BillyBob Hammer The problem is when technology got cheaper to produce. Nowadays you just need to know what to buy. In recorded music, the usual problem is no dynamics because people think compression is actually a good thing. Even with modern releases, depending on what you get, the vinyl versions haven't been touched with that modern nonsense. But that's the fault of the people that think compression is actually a good thing, the same audio could have been put on cd but they don't want it that way. :/ I believe koolaidman9922 said this is good quality for 1983 compared to less professional live videos from this time. I'd love for Metallica shows from this year to be recorded like this.
So glad I was going to concerts back then. Besides all the scrappy 80s music, we had the best Heavy Metal concerts...Maiden, Priest, Saxon, Metallica , Ozzy, Dio,Motoelrhead all in their prime...Best time to be alive
It was the best time. Saw Priest twice , point of Entry, British steel tours, Scorpions Blackout, MSG, Motörhead Overkill tour, back when you could get down the front of the stage and almost touch their feet and you could hear the amps on stage. Not looking at screens and getting blasted by sub bass and kick drums like nowadays.
My very first concert here 16, nov 23 1982 Phx, Az. Is why I'm 80's fan for life. Absolutely best era of music. Kks new band also rips! At 71-72 yrs old! A beast!

@@mustaine0345 Hey! I'm happy that Japan and America are now allies. My Dad was a WWII Soldier and fought in New Guinea and many Islands, he lived 55 years 10 days with shrapnel in him from a Japanese grenade. Through the years I've come to admire Japan ...from what I've seen it looks like a really beautiful country and I think you're women are beautiful! I can't read what you wrote my translator is down now ...I'll check ✔️ in later... You take care over there, I'm a stone artisan and enjoy making koi fish mosaics. ✌️
I was 17 years old when this was shot and I was hanging onto the rail at the front of the stage. The day was a total roaster...with the only shade on that field being at the front of the stage (under the lighting gantry) or in the shadow of the control booth off in the distance. The air hung heavy with the smell of dust, heat, suntan oil and pot. I had forgotten just how good some of the bands that played this show sounded live...and how vivid everything was. We all knew that Rob was gay back then, even though he wasn't "out". It didn't matter. He kicked ass then and kicks ass now. Thanks for posting this! It's an awesome memory that came flooding back in while watching it!
Everyone knew and knows and yet the most macho metal guys ever took their style cues from a leather daddy who would walk on stage with a black bullwhip in his mouth. He transcends. He's God and GOAT all wrapped into one.
@@jerald4992 Rob is the gayest thing in Metal, and not only it doesn't matter - on the opposite, it helps blasting the useless over affected macho feel some metal stuff delivers - as it actually added strong identity to metal in general. Worth saying, the look based on black leather and metal Judas introduced to our universe, actually was Rob's idea, borrowing not less than "sadomaso" clothes from a sex shop, and having the band dressed with it in order to generate part of the agressive look and style of the genre - something later used by most extreme bands, like Destruction, Sarcofago, Slayer, and ALL the Black Metal scene. Amazing to think all that came from Halford's orientation.
I saw JP in Vancouver 1979, Seattle 1981 and Toronto in October 1982. Absolute heavy metal brilliance, they and Van Halen were the two best bands in the world in the early '80's. Yes that's Dave Holland on drums here.
anybody else go this show? what a day, huh? god, i miss those many great rock shows at irvine meadows, the forum, long beach, etc...life was good in so cal back in the day for rock concerts...from 1982 thru 1995 i must have gone to 100+ shows!
This was recorded in 1983.! I believe that I was there? I can't find out if it was recorded in the San Bernardino mountains?? It sure looks like it! It was the US festival in 1983. Called Woodstock West! I was there!!!! 3 days! I just can't remember if the Priest was there? And, this video Rocks Metal!!!! The Priests Rocks!!!!!!👍♥️🎼✌️😀🎉.......
