I can't believe that Priest aren't touring America this year.They turned their backs on us UK fans back in the 80's when they started making it big over there.However they still have a loyal fan base here and maybe they think it's time to finally give us some of the attention we deserve because it's hard being a metal fan in the UK as there is hardly any mainstream coverage given to the genre at all despite the massive popularity of the music.This is proven by the sold out notices that regularly get posted when bands can be bothered to tour here.
Anyways I'm off to see the mighty Priest this Saturday which is virtually a hometown gig for them and it is long overdue.
I'm sure they'll be back in the States pretty soon though as it was you guys who made them their fortune and ensured their legendary status.
Oh, and yes ANGEL OF RETRIBUTION is up there with the best classic Priest material.
