eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I really wish this was an indoor event, but beggers can't be choosers I suppose.

finnaly a tour of epic proportions that i don't have to go to another state for!!!

 

[Jasonic]

I know, this is going to own on so many levels, it isn't even funny......

When Motorhead was on the Maiden / Dio tour, as much as I love them, I was like, "Eh, ok, but I have seen them many times over the past few years"

They didn't do a proper US tour for KISS OF DEATH, which was a stellar release.

My only fear with this tour is the Priest set.
They had mentioned previously the desire to perform their whole new album in its entirety. They are not the headliner on this tour. I am thinking their reasoning for going out as a non-headliner would be to play the whole new album. As a non-headliner, in a weird way, there might be less stress involved for attempting such a thing. Who knows? Maybe I am completely off base...... Either way, it will be an amazing night involving MANY metal legends!

 

[Jasonic]

I wish it wasn't a Tuesday, and that it was at a different venue.

You aren't going to this????

It's at Tinley, and you will be at Bradley then right???

That will barely be a 2 hour drive.

Priest wants to do 2 tours, 1 to support Nostradamus, next 1 to do greatest hits and the like.
usually the headlining 1s is where they support the album.
not 100% sure but rest assured for now.

Outdoor shows suck. If tickets end up on sale soon, I'm probably going to blow this off given that I've bought Powerfest and Maiden tickets within the past few months.

Gotta find a way to save for the wedding somehow, and I will hate this show if it's outdoors.

 

[GateXII]

This is gonna kick ass!! Too bad it'll cost $100,000 per ticket.

At least Powerfest is only $27.50 to see Testament.

 

[Will Bozarth]

Yeah, but PAGAN FEST isn't attached to this Heaven and Hell tour!

*in before Diabolik*

Aug. 19 - Tinley Park, IL @ First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre

Wasn't this venue supposed to be demolished?
Haven't been there since the Maiden / Dio / Motorhead show like 4 yrs ago, but I bet it still sucks.
I have to hear Priest's new album before I judge if it's a good idea for them to play it in its entirely on this show. Maiden did it and I was most pleased.

Will.....
Your best post ever!! Well done!

 

[Jasonic]

I really hope Priest plays the new album.

You might be the only person in American with that wish, tho I think it might come true...

 

[KingsGene]

So....how real is this "rumored" information? Can I mark it down? Has it been posted anywhere?

 

[Jasonic]

Probably.

1. I've seen a "greatest hits" Priest show.
2. I might like the new album.
3. If I go to this, I definitely won't go to a Priest only show where they'd do the new album.

Definitely see your points....
For me, this show is about the complete package....

1) Seen H&H already, might not go again with openers I don't care for
2) Never seen Priest yet
3) Seen Motorhead prolly 10 times, but it has been a while
4) Can't make Sat for Powerfest, so Testament is a bonus

This info was originally posted on Pollstar, but then removed. It was reported by Blabbermouth.
