GLENN TIPTON Fires Back At K.K. DOWNING: 'His Accusations Have Gotten Sillier And Sillier'

Glenn Tipton has fired back at Kenneth "K.K." Downing, claiming that the former JUDAS PRIEST guitarist has been saying things about him that are "crazy" and "aren't fair." K.K. left PRIEST in 2011 amid claims of band conflict, shoddy management and declining quality of performance. In 2018...

Just wait a couple of days, and KK will SLAM Glenn's studio editing accusations. And then around we go.

K.K.: "Glen is a twat"
Rob: "What???"
 
As much as I love Glenn I wished he'd stayed out of it, ultimately he hasn't added anything except refuting everything Downing's said and just opened up the chance for KK to take more shots back. Don't feed the troll, Glenn.

The part about Glenn editing KK's solos is kind of interesting though. I feel that would've been a major point of contention, assuming KK did know about it. Has he ever mentioned it before?
 
Yes, KK talked about how he recorded an epic, long solo for Before the Dawn, but since Glenn said it could be a hit single Glenn decided to edit it down. That is the only thing though regarding solo edits, that KK has talked about anyway. The general practise of splicing solo parts together has been fairly common even way back (although it was more work and less precise obviously). So I mean, KK would be in good company.

Edit: I googled Peoria Civic Center, and wiki says: "As of 2013, seating capacity was 9,919 for hockey and indoor football, 11,433 for basketball and up to 12,036 for concerts."
From uploaded videos to me it doesn't look like 10 000 arena.

DOLLY PARTON 'Respectfully' Removes Herself From ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME Consideration

Dolly Parton has taken herself out of the running to be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame later this year. Earlier today, the 76-year-old country music legend asked the Hall to withdraw her name from the 2022 ballot, saying "I don't feel that I have earned the right." Parton was one...

It'd be pretty damn sad and funny if Dolly Parton is the reason Priest makes it into the RnR Hall of Fame.
