site.btaJudas Priest Perform in Sofia on Friday
Over 8,000 people sang with Judas Priest at Arena Sofia on Friday night. Rob Halford and company treated their fans to an almost two-hour show.
The show started with Panic Attack from the band's current album Invincible Shield, which also bears the name of the tour, followed by 1982's You've Got Another Thing Comin' , Rapid Fire (1980), Breaking the Law (1980), Riding on the Wind (1982), Devil's Child (1982) and Sinner (1977). After Turbo Lover, an hour after the start of the concert, Rob Halford took the stage to make a kind of declaration of love. He called the audience amazing, and Sofia and Bulgaria beautiful. He thanked everyone who had helped Judas Priest succeed over the years and promised another visit.
The second part featured Invincible Shield from the new album, Victim of Changes (1976), a cover of Fleetwood Mac, The Green Manalishi, and Painkiller (1990). The audience was treated to three encores - Electric Eye (1982), Hell Bent for Leather (1978) and Living After Midnight (1980).
Before the headliners, who appeared nearly an hour earlier than the announced time (9:30 pm), the London heavy alternative rock band District 13 with Bulgarian participation presented their debut album Soma. District 13 consists of John Wilde (vocals/guitar), Alessio Barba (bass) and Asen Milushev (drums, backing vocals). The band combined heavy metal and punk, described as a cross between Black Sabbath and The Ramones. District 13 are known to the Bulgarian public from their participation in Hills of Rock in 2018 and 2022.
