BENJAMIN: if you think yopu can’t imagine putting the SCORPIONS in the metal category then i think you don’t have a clue what is heavy metal.and i think u r a Britney” boobs” Spears fan. Even though the scorpions are more to classic rock but many of their songs did inspire to the birth and creation of heavy metal.if you cant see connection of the Scorpions and heavy metal together then ..do ur self a favor and become and do sum research of the history of metal.

hello excuse me you classic rock magazine ..SCORPIONS IS NOT ” A LIGHTER ACT” . let me correct you..SCORPIONS IS A KILLER HARD ROCK BAND and they inspired and even thought some of the heavier bands to be what they are today. im sure those those who loves rock music knows SCORPIONS IS A HEAVY BAND,though at times melodic but they invented being “HEAVY N MELODIC”. so please think before you make a comment on a great legent like SCORPIONS ok..to be correct SCORPIONS are the MASTERS OF HEAVY ROCK AND NOT “lighter act”.

I am going to see Priest on this tour coz they are one of the classic bands..which I also put Maiden, Scorpions, Motorhead, Saxon, AC/DC, Purpl, Zep, UFO,Lizzy, Rainbow and Sabbath in that category..I have always loved Priest but I have to agree…Scorpions blew them away when they last toured together..I saw them at Hammersmith and it lead to the Scorpions going back to Hammersmith twice since, headlining and rocking as good as ever…come on Priest… I wanna see you ROCK again!

I love Priest, yeah the latest cd isn’t my cup of tea, but as far as seeing them live goes, it’s gonna be a blast, especially with Testement and Megadeth on the bill, it’s gonna be KILLER.
Why do YOU lot go on about, “oooh i’m gonna see Metallica” or whatever, who cares? What is that to do with Priest? I’m going too………and?????
I’ll be at both gigs (and AC/DC) and loving every minute of it. STOP BITCHING.

Judas Priest are one of the only bands who are constantly trying to push the boundry’s of the metal scene. They certainly can not be accused of turning out the same repetetive sounds under a different album title hoping to cash in, as do many others.
As for the tour I am travelling from Newcastle to see the Metal gods at Sheffield, looking forward to seeing Megadeth also. One thing for sure Judas Priest never fail to deliver the goods live, they are one of, if not the best live bands around.

I will not go to see priest because of the megadeth-testament crap!
BORING!!
And then I don’t like Nostradamus,I want REAL priest sound such as point of entry,british steel,screaming for vengeance,the monumental LIVE IN JAPAN UNLEASHED IN THE EAST even TURBO is much better than Nostradamus!!!
Priest will remain the best heavy metal band for me,much much better than fuckin metallica shit or iron maiden but,please,record a GOOD album and tour with REAL heavy metal -hard rock bands not wimpy trasher!

Did Brent really refer to Jethro Tull as a “he”? Both Nostradamus and Death Magnetic are great albums from 2 great bands that I have followed for the last 25 years. Enjoy the fact that 2008 was a great year overall for metal and hard rock and stop bickering.
