K.K. should pick up his phone and call Rob and Glenn and get this handled! Man it sounds like K.K. has got his passion for Judas Priest back and THAT is the game changer... if he's feeling it then Rob should pick up his phone and call Ken.... guido yes....hellrider's K.K. come back,3 axe attack!! Ha ha!
If Glenn can still do studio work then Rob K.K. Glenn and Ritchie could write another album and have it pumped with solos with all 3 guitarists,and have K.K. and Ritchie tour and finish thier career off for the legacy. This can happen. Especially if K.K.Downing's heart and soul is into this. I'm hoping K.K. comes back to Judas Priest.

Well, I can't think anything ill of 1/2 of the guitar gods. Like I said, who knows the dynamics, really? Just ME being selfish in wanting KK to have been asked and to have seen him again with Priest. Like you say, would he have turned them down? Dunno. Would that have prevented Glenn from possibly making an appearance? Dunno. Hellrider's (lol) "Three axe attack?!" (lord...) I sure hoped not!
I am DAMN thankful for the album about to be dropped in our laps! I laugh now as I have, what, four versions coming? Two LPs (autographed and non), hardcover CD and digital. Yeeehaw! Yeah, I'm buying KKs book too. Priest Priest Priest!
Guido I agree....i would love for Priest right now to be Glenn K.K and Ritchie...but I don't think K.K was ever interested .... I seriously think he just wanted to be asked but Rob already said before he will NEVER pressure K.K to come back in the band out of respect so not sure WHAT his complaints are. But I do agree it would of been nice to see K.K and Ritchie

Pretty shitty of K.K to pop up with this horse shit 10 days before the Firepower album is released? And with his book coming out this year? Notice he mentioned he made the right decision to retire cause nobody appreciates him.... why would Rob and Glenn call him and ask him anyways? He's already bitching how Ritchie is a clone of himself
(I can see why cause Jane is the one who wants it to look visually this way as nothing has changed from a glance which I disagree on...I thought Ritchie looks too close to Kks image and thought he should not have the leather vest and flying V but he was told too)
Makes me think he would be a dick to Ritchie anyways. What a punch in the face to Glenn....I'll bet he claims Glenn's playing was getting shitty cause of Parkinson's disease yet we all saw Glenn live...so has Eddie Trunk multiple times and he said Glenn sounded fine. The Battle Cry DVD 2015 he was excellent.
Idk I just think it's a low blow by K.K to air their dirty laundry in front of us fans 10 days before we are getting a new album.
[guidogodoy] Tuesday, February 27, 2018 8:26:05 PM
Could be right, JD. I still think it would have been cool to have asked him. Pipe dream, of course. After all, who knows the dynamics of the band really?
Selfish. I would have loved seeing KK with Priest again!
Blabbermouth.com has K.K. Downing saying he is "shocked and stunned" he wasn't asked to join the band to step in for his role.... and says because he wasn't asked proves he was unappreciated?
He has a book coming out this year.... I wonder if this is just to throw dirty laundry out as a efff you to Rob and Glenn. I personally am grabbing at straws but I think he wanted to be asked for the simple satisfaction of saying "NO".

Traitor's Gate sounds fantastic, too! You know, I think the boys are pouring every drop of creative juice they've got into this album. After all, this may well be their last with Glenn being an active member of the band. We should seriously be hearing a shitload of true "firepower" from every song in this album. Won't be long now!
Vail there's another samplw clip on youtube "Traitors's Gate" which sounds fuckin incredible. Shit ... this could be equal to any Classic Priest album as their best? Idk.... I predict EVERY song on the album is going to be kick ass!

Well... I didn't think I could watch a Priest show without Glenn but I just couldn't" not go" ...how selfish of ME I thought. I let my emotions cloud my thinking. Now that I have my tickets I fucking can't wait to see the band! Another thing to think about is that Rob said Glenn CAN still PLAY the guitar just not live. So perhaps he can still write and record the next Judas Priest studio album? You never know... if he records solos of his now and record his riffs right now for a next L P the band could record theirs 2 years from now and we'd have Glenn on the album. THAT wouldbe awsome,however if FIREPOWER is the last album THAT is ok too... it's just awesome that there is a new Judas Priest album going to be released in a little over 3 weeks.
[guidogodoy] Wednesday, February 14, 2018 12:17:08 AM
I hereby judge you: eloquent! VERY well-said. You manage to put into words what I certainly think.
The man said that he wished Priest to continue with the tour? I feel privileged to be able to attend.
At the risk of getting judged by all the "veterans" here, I'll say my piece regarding Glenn's (not so) recent diagnosis.
My heart sank upon reading the news Monday morning, Then it really hit me earlier today. Parkinson's? Damn. That's fucked up. Terrible disease. Reading that article about the moment when Glenn realized that he couldn't perform anymore, and having to admit it, nearly brought me to tears. It's amazing, though, that despite the diagnosis, Glenn kept playing live and cranking out a couple of great albums for the past 10 YEARS, and in all the tours in which I had seen him w/ JP in the past decade, he NEVER slowed down. He NEVER faltered. He gave 110% onstage, and you could tell that his heart was in the music, in the band, and in his fans. It's practically mindblowing. Shit. He is a TRUE Metal God.
Glenn, you are amazing. As if the music you created w/ JP over the past 4 decades and your influence in the genre weren't enough, you powered through with this illness for as long as you could so that we may enjoy as much Judas Priest-style Heavy Metal with you as possible. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am simply not worthy.

