what bullsh1t is this? :-O
« on: May 06, 2011, 05:06:05 PM »
K.K. Downing press release

Dear friends,

It is with much regret that I will not be with you this summer. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your concerns about my health. Please rest assured that I am O.K.

There has been an ongoing breakdown in working relationship between myself, elements of the band, and the band's management for some time.

Therefore I have decided to step down rather than to tour with negative sentiments as I feel that this would be a deception to you, our cherished fans.

However I would urge you to please support the Priest as I have no doubt that it will be a show not to be missed.

All my love and respect,

KK Downing

Well I was thinking of going to see them again, but I think I'll pass if KK is not there. It just wouldn't be the same without the V off to the left of the stage.

Very odd indeed!  "Elements of the band".... I'm guessing it's not the rhythm section.....

Will they replace him for the gigs, I wonder?  Phil X might be available off the back of the Bon Jovi tour.  :lol:

KK has already been replaced by a guy called Richard Faulkner (who I sort of know from when he was in Dirty Deeds and Metalworx)

I must admit I've never heard of him, but he looks the part.

Cool guitar!  8)

Do people actually stand like that while they're playing? If so, why?

Richie is a big Zakk fan - and he used to play the Ozzy stuff really well in Metalworx

Not sure which axe he'll use in Priest

Very impressive, his Stairway solo is great. I must practice more.
I think I hate being indecisive.