Yeah, So. Cal Ricked and Rolled in those years!!!! I lived there from 78-86... I tell folks it wasn't somewhere I lived in my life ,.jt was a lifetime!!!!! Southern California Ricked in thise days!!! I miss it often 🎉😮😢😂😂😂 memories....
Yeah USCI...I saw a couple shiws there. Early eightues...INLY time I took a Limo to a show. Fiur if us ...Don Henley and Santana I believe??? But yeah the Meadows...great place to see an outdoor show!!!!👍✌️♥️🎼🎶🎶🤗😊🎉
I was there on this Sunday only. Lived in Highland CA at the time. About 13 miles away from Devore, where this all happened. I was 19 years old, They opened with Hellion / Electric eye and then right into riding on the wind and Heading out to the Highway so this isn’t exactly the full set. But thanks for posting . Order of appearance was Quiet Riot, Motley Crue, Ozzy(first show with Jake) Judas Priest, Triumph, Scorpions and Van Halen. 20 bucks per ticket. Still have two T-shirts and my ticket stub. They eventually built a concert venue on the same spot that opened under the name Blockbuster Pavilion (as in the video rental store) I saw many shows there including Ozzfests, one with Ozzy and another with Sabbath until I left CA in 2005. Good times.
Grew up in Chicago started seeing Judas Priest in 1976 sad wings of Destiny tour all the way through now currently I live in the city of Angels beautiful California going to see them in Chicago on May 1 at the Rosemont theater, invincible shield tour and going to Kalamazoo Michigan on May 4 to see them as well. Long live Judas Priest, my friend. Oh yeah, the worlds greatest metal band ever yes oh yeah.
Judas Priest always sound great live. I've seen them over the last four decades and they don't disappoint. Was at this show too and man was it hot that Memorial Day weekend over thirty years ago.
I goota know brother! Was this recorded at the US Festival in San Bernardino...if so I was therf for that 3 day,Woodstock West.😊 But, was the Priest there? And, was this that recording???😊🎉👍✌️♥️🎼🎶🎵
Sounds and musicians from late 60's through mid 80's will never be outdone. So much talent on the road full time - man did they ever learn their chops! And the cream just kept rising. Keep trying youngsters the bar has been set VERY high!

Yo tengo 45 años y nunca pude ver a JUDAS en vivo.... si tuviste la suerte de verlos en 1984 te envidio sanamente 😂😂...sigue llendo a verlos todas las veces que puedas porque quizas ahora no te des cuenta...pero estas viendo una de las MEJORES BANDAS DE HEAVY METAL DE LA HISTORIA
Not only Priest in Dortmund Westfalen Hallen. . . Seen them all at that festival. We drove there up from Holland and God only knows how We found our Way Back. Did See DIO in Utrecht that same week. Life was GOOD. . Still is 😊
I was at this concert at Glen Helen park in San Berdo.... Priest was incredible, but I thought the Scorpions absolutely killed it. That being said, was the best Cali concert I had ever seen... and I saw Deep Purple on their Perfect Stranger Reunion tour in Long Beach...
A great performance, Rob Alford and the whole band at their peak right here is right. Oh my God just moved to LA in 1983 for that one you better believe it Judas Priest forever invincible shield tour 2024. Heading to Chicago May 1 to see him at Rosemont theater and then going to Kalamazoo Michigan to see the May 4 event swing center…✔️😎
Well, that was way back in fkng 1983. Up to now I am still waiting for any other people/bands to bring around such sort of music, feelings, power and dedication! Now it's up to you each individual, after 40 years, to BREAK the ....
This is the most insane shit I've ever read. Literally any of his contemporaries are better. This is such mediocre metal that does not stand the test of time.
