I saw JP a couple of times after Halford rejoined. The last time was when they toured performing all of British Steel. Halford didn’t move much for the songs from that album, hanging over his mic like a gargoyle.Rush: Snakes and Arrows Tour.
This was awesome - Rush is an awesome live band, as is well know, and they didn't disappoint.
Return to Forever: the anniversary tour - DiMeola, Corea, Clarke and White. It was amazing. Seeing Al's fingers blur when he did some Spanish guitar was unbelievable. Fusion Jazz isn't for everyone, but this was the best line up of one of the best bands, and each member a Legend on thier instrument.
Styx: Kilroy was Here. My first concert, and they opened and closed with movies - very cinematic. It was a concept concert based on a concept album. I really enjoyed it.
Jake Shimabukuro: Nice small venue - a couple thousand at most; outside. Very Intimate - and he was amazing.
Judas Priest: Defenders of the Faith tour. Indoor, couldn't see the other side of the arena for the smoke. Had someone ask me for some hash. (I was 17). The ultimate metal concert, and the band did not disappoint.
But once they moved on? He started using the whole stage.
That said, at no point was there any doubt as to the power of his lungs.
