Setlist + Video – Judas Priest Kick Off ‘Invincible Shield’ Tour

Judas Priest opened their Invincible Shield world tour in Glasgow Monday night (March 11), delivering an 18-song set. You can see the full setlist and fan-shot video of the show below.

The band opened with the live debut of “Panic Attack” from their new studio album Invincible Shield and later performed two more new tracks, “Trial by Fire” and the title track.

Among a stack of classics, Priest revisited “Love Bites” and “Saints in Hell,” which they had not performed live since 2015 and 2019 respectively. The show ended with a double-whammy encore of “Hell Bent for Leather” and “Living After Midnight.”

“We’ve been banging away for two weeks in this rehearsal facility… And I tell you, the new set is absolutely lethal,” lead singer Rob Halford said in a recent interview with Tales from the PowerAge.

Declining to reveal details before the Glasgow show, he explained: “One of the joys about this band is we try and keep that little bit of mystery, because when we were in the early years… you really only had limited information for your fans, and I think that added a little bit of kind of a mystery to who you were.

“Now, of course, it’s a whole different thing. Everybody wants to know what you had for breakfast. What kind of toilet paper did you use? So we’ll save that… But it’s a killer show with a great new stage set [and there’s] a wonderful team of people with us working again.”

Released on March 8, Invincible Shield is Priest’s 19th studio album. It was once again produced by Andy Sneap, the band’s touring guitarist since Glenn Tipton’s health issues meant he had to come off the road. He remains an artistic contributor to the group, with co-writing credits across the album.
