Introduction
Heavy metal has always been one of my favorite genres, and when I found out that my favorite band, Judas Priest, was coming to Hamilton’s FirstOntario Centre on December 2nd I knew I had to be there. The show had everything – a great venue, an incredible setlist that touched on their whole career and not just a single era (which is rare for most bands), and even a really cool opening act with Saxon.
A Brief History of Judas Priest
Priest is a British heavy metal band that was formed in 1969. They are one of the most successful heavy metal bands in history and they have sold more than 50 million albums worldwide. The band has released 18 studio albums, four live albums, six compilation albums, and two extended plays.

One band that did not disappoint was heavy metal group, Judas Priest. The group played a forty-five minute set, which included all their greatest hits such as Breaking the Law and You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’. The show also included a solo performance by guitarist Glenn Tipton, which was followed by a drum solo.
