ANTHRAX OPENING FOR PRIEST?

[chiefs45177]

"I just saw that and was wondering the same thing. The Judas Priest site doesn't mention Anthrax but does mention Whitesnake in September."

Whitesnake is opening the South American shows. I really hope it's Anthrax on all shows. I have front row seats for the Cincinnati show.

When Anthrax played Cleveland in 2003, Ripper was there and he did a song with them. I think it was "Madhouse"...my memory for that kind of thing sucks, and I probably had about 10 beers by that time.

In Detroit on the Preist tour, Ripper came out and did Caught In A Mosh.

Yeah Ripper wanted to open for Priest with his new band Beyond Fear but JP flipped him off.

Will Anthrax open for Judas Priest at the September 23rd show in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan?

Anyone else heard this??

Priest are coming to my home town (Ottawa), and I just heard here:

http://www.hob.com/tickets/eventdetail.asp?eventid=33861

that Anthrax are opening! .. man I'm pumped.. I wasn't gonna go just for Priest, but ORIGINAL Anthrax tooo!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

:hotjump:

You lucky fuck!!!! I saw Priest in June with gay ass Queensryche. They should have had Anthrax on the whole tour. Priest kicked ass as usual.
Enjoy!!!

just got my tickets.. 2nd row, centre can't fucking wait! :

I saw Priest a few months ago here in Holland and they blew the roof off! it's killer too see two great metal bands in one show! better than some lameass unknown opening band!

You have to be lucky though, it seems like Rob Halford isn;t spot on every night, he definately has off days now and then at his age, but here they were phenomenal and he was very dynamic, actually I have never seen him as dynamic before (and I saw him quite a few times with FIGHT, HALFORD and with PRIEST before)

I agree with the Dean guy. This is bullshit

didnt the president of the fan club say this

* news before anyone else including Blabbermouth,

well, why did everyone see this on Blabbermouth again. Dont blame the promoter for announcing who the opening band is, thats his job to get hype going to sell tickets.

Ticketmaster issued a Ticket Alert for the Oct 2nd Moline, IL Priest show and has ANthrax as opening act as well. This is bullshit.

If such a thing were to happen, do you think the openers would announce it before the headliners?

Then blame Priest for not announcing it. Opening bands cannot/may not announce they are opening for a band before the headliner says it's ok to.

 

[I_am_138]

what I am saying is that a boatload of people paid money for a fan club that was supposed to include ---NEWS BEFORE ANYONE ELSE INCLUDING BLABBERMOUTH----(did you miss that part of the fan club announcement) well Blabbermouth, CLear Channel, Ticketmaster are all announcing it.

You will get info first when it's our info to give. We cannot say anything until Judas Priest announces. Sorry, that's just the way it works. If promoters and ticket agency's announce we can't control that either.

Why don't you just chill and be happy one of the greatest metal bands ever, Anthrax, is playing shows with the Metal Gods, Judas Priest?

There are plenty of future happenings that the Anthrax CDC can announce before Blabbermouth. Unfortunately, this wasn't one of them.

 

[I_am_138]

Im not debating the ins and outs of how and when bands can announce stuff. That part I can understand.

My whole point is why claim that the fan club will get the info first, when I already got the info off of 3 sites already. We will see in the future if info gets leaked before we get it.

I hope the info is true. Priest/Anthrax will be the tour of the year.

Well the plan is to get the info first, but who could have predicted opening for JUDAS PRIEST (and the subsequent leaking of info) when the fan club was being made?

What if, just hypothetically, Anthrax announced before Judas Priest did that they were opening for Priest, and then everything fell apart? Anthrax could get their asses sued (maybe), and the band certainly doesn't want to add to its legal bullshit.

What don't you understand. This is NOT Anthrax's tour, it's Judas Priest's. If it was an Anthrax Headline tour and the fan club was up and running, you'd have something to complain about. Peace.

Hopefully there are some headlining shows on off days like on past tours.

WAH!

1) Pay site's not even out yet jack knife

2) It's not confirmed. We'll be the first to announce when it gets cancelled if that makes you happy.
