a tt re SO Ge eres ami r Page 10 The Other Press by Karen Jung Judas Priest started and ended with a bang. This group played their high ener- gy music consistently and the crowd expected nothing less. They were over-anxious to see them and knocked over the‘fefices in front of the stage. People also lit fire- crackers and flares. Judas Priest put a lot of ex- plosions into their show, which was effective because Judas Priest Praised it reflected their music. The lead singer looked a little old to be singing in skin tight black leather, but did- n't seem to be lacking any energy as he kept the crowd entertained. The bassist was not as en- ergetic as the rest of the group, appearing only when the group first came on stage and when they took their bows. I think that Judas Priest put on a good show, but they over-used their echo system. Los Pops with Idol by Arthur Deluis Despite playing to only 500 people at the Commodore Ballroom on Monday night, Billy Idol and his four mem- ber back-up band delivered a well-paced, and, at times, electrifying performance.

During the last en- core, the lead singer rode his Harley Davidson from under the raised stage. The bike, I found out, is one of their trademarks, along with black leather. This concert not only kept me awake, but kept my attention. If you’re not afraid of people getting rowdy and even hurt, I recommend see- ing Judas Priest in concert. mention. All in all, an excell- ent show. Los Popularos opened for, Idol, and, despite the stan- dard muddy sound produced by back-up bands, they put on quite a good show. Be- sides cleaning up their sound, they should work on lessening their pauses be- tween songs, because bands tend to lose the attention of the audience when they wait so long between numbers. ] = C.G.
