Judas Priest have been announced as the official replacement for Ozzy Osbourne at this year’s Power Trip festival, joining AC/DC on Saturday, October 7, at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, CA. This three-day event, taking place on October 6, 7, and 8, will feature iconic bands Guns N’ Roses, Iron Maiden (Friday, October 6), AC/DC, Judas Priest (Saturday, October 7), Metallica and Tool (Sunday, October 8). Yesterday (10th), Ozzy revealed his decision to pull from the festival, promising his replacement to be his personal friends, and they will not disappoint. Judas Priest are definitely worth being placed on this bill, and we’re excited to see how the overall fest will pan out.
Judas Priest issued the following statement:
“Power Trippers are you ready for some Judas Priest style Heavy Metal…..!! Judas Priest are primed and proud to fly the flag for Heavy Metal at this prestigious festival…… We are ready to raise double horns way up high together keeping the metal faith at this ‘bostin’ one of a kind Power Trip world event….!”
