Yeah, he does. Although I've read peoples reviews of shows and he does swear during some Priest shows too, more than just saying Judas F'ing Priest. I've been at shows where he has mouthed F' Yeah a lot, but doesn't say it into the mic. It might depend on how young the crowd is?

The only Priest album that I have ever put on and was disappointed in was Turbo. The only song on that album that I like is "Out In The Cold" - which is a GREAT opening number. So for me, it's a tie between Jugulator and Turbo. (Quoting Message by soccer star from Sunday, January 30, 2011 11:11:21 AM)

Jugulator and Demolition are bottom of my list.There were Afew good track's but even Glen said Jugulator was Priest trying to be something they were not.
Demolition was a bit better but suffered cus Halford wasn't there to give his songwriting input. |

Here here. I agree, don't own either and don't really plan to for exactly the reasons you stated.
I thank Ripper also for filling in but he is no Rob. Thus, not Priest.

| That's easy - "Ram It Down". That's not counting the Ripper years cause I don't consider that Priest. Although, "Lost And Found" off the Demolition album was pretty cool. |
