I think Ritchie has done an AWESOME job filling for KK. And honestly, he's given Priest a bit of youthful energy onstage, which they needed. He's clearly enjoying himself, playing the solos faithfully, and interacting with the crowd. Can't ask for more than that. Of course I'd prefer that KK were still in the band, but Ritchie is nailing it.
this is why i love judas priest , most bands of those old days have changed their style of music and clothing , judas remains the same and keep playing high quality heavy metal which nowadays shitty kids metal bands aren't able to play , they are JUDAS PRIEST and this is what is all about !!! playing heavy metal !!!
You cant compare modern metal with classic metal, its like compare apples and bananas. It is true, that bands from these days cant play the classic heavy metal from the past times. Both styles are an art by it self and both are good. But the classic heavy metal is the best at the end. :)
I love watching Richie Faulkner perform. Been a Priest fan since about 81, and saw them back in the 80's. Yeah It's no longer KK and I wasn't sure how I would feel about that, much like when Janick Gerz joined Maiden but they found an incredible musician in Faulkner and a hype man as well. Look at the guys energy! And who gives a F___ what Halford does behind closed doors! THE GREATEST FRONTMAN/VOCALIST OF ALL TIME!
"Desolisating" Rob ACTUALLY INVENTED A NEW WORD for this song. That's all you need to know about how badass this is. This is a song that helped launch the thrash genre. Pure adrenaline.
Fantastic performance of this immortal, pure-metal track. it is always sentimental to comeback in time and see the first tour they have done with Richie, the successor of Judas Priest legacy. Glenn in perfect shape here. Rob I want that jacket please :-)
Buying this DVD tomorrow. I have a feeling it'll be up there as one of my favorite concert films of all time. Along with Rush's Time Machine tour, Alice Cooper's The Nightmare Returns, AC/DC Live at Donington, and Maiden's En Vivo
remember the scene in Caligula where people get their heads cut off by a gigantic wall with blades attached to it. Speed that up about 100 times & make that wall 100 miles wide = Rapid Fire..... man this kicks ass still.
Como suena esto y yo era un niño y escuchas ahora su último trabajo , han pasado mucho años y siguen pegando fuerte, parece que para ellos no pasan los años. Gracias amigos por toda una vida de buena , buena , buena música. Para mí absolutamente los REYES del HEAVY METAL se llevan el primer puesto 👑👑👑🌏🌎🌍🌍😊
Be as it may, there's nothing that could be done about K.K. leaving the band. I miss his presence as much as the next Priest fan, but I think Faulkner does a pretty admirable job in his stead. He seems to fit in nicely with the band as far as stage presence and playing style. A part of the band did leave when K.K. left, but I say give the newcomer a chance just like the older fans did with Tim "Ripper" Owens. Also, why all the comments about Rob being gay? Metal is about the music, so lets not worry about Rob's orientation. Priest is amazing regardless. Long live the Metal Gods! \m/
I wholeheartedly agree with everything to said. Music is music and metal is metal. And I absolutely love Richie Faulkner. He has outstanding stage presence, and a real appreciation of his craft, which he's damn good at. He's also a real decent guy.
Exactly who cares if Rob likes men. It's all about his vocals. He rocks. If anything I admire that he wasn't afraid of his legacy maybe getting destroyed. A lot of people stay in the closet and act fake. He's a true dude and this is coming from a Heterosexual person. God Bless Rob. Keep Rockin
Ritchie don't deserve to be in Priest. He didn't earn it. Period. He just got lucky. And really, imo; he's just an average guitarist. He got lucky that his looks resemble KK. But he will NEVER BE KK. And Priest will NEVER be "pure" ever again. And now with Glenn being gone- forget about it. Oh, the music is average. Nothing holds up to the classic tracks from the 70,s and 80,s. And also, there ain't no room for homosexuality in Metal. The same way there ain't no crying in baseball. I personally can't (And don't want too) tolerate it. Priest is done and over with. They should retire and stop misrepresenting themselves. Presently, they're doing a disservice to the fans that made them famous. Very disrespectful.
Fan du "Priest" depuis plus de 35 ans j'ai vu la tournée "Epitaph" 3 fois et j'espère revoir le "Priest" en live à l'occasion de la sortie de leur ultime album studio. JUDAS-PRIEST pour toujours...
