Why don't you leave this forum and never come back. If the band makes you want to barf all over your laptop,then why not leave? I've been into Judas Priest as my all time favorite band since 1981 and I fully support the band going forwards without K.K. Downing,just because he chose to leave the band doesn't mean Rob, Glenn and Ian aren't "Judas Priest" anymore,thats bullshit.
K.K. left...so what...if it bothers you this much then don't come here anymore I mean whats the point? You posting here for the next 2 years whining about K.K. not being here isn't going to bring him back,hes gone,kaput,goodbye. I love Mr. Downing and he is the spirit of Priest,but he is not 100% Judas Priest,Rob,Glenn and Ian are "Judas Priest" too.
Not trying to compare Saxon to K.K. Downing,but when Graham Oliver left Saxon in 1995 Saxon fans thought the sound would be destroyed,but they got Doug Scaratt and in my opinion Doug fits in Saxon better than Oliver did,but I don't think Faulkner fits "better" than K.K. I'm not saying that,but the "sound" and albums may be better with Faulkner than the Nostradamus album "with K.K.".
K.K. leaving the band in my opinion is a blessing in disguise because had he stayed the band would be ruined and we would never get another studio album. Wait untill the next LP is released,you may be eating your words.
