halford using the mic stand hardly ever. Great rendition!
I don't understand why in pretty much all concert videos of Priest that I watch hear on youtube, I can barely hear K.K.'s guitar when he's doing solos and whatnot.
@BlackSabbath1776: You can barely hear K.K.'s solos? What about Glenn's lead parts then! His guitar tone is so compressed that it's almost impossible to hear what he's playing at times. Downing's lead sound is ten times louder.
I think Downing's lead is higher up in the mix, but his solos are low. Then with Glenn, his lead is low and his solos are high in the mix. Seems like that to me.
Dave Holland could have done a better job on the drums for this song.
Scott Travis is more focused on the tempos, instead of the beats that this music requires. Listen to the original and you will see of what I'm talking about!
@guitartur I'll take Scott Travis any day... Dave Holland is currently in prison for attempted rape of a 17-year-old boy. Unless you think he could do better via satellite from his cell? Dave Holland was nothing more than a session drummer at best. He could keep a beat, basically.
You're all wrong on this one. Holland is a fine drummer but he can't hold Scott's jock strap as far as raw power goes. I've seen JP live with Binks, Holland, and Travis. Travis brings the band to a whole new level, with much more force and presence. I understand that the signature fills that Holland orignally laid down, are proabably his greatest effort. Why should Travis have to ape his every lick?
@Rollo7 I actually agree with all the Holland fans here. Scott is much better technically, has more power etc. But presence, no way. I could make a drum machine sound like him. Holland's sound on British Steel and Point of Entry was really something special, so incredibly organic. But I guess Tom Allom is quite a bit responsible for that sound.
@guitartur For my part, I think Scott is the best drummer Priest has ever had. He seems to add a powerful edge to the songs, and he's really tight with the bass and rhythm.
@guitartur I agree! I think Scott is a fantastic drummer and all that, and you can say a lot of stuff about Dave Holland's "lifestyre" and mistakes here in life of course, but his drumming was fantastic nonetheless.
Dave left Priest in 1989, due to his father just passed away and he was tired of touring, he had gotten a fright for flying over the years for some reason too.
@guitartur I always thought Dave pretty boring. Travis' studio version on the "extra" on demolition blows the British Steel effort away by a country IMO. Still feel Les Binks was technically the best though, problem was when I saw him live I couldn't hear him in the mix! Scott's work on Nostradamus shows he can create/play different grooves and rhythms do you not think? I also thought Dave murdered old classics like beyond the realms of death and Victim, Scott did a better job, again, IMO.

@Logik426 I think that only Rage and Metal Gods are awesome in todays concert versions. It has a lot of power now. Especially Rage - it obtained a fantastic sound of the rhythm guitar in some concerts, what is defiicent on the 1980 album version - it sounds so poorly there. Now also the Metal Gods have excellent bass and power of the guitar riffs in the live version.
Soon I'll sent my strengthened version of Rapid Fire - the most often listened JP song by me

This is a professional release, and compared to bootleg recordings, it reeks of overdubbing, but I couldn't be bothered to care. What a hell of a rendition of such an overlooked song. Now go watch Steeler.

@PDXCHawk In defense of my own offense, maybe the recording gear is so good on this video that it just SOUNDS like it was overdubbed. Either way, looking forward to Screaming for Vengeance 30th Anniv!

Scott's a way better drummer than that hack Dave. Plus Dave's a piece of shit anyway!
SalaminizerVanski 1 year ago
@SalaminizerVanski
He may be better with the double bass thing
But Dave is better with the hands... He is more creative, listen to the drums details on Devil's Child or Freewheel Burning.
Also, I like the solid beat that he does, and the timbre of his drums are amazing.
My opinion...
guitartur 1 year ago 23
@guitartur He's a fuckin piece of shit pedophile too.-Check out Wikipedia. Even if he wasn't, I still think Scott can drum circles around dave. Compare live versions of Victim of Changes, you'll see what I'm talking about.
SalaminizerVanski 1 year ago
@guitartur the timbre you hear is Tom Allom's production from British Steel through Turbo.