Sorry Sabs, Priest are the original Brummie Bashers. Forty years together and Rob still has the best set of pipes in the biz! Thanks to Richie for more than ably stepping in when K. K. got tired of it all. If anyone asks you, "What is heavy metal?", tell them to watch this vid. I'm fifty five, been going to shows for almost forty of them, and a proud concert punk! Judas fucking Priest-hellyeah:-)
and the metal gods decided heavy metal will rule forever in epitaph tour. July 10th,2011 is the date I would never ever forget. I was the happiest person on earth because I was just in front of the metal gods in istanbul show. epitaph tour is the best ever...greetings from istanbul.
![METALLICA + ROB HALFORD - RAPID FIRE - 30 ANNIVERSARY [MULTICAM MIX] - AUDIO [LM] - FILLMORE](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/yFonJWErOEA/mqdefault.jpg)
One of the best songs in History of Heavy Metal!
I agree - one of my all-time faves for sure!
Simply the epitome of HEAVY METAL!
OWWW FUCK YEAH !!!👍🏻
Yeah it’s like a limp dick! Ya just can’t beat it!! Lol
I'm 57. Seen em like 5x. When you add it all up best heavy metal band ever. Ozzy a close second.
Rob Halford,the best voice and the best jacket on the world
I wonder how much that jacket weighs, leather itself is somewhat heavy + all that metal on it.
War When metal is on your veins... it does´t matter :)
+War he doesnt wear the leather long coat anymore. It was 60 pounds. thats a lightweight fabric . it still weighs 25 pounds.
I was at this gig, it was absolutely mind blowing. No one performs better than The Priest live, Halford is the best vocalist ever!!!!
I think Ritchie has done an AWESOME job filling for KK.
And honestly, he's given Priest a bit of youthful energy onstage, which they needed. He's clearly enjoying himself, playing the solos faithfully, and interacting with the crowd. Can't ask for more than that.
Of course I'd prefer that KK were still in the band, but Ritchie is nailing it.
A lot of JP fans don't know it but Mr Ian Hill has been pounding the bass for JP since 1968, that is a long time
He is the only original member left....
Ian Hill is the TRUE metal god!
Ian hill is the best bass metal
Самый скромный и незаметный.
We all know 😂
This not Rapid fire, it's just fire
there are celebrities, idols... but this is how the legends sound...
saiu uma pesquisa quem ouve heavy metal é mais feliz
Rapid fire, Birmingham metal at its best, awesome track.
2024......
Never old
The greatest metal band on the planet.
This song defines all that heavy metal is! Fifty years with the Priest! Rock on metal maniacs!
This IS Heavy Metal! Love that Richie Faulkner!
this is why i love judas priest , most bands of those old days have changed their style of music and clothing , judas remains the same and keep playing high quality heavy metal which nowadays shitty kids metal bands aren't able to play , they are JUDAS PRIEST and this is what is all about !!! playing heavy metal !!!
+MetalThunderForce Sabbath and Motorhead still have it, well (had it) for Motorhead.
Sabbath now too
And UFO.
nowadays ? haha you dont know much about modern metal, i can say that confidently your comment is so naive and closed minded
You cant compare modern metal with classic metal, its like compare apples and bananas. It is true, that bands from these days cant play the classic heavy metal from the past times. Both styles are an art by it self and both are good. But the classic heavy metal is the best at the end. :)
If you asked me how long as Ritchie being in the band, I wouldn't have guessed over 11 years. Still kicking it.
This is real metal, much much better than all these metal core bands
Scott Travis' drums always sound tight AF baby!
I like his adding of Double bass.. It makes the part heavier
David Topchiev I feel like it made this bands performance stronger and gave a new life. Neck he is than responsible for putting the pain in painkiller
Masters of heavy metal, judas priest the best band , going missed you when end😢
Definitely the best opening song for priest.
Priest rules man. Faulkner really brought back an energy.
I love watching Richie Faulkner perform. Been a Priest fan since about 81, and saw them back in the 80's. Yeah It's no longer KK and I wasn't sure how I would feel about that, much like when Janick Gerz joined Maiden but they found an incredible musician in Faulkner and a hype man as well.

Ritchie is an extraordinary talent. He saved Judas Priest.
@@efriamantoniogarza9388 Truer words have probably never been spoken publicly
Best song for a intro of all time so far
Isn't this from the Epitaph Tour - their so-called farewell tour? Thank goodness they continued. All hail.
The best band ever made the best DVD ever!
HOLY CRAP BATMAN !!! Now that's how you make an entrance !
Insane!
😂😂😂
I'd love this played when I enter a room.
Como puede haber gente que no les guste esto.
For all the drummers out there.... the ultimate dugga-dugga double bass song.
Sounds better live than the original IMO
Judas Priest will forever rule over Heavy Metal.
