Which songs did Alice Cooper and Judas Priest play in Phoenix? Complete setlist explored

On Wednesday, October 22, 2025, Alice Cooper and Judas Priest brought their co-headlining tour to the Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre in Phoenix, Arizona. For frontmen of both bands, Cooper and Rob Halford, it was a homecoming. The show was one of the most talked-about nights of the fall rock calendar as it brought together one of the most beloved acts of shock rock and the metal outfits of Birmingham.

Alice Cooper and Judas Priest's co-headlining run kicked off in September 2025. Together, Rock & Roll Hall of Famers delivered a memorable performance in Phoenix.

The tour has been dubbed the Shield of Pain Tour. It started on September 16, 2025, in Biloxi, Mississippi, and will run through October 26, 2025, in Houston, Texas. Corrosion of Conformity are supporting on select dates.
