FREE JUDAS PRIEST TICKETS WITH ALBUM PURCHASE

From "the Gauntlet"


WANT A FREE LAWN TICKET TO SEE JUDAS PRIEST’S ‘METAL MASTERS’ TOUR? YOU MAY BE IN LUCK!


Yes, you did indeed read that right. While supplies last, when you
purchase any configuration (regular cd edition, limited edition-deluxe
hard-bound version and limited edition deluxe box ( 3LP's, 2 CD, book
and poster) available only at Best Buy) of the initial pressing of
Judas Priest’s double disc concept album, ‘Nostradamus’ (release date –
June 17th), specially marked CD’s will contain an insert with a
exclusive code inside the CD package for one free lawn ticket to see
Judas Priest on selected dates of the Metal Masters tour this summer,
courtesy of Live Nation (see below for a complete list). Visit
www.judaspriest.com for details on this special offer. This seemingly
too-good-to-be-true offer will be good while supplies last. Also, this
offer will not pertain to all the dates of the Metal Masters tour (see
below for complete list of dates that the offer is good for).

The Metal Masters tour will undoubtedly be the top metal concert
attraction of the summer. In addition to a headlining performance by
Judas Priest, fans will also be treated to sets by Heaven & Hell,
Motorhead, and Testament. “As ever, we look forward to screaming out
loud with our metal maniac fans when we hit the road,” enthuses Priest
singer, Rob Halford. “The Priest is back!”

The tour, produced by Live Nation, will be Priest’s first thorough sets
of U.S. dates in nearly three years, and will be in support of the
group’s aforementioned ‘Nostradamus’ release. Long in the works,
‘Nostradamus’ was recorded in the UK, and takes epic storytelling to a
whole new level, as it recounts the life of this mysterious,
world-known 16th century French prophet.
Some of the events that Nostradamus experts have interpreted as some of
his predictions include the great fire of London in 1666, the rise of
Adolf Hitler, and most recently, 9-11, among countless other renowned
events.

“For me, ‘Nostradamus’ has been a musical journey without comparison,”
adds guitarist KK Downing. “The intrigue and mystery that surrounds
this revered man has expanded my perception of heavy metal to the
highest plateau and enabled me to reach the outer limits of my
imagination and transport unique feelings and emotions to the
instrument that allows me to express myself.”

Praiseworthy advance reviews of ‘Nostradamus’ have only caused the buzz
to grow around Priest’s 16th studio release overall. Case in point, a
review by Eddie Trunk (host of the syndicated radio show ‘Eddie Trunk
Rocks’), in which he raved, “Priest touches on so much new ground and
really pushed the envelope on some things.

The album takes you on a nearly two-hour journey. It is without a doubt
best looked at as a complete work as all true concept albums are. You
can really see it living out on a stage. It sounds like Priest have
truly created something special and once again lived up to their
rightful billing as ‘Metal Gods’.”

As to why they chose to make a concept album about Nostradamus, Glenn
Tipton explains: “We didn't - he chose us. We feel it was meant to be!”

Soon, the Metal Gods will be destroying a concert stage near you.

I already have tickets for the Albuquerque show!

And i have tickets for the San Bernardino show (alot better than lawn too).

this sounds great.

Boo on that! I want the ticket that I get off of my Nostradamus album in Duluth, MN to get me into the Aug. 2 Minneapolis show. This is lame. The Midwest is always getting screwed, one show in Illinois. Blah!


I'm looking forward to the new album though and maybe tix won't be that expensive, I mean come on Judas Priest, Testament, Motorhead and Heaven & Hell...dream line-up if I've ever heard of one.

I got tickets already as well to see Metal Masters tour. I read too that Best Buy will also have tickets for anyone who buys the album, but theres a catch. Theres only 2 tickets available in each store, so if you get it from Best Buy you better be there before they open.

Well that's a pisser, I already spent the majority of my paycheck and won't be able to purchase the album til Friday .

I may still try and see if I can just buy a ticket (their only $30-50 on Ticketmaster-for the Dallas show anyway).

Best buy will probably still have a few of the free tix version on Friday - I don't expect this album to debut at # 1 on the billboard charts!

Yea I dont think it will be #1 on the charts either. I'll probably get mine in the mail today since I pre ordered it a while back.

Niether do I but with only two tickets per store, I don't fancy my chances.

EF Judas Priest. they aren't even coming to Tucson.

I believe that there is a code that you get inside the cd package that you have to enter probably at the bands website or something and print off your ticket, kind of like if you bought Ozzy's "Black Rain" album last year it came with a code so you could print off your free Ozzfest ticket.

The Best Buy I went two during my lunch break (Reston, VA) had way more than 2 copies of the CD with the free ticket - closer to 30.

The cashier selling me my CD tried to upsell me to the $65 (at least that was Best Buy Price) leather bound CD/LP version

I got 2 cd's. But I could only print one copy, since the other friend didn't want to answer the phone. : So when he tried to get his ticket, they where already gone.

At least I got one, it means I have my ride to the show

Sweet. That's all I can say, sweet.

Hmmm... http://www.livenation.com/judaspriest

Where the heck do I enter my code at?

select 1 "metal master" ticket - it will give you a chance to enter the code at "payment" time. I had a hard time figuring it out earlier.

Thanks!

Got my copy of Nostradamus in the mail today.

If anyone needs an extra ticket for one of the Priest shows, here is my code thingy...

Maybe I'll see you there.

I'll be at the Alb. Show too. This is going to be the tour of the year. Really looking forward to it

i wish i lived in america. in england we had one measly judas priest concert this year. fortunatley i went to see it! they were awesome but the metal masters looks way cool

The ticket is useless to me as they are not coming anywhere near me.

Got my ticket, some binoculars (lawn seats), and (by then) money for t-shirts. Also when the day comes, since the tickets come from Live Nation there is a special line that bypasses the people who didn't get the free ticket.
