Judas Priest’s tour hits SaskTel Centre With Judas Priest’s latest studio album, Firepower, confirmed as one of the most successful of the band’s entire career, landing in the top five of 17 countries (including their highest chart placement ever in the U.S., at #5), demand to see the legendary metal band in concert is higher than ever. Saskatoon headbangers will get their chance to experience the legendary band at SaskTel Centre, June 8, with the classic metal band Uriah Heep as support. “Metal maniacs - Judas Priest is roaring back to the USA for one more blast of Firepower! Firepower 2019 charges forth with new first time performances born out of Firepower, as well as fresh classic cuts across the decades from the Priest world metalsphere,” says the band in a release. “Our visual stage set and light show will be scorching a unique, hot, fresh vibe - mixing in headline festivals, as well as the in-your-face venue close ups. We can’t wait to reunite and reignite our maniacs... the Priest is back!” There are few heavy metal bands that have managed to scale the heights that Judas Priest have during their nearly 50-year career - responsible for issuing such all-time classic albums as British Steel, Screaming for Vengeance, and Painkiller, as well as the anthems “Breaking the Law,” “Living After Midnight,” and “You’ve Got Another Thing Coming.” See Judas Priest performing June 8 at SaskTel Centre.
