I tend to agree that there is some contentment on the part of Priest, after all they have a huge back catalog of music that defines who they are and their accomplishments. However I have to believe they were really hoping for'gold' glory again with Nostradamus. IMO the problem is money. JP does a cost/benefit analysis on the cost to make and promote a cd VS potential cd sales and that determins where they think they need to "cut corners" to be profitable. So IMO they cheapen up the videos (ie AOR's 'Revolution' with music overdub existing footage & the cartoon 'War' video) then hire a friend producer (Roy Z ) who is ok but not top quality or do it yourself (KK/Glenn in Nostradamus & some of AOR).
You have to spend the money to make the money. If you spend little, you get little. You can't blame management for everything because JP members are pushing 60 and after 35+ years in the business they know what to do - it's dollars & cents! Eventhough sometime "commonsense" seems to exscape them.

I'm not sure they see it the same way we do...they're happy and content...outlasted most, no worries...we, as fans, seem to take things more personally (?) than they do...I also just think that we are tired of seeing lessor bands recieve more attention and accolades than our boys, and it pisses us off...even if they read our posts, what do we say amongst ourselves that they haven't heard before??...surely we're not the only ones to see this...

The fact that JP has been this good and well recieved and chart topping for this long is amazing in and of itself. Many other bands like them are reduced to milking their 2-3 semi hit songs in dive bars around the world while JP still play is huge areas some 35+ years later!
I would be pleasantly surprised if JP made another studio cd but in the mean time; all of us should stop "arm chair quarterbacking" the JP Nostradamus cd or the 29-30 yr aniversery of British Steel and just go out there and rock out with them as much as we can before the FINAL CURTAIN CALL.

JayDee,
I cannot say this enough. Your post is 100% DEAD ON.
i HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS FOR MONTHS and I agree 100% with everything in your post.
PLEASE someone get JayDee's comments to the band.
If these decisions (listed in JayDee's email) were the recommendation of your marketing lady (or man) FIRE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JayDee and I ----- and others ------ feel that these decisions listed in JayDee's email have surpressed the success potential of this album.
PLEASE JP listen to your fans and do the reverse of the mistakes JayDee listed in his comments.
Nostradamus has 10x the depth of Turbo! (both Turbo and Ram it Down were throw-away LPs for me. they had some ok songs but the musical effort was missing.
The thing that irks me is Priest talked about how proud they were of the Nostradamus cd(and they should be) however you would never know it by the lack of music video support for their top 2-3 songs including what should have been the title track(Nos.) they spent a ton of time pre-pumping Nostradamus on the net but no video!??, then release "Visions" as the lead single (not Nostradamus??) and no video! Then they put out some half-ass cartoon video of "War' which wasn't even released as single- and non of these nor the other kick-ass songs where ever played on tour.(exception Proffecy).
JP has had a quality outside producer or music video since Painkiller ,some 18 years ago and the results are obvious. If you look at AC/DC, Metalica, Motley Crue etc... they all had good outside producers and quality videos to support their best songs and the results are ......again.....obvious!

Thanks JayDee Jespen,but its hard not to "arm chair quarterback" the Nostradamus CD,but you are right...there has to be a time for each of us to simply "let it go"...but I'm not sure if I'm going to be one of thoses people because I'm still butt hurt and bent over the Turbo album 23 years ago!!! lol!

Really Judas Priest's Nostradamus is a well put together recording of an innovative and original craft and is something "different".But does 'different" mean that it is always going to be "better"?
In my books,no it does not.I think that Nostradamus is an "overkill".I mean really guys,...do we really want about 10 soft slow ballads on one Priest record?
If Angel Of Retribution had 10 songs on it just like "Angel" and only 1 or 2 songs on it like "Judas Rising"...then it would'nt be that great of an album for Judas Priest.I just can't understand why Nostradamus had to have 22 tracks and half of them are un-Priest-like-ballads? Why?
It is so boring to me that it took away from the over-all point to this album. I really think that the band "over-did-it". Overkill is the word for this.
This album should not of been an actual Judas Priest album,and like I said before I think that the band should of put Judas Priest on hold and named this band/project of 2008 "Nostradamus" instead of Judas Priest. This would'nt make me like the album any better,but it would of made me feel better knowing that "this is not a Judas Priest album" I could of told myself. But now,it is what it is obviously.
In my opinion....The band must return into the studio and create a masterpiece that reeks of "Judas Priest" in every way shape and form.We really need a classic British metal album from them before they retire and hang up the leathers guys.

I dont think they would have gotten on mainstream radio no mater what the album or singles were like. I think they took the chance that revolution was different enough it might get on there. heard it a few times on local FM. never heard worth fighting for. I like that song actualy. Angel or wheels of fire might have made the airwaves, I doubt judas Rising would. leastways not here. but any real metal is always a sideline, of something the DJ sneeks in when the boss isnt listening on most FM.

Hot Rockin' is awsome too!! But if you are talking about "On The Run" from Point Of Entry and how Wheel Of Fire is much better,than I agree!! Desert Plains is an absolute Priest classic that stands the test of time as well as Wheels Of Fire.

