The fans of Judas Priest were in for a disappointment as the heavy metal band announced the cancellation of their upcoming stop on the Invincible Shield Tour in the US. This news came just a few hours before they were scheduled to take the stage. The band, consisting of Rob Halford, Ian Hill, Glenn Tipton, Scott Travis, and Richie Faulkner, has been on tour across the US to promote their latest album, Invincible Shield. They have already performed in Phoenix, Las Vegas, LA, Reno, and Portland, and were supposed to perform in Sugar Land, Houston tonight.
Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, the band had to cancel the show and they took to social media to inform their fans. In their statement, they expressed their regret for having to scrap the gig and assured that refunds will be available for those who have already purchased tickets. They also advised fans who have bought tickets from third-party resellers to reach out to their point of purchase for a refund. As for the remaining dates on their US tour, there have been no changes so far and they are set to perform in Austin on Thursday and Dallas on Saturday.
Judas Priest, who first formed in 1969, have come a long way and have established themselves as one of the greatest heavy metal bands in the world. They gained recognition with the release of their debut album, Rocka Rolla, in 1974 and have since dropped several successful albums like Killing Machine, Screaming for Vengeance, Ram It Down, Turbo, and Redeemer of Souls. Their latest album, Invincible Shield, was released earlier this year and has been topping charts all over the world.
In a recent interview, lead singer Rob Halford talked about their extensive history and the special place Texas holds in their hearts. He mentioned that when they first came to America in the late 70s, Texas already knew about them and their music. He also expressed his gratitude towards the fans in Texas for their unwavering support throughout the years. He believes that their latest tour has been a huge success due to the resurgence of interest in heavy metal and the loyal fanbase that has been with them since the beginning.
Rob also talked about the band's excitement and joy at being able to perform for their fans and how they feel honored to still be relevant in the music industry after all these years. He credited this to the constant love and support from their fans and the fact that they continue to evolve and create music that resonates with their current audience. As they continue to rock out on their Invincible Shield Tour, the band is grateful for the opportunity to share their journey with their fans and create new memories together.
