Judas Priest/Heaven and Hell/Motorhead/Testament tour

IFryKids · Post by **IFryKids** » Mon Apr 07, 2008 7:02 pm

I think my balls just exploded.

According to TicketsNow, the upcoming JUDAS PRIEST, HEAVEN AND HELL, MOTÃ–RHEAD and TESTAMENT tour will hit Camden, New Jersey on August 6 and Dallas, Texas on August 22.

So far the following ***unconfirmed*** dates for the tour have been revealed:

Aug. 06 - Camden, NJ @ Susquehanna Bank Center
Aug. 07 - Bristow, VA @ Nissan Pavilion At Stone Ridge
Aug. 09 - Holmdel, NJ @ PNC Bank Arts Center
Aug. 10 - Wantagh, NY @ Nikon At Jones Beach Theater
Aug. 13 - Toronto, ON @ The Molson Amphitheatre
Aug. 15 - Uncasville, CT @ Mohegan Sun
Aug. 16 - Burgettstown, PA @ Post-Gazette Pavilion
Aug. 18 - Clarkston, MI @ DTE Energy Music Theatre
Aug. 19 - Tinley Park, IL @ First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre
Aug. 22 - Dallas, TX @ Superpages.com Center

**IMPORTANT**: The above-listed dates should be treated as a *rumor only* until officially confirmed by the bands involved with the tour or the tour's organizers, Live Nation.

TESTAMENT frontman Chuck Billy announced onstage last night (Sunday, April 6) at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill in New York City that his band has been confirmed as the opening act on the JUDAS PRIEST, HEAVEN AND HELL and MOTÃ–RHEAD tour.

"We'll be on first, and we're only gonna have 30 minutes, so we won't be doing any talking," Billy said. "We're just gonna hit you hard â€” bam, bam, bam, bam â€” with everything we've got."

In an interview with "The Classic Metal Show" which aired on March 29, JUDAS PRIEST singer Rob Halford stated about the trek, "Live Nation are promoting the tour, and I guess the professional way of dealing with this is to say that Live Nation will be making an official announcement probably a few days from now. But it's difficult to keep that kind of thing quiet 'causeâ€¦ If it does happen, and it's looking very real, it's gonna be one of the biggest metal shows in the States this year. . . You have to wait for the official announcement because it has to be sanctioned by management and the lawyers in the suits and that other rubbish. But if we get what we are hoping to get, I think it's gonna be an absolutely sensational, killer American tour â€” 'cause it won't happen anywhere else in the world, this lineup. It'll just be for the States."

No it's not! I would really like to see Testament at least once. They could at least stop at Raleigh or Charlotte. Hell, I'd even drive to South Carolina to see 'em.

How far north would you drive for a chance to see Testament?

(and have a Klondike bar eaten out of you?)

Virginia.

(Sorry, but I don't even like Klondike bars.)

Virginia's not even halfway!

We meed in PA.

You don't need to like them, unless you plan on felching your squirtage from my mouth.

In which case I'd be happy to substitute for a frozen treat of your choosing.

This show was awesome just the venue sucks. I upgraded my ticket for $10 there from lawn to front area near the stage. I was pretty close for a last minute seat upgrade. The lawn was all closed off so I guess they were trying to fill all the seats and get another buck out of the fans. Seriously, $5 for a vitamin water, $8 for a beer. Gay. I'm glad they didn't go ahead and charge for parking like it said on the ticket.

I hate they had the mix all fucked up for testament and motorhead. Then it's all golden for heaven and hell and priest.

Heaven and hell blew away priest imo. The stage set was badass. I can die happy now. Priest gave no encore.....

You should of saw them at the pearl room. The reason for no encore could be because they had to be done by 11.
