Judas Priest plays "Night Crawler" at PNC Bank Arts Center (Holmdel, NJ - Sept. 26, 2025)
Ian Hill has announced his retirement, with Judas Priest moving forward with a new bassist. As sad as it is to see Ian go (though great it's on his terms), I'm glad the band will continue on. Even after seeing Judas Priest multiple times over the past 20+ years, I still cannot get enough of them live. And as Rob Halford and co proved just over a year ago at the PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ, they've earned their keep as Metal Gods and then some.
Here's a clip of them at that Sep 26, 2026, show playing "Night Crawler" (my favorite song off my favorite Judas Priest album 'Painkiller')!
Bonus Fact/Humble Brag - at the end of the clip is a picture of me meeting Judas Priest during their SiriusXM Town Hall back in March 2018. Minutes prior, I actually got to ask Halford a question on-air about what inspired his singing style... but thats a story for another time (😉).
