The date was 10th of september and the priest was due on stage in about 2 hours! The time was approximately 7:45 pm! Bumped into old friends and started consuming massive quantitys of alcohol, (didn`t bother about support bands-THEY SUCK COMPARED TO PRIEST)! The time is now 9:00 pm and the bar has run out of beer,(With a half our before the show, this is disastrous)! But alas, Bundy and cola are still available, much to our delight! The time is now 9:29 as we scramble to our seats to the roar of the crowd we are ushered to the opening sounds of Dawn of creation/Prophecy! THE REST IS HISTORY.........!!!!!!!!! I hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did!

Perth 16th September 2008. THE BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE!!!!! I was right in the front row on the barrier, in the dead centre of the stage. What an awesome performance. The whole band was in fine form throughout the whole set! They played the same full set list as on the rest of the tour. Highlights for me were Eat Me Alive, Rock Hard Ride Free, Sinner and when Rob got wheeled out on that awesome throne for Messenger of Death I nearly died. But then, in the middle of Green Manalishi, Glenn came right up the front of the stage, so I blew him a kiss, and GUESS WHAT!!!! He blew one right back!!!!!  I got to shake his hand at the end of the gig too. At the beginning of Between the Hammer and the Anvil the whole front row started doing this  in time to the music. Priest kicks ass!!!!!!!!!
Rob said they have the day off today and are going shopping in the city, so it looks like I am off Priest hunting again today in my lunch break. They HAVE to come back for the Nostradamus concert. Anywhere in Australia is fine - just one gig and I will fly there to see it. But this time I am getting a meet and greet ticket.
Thanks for a top night lads. You really blew the roof off!!!!!! |

I do believe had priest of come at different time of year there would of been a sell out in melbourne, other than that the gig was excellent to the extreme. |

| U sure hope they come again next time! I was suching a great performence! I saw them over in Melbourne and I managed to get to the barrier on K K Downing's side. The highlight for me was Rock Hard Ride Free I could help my scream andscream until my lungs went dry and even then I kept on yelling and scream |

Just back from Sydney... Priest blew me away for the second time. "what you say Sydney!!" fuck yeah! I love the fact that they played Devils Child, Green Manalishi and Dissident Aggressor never thought they'd play em live.
Anyone who has photos from either gig i'd love to see them, Myself am having a few problems with the computer but as soon as i can i have footage and photos from both shows to post. |

What an AWESOME night! I had a ball, my ears were ringing for hours afterwards, and my throat sore from screaming out the lyrics. I got a few comments about my 'HALFORD' T shirt, but unfortunately couldn't get in a spot where Rob could see it. It was the only one in the venue, that's for sure! .
Peace, Glen. |

Well what an awesome show in Brissie last night! The guys were in terrific form and really seemed to enjoy themselves. And Rob... well some people may say his singing is not what it was but what a load of crap. He is nearly 60 but he still has the best voice ever and his singing was brilliant. He hit all the high notes and really gave it everything. Priest also played some songs I didn't expect and also played for nearly two hours (alot longer than advertised with Ticketek). All in all the best gig I have ever been to and I have now been to over 60 odd, including all the legendary bands...they are just that good. I really hope alot of people turn out to their remaining Aussie shows and lets get them back again (with a decent promoter next time).
Judas Fucking Priest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Priest is comming to blow you away Sydney!! the Brisbane gig was absolutely f*&^ing amazing!!!!!! They played so many songs i never expected to hear live, i wont mention what songs of course. My brother and I were on the front barrier smack bang in the middle. For those of you who saw the handcuffs go up on stage towards the end of the gig.. yes they were mine and yes my brother threw them up there! So damn wicked!! We got plenty of attention from Ian Hill probably because we kept screaming out his name .. gotta love it.
