Neah,I understand what you are saying and I also respect it spapad but everybody is different and to me I can't stand to see this band live again,the last time I saw them it was 1988 Ram It Down tour as they didn't come to Seattle for the Painkiller tour,and thats the last time I saw them.
I just can't stomach seeing them live without a new studio album to go with it,I just can't do it at all. So this is it for me. My memories of my favorite band are from 1980-1981 to 2005-2007 the end of The Angel Of Retribution tour,thats it for me. I don't like the band that much at all from 2008 -2011...I just don't. They watered themselves out of "Judas Priest" in my opinion and its too much of a tease to see them live knowing they could of easily released one more killer album. I do hope you enjoy the live show next year,but I've just buried this band in my mind.....they are "dead".

Go see them live one last time. They are an excellent live band. We can't help that they are retiring. At least they are going out before they look like Mick Jagger and company.

Well its just bullshit the way Halford explained and kind of let us to belive that we would be getting "great" news in December and now this shit? Are you fucking kidding me? Jesus Christ whats wrong with this band? Its not that hard to go into the studio and record another album...oh forget it,its just as best they give up,like Necroticist said the last album by Priest and the last 2 from Halford are crap so just stop the bleeding already.
I was stupid to think that the new Halford was talking about would be news of a new studio album but silly me. I can't get around it,no matter how hard I try .....I just can't stand this band after the year 2005....I'll give it to the end of the Angel Of Retribution tour so after 2007...this band is 100% "shit". I'm gald all of you have good attitudes and will see the band live again,but not me. I'm a studio album fan not a live show fan so for me the buck stops here unfortunately.
Oh well,at least Motorhead and Saxon are still "kick ass" and Motorhead is releasing thier 20th studio LP and Saxon is releasing thier 19th studio album,while Judas Priest will be stuck at 16 albums with Nostradamus being the final curtain? WOW. A classic "heavy metal" band going out on a sour note like nostradamus is "weak" its "sad" and its "pathetic". Judas Priest will always still be my favorite band but not after 2005,thats for sure. "SIGH" yet again.

I'm crushed but not angry. Should have waited for this news to settle in on me before commenting. Didn't see it till I got home today.
I'm going to see them, no doubt. I'm probably being selfish wanting one last beast from the Priest, but it is sad news.

I share you sense of being let down. I really thought, they would give us one last new album before they called it quits. They have released countless greatest hits. I have to admit that reading the announcement was very disheartening. What ever happened to going out with a bang?
I will go see them one last time as I want to take Flora along with me and let her enjoy them. Heh, at least she wont have to learn any new songs. I just can't believe this is the way they chose to call it quits. Very UNJUDAS PRIEST OF THEM.
Like you said, maybe we don't know all the reasons for this decision, but for most diehard fans, we are going to feel let down by this.

Well Hellrider,I do thank you (and I speak for all of us here I belive) for lifting our spirits up as much as you could these last 3 years after the release one of the band's crappiest albums,you've givin us hope when the guys in Priest have NOT. For this I hail you as the best Judas Priest supporter I have ever known.
Unfortunately Nostradamus will be Judas Priest's last studio album and I for one am shocked with utter disappointment and will "NOT" see the band live if I was paid to. I don't give a rats ass about live shows anyways,I have always been a fan of studio records and now we will not be fucking getting one from our favorite band of all time.
I for one think its utterly fucking "SAD" that this band with all this talent is giving up and throwing in the towel while I'll bet the "Halford band" will keep recording bullshit. So be it,this year has been one shit year and why not end it with this shit news? "SIGH". Fuck the "Epitaph" tour....what a "tease" to see them on stage with energy just to know they aren't gonna record us a blistering heavy metal album.
I Know that there may be other reasons behind the scenes but going out on Nostradamus is totaly 100% fucked and its bullshit and I will forever be pissed off at this band for doing this crap. This isn't how a "heavy metal" band should go out.
WHY IN THE FUCK DIDN'T THEY JUST RETIRE AFTER ANGEL OF RETRIBUTION???? WHYYYYYY??? I can accept that they are retiring but couldn't these lazy bastards give us one more fucking studio album to go out on? Nooooooo they have to tour again....well fuck that,the last time I saw Judas Priest live it was 1988 Ram It Down tour and that is the last time I'll see them. I ain't going to see some farewell tour without an album to go with it,so count me fucking OUT.
At least I still have Motorhead and Saxon...both are releasing.......fucking drum roll please.............BAM! "STUDIO ALBUMS"!!! Motorhead is releasing "The World Is Yours" in January 26th 2011 and Saxon is releasing a brand new studio album in March 2011 with out a title yet but they are in the studio right now probably scratching thier heads wondering why Judas Priest is retiring.
