Get ready, Judas Priest fans! The band has announced they will embark on one last world tour next year.

After being honored with a 2010 Grammy Award for best metal performance and performing with solo act Halford on the Ozzfest 2010 main stage over the summer, Rob Halford is ready to get back with the guys of Priest and tour the world one last time.

The “Epitaph” tour will hit all the major U.S. and European cities with many of the overseas dates already confirmed, including headlining spots at the Gods of Metal and High Voltage festivals in Milan and London.

In a backstage interview with WZLX producer Shawn Sixx at Ozzfest 2010 back in August at the Comcast Center, Halford spoke highly of the current metal scene and indicated he had no intentions of Ozzfest being his last tour.

And that was clearly the case! Priest is likely to head back to the Comcast Center, where they last rocked out for Ozzfest 2004. Six years later, Halford was back and hasn’t lost a single step!
