WOW!! Who's angry face is that? Looks a bit like Plato. :think:

WOW!! Who is that angry face? Looks a bit like Plato.

Since their last album was titled "Nostrodamus" I'm going to assume thats who it is.

[emperor_black]

Ah! Makes sense. I've not listened to that album. Is it any good compared to Angel? I liked the latter a lot.

Links to all this please?

It's on Metal Sludge or you can Google it for yourself. I read this there with links to K.K.'s statement, then Rob's, within 24 hours of the initial announcement. You'll have to sign up at Sludge to read the forums, but I imagine you could Google the statements yourself, or go to K.K.'s and Rob''s respective websites.

1) Is Metal Sludge a good source?

2) "Who's face is that"? FFS.

3) Nice guitar, shit album.

[toejam]

You got it. I finished this up about 2 weeks before the announcement was made. Bummer.

With a guitar like that, you'd think one would be able to predict what was going to happen! :idea:

Ar, ar!

Nostradamus wasn't into Priest. Although, he supposedly did predict Loomis would quit nevermore.

It's a pretty good source. It's common knowledge that KK and Ian formed the band. It's also common knowledge that Glenn has been fucking the manager Jayne Andrews for quite awhile. Take that info, read K.K.'s own statement about quitting and Rob's statement confirming that what K.K. said was true and draw your own conclusions. Other than that, I am not your Internet valet.

Love Priest, probably in my top 3 bands ever.

I can understand KK feeling dicked over by some bandmates/management, but he basically then turned around and fucked over all the Priest fans from the last 20, 30 and 40 years by keeping it quiet while they bought up farewell tour tickets.

Just as classless on his part IMO.

I could picture Oasis pulling something like this but not Priest.

Could be he was afraid of being sued by the others if he torpedoed
their farewell tour at the last minute? Or maybe they offered him a
"go away" package if he kept his mouth shut?
