		HRMG,  Regarding Sunday's post.  I know about trolls.  Have dealt with a couple myself. JD, I was soooo chill when I made that post fiddy cents owed me change! lol As for the whole KK being gone and Richie Faulkner playing dual to Glenn.  I simply don't see dual there.  I'm disappointed a different selection wasn't made.  To me, his style is so close to Glenn's there leaves no interest.  But that's my personal interpretation of what a JP twin axe attack should play like.  Don't know how better else to describe it. When I heard Rob left, I bought Jugulator "to support the band".  Wasn't 'til I watched Ripper do covers of old material that his style grew on me.  When Rob & the band reunited the synergy was there.  The JP magic was in the air!  No matter the strife backstage, in each personal camp. You're right.  Our support of this tour is important.  Fans should be able to come here and express their opinions without feeling their active status will be affected if  the core group allienates them because they ("true fans", new / old) express their opinions differently. The trolls ALWAYS rat themselves out.  For some reason they continue to get attention?!

KK is out. I understand but don’t fully understand. What I don’t understand is posts such as: “I can’t wait to see the new line up!” or “ KK is gone… deal with it”or “I don’t like KK gone but what can we do about it?”. Let me tell you about CRAP. This world would be covered in crap if someone didn’t say “I don’t like this crap and why can’t we just get this crap out of here?” The answer was pipes. I believe a pipe could work in this case of KK coming back to the band…a peace pipe. Just so you know… this may never happen since he retired on 4-20-2011.

What we can understand is world problems can be solved sometimes through diplomacy. I also have been told and believe that your vote makes a difference in a democracy. I also believe in the free trade market with the capitalist rule of supply and demand , that will and can, dictate the cause and affect/effect of a business. Judas Priest has become a business. When KK started the band Judas Priest it was a passion for music. We the fans listen to Judas Priest because of the music not the COST of the music. Now we are faced with buying what the Judas Priest business is trying to sell us. When we go to the store we don’t have to buy the cheapest bread they are selling. It is also said that Man does not live on bread alone. I don’t want Richie Sourdough. There is no way we should be paying full price for Judas Priest without KK or buying what JP management and Sony are selling us.

THE ONLY WAY I’M GOING TO BUT TICKETS TO THIS EPiTAPH TOUR IS: A) Ticket prices are at 1981 POINT OF ENTRY prices @ Long Beach Arena, CALIFORNIA,USA : Floor Seats $15.00USD; Loge Seats $12.00USD; Nose Bleed Seats $10.00USD. B) Ticket sales are so low because KK is not touring that they reduce the price 90% off or at 1981 tour schedule pricing and throw in discount coupons for JP paraphernalia.  Or finally C) KK Downing rejoins Judas Priest for the Epitaph Tour and I pay full Market Price.  

Sir Winston Churchill said something to the effect that  we will never surrender. I feel the same as Churchill and I will continue to complain and boycott the Epitaph Tour until KK rejoins the band. I’ll say it again, THERE IS NO WAY WE SHOULD BE PAYING FULL PRICE FOR JUDAS PRIEST TICKETS WITHOUT KK.  And don’t be sayin’… the cost has gone up because of having lasers and rental balloons from Pink Floyd via courtesy of Roger Waters. We don’t need that shit…WE NEED KK with IAN, ROB, GLENN, and SCOTT!
