    I was there! It was a brilliant gig, i had a ball and all my bones hurt now.... :)

    Too bad we didnt get a chance to meet up. I couldnt get in touch coz our phones weren't cooperating but i managed to bump into Doc J briefly after the gig.

    Excellent night - let's do it all again! :)

    Bugger, I had no idea they were even out of recording the last album, let alone touring. :(

    Must pay more attention to these things. Must see Judas Priest live. MUST SEE.

    Big respect to our northern cousins for the great atmosphere, great venue (cold feet though) and a top night. The gorilla scum bouncers who destroy the positive energy at every MCD gig could learn quite a lot from the staff in the Odyssey who let everybody mosh, dive and generally have a great time without interfering or getting heavy, very impressive, that's how you marshal a gig, well done to them, they allowed the evening to be what it was. Priest were every bit as great as you could have hoped for and I have to say, surprise of the night were The Scorpions, who rocked like it was 1985! Great show, great bands, great venue, great crowd, great great great.

    Ancient1, next time we'll organise it better and at least one of us will have a phone that works north of Fundalk ;)

    Great gig, I'm really glad I made the effort to go up and see them. Here's a link to some photos and video clips of the gig I found http://www.ironmaiden.org/showthread.php?t=42234

    Great gig, brilliant show throughout. I was a bit pissed though and didn't remember Rob coming out on the bike until I saw those photos above :p I even asked Ancient1 the next day and he didn't remember either! Damn that Stella Artois, damn it to hell!!! :D

    I saw them over in Manchester, great gig :D

    Nice to hear stuff like I'm a rocker and Hot rockin being played live again. They sounded fantastic live (and i'm a rocker is one of my favourite priest songs so I was more than happy)

    The scorpions were great too, I went out and bought one of their cds afterwards and am in the process of checking out more of their back catalogue.

    I was well impressed with the staff and the way the whole thing was set up in Belfast. If they only did that down here it be a different story. All though as usual we're dealing with ****ing a mickey mouse set up in Dublin!!

    The Priest are great. Not more world tours for them though afaik.

    Their "Epitaph" tour was their last world tour but I'd expect to see them do plenty of dates in promotion of the new album. Presumably playing slightly more sporadically that a full working world tour.

    Wouldn't mind seeing them in an open air venue.

    Saw them at Graspop in 2011 on that Epitaph world tour, Ozzy pulled out so they ended up headlining doing a 2 and a half hour show...Was great even though Robs vocals were clearly waning. The new songs sound like hes trying not to strain his voice too much making it not too much of a struggle to perform live...

    Heres the new track


    ...Yes I too realize they were due to stop touring at the end of that Epitaph tour but they've announced thats not the case anymore and will be touring select dates to support the new album http://judaspriest.com/news/fullstory.asp?id=ED4F0F58-0EDA-47BD-A73F-0C870E425238

    The production on the new album is abysmal and the songs are boring and generic. Really disappointing so far :(
