Imo, Priest stage set suffers from small budget. Attendance of their shows is diminishing.

Ian Hill says, “KK playing with us could bring us back together, or, completely tear us apart again.”
In other words,
“It is what it is.”

LES BINKS Says JUDAS PRIEST Will Perform With Three Guitarists And Two Drummers At ROCK HALL Induction Ceremony
In a new interview with Finland's Chaoszine, former JUDAS PRIEST drummer Les Binks spoke about the band's upcoming induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET) "The category that they put the band in, it looked like we weren't actually gonna be...

Priest will have 8 minute slot and they will do a medley. Rob, Ian, Glenn, KK, Richie, Scott and Les Binks.
Richie will also be playing (although he will not be inducted), so Judas Priest with 3 guitars (and 2 drummers)!

Sadly, based on the lesser frequency of his concert appearances, my guess is Richie will be mostly covering Glenn’s parts with the latter guitar only turned on sporadically.

I think you're right. It will be interesting if we'll see some solos (from KK and Glenn, I guess) because 8 minutes long medley is too short. To see KK with the band again even for just a few minutes will be special.

I saw two of the Firepower shows. The first one when they opened for Deep Purple and it was absolutely stellar! The setlist was packed with great tunes, the band sounded great, and they seemed fired up.
The second round was a headlining set with a ton of deep cuts and everything just seemed a bit cheap. The band, other than the guitarists who were giving it their all, seemed tired.
I saw them I think in 2018, could’ve been early 19. That was kind of my takeaway too except Richie Faulkner seemed like the star of the show while Andy Sneap didn’t really seem to know how to act on stage (plus it seemed like Faulkner was playing most of the leads at this point). Having at least one original guitarist to play off of Richie + bring some more stage presence would go a long way IMO.

Also, KK back in the band would mean more ticket sales, which could mean Priest playing bigger venues.

I'm mostly curious to hear Richie's solos and the structure of the songs (especially if he's the main songwriter).

This will be cool. I find most supergroups to be pretty tame in the songwriting department (except for Sons of Apollo), but Faulkner + Travis and a young Dio clone singing? I'm onboard.
Oh yeah, and for some reason Rex is there, too.

Bit late to the party but I just watched the recent performances of Riding on the Wind and Between the Hammer and the Anvil and was pretty surprised to see even Richie doesn't seem very animated on-stage now, I assume he's having to take it easy after his heart problems. Going into the Hall of Fame performance I'm now expecting KK to be the only one with any stage presence.
