Heavy Metal fans partying before a Judas Priest concert in 1986.(VIDEO)!

[SMillard]

Rob Halford is gay.

I had a friend that was HUGE JP fan and when I told him he was in denial, it wasn't until Halford himself came out that he finally accepted it. Guess the assless leather chaps didn't clue him in.

I think it was known by then Halford was gay.
If not, then the song “eat me alive” should’ve at least given people a clue.

Was that the 'Metal Conqueror" tour, or the "Tour for Life" tour?

Spoiler

I saw the former But I never had feathered hair!!

 

[Nihongi]

I want to jump in the pit.

That’s not moshing, that’s pussy ass “crowd killing” and that f@g would’ve got his jaw broke if he did that shit to me

 

[MusterX]

That looks awesome, I’d love to bang out a trashy 80s metal whore.

Did it.

That one too (Turbolover was released after Eat me Alive). I believe Defenders of the Faith was released prior to the OP video being shot.

 

[Long Dark Blues]

Yeah it's a real shame they banned just having fun after 1986.

Fun is too political now. Smh.

 

[bubbleboyjones]

Judas Priest rules live and they were still somewhat in their prime in 86. You're telling me you'd rather be at a Jimmy Buffet concert, a Klan rally, in a concentration camp, Palestine today with the Jews killing everyone left, right and center than drinking beer, hearing classic songs and possibly getting some strange? You're lame, bro.

Fuck that. If I'm going back to the 80s to be at a concert with all dudes I'm seeing Megadeth on the Peace Sells tour not Judast Priest.

Is that Crazy Horse Bennet?

 

[Fuzzybabyducks]

dont ever get it in a car

 

[Steve-French]

I want to jump in the pit.

If a white dude does the same its called Racism?

Spoiler

Stole that one from the comment section

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

I was never a huge JP fan but was in the trenches at a lot of early 80's metal concerts.

Halford could sing through a fucking brick wall.
Tipton and Downing were great together

Thanks, that's fascinating.

What really surprises me is that the majority of them both survived and seem to have turned out all right.

It puts things in perspective; especially how we judge snowflakes..i mean young people today.

If we get to choose, I want to see Death Scream Bloody Gore/Leprosy era or Slayer. 80s Slayer shows sound like they were absolutely mental.

I recall a Halloween Slayer show, before it started the folks in the balcony were tossing trash onto the floor below, and the floor was throwing stuff back.
They were awesome, and then at midnight they performed the RIB album in its entirety.
It was glorious

You wouldn't do shit.

 

[Nihongi]

Bro, if that’s how you get down at shows then you deserve an ass beating, people don’t go to concerts to get fucking capoeira kicked in the face.