I hope by playing British Steel live,they get back into that frame of mind of writting classic stylled Judas Priest songs like Angel Of Retribution's "Judas Rising"....Deal With The Devil....Demonizer,Wheel Of Fire...Hellrider...elegy...ect...these are examples of real Judas Priest classics and this is what the band needs to be thinking about when writting the next LP.

Yes. So much for all that waxing lyrical about playing the whole album!
They did very few songs from it on tour.
Now the "evening with Nostradamus" has been shelved and Priest will be playing an album recorded 28 years ago!
British Steel is far superior, but I think it would be far better for them to do an eclectic setlist with some of the less played gems. There are so many after all [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Bazooka Joe from Tuesday, March 24, 2009 10:16:22 PM)

I might possibly be going to see them on this and would love to meet anyone from the boards if there attending. I know some people from the Q are going as well.

[Screamin' Demon] Wednesday, March 25, 2009 4:07:37 AM
Question is...what will be the remaining songs in the setlist? Of course we will get songs like Electric Eye, Angel, Death, Painkiller, Hell Bent For Leather and You've Got Another Thing Comin' because they are must-play songs. But that still leaves room for another 2-4 songs in the list if they play a setlist of about 17 songs or slightly more. I'm putting my hopes out to One Shot At Glory, All Guns Blazing, Metal Meltdown, Judas Rising, Demonizer or anything else fast and furious from THIS lineup. Maybe even Nostradamus song.

IF THEY ARE NOT GOING TO PLAY A FULL NOSTRADAMUS SET, I HOPE THEY ADD MORE SONGS FROM THE ALBUM TO THE SET LIST.
[jimmyjames] Tuesday, March 24, 2009 5:34:41 AM
I have to say that Living After Midnight and United are very irritating songs but hearing the rest of British Steel live would be wicked. The reason the Nostradamus tour has been "postponed" ( read that as cancelled ) is because Priest have pulled their heads out of their asses and come to terms with the fact that nobody is all that interested in hearing it in it's entirety. Except maybe the kind of wackos who listen to the bloody thing every day.
[Maple Syrup] Wednesday, March 18, 2009 11:32:09 AM
wouldnt it be great if they left out Breakin the Law & Living after Midnight from the setlist?

British heavy metal legends JUDAS PRIEST will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their classic 1980 album "British Steel" by embarking on a special tour next year featuring a performance of that LP in its entirety. This information was revealed by the band's guitarists, K.K. Downing and Glenn Tipton, during an interview they gave to the Spanish web site Rafabasa.com yesterday (Sunday, March 15) prior to the Madrid concert on JUDAS PRIEST's "Priest Feast" tour. In addition, Tipton told Rafabasa.com that a planned "Nostradamus" tour with material exclusively from that album (featuring a full theatrical production) will now likely be postponed until a later date.
I dont know, why it says next year.. thats worded strange..

Personally I'm glad they're doing it and scrapping the Nostradamus thing. I predicted when Nostradamus came out that it wouldn't be very well received and they would eventually scrap it. Now I can go see them because there was no way I was wasting money to see Nostradamus performed in its entirety.

I don't think Maiden recreating the World Slavery Tour was a bad thing. Got to hear some tunes that you wouldn't normally hear at a Maiden show (Moonchild and Rime). Plus, I think as a band gets older their creative license to do whatever they want is a lot broader. Fuck it, if they wanna play all of British Steel in 2010 and sprinkle in some of their other songs, then it's their perrogative. I'll see them irregardless and enjoy myself just as much.

If they do that why don't they just do it with an album that best represents this lineup: Painkiller. But fuck it, I'd hate to see 'Priest do any of that. Just keep movin' forward...make more albums, play some of them on tour with old classics and new classics (ie. Angel & Death) and so on. I don't want 'Priest to turn into 'Maiden or anything as such that is regarded as nostalgic.

I think they're doing it b/c a couple of other bands are doing it with some success (hello, Motley Crue). Personally, I think bands limit themselves artistically by doing this. However, it's a new gimmick and people love gimmicks.

I'd prefer them not to. I would have loved that to have happened back in 1991 or so when the album was fresh. But nowadays...I'd like to see them play all the Painkiller songs by changing them around every tour...eg next tour do maybe One Shot At Glory and Metal Meltdown or so. But not all at once. Playing British Steel all live is just...nostalgic. Rob said Judas Priest will never be a nostalgia act, so why let it be? It's not even by this line-up. It's moving backwards instead of forward. Please 'Priest reconsider this(Quoting Message by screaming_4_priest from Tuesday, March 17, 2009 3:14:12 AM)

"In addition, Tipton told Rafabasa.com that a planned "Nostradamus" tour with material exclusively from that album (featuring a full theatrical production) will now likely be postponed until a later date."
That's fucked. They're gonna play a full album live, which they've played almost all the songs through their career, before playing a NEW fresh album live, for which they've only played 2 of 14 songs?????
