AI notes: On October 2, 1982, Judas Priest headlined at Madison Square Garden in New York City as part of their World Vengeance Tour, with Iron Maiden as the opening act during their Beast on the Road Tour. This concert featured two of the most influential bands in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, delivering a high-energy performance to a packed venue. Judas Priest was promoting their album Screaming for Vengeance, with hits like “You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’,” while Iron Maiden showcased tracks from The Number of the Beast, including “Run to the Hills” and “Hallowed Be Thy Name.”
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
The Village Voice was an American counterculture newspaper known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse - a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history. It is quite common to find great political cartoons, satirical cartoons and articles, thought-provoking editorials, and ads and reviews for both concerts and theater productions - both on and off Broadway. Many iconic writers and musicians credit their appearance in The Village Voice for at least a portion of their success.
