From Loudersound.
Judas Priest have announced a 24-date US tour for later this year. The tour, under the banner ’50 Heavy Metal Years’, will kick off in Oxon Hill, MD. on September 9, and climax on October 17 at the Zappos Theatre in Las Vegas, NV.
Support on the tour will come from Swedish power metal heroes Sabaton.
“Judas Priest are primed and ready to deliver the goods with our 50 Heavy Metal Years’ anniversary celebration stage show spectacular,” say the band. “Performing a blistering cross section of songs from our lives in metal, we can’t wait to raise horns with you again at this once-in-a-metal-lifetime event.”
The dates come two weeks after the band’s European tour was announced. The European dates begin in Helsinki, Finland on May 30, and finish in Tilburg, Netherlands on July 28. The band also headline Bloodstock Festival in Burton-On-Trent, UK on August 9.
Earlier this month Priest guitarist Riche Faulkner revealed that the band had started work on their nineteenth album, and former guitarist KK Downing announced his new band, KK’s Priest.
