going
finally they are playing boston area
Saw Priest in 2005 with Anthrax. They should tour with them again not Whitesnake.
Fuck Whitesnake in the asshole with a big rubber dick
…then break it off and beat David Coverdale with the rest of it
wtf why all the coverdale hate???
yeah, no interest in Whitesnake whatsoever but if I have the cash I definitely wanna see it.
also caught them on the 05 tour with Anthrax, it was awesome. wish I caught the metal masters tour.
Well fuck, I had my chance to see ‘em last year with Testament and I blew it. Looks they’re not coming back. Oh fuckin’ well, have a good time ya dickheads!!
Seeing British Steel in its entirety is one thing….having to sit through Whitesnake to get to British Steel isn’t.
Oh well, I saw them with Anthrax..one of the best shows ever…good enough for me.
Taste of Minnesota fest? lol how MN is a gay British heavy metal singer (who rules by the way) and David Coverdale?
I would only sit through Whitesnake if Tawny Kittan would strip naked throughout their whole set.
Rev up the Harleys for this tour!
i love early Whitesnake and i adore Priest!
but they arent gonna be anywhere near me
i wish it was coming to florida!
WS? WTF?
The problem is that Judas Priest should not have to tour with anyone. I didn’t get into Judas Priest until about 6 months ago ( I’m 25 ). I always had the perception back in high school that Priest were before my time or cheesy or some shit, boy was I wrong, they’re highly underrated in the world of metal!! Stained Class is a masterpiece.
whitesnake was beyond amazing when I saw them, but priest was great to.
Looks like I will hit Moondance Jam at least one day this year. Priest, Whitesnake, Lita Ford and they have one more to go for that day.
Not as good as Summer Rental
If they are still doing that Nosstradumass thing…fuckem