I was there!! Hands down best gig of my life \m/
Early speed metal classic.
"Desolisating"
Rob ACTUALLY INVENTED A NEW WORD for this song. That's all you need to know about how badass this is.
This is a song that helped launch the thrash genre. Pure adrenaline.
Heavy Metal at its best!!!
Pure heavy metal
The song is absolutely beastly
These guys have been going strong since the 70's.. It's amazing how they still stay relevant!
C'est clair !!!!!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
When that curtain fell in Hammersmith, my life was changed.
thunderous drumming there!!!
Judas Priest is my favorite metal band that i hear and enjoy since 1982
Godfather of metal........
I saw Priest a couple years ago. F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C concert! Really hope they tour again soon!
They will in 2018, to promote the album they're working on now.
Great to see the old bones still rumbling around....still awesome
I try to remember how many bands played 40 years of only good music. Can you remember anyone? only the Metal Gods
Wish Judas priest come to Puerto Rico we Metalheads deserve a awesome concert of high caliber
I think this is my favorite Judas Priest song! \m/
same
Same
At the Fight concert, Anthrax played this song.
Agreed 🤘
The drummer is kicking SO much ass!!!!
I love this band. Always awakens the best feelings in me. Judas forever!!
oh mama that riff....bone chilling!!!
Fantastic performance of this immortal, pure-metal track. it is always sentimental to comeback in time and see the first tour they have done with Richie, the successor of Judas Priest legacy. Glenn in perfect shape here. Rob I want that jacket please :-)
He sounds as good as ever to me
Rob singlehandedly saved the studs on leather industry
One of the BEST METAL Albums EVER..
judas priest се подиграват с останалите групи това е те са наи великите
Buying this DVD tomorrow. I have a feeling it'll be up there as one of my favorite concert films of all time. Along with Rush's Time Machine tour, Alice Cooper's The Nightmare Returns, AC/DC Live at Donington, and Maiden's En Vivo
Heavy Metal in it's purest form!
Formidable!!!!!!
5 July 2011 Athens Greece. Best Metal Show EVER!!!!!!!!
Godfathers of metal and masters of live mega wattage
no importa la edad!! El Rock lo llevan en el alma!! en las venas!! en la sangre!! \m/,
A band that is from the 70s and has been rocking the shit out since! METALGODZ! HAIL JUDAS PRIEST!!!!! F.O.A.D vevo...
A metal band that has been putting out studio albums since 1974 has no business sounding this good in 2012.
The power of Judas !!!
Kneel down before the metal gods !!!
remember the scene in Caligula where people get their heads cut off by a gigantic wall with blades attached to it. Speed that up about 100 times & make that wall 100 miles wide = Rapid Fire..... man this kicks ass still.

Any of you guys old enough to remember Rob riding his Harley out onto the stage? I saw him do it live... Rock Fricken Gods!
Love how Glenn just looks happy as a clam at the end
Judas priest es una de mis bandas favoritas y es la mejor de su generacion en su genero
Best album they ever did
They still Metal GODS !!!!
Saw this tour in Thessaloniki, Greece 6 July 2011!
SENSACIONAL!
wonder how he delivers such power vocals though he is close to 70.....Live is better than the original...

British Steel Vengence Defenders

This is just quality music! its a live perfomance and ever tone is exact, also rhythm and every solo..
Also it's fucking awesome!
So simple yet so effective.
Fan du "Priest" depuis plus de 35 ans j'ai vu la tournée "Epitaph" 3 fois et j'espère revoir le "Priest" en live à l'occasion de la sortie de leur ultime album studio.
JUDAS-PRIEST pour toujours...
A real powerful rocker, a great opener!
I bow.
I wish they had the full concert in one video
Drummer is best of the best.
My first ever JP concert was while Epitaph Tour ..Fribourg Switzerland .. I’ll Never forget it!! Was a Pure Fire!! What a performance 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Priest sounds just as good as when I saw them for the first time in NYC at Palladium back in 1981.
Good ages heavy metal in the Air forever
Sorry Sabs, Priest are the original Brummie Bashers. Forty years together and Rob still has the best set of pipes in the biz! Thanks to Richie for more than ably stepping in when K. K. got tired of it all. If anyone asks you, "What is heavy metal?", tell them to watch this vid. I'm fifty five, been going to shows for almost forty of them, and a proud concert punk! Judas fucking Priest-hellyeah:-)
Kereeeen!!!
Absolutely killer opener! Takes your breath away. Judas F#@%in' Priest!!