He's one of the top five for sure, but greatest? Come on. You didn't hear Dio or Bruce Dickinson not staying in tune. Halford misses the note multiple times during one song.
all these men that hate on this band because Rob is gay .. are in the Closet !! Who cares about the sexual choice of anyone that Rocks like Priest!!!!! or anyone else .......
dude , what's really funny is all the " manly men " who dressed like a gay biker to look not gay , an look more manly, lol, there really weren't too many people who knew back then , i certainly didn't , and i was around for it
i/m not tryin to insult bikers, just sayin it's all the guys i knew who would dress like that because they thought it made them look more like "real men", just the irony is really funny , because they didn't realise he was a london leather boy
***** (and to Warren 552011 too) Dave Holland was convicted in 2004 of indecency with a disabled lad whom he was giving drumming lessons to and was sentenced to 8 years. He was believed to have been released in 2012. He still denies the offence(s) and has said that he is preparing to write at some length to give his side of the story but the evidence was thoroughly unpleasant. Regarding Rob Halford's sexuality - that was an open secret when I got into Hard Rock/Metal in about 1982 (I'm 48 now - time flies...) and it wasn't a problem but I have to say that since then I've had heaps of problems from homosexuals as an adult and the news here in the UK is full of stories of homosexual men molesting boys in historic criminal cases dating back decades and Dave Holland is one such (he is open about his bisexuality). Its not PC to say it but many homosexual men have a thoroughly unpleasant and arrogant attitude as I can personally testify from bitter experience. I'm not suggesting of course that Rob Halford is this type of individual and I've always been an immense fan of his and the band as a whole and people's private sexual behaviour with consenting adults is just that and not an issue for most people myself included but one's view is tainted of gays for the reasons I've outlined. I'm also a fan of most types of rock and increasingly classical music as I've got older and as a Kate Bush fan and given that Rolf Harris contributed to two of her albums it was especially galling to hear of his predatory attitude towards young girls (he was sentenced to about three years - I can't remember the exact figure) but like Dave Holland his musical contributions cannot be erased from the master tapes even if this were desirable. I only became aware of the Divinyls as a backpacker around Australia in 1989 and sexy,sensual Chrissy Amphlett singing about "a fine line between pleasure and pain" - oohh!! It was sad to hear of her passing as it was of Jan Kuhnemund of my favourite all-female rock band Vixen whom I love to bits and many other rockers who have left us in recent times. Oh well, keep defending the faith people!!!
@@jeffsparey9585esto fue en un lugar "abierto " en el cual tocan varias bandas....se los denomina "festival " , algo parecido a woodstock...hoy ya no se realizan...pero las bandas tocan en estadios....ACDC tocó en Inglaterra y llenó el estadio, metallica igual, .... sos inglés?? Seguro no superas los 20 años y estas influenciado x la basura del rap, trap y toda esa mierda
I drove my '77 Mustang II to this concert in Alpine Valley Wisconsin. Took a nice trip also. The concert was excellent. The guitar solos kicked ass. Stayed at the camp ground. I think Fastway was our opening act, but not sure. Rob Halford kicks ass. Maybe he could find new love with Tigg from SOA?
Larga vida al sacerdote d Judas... D lo mejor del heavy metal... Del mundo entero... Saludos a toda la banda d México y del mundo q les gusta el sacerdote... X q a un servidor.. le encanta... Desde león Guanajuato México!!!!..
He's fking Rob Halford for fux sake. Age six yet inevitable, for all ov us. As long as he continues to grace every stage on Earth, he gives his all against all adversity. Give him your respect.
I saw Priest in 82 in Germany with Accept and Def Leppard. One of the greatest shows ive ever seen. My ears still hurt! They played Solar Angels and Saints in Hell. Ive never heard him scream higher, the shirt had K.K.'s V crossing Tiptons S.G. and a cool photo of Halford on the back.
back in the early 1600 s i started watching youtube and came across these guys ..really good band ..was nice sitting around the fire talking about these guys to the early settlers !!!!
La mejor epoca de Judas Priest...que performance perfecta...!!!!...que sonido en vivo!! Halford en su maximo potencial!! Todos en conjunto son magnificos....sonaban apretadisimos , energicos, viscerales con pasion....Dave Holland en los tambores un metronomo , buena pegada , hacia lo justo y necesario para cada tema, sin exagerar ni sobreinteroretar, ..el mejor para este formato de Heavy Metal tradicional y pulcro.