I am not changing plans. HOPE to see Glenn if even onstage for that one last time with Priest. Heck, I wouldn't even think of said "easy songs" where he might appear as "throwaways" anymore. I would have done the same for KK.

I will go and see them,I don't know where but it will be a trip now it will be bittersweet as now maybe they will add more tour dates because Glenn has stepped down, but I agree last album as we have known Preist for 28 years,, I hope it free's the rest up to do solo projects, would love some more Halford albums, Posting as Acolyte

guido since I can't post anywhere else but in newbie threads I'll post it here... Yea I just clicked onto Blabbermouth.com and read the news about Glenn. Parkinson's disease. This explains why we haven't seen too many interviews with him. And why he seemed a little slower at speech 4 years ago.
No tour with Glenn. I'm so glad he's on the album though. I must say .... without Glenn and K.K..... I can't see this tour. I saw Glenn play live in 2014 and he was absolutely incredible!! No disrespect to Andy Sneap... but I can't see them live without Glenn.
I think they should cancel all tours and let us just enjoy the Firepower album. Well we definitely know THIS is the last album.... it is what it is guys. We are lucky to even have a new album at all so we will just be glad for what we have
All things come to an end and I think it's time to do so. We love ya Glenn!!!

I couldn't agree with you more! Yes I'd put Lightning Strike as song #1 too...but yes Firepower is excellent!! guido on Firepower is the main guitar solo starts with Ritchie but is that Glenn in the middle to the end of the solo?
[guidogodoy] Friday, February 02, 2018 10:41:03 PM
ZACTLY! Just heard it on YouTube after listening to the lossless version (flac) that I downloaded earlier. I must say, looking at "Firepower" with TWO songs in it now in the digital album has me really stoked!
I am just floored. This type of music can ONLY come from Priest!! Just blowing me away from the beginning 'till end of their incredible career. Ok, all "fanboy" stuff aside? Both quality tunes worthy of a Priest album. To me? I'd put "Lightning Strike" before "Firepower." Melody? Guitar? Perhaps the way Halford spits out "COLLUSION!" lol
@guido .... YouTube has it and also Blabbermouth.com ....already it's overwhealmingly getting positive reviews for the Song Firepower but there's those fucking whiners ....blah blah blah it's not Priest blah blah blah it sounds like solo Halford blah blah blah bullshit!!!!!
If they fucking released THE SENTINEL people would bitch at that too!! It's a joke....
Firepower is classic Judas Priest like Freewheel Burning and Painkiller. How can any true Priest fan NOT like it?

Its not a real great comparison. CFL is 8-11 teams depending on the year. steady at 9 now. Anthony Calvilo had 8 apearances, 3-5
cant find older records, the other unfair bit is the CFL is older.
Yawns?? Lol There's NOTHING bigger of more importance the the Super Bowl ha!
Brady is the best quarter back in the history of the NFL. I don't think even any Canadian CFL QB has accomplished more,not even Warren Moon.
8th Super Bowl appearances..... "8" it's just unreal sounding. Has any Q.B. in the CFL made it to 8 Grey Cup appearances? Wondering....Im doubting it without even Google search.

8 Super Bowl appearances!!! Fuckin a guido yeah it's crazy. Brady has played 16 seasons (he was injured first play of the 2008 season and out for the entire season)... out of 16 seasons HALF of his Career he's played in the Super Bowl! Damn dude that's insane.
People are crying "the league is fixed & rigged"....uh....ok,then Brady is the best and has the best accuracy throwing the ball(inflated or deflated ha) then anybody has ever seen in this RIGGED league.
Forget the wins,loses,Super Bowls... it's a TEAM sport,Brady is a part of a TEAM.... they win together they lose together...but inbetween it all...numbers don't lie and are not fixes or rigged...Tom Brady has the best stats than any other quarter back in the NFL's HISTORY.
Even snot shithead knows it even though how pathetic and foolish he knows he looks and is,he knows it.just like the rest of the world full of NFL fans know it. Lol!!!
