Title: Priest as a four piece?

This is a strange one, seems as though Priest have decided to let go of Andy Sneap (as a touring guitarist) and continue as a four piece, while they're not as reliant on guitar harmonies as much as Maiden would be, it still seems odd considering how many of their songs have trading solos, there will be a lack of heaviness during solos too due to no backing guitar.

Wonder what caused this decision as Sneap will still be producing the next album, and I'm sure they would have no difficulties finding someone else.

Strange one alright, I can't imagine it working at all. I was holding out for a solo date as I wasn't prepared to go to the Ozzy Osbourne show (and that's clearly never gonna happen anyway), but I'm fucked if I'm gonna fork out for a weak, watered down version of Priest.

In my view, they should call it ta fuck but I didn't care about the last album where I know a lot did. They've been cropping KK out of pictures that they post as well. Spastics.

How long before it ends up being Halford and a backing tape, with occasional guest appeartances by Tipton and Hill?

And then in 50 years it'll be a hologram of him and the tape deck ;D

I truly hope the hologram concert business does not take off. The problem is there are too many morons on this planet so it will definitely take off.

Looks like they've back-tracked on the whole decision again...

Wasn't there a Roy Orbison one a few years back? I remember seeing posters for it in the pale