I saw these dudes back then on their Screaming tour and it was one of the top 3 loudest and clear concerts I've been to in my life.AC-DC is another one along with Pink Floyd.The bass was just shakin your body and every hit of the bass drum felt like you were getting smacked, it was fantastic. My ears rang for a whole day after that.
Amazing quality for a video from over 30 years ago. This band just rocked it hard, would love to have a time machine and go to this show :) Because you can't see anything like this ion 2015 anymore.
1. Heading Out To The Highway 2. Metal Gods 3. Breaking The Law 4. You've Got Another Thing Comin' 5. Hell Bent For Leather 6. Diamonds And Rust 7. Victim of changes this is metal perfection.. down the hats to Metal Gods!!!
Damn! That's an amazing concert lineup. The only thing that would have made it better for me would have been seeing Iron Maiden when Paul Di'anno was in his prime. Bruce did some truly amazing stuff and the band was more commercially successful during his tenure, but I still prefer Paul.
Bill Mason I love many of their songs during Paul's days as front man, but I have to say that Bruce is a better singer IMO. There was a live album--Live Killers, I think--that was just awesome!
Sigh Co. Bassist I can totally respect opinions on both sides of the coin regarding Iron Maiden front men. My preference for Paul has a lot to do with the punk element the band had during his tenure. I liked the rougher edge he brought to their music and presentation. Both were great front men though, and Bruce has aged much more gracefully.
Saw this concert in a small, intimate arena. It was INTENSE. When they rolled the motorcycle out, it shook the whole building, and nobody could breathe. So we lit out lighters.
I was 3 yrs out of H.S but my 1st concert. Rob Halford say's out here in space I'm looking down on you and pointed at me in the front row! 😮 I was so stoned😂
This is actually great quality for 1983
Good point!
MASTERUDY Castillo You sure? Looks more like the better broadcast TV analog cameras of the period to me. I don't notice any film grain at all. But that's just nit picking.
***** Just the snare is bit "crappy"........but yes......it KICKS ASS ^_^
***** What? 1983 had much higher audio quality than 2015. Source material is crap in 2015, and home audio reproduction is garbage. In 1983, many houses had at least a quality receiver and a decent set of loudspeakers.
BillyBob Hammer The problem is when technology got cheaper to produce. Nowadays you just
need to know what to buy. In recorded music, the usual problem is no
dynamics because people think compression is actually a good thing. Even with modern releases, depending on what you get, the vinyl versions haven't been touched with that modern nonsense. But that's the fault of the people that think compression is actually a good thing, the same audio could have been put on cd but they don't want it that way. :/

What a crowd. They filled up the whole valley. Great performance. The high water mark of heavy metal.
This is the most beautiful and cool music in the world !!!
spinal tap
That intro on Victim Of Changes to this day still gives me goose bumps !
I remember living with these guys. Next door we were neighbors. ❤Judas priest 2:58
Saw them in Providence in the 80’s. Unbelievable show!
Awesome group I remember in 1983, I was 17
Sounds and musicians from late 60's through mid 80's will never be outdone. So much talent on the road full time - man did they ever learn their chops! And the cream just kept rising. Keep trying youngsters the bar has been set VERY high!
I'm hearing right now, From Merida- Venezuela 😮😮Amazing 😊😊😊
Very Nice Judas Priest Forever!!
Hands down the best band, and performance at this festival!!
