Like every classic band that is still playing after being around for decades, there is always the question if they still should be doing it. Perhaps the most ironic moment came when the band broke into their song, “Breaking the Law,” as the Cincinnati Justice Center was in view just off to the right side of the stage. The mix made for one solid set, and one great night of heavy metal music. The band blew through a seventeen song set that laced classic songs like “Devil’s Child,” Electric Eye,” and “Pain Killer” along with songs from their 2014 release, “Redeemer of Souls.” While new material sometimes gets swallowed up by a bands classic tunes, the songs from Redeemer blended into the set seamlessly. Three and a half years later, it was clear that Priest were far from being done. At that time, that tour was believed to be the band’s last. The last time that the British Metal Pioneers played Cincinnati was back in November of 2011 as a part of their Epitaph Tour. You see, heavy metal icons, Judas Priest was in town and the band was delivering the goods to their loyal fans. It may have been a Sunday night in Cincinnati, but Monday morning was the furthest thing on the minds of the heavy metal faithful at The Horseshoe Casino.
