Barcelona Rock Fest 2022 : A Grand Finale with Kiss
The most anticipated day of the Barcelona Rock Fest arrived, featuring a headlining trio of Kiss, Judas Priest, and Megadeth. This stellar lineup, supported by numerous top-tier artists, enthralled fans in Santa Coloma, concluding the festival with a series of unforgettable performances that left attendees beaming with joy.
Highlights from the Rock Tent
Bullet, the Swedish heavy metal band, electrified the Rock Tent. After their first-day performance was canceled due to logistical issues, they returned to Santa Coloma de Gramanet with a vengeance. Despite competing with Megadeth's concurrent performance, Bullet drew a large, enthusiastic crowd. The band revisited their discography, focusing on their 2018 album 'Dust to Gold.' Led by Hell Hofer's powerful vocals and the dual guitar assault of Hampus Klang and Alexander Lyrbo, the setlist brought intense headbanging moments. Even without original guitarist Erik Almström, the solid performances by Gustav Hector (bass) and Gustav Hjortsjö (drums) ensured a memorable show, hinting at a promising future for the band.
Judas Priest's Electrifying Performance
Judas Priest took the stage later, delivering one of the festival's high points. Celebrating their "50 Heavy Metal Years" tour, they kicked off with "One Shot at Glory" from their legendary 1990 album, 'Painkiller.' Attendees were treated to a series of hits, including "Lightning Strike" and "You've Got Another Thing Comin'." The encore featured "The Hellion" and "The Electric Eye," culminating in a remarkable stage entrance by Rob Halford on a Harley Davidson and a surprise appearance by former member Glenn Tipton. Together, they closed their set with "Metal Gods," "Breaking the Law," and "Living After Midnight," leaving the crowd wanting more.
The Grand Finale with Kiss
The anticipation was palpable as the Kiss Army gathered before the main stage. With "Rock and Roll" playing over the PA, excitement built until "Detroit Rock City" burst onto the scene, kicking off the quintessential Kiss experience. The stage transformed with the drop of a curtain, revealing the band on raised platforms amidst a flurry of explosions. The energy continued with "Shout It Out Loud," while Gene Simmons wowed the crowd by spitting blood during "God of Thunder," performed from a high platform. Paul Stanley flew over the audience to a central platform for "Love Gun," one of many awe-inspiring moments leading to the concert's climax. "I Was Made for Loving You" and "Black Diamond" maintained the show's high energy, with Eric Singer's powerful vocals shining through. The emotional "Beth," complete with grand piano, highlighted the farewell sentiment. "Do You Love Me" added a playful touch with inflatable balls bouncing over the crowd, setting the stage for the final blowout of confetti and pyrotechnics during "I Wanna Rock and Roll All Night."
The Barcelona Rock Fest 2022 closed on a high note, leaving fans with lasting memories and an eagerness for next year's edition.