Scorpions too❤

My first concert. Age 15. Told my parents I was going camping. Been playing in bands ever since. All hail the Metal Gods \m/
❤😂🎉 2 years older than me ❤
I was there had a great time
My 1st Priest Show was in 1984, Dortmund, Germanym I was 20....after 40 years I still go and see them😊
You are never to old too ROCK -N-ROLL,I will be there with you 🎉 ❤
Yo tengo 45 años y nunca pude ver a JUDAS en vivo.... si tuviste la suerte de verlos en 1984 te envidio sanamente 😂😂...sigue llendo a verlos todas las veces que puedas porque quizas ahora no te des cuenta...pero estas viendo una de las MEJORES BANDAS DE HEAVY METAL DE LA HISTORIA
Not only Priest in Dortmund Westfalen Hallen. . . Seen them all at that festival. We drove there up from Holland and God only knows how We found our Way Back. Did See DIO in Utrecht that same week. Life was GOOD. . Still is 😊
warst du nicht der erste hartz 4 empfänger deutschlands?
My favorite metal band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hard Rock Band !
@@r.blackmore5921 No, es metal.
@@francogomez4452 You don't know what is heavy metal.
I was at this concert at Glen Helen park in San Berdo.... Priest was incredible, but I thought the Scorpions absolutely killed it. That being said, was the best Cali concert I had ever seen... and I saw Deep Purple on their Perfect Stranger Reunion tour in Long Beach...
This is some amazing quality video/sound for 1983
A great performance, Rob Alford and the whole band at their peak right here is right. Oh my God just moved to LA in 1983 for that one you better believe it Judas Priest forever invincible shield tour 2024. Heading to Chicago May 1 to see him at Rosemont theater and then going to Kalamazoo Michigan to see the May 4 event swing center…✔️😎
METAL GODS for more than 40 years, I still feel young and restless and wild and whatelse when I watch this video !!!
Well, that was way back in fkng 1983.
Up to now I am still waiting for any other people/bands to bring around such sort of music, feelings, power and dedication!
Now it's up to you each individual, after 40 years, to BREAK the ....
No need quite yet, JP still killin' in 2024!
Greatest singer in metal history
THAT'S WHAT EVERYONE KNOWS, HALFORD IS THE BEST SINGER PERIOD.
Tim "the ripper" Owen is far away better.
This is the most insane shit I've ever read. Literally any of his contemporaries are better. This is such mediocre metal that does not stand the test of time.
He's one of the top five for sure, but greatest? Come on. You didn't hear Dio or Bruce Dickinson not staying in tune. Halford misses the note multiple times during one song.
@MikkoVille true but to be fair, you don't go to a concert to see them play perfectly lol
all these men that hate on this band because Rob is gay .. are in the Closet !! Who cares about the sexual choice of anyone that Rocks like Priest!!!!! or anyone else .......
+Warren552011. Yeah most of the metal bands in the 80s wore tons of leather and spikes as did the fans.
Warren552011 Rob is awesome. That's all.
dude , what's really funny is all the " manly men " who dressed like a gay biker to look not gay , an look more manly, lol, there really weren't too many people who knew back then , i certainly didn't , and i was around for it
i/m not tryin to insult bikers, just sayin it's all the guys i knew who would dress like that because they thought it made them look more like "real men", just the irony is really funny , because they didn't realise he was a london leather boy
***** (and to Warren 552011 too) Dave Holland was convicted in 2004 of indecency with a disabled lad whom he was giving drumming lessons to and was sentenced to 8 years. He was believed to have been released in 2012. He still denies the offence(s) and has said that he is preparing to write at some length to give his side of the story but the evidence was thoroughly unpleasant. Regarding Rob Halford's sexuality - that was an open secret when I got into Hard Rock/Metal in about 1982 (I'm 48 now - time flies...) and it wasn't a problem but I have to say that since then I've had heaps of problems from homosexuals as an adult and the news here in the UK is full of stories of homosexual men molesting boys in historic criminal cases dating back decades and Dave Holland is one such (he is open about his bisexuality). Its not PC to say it but many homosexual men have a thoroughly unpleasant and arrogant attitude as I can personally testify from bitter experience. I'm not suggesting of course that Rob Halford is this type of individual and I've always been an immense fan of his and the band as a whole and people's private sexual behaviour with consenting adults is just that and not an issue for most people myself included but one's view is tainted of gays for the reasons I've outlined.
