Judas Priest?

Win

Live tracks?

Fail

[DarkEternal37]

I love the Priest we have, but a full CD of live tracks isn't really something that I'll get excited about. Good thing we have RBN.

Live tracks?

Fail

That's why I shuddered.

I knew that would be the first thing posted. Anyways, for the record, its British Steel, for the 30th Ann., all live tracks, doesn't say when or where.

meh. Here's hoping for various singles in addition to this. Otherwise, the no-dlc streak will continue for me.

It specifically says in the article that it's coming to Rock Band on May 11.

Hmph... my curiosity and interest in tomorrow has been lost. Unless there's more we don't know about. I was so hoping my 3.5 months of lack of regular DLC was going to break for good. (been nit picky and got few the past couple weeks, but nothing exciting).

LIVE TRACKS!? They better be from the 80's *shakes fist*

rt footage of the 16-song set from the 2009 British Steel tour

2009 tour!? ;_______; DAMN MAN, this is all your guys fault who are all up on live tracks. I hope they're good...

[BonE74Me]

Might just cherry pick a couple of these. I would've downloaded the entire album if they weren't live tracks. I guess we'll wait and see, but thus far the "live" JP material has been pretty meh.

Feh.
