Morning MetalGods!!!
Thanks for taking the time to send a message to the faithful on your first day off - LOL
Talk about dedication ; )
 Believe me!  The tour was as much fun to watch as I'm sure you had performing ...  

... and now, to Rob!!!
It was a good feeling to finally meet you again after 24+ years ; )
Thank you for the warm farewell in Corpus.
I didn't get to tell you then, so I'm going to now, "Welcome home! We missed you while you were gone!"
You have honestly grown to be an incarnation of immortality.
But remember, while you're in this world you will feel its pain.
Only when you return to the realm of the immortals will you no longer feel it!
(have that shoulder looked after soon,k)
So my blessing to you on this your day is ...
MetalLove & Peace  Good health & Happiness

HAPPY BIRTHDAY METAL GOD ROB HALFORD!!!!!!!!!!     WE ALL LOVE YOU MAN AND "THANK YOU" FOR CREATING 

HEAVY METAL FOR ALL OF US!!!!!  


J.D.DIAMOND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'VE SEEN JUDAS PRIEST 3 TIMES IN MY LIFETIME.
THE THIRD WAS IN ATLANTA, GA ON AUGUST 20, 2009.
 YOU GUYS STILL KICK ASS AND ARE THE GREATEST HEAVY METAL BAND OF ALL TIME.  I JUST ASK THAT NEXT TIME,  
ADD "GREEN MANALISHI" TO YOUR SETLIST/PLAYLIST/ENCORE.
ALSO, ROB UNLESS YOU GET TERMINALLY ILL OR WORSE,
 NEVER LEAVE THE BAND AGAIN.  NO ONE CAN SING THOSE  JUDAS PRIEST HITS AS GOOD AS YOU.--TRAVIS L. BALL-- 

I'm still recovering from the show last night in Atlanta. All I can say is after 30 years the PREIST is still KICKING ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The playing of the BRITISH STEEL album was an awesome show, hopefully we can talk the guys in doing the same for SCREAMING FOR VENGENCE.

Looking forward to seeing you guys again,for the second time, this Sunday at Meadowbrook in Gilford,NH.Saw you on the Angel of Retribution tour in Manchester,NH.What an AWSOME show that was.Bringing with me 2 of my best friends who have not seen you before,but we grew up listening to you.Always needed the JUDAS PRIEST fix before school.
Can't thank you guys enough for the MUSIC,the EMOTION and the MEMORIES.This will be a trip down memory lane for me as my first PRIEST experience was listening to BRITISH STEEL.
Thanks again for it all.

On a side note,I happen to know the bus driver for Rob.Brian is his name and he's good friends with the owner where I work.

August 20th is fast approaching. Just curious if there is any way to get backstage passes or if the band will be meeting fans

One this MetalMum's proudest moments happened during the 'Priest set in San Antonio - I'd almost forgotten I was there with my son ... d'oh!  I was quickly reminded when I turned around and saw him headbanin' & singing right along with me  ... he stopped for a second, and looked at me with this grin    
Thanks guys for such a great show!!! See you next time ...

OH, My GOD! Thank You Bill, Jayne, and Boys!

What a GREAT way to start my day as to see that you have answered us once again by making, what will be a treasured, DVD of this British Steel Tour, '09! I'm sure it will look and sound awesome as it did live with the light and laser show that was put on.
Thanks again guys. You are ALL Metal Gods in my book!!!

Ken, Long Time Fan

To the Metal Gods:

 I have been a loyal and devoted fan since I was 10 years old and have seen every tour since 1980 here in Michigan and other venues and they have all been outstanding shows, I have seen the British Steel tour in Toronto, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago and I am going to Cincinatti tomorrow night, I drive to the shows and then drive home all night and then go straight to work in the morning.

I was in absolute awe when I saw the first show of this amazing tour in Toronto, I literally had shivers down my spine throughout the entire show and tears of joy in my eyes with your current setlist, never in a million years did I think I would see a show with a dream setlist like that.

This is by far the most incredable tour I have ever seen in my life, I have been to literally thousands of shows in my life and no other band can even come close to what you are achieving on this tour, you are rock solid, tighter than hell and giving it 110% percent every night,   Mr. Halford voice is capable of hitting notes that no other mere mortal can come close to, my God my knees get weak when that man sings, K.K., Glen your are shredding those axes in a manner unlike I have ever seen before, Ian, Scott, flawless and amazing.

This is my dream tour with the single best setlist I have ever seen from any band, Priest are my Idols and this set list just keeps me coming back for more, until my bank account runs dry.

Cincinatti show sitting in Pit L row F seat 16 and it would be my dream come true to meet my favorite band and thank them for delivering the best tour and set list that ever seen in my life and I know it can never be equalled by any other band.

Other bands take heed on what is being delivered on stage by the Mighty Priest as every other band in the world are simply mortal compared to the Metal Gods that be the Priest.

Thank you again for this tour and the perfect set list as you have made me and all of your loyal fans happier than words can ever express, I pray you will be releasing a DVD of this tour.

From the bottom of my heart thank you for doing this tour as it has been the best concert experience of my life. 

I'm still speechless from the experience of seeing British Steel in it's entirety, unbelievable.   

Matt A.  Detroit, Michigan

Hey Jayne, Bill, and Boys,
YOU GUYS MUST DO A DVD OF THIS BRITISH STEEL TOUR '09!
IT WAS PHENOMINAL AND MUST BE CHERISHED FOR YEARS
TO COME. PLEASE! WHAT AN AWESOME CHAPTER TO CAPTURE 
IN JUDAS PRIEST HISTORY!

ONLY 4 MORE DAYS TILL MY FIRST PRIEST CONCERT!

Darryn have a fricken and miserable life, a life without family and without friends, that why he's doing all the things here.
He haven't friends here. Not a single member like him and no-one want to be friended with him!!
To have "287" respect points by "279" friends he's needing more than 100 fake accounts!! Darryn created all this fake accounts to be the "most respected member" of the board, but he is the most unrespected member of the board!!
From time to time he's posting with two to four of his accounts to distribute his shit and to make trouble and to insult other members!!
Man, you are 45 years old. Start to act like adults do and don't act like a little child!!
But I think you don't want to do it 'Cause peoples like you don't have a life and a future!!

DREAMS DO COME TRUE:

I want to thank the management, and those responsible for making the Japan dream alive. I cannot wait to see the band perform again on these shores. I have been going to every tour of the group, in three countries since the early,early 1980s. I was so overjoyed to read the belief that I have always had in the group to appear at last.

There is no replacement to this. Never! I was in tears when I read the truth about the band coming back to Japan.

I had a dream, musical angels soaring around me, with Judas Priest in their voices.  Magic!

Thank you!  

James