I'm also a fan of most types of rock and increasingly classical music as I've got older and as a Kate Bush fan and given that Rolf Harris contributed to two of her albums it was especially galling to hear of his predatory attitude towards young girls (he was sentenced to about three years - I can't remember the exact figure) but like Dave Holland his musical contributions cannot be erased from the master tapes even if this were desirable.
I only became aware of the Divinyls as a backpacker around Australia in 1989 and sexy,sensual Chrissy Amphlett singing about "a fine line between pleasure and pain" - oohh!! It was sad to hear of her passing as it was of Jan Kuhnemund of my favourite all-female rock band Vixen whom I love to bits and many other rockers who have left us in recent times. Oh well, keep defending the faith people!!!
I was there with some friends, blacked out waiting in line to get in, probably from the weed and the high heat. Great show!
Where was the concert?
@@jeffsparey9585 San Bernardino California
@@beansbaxter224 thankyou for replying ,,we never had concerts as big as that crowd in the UK
@@jeffsparey9585esto fue en un lugar "abierto " en el cual tocan varias bandas....se los denomina "festival " , algo parecido a woodstock...hoy ya no se realizan...pero las bandas tocan en estadios....ACDC tocó en Inglaterra y llenó el estadio, metallica igual, .... sos inglés?? Seguro no superas los 20 años y estas influenciado x la basura del rap, trap y toda esa mierda
I was there also! I’ll never forget the weekend!
Best Judas Priest video I've seen. Rightfully legendary band.
They gave a shit, like Scorps and Triumph. VH fucked their fans.
Fukin' epic... I'll say it again, Fukin' epic.... thanx for the load,joined, good day all...
looks like they are shitting in the rain ... kkk ... well in "maciota" making a sound
Best Heavy Metal singers: Rob Halford, Bruce Dickinson, Ronnie James Dio.
Bruce dickinson está sobrevalorado
Geoff tate
AND Mercury!
RIP RONNIE JAMES DIO !!!!
@@hotrd91614yep
Priest's sound and performance is so good it's almost like a music video. Superb band.
Those times were great, first golden era of hard rock/metal. Thanks all Gods i lived those times with those bands like Judas Priest
A better time and place than now thats for sure. I'll be 60 this summer and I'm glad I got to see and live it.
これは正にHeavy Metalのバイブル🤘真の神々の雄姿がここにあります。永遠に語り継がれる映像🤘God bless you‼️
I saw Judas Priest on August 13, 1988 at the Hampton Coliseum in Virginia. Cinderella opened.
Glad I got to see them in the 80's. They always put on a great show.
Me too, but the lineup with
Ripper is better...
i was a teenager, i watched it on TV at Midnite , since then...i am a Rocker
Awesome! I saw them in the late 70s in Portland at the Paramount. Rob Halford rode on stage on a motorcycle. My favorite heavy metal band.
Probably the best year for rock IMO.
18 and was loving it.
I drove my '77 Mustang II to this concert in Alpine Valley Wisconsin. Took a nice trip also. The concert was excellent. The guitar solos kicked ass. Stayed at the camp ground. I think Fastway was our opening act, but not sure. Rob Halford kicks ass. Maybe he could find new love with Tigg from SOA?
Is that that show to Alpine Valley you better believe it my friend Judas Priest forever grew up in Chicago in Wilmette Illinois
Larga vida al sacerdote d Judas... D lo mejor del heavy metal... Del mundo entero... Saludos a toda la banda d México y del mundo q les gusta el sacerdote... X q a un servidor.. le encanta... Desde león Guanajuato México!!!!..
How do you know a band is good? THEY SOUND GREAT LIVE!
He's fking Rob Halford for fux sake. Age six yet inevitable, for all ov us. As long as he continues to grace every stage on Earth, he gives his all against all adversity. Give him your respect.
I saw Priest in 82 in Germany with Accept and Def Leppard. One of the greatest shows ive ever seen. My ears still hurt! They played Solar Angels and Saints in Hell. Ive never heard him scream higher, the shirt had K.K.'s V crossing Tiptons S.G. and a cool photo of Halford on the back.
