Yeah, I know. But then again, I remember them saying that they never want to put on a bad show, ever. So I understand why they want to retire from touring. I don't think any of us have a problem with that and completely understand. It HAS to be difficult to tour the schedule that they do! It's the question of "is Priest done for good?" or is it just the end of touring that they don't really answer. Will there be more albums to come? I certainly hope so because they have a lot left in them I think. When Rob says that they have more to say, I hope he means song writing and not another "big announcement".

That Muhammad Ali Statement made them sound like they are on their last legs and just wheel up the walkers and wheelchairs after a show.
I still wonder.................What happened?

And whats funny is what Halford says about the Muhammad Ali syndrome: "If you get in the ring too much,the whole thing can become really sad to look at and to listen to and you have to ensure that doesn't happen as a musician,especially in the extreme world of heavy metal".


And I'm thinking : "But Rob,K.K. and Glenn....thats what you just did with the Nostradamus album and tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"    With his comments,wouldn't you think that they would want to create something fucking "heavy" while they are pushing 60 years old to go out ontop with?? I think the guys in Priest are "losing it" Guido.....somebody needs to get ahold of K.K. and Glenn and wake them the fuck up!!

This announcement does NOT leave me with a warm, fuzzy feeling.

ROB HALFORD On JUDAS PRIEST's Farewell Tour: We Want To Leave On Respectable Terms - Dec. 16, 2010
George Varga of SignOnSanDiego.com recently conducted an interview with JUDAS PRIEST/HALFORD frontman Rob Halford. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.

SignOnSanDiego.com: Does it feel like the start of a new chapter with the second decade of the HALFORD band starting, and the looming end of an old chapter, with JUDAS PRIEST having recently announced its farewell tour in 2011?

Halford: I suppose the way I perceive my life as a musician is that I'll just continue doing what I've always done. Of course, the bulk of my metal life has been with JUDAS PRIEST, and, yes, we are making this farewell tour next year and probably into 2012. But we do have a few more things we want to say. What we'd rather do, for the time being, is let this information settle, because its very big news for a lot of fans. So, we want to let the firestorm settle down. For all intents and purposes, it is the farewell tour.

SignOnSanDiego.com: Why?

Halford: I don't know, really. It really is for a lot of reasons. I suppose retirement or slowing down, if you want to call it that, I don't know. I think you have to face mortality, that's for sure. Some bands keep going and going, some bands ease off a bit, and some bands stop altogether. It happens to all bands, eventually, and now this is something we're facing in JUDAS PRIEST. So, what we want to do is leave on what we feel are respectable terms, musically.

SignOnSanDiego.com: But JUDAS PRIEST is still playing well and sounding good and continues to be popular around much of the world. Why quit now?

Halford: It's what I call the "Muhammad Ali syndrome." If you get in the ring too much, the whole thing can become really sad to look at and listen to. And you have to ensure that doesn't happen as a musician, especially in the extreme world of heavy metal, because it's very demanding to carry these old bodies all over the place. You try to do the things you could easily do 30 years ago and it's not so easy. What we would like our fans to do is consider that this something to celebrate and not feel sad or depressed about. It won't be all over in a flash.

SignOnSanDiego.com: Does this mean you'll be cutting back from performing with the HALFORD band, too?

Halford: I don't really know. Again, in regards to the comment I made regarding making sure you can go into it and give the kind of performance you do, without letting the fans down — I'm having a great time. Vocally, I'm very strong; I have a lot of energy and I'm doing all the things that are important. So, it's only right to treat both bands respectfully and differently. So, my intention, no matter where I go and what I do, is to keep making metal on personal level.

Just saw this and thought it was great that Priest got mentioned!

Let's take a moment to get inside Brad Pitt's pants, shall we?

For a man, leather pants are usually best reserved for those occasions when your metal band is finally getting its shot to open for Judas Priest.

Hey Nostradamus contained just about every single music outing Priest has ever done. Except like Point of Entry and Turbo haha. Plus it covered some new ground as well, as most Priest records do. It is a VERY metal record.

Lets hope they completely forget about Nostrasamus and move on to record a real Heavy Metal cd that contains a metal swagger like "Painkiller" or "Unleashed in the East". And not wait two or four years from now to release it. Ha!

As for the tour dates? I would assume its a European tour, mainly festivals in the late spring and summer. They all talked about bringing the British Steel tour to Europe. Maybe it'll finally happy? Maybe they'll finally do a Nostradamus show or two?!?!? :D:D
[Head banger] Saturday, November 27, 2010 8:47:06 AM 
hope so, but I doubt it.

I think that sounds promising not only for a tour (NZ please!) but new music. Fingers crossed!

I hope by this sentence we may be able to expect some new music. Too much to ask?
