Judas Priest and Uriah Heep showed the crowd of 5000 at the Abbotsford
Centre, just how it was done. Both bands are celebrating 50 years EACH of
doing their thing, with no stopping in sight. A little ringing in the ears
after Monday’s night’s show. However, the musicianship from both bands were
second to none. The old guys still know how to do it. Some of rockers are
pushing 70 !

Uriah Heep opened the show and with their 45 minute set, tried to blaze
through their half century of tracks. They didn’t disappoint, leaving
“Steelin” and Easy Livin'” for the last.

Priest on the other hand, are still touring on their 2018 album “Firepower”
and that irked more than a few fans. 8 tracks from the new album and light
on the classics, had a few grumbling as they left at the end of the night.

I believe Heep had a very good evening that night , might have a few Priest
fans thinking...,
