HOLLYWOOD—September is now to a close, many people are bidding farewell to the month and welcoming October with open arms. Some people think September was a great month, filled with warm weather, outdoor activities, and memorable moments!
Others are saying goodbye to September and hello to a new month, hoping it will bring positive changes and experiences. As October’s now here, people are excited about the upcoming fall season, with its vibrant colors, cozy atmosphere, and festive holidays. Some are looking forward to enjoying pumpkin spice and everything nice! Others are embracing the new month with optimism, hoping it will bring joy, peace, love and growth. Overall, the end of September marked a special moment for those who were at the Judas Priest and Alice Cooper concert at the PNC Arts Center in Holmdel, New Jersey on September 26, with Corrosion of Conformity as a special guest. The Corrosion of Conformity set the tone for the night. The sludge metal legends played songs mainly from their albums Wiseblood and Deliverance. Judas Priest was next on the bill.
The frontman Rob Halford appeared center stage. Gripping his microphone with both hands and taking a wide stance like, he was bracing himself from the power of his voice. The tribute photo to Ozzy Osbourne was touching. The setlist was a heavy dose of the album Painkiller including touch of Evil, Hell Patrol and Nightcrawler. Thanking the crowd for all the support throughout the years was touching.
A special ovation was reserved for Ozzy. Closing out the set was the guitar driven frenzy of Painkiller. Let’s not forget a giant Frankstein was on stage. For the next act, a large dark curtain covered most of the stage before dropping and revealing the band in silhouette and a large door with the inscription Alice Cooper’s attic. Once the door opened Alice Cooper could be seen skulking out of the fog towards the front of the stage. It surely was a theatrical music presentation, like a night at the rock opera. There were plenty of more moments of greatness throughout the night. All of these legendary artists gave their performances everything they had. It was a fantastic evening for their fans and a display of professional showmanship.