As a professional musician. Back here early 80s. My bad was more middle of the road. This is The Ultimate. Thank you Brittany Rock
SO glad they grabbed Scott Travis from Racer X !!!! Judas got better & better as time rolled on.
ALL BOW TO JUDAS PRIEST THEN AND NOW.
Triumph and Judas Priest kicked ass at this festival.
So did the Scorpions.
Rob Halford - One and Only...THE BEST OF THE BESTS..!!!
I was in the middle of grade school and we talked about priest then. Now I like them even better live.
Wow that is A LOT of people!!
back in the early 1600 s i started watching youtube and came across these guys ..really good band ..was nice sitting around the fire talking about these guys to the early settlers !!!!
Amazing, am watching it today 2024
La mejor epoca de Judas Priest...que performance perfecta...!!!!...que sonido en vivo!! Halford en su maximo potencial!! Todos en conjunto son magnificos....sonaban apretadisimos , energicos, viscerales con pasion....Dave Holland en los tambores un metronomo , buena pegada , hacia lo justo y necesario para cada tema, sin exagerar ni sobreinteroretar, ..el mejor para este formato de Heavy Metal tradicional y pulcro.
most amazingt thing i have ever watched
Es mi grupo favorito de los 15 años lla los escucho tengo 58 años son de lo mejor🎉
I saw these dudes back then on their Screaming tour and it was one of the top 3 loudest and clear concerts I've been to in my life.AC-DC is another one along with Pink Floyd.The bass was just shakin your body and every hit of the bass drum felt like you were getting smacked, it was fantastic. My ears rang for a whole day after that.
If you have a problem with it then why in the fuck would you #1 the comment Al or whatever the hell your name is???

It was an awesome concert for sure Funk!!
PRIEST IS METAL AT ITS BEST!
I was there. Still have the ticket. Judas was like thunder man!380,000 people!!
Amazing quality for a video from over 30 years ago. This band just rocked it hard, would love to have a time machine and go to this show :) Because you can't see anything like this ion 2015 anymore.
Una de las mejores bandas de metal de la historia,que épocas en aquí en argentina escuché a Judas priest por primera vez
Rob was just sooooooo amazing...So unique and special !

I SAW IRON MAIDEN OPEN FOR JUDAS PRIEST IN 1982, MAIDENS BEAST TOUR AND PRIESTS VENGEANCE TOUR...FANTASTIC SHOW.
two of my favorite bands, you could say I'm a bit jealous!
Damn! That's an amazing concert lineup. The only thing that would have made it better for me would have been seeing Iron Maiden when Paul Di'anno was in his prime. Bruce did some truly amazing stuff and the band was more commercially successful during his tenure, but I still prefer Paul.
Bill Mason
I love many of their songs during Paul's days as front man, but I have to say that Bruce is a better singer IMO. There was a live album--Live Killers, I think--that was just awesome!
Sigh Co. Bassist Beast over Hammersmith, the live album with Bruce is amazing!
Sigh Co. Bassist I can totally respect opinions on both sides of the coin regarding Iron Maiden front men. My preference for Paul has a lot to do with the punk element the band had during his tenure. I liked the rougher edge he brought to their music and presentation. Both were great front men though, and Bruce has aged much more gracefully.
Possibly the best live band of all time.
If this performance is the standard of greatness, this is the deal.
It was an epic day.
The greatest collection of '80s heavy metal bands ever assembled, outside of Castle Donnington's Monsters of Rock!
The Greatest Metal band of all time! The Metal Gods!
Saw this concert in a small, intimate arena. It was INTENSE. When they rolled the motorcycle out, it shook the whole building, and nobody could breathe. So we lit out lighters.
I was 3 yrs out of H.S but my 1st concert. Rob Halford say's out here in space I'm looking down on you and pointed at me in the front row! 😮 I was so stoned😂
Rob you are the best vocal on the world
