Judas Priest had to postpone dates on their 50th-anniversary tour after guitarist Richie Faulkner suffered an acute cardiac aortic dissection (his aorta ruptured) during the band's performance at the Louder Than Life festival. Thankfully, he's okay and the band have announced a new run of rescheduled dates.
Queensryche will open the shows. While Queensryche were originally scheduled to open for Scorpions on their Las Vegas residency, they have pulled out and will be replaced by Skid Row.
Here are the dates, with more promised to be announced soon.