@guitartur I think Dave Holland is better with his feet too. Or rather, has a drumming style i like better. Listen to the original studio version, DH is playing the bass drums more dynamically, varying the power of the strokes (in a controlled way, keeping some kind of "sub-beat" within the double bass beat), while this guy is playing more evenly, more "modern powermetal-ish".
(Sorry for crappy explanations, English isn't my first language.)
DH is probably one of my biggest drumming influences.

@guitartur Hate to break it to you, I love Dave Holland also, and agree he is a bit more interesting. However freewheel burning and the rest of Defenders is a drum machine, so you are saying you like the sound of a machine over Scott. Devils child is dave though. Screaming for vengeance is the last studio album with real drums until scott joined. That happened a lot unfortunately. Pyromania from def lep also. Defenders, turbo, ram it down... All Drum Machines. Still love Priest!

@guitartur les binks was they're best drummer as far as technique goes i reckon, this scott travis dude is good, but his drum beats are pretty boring, mostly all just double bass, les binks did double bass, but he did some pretty creative beats instead of just double bass the whole time

Dave Holland's bassdrums are well and better. Also his hi-hats are in the right places. But here, Scott doesn't do the avail with the plates
szymusiek1980 1 year ago
Don't see Halford using the mic stand hardly ever. Great rendition!
I don't understand why in pretty much all concert videos of Priest that I watch hear on youtube, I can barely hear K.K.'s guitar when he's doing solos and whatnot.
BlackSabbath1776 1 year ago
@BlackSabbath1776: You can barely hear K.K.'s solos? What about Glenn's lead parts then! His guitar tone is so compressed that it's almost impossible to hear what he's playing at times. Downing's lead sound is ten times louder.
GoldenRatio2 1 year ago
@GoldenRatio2
I think Downing's lead is higher up in the mix, but his solos are low. Then with Glenn, his lead is low and his solos are high in the mix. Seems like that to me.

Dave Holland could have done a better job on the drums for this song.
Scott Travis is more focused on the tempos, instead of the beats that this music requires. Listen to the original and you will see of what I'm talking about!

@guitartur I'll take Scott Travis any day... Dave Holland is currently in prison for attempted rape of a 17-year-old boy. Unless you think he could do better via satellite from his cell? Dave Holland was nothing more than a session drummer at best. He could keep a beat, basically.

@guitartur
You're all wrong on this one. Holland is a fine drummer but he can't hold Scott's jock strap as far as raw power goes. I've seen JP live with Binks, Holland, and Travis. Travis brings the band to a whole new level, with much more force and presence. I understand that the signature fills that Holland orignally laid down, are proabably his greatest effort. Why should Travis have to ape his every lick?
Rollo7 1 year ago
@Rollo7 I actually agree with all the Holland fans here. Scott is much better technically, has more power etc. But presence, no way. I could make a drum machine sound like him. Holland's sound on British Steel and Point of Entry was really something special, so incredibly organic. But I guess Tom Allom is quite a bit responsible for that sound.
BaptizedinFire 1 year ago
@guitartur For my part, I think Scott is the best drummer Priest has ever had. He seems to add a powerful edge to the songs, and he's really tight with the bass and rhythm.
Arc333Angel 1 year ago
@guitartur I agree! I think Scott is a fantastic drummer and all that, and you can say a lot of stuff about Dave Holland's "lifestyre" and mistakes here in life of course, but his drumming was fantastic nonetheless.
Dave left Priest in 1989, due to his father just passed away and he was tired of touring, he had gotten a fright for flying over the years for some reason too.

@guitartur I always thought Dave pretty boring. Travis' studio version on the "extra" on demolition blows the British Steel effort away by a country IMO. Still feel Les Binks was technically the best though, problem was when I saw him live I couldn't hear him in the mix! Scott's work on Nostradamus shows he can create/play different grooves and rhythms do you not think? I also thought Dave murdered old classics like beyond the realms of death and Victim, Scott did a better job, again, IMO.
