Trying to plug a gaping hole in my collection. Another 12,000 albums or so and I might be satisfied. But seriously, I can't ever find any albums by these guys in the resale shops. But thanks to Discogs and eBay, I'm working on getting a half-dozen or so from this group. I saw this concert back in '82, and I don't know how many people suffered hearing damage from it, but it was probably several. It was supposed to be an outdoor show, but got moved inside to the concourse at Arlington Park because of inclement weather. The stage wasn't very high, and I kind of got pinned against it trying to take photos when they came onstage. It was brutal. But I'd do it again. Judas Priest - Screaming For Vengeance
LYRICS: I've been trying There's no denying. It's sending me Out of my mind. I've seen reason Change to treason. It's losing its sense Of all kind. How much ...

@JohnRoberts One of my best friends growing up was a huge Judas Priest fan, I actually have a tshirt with their logo on it. See, I'm not as useless with old people stuff as you thought.

I know. Like 10cc said, the things we do for love...when it comes to concerts. I'd probably have my house paid off if I'd stop going to concerts...but then, it'd be a house and not a home. Glad you're getting the collection filled up.

Pretty sure I couldn't name a song by them if my life depended on it.

If you did know one it would likely be this one
Probably their most played song on the radio off this album, but it's still great anyways. Rob Halford - Lead vocals K.K. Downing - Lead guitar Glenn Tipton ...

Was this the tour that Rob rode the Harley out on the scaffolding for his entrance?

Yep. They had a raffle for a bike with the Screaming eagle on the tank at the show, but the bike was a Kawasaki...I'd have still taken it if I had won

Sounds hectic but fun! But not my cup of tea. My vinyl collection is pretty small and I like collecting ones with unusual covers it slowly expands. Maybe try they have some pretty cool ones
