Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Saxon. Moody Colloseum in Dallas. 81 or 82. I saw a legit murder in the parking lot after the show. It was magical.

Here's one that should be on any JP fan's radar: KK Priest, featuring former Judas Priest members KK Downing and Tim "Ripper" Owens. They are much better live, though I think JP is still better on recent studio records.

I saw this concert recently. Sabaton sounded great. There was an 11 year old kid in the front row that the lead singer talked to. How old?... how many concerts have you been to?, etc. The crowd cheered for the kid when he said something like 53, and then the lead singer gave the kid the Aviator looking sunglasses he was wearing to him. At the end of the show the drummer came over to the front of the stage and handed the kid his drumsticks. As the opening act they only got to play one hour. I wish they could have gone on for 2 plus. Judas Priest stage items started to come out as the Sabaton stuff was wheeled behind the backdrop, and me and my son headed for the door.

I never cared for Judas Priest, the tone of his voice irritates me. Just something about it I can't stand. I saw them play as an opening act along with Queensryche in 2000 on Iron Maiden's Brave New World tour. Queensryche knocked out some of the newer stuff they had out, then played some from the Operation: Mindcrime album. They sounded great and it was good to see them at a large venue vs. the smaller ones that I had seen them play. Judas Priest came on stage after the equipment was ready. I lasted through one song. It was nothing but shrieking and a repetitive guitar chorus, it made my ears hurt. I went back out to the parking lot and had a couple beers in the back of my truck. Their playtime was over, and I headed back inside for 2.5 hours of Iron Maiden. Mr. Dickinson and his friends sounded great, in tune and in speed. I will never sit through a Judas Priest concert.
