Re: Judas Priest going to a 4 piece was all Rob's bonehead idea
All this stuff about how he thought it would be more powerful is BS. They much more likely thought it would be a great way of cutting costs and clearly had no idea how strongly fans felt about Judas Priest having 2 guitars.... With KK out of the band, there's more money in Rob's and Glenn's pockets...

He didn't have any writing credits and they had to bring Kulick in to finish a couple of the songs so I wonder how instrumental he really was in the recording of that album.

Re: Tribute Bands
I just got back from seeing Brit Floyd, a Pink Floyd tribute band that tours and puts on a big production. The show was phenomenal. They are great musicians, they sound just like Pink Floyd, and they have the visuals to match. This is the first tribute band I have seen, and it made me wonder what o...

Re: Band lineups you wish would have gone on for longer
I don't think Ace would have done well in the early/mid 80's with KISS with these guys being in vogue at the time Van Halen Lee Rhoads Demartini to a degree although never known as a shredder among many others like Gillis.... I didn't mind Vinnie free styling on Ace's solos and riffs but I get why ...

Re: Band lineups you wish would have gone on for longer
Jungle was only popular on airplay (for two weeks) because people remembered who KISS were after the reunion. Was so odd releasing that after the reunion tour. "Jungle" received airplay because it's a good song and people liked it. Mercury wanted to recoup the advance that they gave to Pa...

Sorry for the delayed response as sometimes I don't come here for a week or so. Although I see what you are saying in terms of him not being a fan I do believe he was capable of playing in the style of Vinnie and the other fast players of that era which Gene and Paul were seeking. KISS to me anyway...

Re: Band lineups you wish would have gone on for longer
IMO, shredding is not KISS-like at all. KISS needed a rock guitarist, not a heavy metal guitarist. They were never a metal band, although some of their songs are metal or at least metal-ish. When Mark was fired, Bruce was the guy, because he could be flashy, but that wasn't the only thing in his ba...
